Be Careful Around Henry
Henry Walker sized him up and said, “I’m just going to put this out there first. I will allow you to join my
company but only because of our past friendship. You won’t be getting the paycheck like other ordinary
employees, for sure. Moreover… If you were to commit any crime…”
“Don’t worry. I won’t.” Tobey said, “I’m very grateful you’re willing to help me, Mr. Walker. Why would I
implicate you? I understand that the medical scene in Substate is quite impressive, so I brought my
girlfriend here to seek medical attention. I won’t do anything that is against the law.”
At the mention of a girlfriend, Henry looked toward Deirdre and discovered that she had a gentle,
beautiful face. Even though she had a blank stare and was dressed plainly, her mannerisms and facial
features were extraordinary.
His jaw dropped, and he almost dropped the cigarette in his mouth to his pants.
“Deirdre? You’re Deirdre? We used to go to the same middle school too! Have you forgotten already?”
Deirdre nodded politely. In truth, she had already forgotten most of it.
Henry’s eyes were tainted with envy. “You’re awesome, Tobey. You managed to date the prettiest girl in
our high school. I tried to date you for three whole years, but you wouldn’t even take a glance at me
back in those years.” “It’s all in the past.”
Henry thought about something and nodded. “You’re right! It’s all in the past!”
He called over his assistant. “We have a two-bedroom employee hostel, right? Vacate one for my good
friend here and Miss McKinnon! I only want the best for them. We can treat anyone poorly, but not
these two high school friends of mine!”
The assistant made arrangements immediately while Henry got closer to express his care for Deirdre.
“Do you have a suitable job, Miss McKinnon? I’m in need of a secretary…”
Tobey shielded Deirdre behind him and assumed a gentle expression on his handsome face. He
sounded casual when he said, “Deirdre is facing some issues these days and has lost her sight, Mr.
Walker. I came here because of this reason, and I’m afraid she won’t be able to work.”
“Lost her sight?”
Henry was rendered speechless and felt pity for Deirdre. Meanwhile, the assistant came and informed
him that the residence was ready, so he did not continue to pester them anymore. He then sent Tobey
to clean up the place.
Later on, the assistant took them to the employee hostel and turned around to leave.
A moment later, Tobey said with a deep frown, “Deirdre, you should be careful around Henry.”
“Why?”
“I’m not too sure about him going after you in the past, but I saw his expression earlier…” Tobey did not
continue to elaborate, but he said, “He bears ill intentions, so you should stay at home to the best of
your abilities, so he won’t have the opportunity to interact with you. As for the door in the hostel, I’ll
change the lock secretly in the afternoon. This way, you’ll be safe by yourself in the hostel when I’m out
for work.”
Tobey’s thinking was very mature, and he had his own considerations, so Deirdre did not inquire
further. She was more worried that Brendan might come looking for them by tracing their steps.
It was fortunate that Brendan’s side quieted down after she was panic- stricken for a few days.
Perhaps Brendan assumed that Deirdre and Tobey did not have the capability to live in the western
Surstate. Thus, he could not be bothered to put up more than a few missing-person posters. No one
there could recognize Deirdre, and her life calmed down gradually.
Someone knocked on the door when Deirdre was getting some ingredients from the fridge to cook one
night. She heard Henry’s voice saying, “Open the door quickly, Miss McKinnon!”
Deirdre pretended not to hear, but Tobey’s voice was heard coming from the outside. He could not
articulate his words clearly, perhaps due to his drunken state. “Mr. Walker… Just send me to the door…
will be fine…” “How could I do that? You’re the pillar of our company, so I can only set my mind at ease
after seeing you enter the house with my own eyes!” Henry knocked on the door in an appreciative
employer’s manner.
“Miss McKinnon, are you aware? Tobey had one too many drinks. Come and help him to his room
quickly.”
