CHAPTER 305 WILL YOU FORGIVE HIM?

"Huh?" Yvonne was slightly taken aback. "Why are you asking me this out of the blue?"

Henry lowered his gaze. "It's just a random question."

"I see." Yvonne nodded. Although she believed him, she was still a little amused. "That's a rather strange question.”

"So what's your answer?” Henry looked up at her.

Yvonne bit her thumb. "It depends on the situation. You were asking if my current family isn't my real family, and if my real family is my enemy? Then that depends on how deep the hatred is. If...”

"If what?" Henry gripped the glass tightly.

Yvonne smiled, "If we're talking about how they're like my parents who are biased toward their son and only treat me like an ATM, then I won't deny them. At best, it'll just remain as a cold relationship."

"What if they're like Dominic Conrad, who kidnapped you, took your bone marrow, and killed your child?” A complicated emotion flashed across Henry’s eyes when he asked the question.

Yvonne frowned. "Why do you have to offer that example?" "Just answer me!" Henry raised his voice.

Yvonne was stunned, not understanding why he had such a big reaction. Even so, she still answered truthfully, "No."

"Why?" Henry pressed his lips tighter.

Yvonne’s expression was cold and even disgusted. "I can't accept a father who treats me that way. Rather than a family, a person like him is no different than the worst enemy. No father will bear to commit such viciousness against his own daughter."

Henry fell silent and dropped his head slightly. Half of his face was hidden behind his bangs, making it difficult to see the expression on his face at this very moment.

A few seconds later, he spoke up again. "What if all of that was done without knowing that you were his daughter? Would you..."

"Then there's even less of a reason to accept him." Yvonne interrupted him. "Doing such a vicious act toward his daughter when he didn't know that she was his own daughter isn't a reason to ask for forgiveness. Besides, why didn't he know she was his daughter? Did he abandon her when she was just a baby?"

Henry raised his eyebrow slightly.

He didn't know if Dominic had abandoned her when she was a baby.

The truth was still waiting to be uncovered.

Yvonne curled her lips at Henry's silence. "No matter how you look at it, the sin of abandoning his child on top of his wrongdoings makes people like Dominic Conrad a man that isn't worthy of forgiveness and recognition."

"Is that so? I see your point now." Henry crossed his legs.

The main reason for asking these questions was to understand Yvonne's true opinion of Dominic before deciding if he should reveal her true identity.

It would seem like it was no longer necessary to tell her that.

Given her hatred toward Dominic, she might break down if she discovered that the man was her biological father.

"Henry, you're acting really strange today." Yvonne wrinkled her face as she stared at Henry strangely.

Henry twiddled his thumbs. "Which part?"

"Everything!" Yvonne straightened her back and proceeded to list them all out one by one. "First, you came back really early. Then you asked me a bunch of weird questions. Is there something on your mind?"

If he didn’t, why would he ask such absurd questions about Dominic being her biological father?

"Nothing really. Don't let that bother you. Enjoy your book, I'll be resting upstairs." Henry pinched the area between his eyebrows and stood up.

For a moment, Yvonne even felt pity for him when she saw the tired look on his face. "Alright, go ahead. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."

Henry hummed a response, then went upstairs.

Yvonne watched him leave and didn’t look away from that direction for a long time.

Sue teased her when she came in. "Madam, if you are this reluctant to part with sir, then why don’t you join him for a nap upstairs too?"

"Sue!" Yvonne shot a glare at her with a flushed face.

Sue laughed heartily at her reaction.

Yvonne shook her head in resignation. "That's not it at all, I just think he's acting strange today."

"Sir is indeed acting strange today," Sue nodded in agreement.

Yvonne stroked her chin. "Do you think he’s hiding something from me?"

"Do you think sir is only hiding only a few things from you?" Sue commented between laughter and tears.

Yvonne’s eyes twitched. "You have a point there..."

"Don't let it bother you, madam. Everyone has their own secrets. Just let him be. Besides, you can't force anything out of him either if he decides that he isn't going to tell you." Sue patted Yvonne's shoulder to comfort her.

Yvonne caressed the book in her hand. "I know. I usually won't force him if he doesn't want to tell me. But for some reason, the questions that he asked me today just bothered me."

"Why do you feel bothered? Don't tell me you really believe that Dominic Conrad might be your father just like sir asked?" Sue teased her.

Yvonne rubbed her temples. "If that is really the case, then I'd rather die. Alright, that's enough Sue, I’m going back to my book."

She picked up her book and waved it in front of the housekeeper.

Sue glanced at the pendulum clock in the corner." Alright, enjoy your book madam. I'll get back to the kitchen to cook some chicken noodle soup for you."

"Thanks," Yvonne nodded to her.

By evening, Sue was done preparing dinner. Content is © by .

When it was almost time for dinner, Yvonne put her book down and went upstairs to wake Henry up.

In the room, Henry was fast asleep.

Yvonne stood by the bed, lowered her head slightly, and was about to wake him up.

She reached out with her hand. But before she could even touch him, he suddenly snapped open his eyes, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her in hard.

After Yvonne screamed as Henry pulled her onto the bed. She rolled over and was pinned under him.

"Why are you here?” Henry stared at her.

Yvonne blinked. "It's seven, I came up to tell you that it's time for dinner."

Seven?

Henry frowned.

He was asleep for so long?

"Henry." Yvonne lifted her arms and shook his shoulders lightly. "Can you get off? You’re crushing m e."

Henry propped himself up slightly but made no attempt to get off her. "What did you call me just now?"

"Henry?” Yvonne blinked at him innocently.

The corners of Henry's lips curled up slightly. "Henry? Did you forget what I told you to call me?”

"Wh-What?” Yvonne was a little confused.

She really couldn't recall anything.

Henry grabbed her chin and growled, "Did you really forget how you addressed me in front of Jacqueline last time?"

Yvonne's eyes rolled around before they stopped and suddenly widened.

Looking at her reaction, the smirk on Henry's face grew wider. "You remember now?"

Yvonne averted her gaze and didn't say anything.

Henry turned her face back to him. "Look at me!"

Yvonne looked at him weakly.

"Say it out loud," Henry commanded her.

Yvonne moved her lips but couldn't make a sound.

Henry narrowed his eyes. "If you're not doing it, then don't even think about making me move."

"Are you threatening me?!" Yvonne shot him a glare.

Henry snorted and asked again, "I don't care how you want to put it as long as I achieve my goal. Are you saying it?"

Yvonne blushed and bit her lip. "H-H-Hu...bby..."

Although she had called him that before, she had only done it once.

Hence, she was still shy to let the intimate word roll off her tongue.

However, Henry wasn't very satisfied. He brought his handsome face closer to her and emphasized every word. "That's not going to work. Say it clearly."

Yvonne couldn't fight back against him, so she could only give it all she got. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before shouting, "Hubby! Are you satisfied now?"
