Chapter 168 It Never Rains But It Pours!
At this moment, she was standing on one foot and leaning against a tree.
Her efforts to go back by herself were in vain.
It just so happened Henry, who was searching for Nova, witnessed the scene and was dazzled by the
lovely temper shown on Nova’s face.
During their three years of marriage, Nova used to be a wife who perform her wifely duties perfectly but
her side of vigor was known by Henry and he had no idea she is bursting with vitality either.
He never saw an array of emotions displayed on her face so vividly.
He knew that Nova at this moment was totally different than she had been, she was really fresh and
invigorating.
Sensing someone’s gaze, Nova lifted her eyes expectantly. She got someone to help!
However…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn’t bargain that the gaze was from Henry, who looked at her as if she was a clown.
Nova’s beautiful eyes were clouded.
It never rains but it pours! Not him again?
One look on Henry’s broadened lips told that Nova’s reaction set Henry off laughing.
He approached her step by step. “Nova, I will bring you back if you beg of me.”
Nova’s face was purple with rage. “You’re welcome to go!”
Henry’s face darkened at her words.
Nova looked ahead and took a deep breath.
No big deal, she could walk back with a single foot! She could make it!
Holding the tree and looking at the lawn, Nova finally summoned up her courage to make a step ahead.
But…
It was almost impossible to walk with a broken sky–high heel.
As Nova was making her step forward, she lost her balance and tilted forward!
And the tree now was beyond her reach since she had moved a little bit.
Nova paled with fear and in a panic, she could not but stretch out her hands so as to prop herself up.
However…
Before she fell heavily to the ground Henry swept her up into his arms. She was more flustered
now!
She would rather fall on the ground than be taken in his arms!
Then Henry uttered in a sullen tone. “Why did you pull a stunt like that if you can’t walk by
yourself?”
Nova was truly helpless.
If it wasn’t for the fact that she was scared of bugs she didn’t have to bother him?!
She didn’t dare to speak it out due to embarrassment but straightened herself up. “Let go of me, I’m able

“Are you sure?” Henry contradicted her with a teasing smile. “Ok, I’ll you go. Just show me how you walk
on your own!”
Henry released her waist the instant that he said his last word. Without the support of Henry’s arms,
Nova lost her balance again and was going to fall sideways.
Nova gave up.
She didn’t want to get in physical contact with Henry once more so she determined to let herself fall.
At that very instant, Henry threw his arms around her waist tightly.
Nova went white as a sheet and she snapped, “Are you kidding me, Henry?”
Henry just snorted, “You can’t walk back without me!”
Nova’s anger was ignited by his words. “You may rest assured that I’ll do whatever it takes to get
back! Leave me alone!”
Henry was absolutely livid about it and he even wished to throw her away now.
But he made an effort to compose himself. “Nova, you’d better not provoke me again before I’m
still patient with you! If it wasn’t for grandma, how could I come out again to help you?!”
