CHAPTER 291 RUNNING INTO LYNETTE
"Yes," Henry replied while pulling her to the exit.
Yvonne turned her head and waved to Shane with her other hand.
However, Henry hooked her away by her neck with his thick arm before she could even say goodbye." Don't mind him, let's go now."
Shane watched the two walk away as the smile on his face slowly faded and was finally replaced by a bitter smile.
He never thought that someone like him who had only been fascinated by the medical field would one day fall in love with someone else, much less a married woman.
He knew he should let go of this bitter love that was destined to be fruitless, yet he just couldn’t. It was really painful for him.
What if he could meet her much earlier, and even earlier than Henry did? Would he be the one who was with her now? Unfortunately, there was no such thing as what if...
"Treat her well, Henry. After all, she's someone that I want but can't have," Shane covered his face with one hand as he mumbled depressingly.
Of course, Henry was oblivious to all of this. He only felt a little itch at the tip of his nose and couldn’t help but rub it with his hand.
Yvonne noticed his action and stopped to ask him," What's wrong? Did you catch a cold?"
"I'm fine." Henry shook his head and didn't say much.
Yvonne just shrugged it off and continued walking.
After taking two steps, an unexpected voice suddenly rang out behind her. “Yvonne? Is that you?"
This voice...
Yvonne jolted and hurriedly flung away Henry’s hand. She turned around with panic written all over her face. "Lyn? Why are you here?"
"It's really you." Lynette came over quickly and stopped in front of her. "Didn't I tell you yesterday that my dad had an accident? I’m accompanying him in the hospital today. What about you? Are you feeling unwell? Why are you with Mr. Lancaster...?”
Speaking of this, Lynette stole a glance at Henry who had an extremely unpleasant expression on his face.
Henry was fuming at how Yvonne had suddenly flung his hand away.
He just couldn’t understand her attitude and intention of denying their relationship whenever they were around someone. 1 'Oh no, she caught us red-handed!' Yvonne secretly thought to herself when she heard Lynette’s question.
She was wondering if Lynette saw her holding hands with Henry just now.
"Umm... Mr. Lancaster is feeling a little under the weather and I happened to be here for a medical review. That's how we ended running into each other," Yvonne explained with guilt in her eyes. At the same time, she was also secretly tugging at Henry’s sleeve, warning him to not expose her lies.
Henry shot a cold glance and pressed his lips very tightly. Yvonne could tell that he was obviously upset, but was also greatly relieved that he didn't seem to have any intention of exposing her.
"Oh, I see. Are you guys done then?" Lynette nodded then asked.
"We're done and are just about to leave." Yvonne then waved at her. "Well then, Lyn, Mr. Lancaster and I will take our leave now. I'll visit Uncle another day."
"Okay, bye." Lynette hummed a response.
Yvonne quickly turned around and breathed a sigh of relief softly before deliberately speaking loudly, "Let's g o, Mr. Lancaster.”
Henry didn't say anything and just left ahead of them with a frosty face.
Yvonne clenched her palms helplessly at his reaction then hurried after him.
Lynette watched the two leave, feeling extremely puzzled.
The two of them didn't look like they just ran into each other in the hospital. They looked more like they had come together.
And if her eyes didn’t fail her, they seemed to be holding hands.
Would a man and woman normally hold hands? What was their relationship?
It was at this very moment that Lynette started feeling suspicious.
Outside the hospital, Yvonne finally caught up with the man walking ahead of her. "Henry...!” She shouted his name breathlessly.
The man stopped in front of his car but ignored her. H e took his car key out and pressed a button before opening the car door and got in.
Yvonne didn't tarry either. She opened the door and got in the passenger seat. "What the heck are you angry about?" she asked in confusion while putting on her seatbelt.
Henry’s grip on the steering wheel suddenly tightened as his eyes turned even colder.
She was asking him why he was angry?
She didn't even know what he was angry about?!
Henry laughed out of anger. "Yvonne Frey, why did you deny our relationship and tell her that we ran into each other at the hospital? Are you that embarrassed t
o admit that I'm your husband?"
Yvonne was stunned and couldn't recover for a long time. "No... why would you think that way?"
"Think? That's the message that your attitude is conveying.” Henry retorted with a sullen expression.
Yvonne bit her lip. "So you are upset because I didn't tell Lyn about our relationship?"
Henry snorted coldly and said nothing.
Knowing that she had hit a nail on the head, Yvonne lowered her head and sneered coldly. "Henry, you think you have the right to be upset about that?"
"What are you trying to say?" Henry knitted his eyebrows together.
Yvonne looked out the window with some unknown emotions in her eyes. "Back then, you were the one who told me not to talk about our relationship outside. Yet now you are blaming me for doing it..."
Henry's eyes widened slightly upon hearing that.
He recalled it now. He really did say that to her.
It was three years ago when he first said that. Content is © by .
He didn't expect that she would keep that in mind until now and had been silently upholding his words.
"I'm sorry." Henry removed one of his hands from the steering wheel and rested his forehead on his palm. "I forgot about that."
Yvonne's eyes flickered but she said nothing.
Henry looked at her from the side. "From now on, you don't need to keep these words in mind anymore. I took you to the last charity ball to disclose our relationship to the public. Everyone in the circle now basically knows that you are my wife."
"So?" Yvonne asked.
Henry peeled his hand off his forehead. "So you don't have to keep hiding our relationship anymore."
Yvonne fell silent for a few seconds. "So that means I can tell Lyn that we are married?”
Henry nodded and hummed in reply.
Yvonne chuckled softly. "Alright, but never mind. I'll just tell her next time when I get the chance to.
Knowing her, she would definitely be shocked by this.” i
"That's up to you.” The expression on Henry's face improved at her obedience. Even the coldness around him disappeared.
Yvonne turned her head back from the window. "Let’s go back, I'm a little hungry.”
"I'll send you back first then." Henry started the car and stepped on the gas pedal.
Yvonne blinked in confusion. "You're not coming back?”
"The pending documents on my office desk have piled up over the two days when I was abroad," Henry
explained to her.
Yvonne nodded in understanding. "I see."
And then she stopped talking.
Henry dropped her off at the villa and left right away.
Yvonne watched as his car left until it disappeared from her sight, then turned around and entered through the gate.
Sue poured her a glass of water. "Madam, how did your medical review go?"
"I'm doing better now," Yvonne took a sip of water then replied with a smile.
Sue was pleasantly surprised. "That's great! Just continue taking care of yourself and your condition will also continue improving."
"Yeah." Yvonne's expression then became serious when she suddenly recalled something. "Sue, how are things going on your side? Did you get Elliot's DNA?"
