CHAPTER 323 HENRY’S SURPRISE

"The official website of the Lancaster Group...ah, I found it." Yvonne saw the web page pop out and found the official website of Henry's group and clicked in. The moment she entered the page, an official announcement popped out.

Yvonne glanced at it and was immediately intrigued b y the title of this article.

This was because the title of the article was: Shocking! The President of the Lancaster Group is actually married.

"This is the surprise he gave me?" Yvonne looked at Sue blankly, and she felt very uneasy.

If this was the surprise Henry was talking about, then she felt disappointment instead of joy. She just felt surprised because everything was going so well, but her marriage to him was exposed in such a way.

"Madam, click on it and take a look," Sue suggested.

Yvonne bit her lip and replied obediently, "Okay."

She took a deep breath to calm herself down first before reaching out her finger to click on the subject. Then she read the article.

The article was not long-it was probably only a few hundred words and Yvonne quickly read through it.

After reading it, her expression seemed complicated.

What the hell is he trying to do?"

His sudden revelation had left her unprepared.

Sue smiled, "If you want to know what your husband's going to do, just call and ask."

"Call him?"

"Of course, how will you know if you don’t ask?" Sue encouraged her. This belongs to .

Yvonne hesitated for a while, nodded, and dialed Henry's number.

The call quickly connected and Henry's deep voice could be heard. "You're awake?"

"Yeah," Yvonne responded.

"I asked Sue to pass you a message. Have you received it?" Henry asked.

Yvonne held her phone tighter, "I have and that's why I'm calling you to find out what’s going on. Why did you suddenly expose our marriage?"

"A reporter at the business alliance meeting last night took a picture of us. The media called the company in the morning, hoping that I would allow them to publish the news of my marriage."

"So you actually agreed?" Yvonne was shocked.

Henry nodded slightly, "Yes, but I asked them not to post any photos or expose too much of your information."

"Why is that?" Yvonne was puzzled.

Henry squeezed the bridge of his nose. "In order to protect you. You know the situation of the Lancaster family now anyway. Protecting your information would in turn protect you."

"So that's why," Yvonne smiled in relief, her heart moved by the sweet gesture.

No wonder the article only mentioned her name, and i t was because of that.

"When everything’s finally resolved, I'll hold a press conference and formally introduce you," Henry added, in case Yvonne overthought it too much.

Yvonne smiled, "It doesn't matter, and this is actually good enough. However, I don't understand- why did you suddenly agree to reveal it?"

He had never wanted to announce to the public that h e was married, and it was only during the last charity ball that he officially introduced her to his circle. 1

At the time, only people in the circle knew, but this time it was different. This time it was revealed to the public. It might even affect the company's stock market.

"It's not sudden." Henry grumbled and replied, "I’ve had this idea for a while now, but I just hadn't found the right time. This time the media happened to crash into it so I decided to just go with the flow. It should've been made public three years ago anyway, so I'm sorry

for letting you down for the past three years."

His apology made Yvonne feel a lump in her throat. Her eyes were red, and she was dazed but happy.

He finally understood what she had been through in the past three years and even apologized to her. She was really happy. She even felt that his cold and indifferent attitude towards her over the past three years meant nothing at this moment.

Yvonne thought about it and sniffled as she said in a choked voice, "You didn't let me down..."

Henry could tell that she was telling the truth and he chuckled softly.

Yvonne pouted, "What’re you laughing at?"

"Nothing, so do you like this surprise?" he asked.

Yvonne nodded her head shyly. "Yeah, I do.”

"That’s great. I have a contract with the Smith family that we have to discuss in detail, got to go."

"Okay," Yvonne answered.

When the call ended, she took the phone off her ears. Her movements were slow and lengthy-it seemed like she was reluctant to say goodbye.

"Madam, what did your husband say that made you blush like this?" Sue teased her.

"It's a secret." Yvonne stuck her tongue out at her and got out of bed to go to the bathroom.

Sue looked at Yvonne's back and her aged face seemed a little confused. But soon she snapped out of her daze and shook her head.

"Fine, it’s a secret. But seeing madam like this, sir must’ve done the right thing by giving her this surprise," Sue mumbled and left the room.

In the evening, Henry called and said that he was going to the old house tonight and he would not go back to the villa.

Yvonne did not know why he was going back to the old house and she did not ask either. However, she did not know why she felt so anxious and worried to the point that she was distracted during dinner.

Her anxiety went on until midnight and it did not seem to subside at all. Instead, it became more and more intense that she could not even sleep.

Yvonne ended up kicking the quilt off her body and sat up on the bed. After she calmed herself down, she leaned forward and turned on the light.

The bright light instantly illuminated the entire room. She exhaled and reached out for her cell phone beside the bed.

"It's only two o'clock?" Yvonne was a little surprised when she looked at the time on the phone.

She tossed and turned in bed but could not sleep at all. She had the feeling that a long time had passed so she did not expect it to be only two in the morning.

As they said, time would pass slower when one was clouded with thoughts?

As she thought about it, she could not help scrunching her short hair irritably into a mess before putting her hands down.

After that, she used both hands and found Henry's number. She wanted to call him to ask if something had happened at his old house.

But then again when she was finally ready to call, her finger paused on the dial button and she could not bring herself to tap on it.

It was late already. If there was nothing wrong at the old house and he had fallen asleep, wouldn't she wake him up?

Also, she had not forgotten that he was grumpy when being woken up.

'Should I make a call now?’ she thought to herself. It had become Yvonne’s biggest problem. After going back and forth over half an hour, she still did not make the call. In the end, she simply threw the phone and decided not to make the call. She would call tomorrow morning instead.

If so, she would not have to worry about waking him u p, and if it would agitate him when he woke up.

Yvonne turned off the light and lay back down after she made the decision.

The next day, she got up early and when she got ready and went downstairs, she saw Sue rush out of the kitchen. "Madam, bad news!"

"What's the matter?" Yvonne stood on the stairs with a blank expression while holding on to the railing and looked at her anxiously.

"It's about Master..."

"Grandpa?"

Sue nodded sharply. "Master fainted last night."

"What?" Yvonne's expression changed drastically and her voice became sharp.

She went a few steps down the stairs and stopped in front of Sue. She grabbed Sue by the shoulder and asked eagerly, "Sue, is it true? How did you know?"

"Sir just called and asked me to tell you when you woke up," Sue replied.

Yvonne’s body quivered. "How could this happen?

How's Grandpa doing now?"
