CHAPTER 189 BRING HER BACK

It was Elliot’s turn to be startled. He stretched his neck outwards to look inside the train station one more time, and then replied, "Are you joking Mr. Lancaster? You're not divorced?"

"When have I said I wanted to get a divorce?" Henry’s voice was as cold as ice.

Elliot rubbed his nose. "That's true, you did not mention it, but Yvonne did. When she mentioned it to me last time, I thought she was just joking around. I didn't expect her to actually do it. That means you're i n a one-sided divorce now, Mr. Lancaster."

Elliot gloated.

Henry’s eyes squinted dangerously. "What did you say? I've been divorced?"

What kind of ridiculous joke was this?

Elliot raised his eyebrows. "So you really don't know about it, Mr. Lancaster. Yvonne left your villa half an hour ago, I even drove her to the station and she told m e about your divorce, and hence I'm calling you on purpose to congratulate you on obtaining your freedom."

She left the villa half an hour ago?

Henry's pupils dilated as he heard this.

He did not doubt Elliot’s words because he knew all too well that Elliot did not have any reason to use this as a laughingstock. The news was all over the internet and he didn't have to lie about it. i

Thus, Elliot was speaking the truth. Yvonne had really left the Lancasters.

Henry’s heart began to beat rapidly. He endured the pain in his back and got out of bed, immediately hanging up Elliot's phone call and dialing Yvonne’s number.

But only the cold answering machine picked up the call. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service, please try again later..."

Not in service?

Henry clenched his phone, his face dark and the atmosphere around him seemed to grow colder.

Yvonne had actually canceled her phone line!

"Sue!" shouted Henry angrily.

Sue was coincidentally wiping the banister out by the passageway. She put down her cloth and walked to his room when she heard him shouting. "You're awake sir."

"Where's Yvonne?" asked Henry, his eyes red in anger.

Sue nervously replied, "Madam is..."

"Tell me!" growled Henry impatiently.

Sue shirked and quickly replied, "Madam has left."

"Where has she gone?" said Henry as he clenched his fist.

Sue steeled her heart and replied, "Madam has left the Lancasters. She’s already divorced you, so naturally, there is no need for her to live here anymore. That’s why she left."

"Divorce?" Henry clenched his fist so tight he was shivering, his expression filled with rage. "How dare she divorce me without my consent?"

"Yes, you did not agree to the divorce sir, but the master has agreed to it. Do you remember when madam went to Lancaster residence two days ago? She went to seek consent from the master,"

Sue replied.

Henry's face grew pale instantly. "She went to see Grandpa?"

"Yes, I only found out right before madam left. I thought she only went to the Lancaster residence to visit the master. Who knew she intended to do that?" sighed Sue silently.

Henry grew speechless. His lips were tightly pursed, his face stiff and he was in an unspeakable rage.

The rage was so great, his heartbeat sped up until he couldn't breathe properly and his heart began to throb in pain.

That woman had actually left?

Knowing that he wouldn't agree to the divorce, she actually went to Grandpa to get his approval!

Did she really want to leave him so much? Didn't she say she loved him? Why would she leave if she loved him then!

The more he thought about it, the more uncontrollable he became. His emotions were very dynamic.

This was the first time Sue had seen him so out of control. She was shocked as well. "Sir, are you alright?"

"Why?" said Henry, still tightly clenching his fist.

Sue was startled. "What do you mean why?"

"Why didn't you stop her? Why didn’t you wake me u p!" shouted Henry.

Sue could only reply reluctantly. "Sir, I could not have stopped her. You may think madam is soft and mellow all the time, but she is actually stubborn like you sir. Once she has decided on something, there is nothing that can stop her. Moreover, this is your divorce. Who am I to comment on it? As for waking you up..." Sue fell silent for a while before continuing," Madam has said that if you were to wake up, she would not be able to leave. In addition, you were on medication, so there was no guarantee that you would be able to wake up as well."

"So you listened to her instructions and decided not to wake me up, right?" Henry leered at her.

Sue turned her head. "You mustn't blame me sir, even i f I had been able to wake you up, you might've been able to stop madam from leaving the villa, but you wouldn’t be able to stop her from getting a divorce. What's done is done sir, you should just accept it, sir."

Saying this, Sue left right away.

Henry’s lips curled into an arch. "Accept it?"

How could he accept it?

Three years ago, he was the last to find out that the old man had chosen Yvonne as his wife.

Now, he was once again the last to find out that Yvonne was leaving the Lancasters.

She always said that he did not treat her as his wife, but did she ever treat him as her husband in doing all this? 2

"Joe!" Henry dialed Joe's number.

Joe was in a meeting when his phone rang and he immediately left the boardroom to answer the call politely. "How can I help you, Mr. Lancaster?"

"Get someone to every train station there is and bring Yvonne back to me!" ordered Henry.

Joe was puzzled, "Sir, has something happened to madam?"

"None of your business. Just do as you’re told, and don’t disappoint me," said Henry coldly.

Joe calmly replied, "Don’t worry Mr. Lancaster, I will b e sure to bring madam back safely."

"Alright." Content is © by .

After the phone call, Henry laid down on his bed and twitched his eyebrows, still unable to calm himself.

He couldn’t understand how Yvonne could insist on getting a divorce and leave him without any considerations, i

Even if she left, there was no need for her to cancel her phone line. She obviously didn't want anyone to contact her.

Knock knock knock. Someone was knocking on the door suddenly.

Henry turned to look at the entrance. "Come in."

Sue opened the door, "Sir, the master is here."

"Grandpa?” Henry's eyes grew dark.

Sue nodded. "The master has requested you to go downstairs to discuss something about madam."

Henry pursed his lips. "I understand."

He opened up his quilt, enduring the pain in his back t o get out of bed, and followed Sue downstairs.

Downstairs, the old man was sitting on the sofa and drinking tea. Frederick was standing beside him to serve him.

Henry walked over and immediately asked, "Grandpa, why did you agree to Yvonne’s request?"

The old man calmly put down his teacup. "Why?

Shouldn't you be asking yourself why?" "Myself?" Henry arched an eyebrow.

The old man put both his hands on his cane and looked at him in contempt. "After all you’ve done to her, it’s only normal for Yvonne to ask for a divorce and my approval was also justified."

"But this is my wedding." Henry clenched both his fists. "Three years ago, you asked me to marry her per your orders. Should I divorce her when you order me now?" i

"Sir, it wasn’t the master who is asking you to divorce, it is madam herself. Master has also said that the reason why madam is asking for a divorce is that you hurt her so deeply. You can’t blame the master for this," said Frederick.

Henry clenched his teeth. "I know, but Grandpa, I don't have the intention of divorcing her."

"Why would you do such a cruel thing to her if you do not want to divorce her?" asked the old man as he coldly looked at him.
