CHAPTER 334 CURSE THE OLD MAN

"Aren't you going to ask me why I'm here?" Jacqueline stepped forward and walked towards Yvonne, but did not dare to get too close to her as she stopped a few steps away from her.

When Yvonne saw her actions, she looked at her with contempt. "Are you afraid of me?"

Jacqueline's expression seemed a little awkward." Who...who's afraid of you?"

"Then why are you standing so far away?" The corner o f Yvonne's lips curled up.

Jacqueline stared at her. "I just don't want to get too close to a crazy woman like you!"

"Oh, is that so?" Yvonne tucked her hair behind her ears and said mockingly, "But why do I feel like you're lying? You're afraid of me because I put you in your place at the Fashion Pavilion last time, right?"

"Yvonne, can you just shut up?" As soon as Jacqueline heard the words 'Fashion Pavilion,' she was immediately reminded of the shame she felt last time and her face distorted with anger.

Yvonne was secretly happy when she saw her losing i t. "No, but I admire your courage for having the nerve t o stop me now. Aren't you afraid that I'm going to do something to you?"

While speaking, Yvonne pretended to raise her arm.

When Jacqueline saw that, she flinched out of reflex and shouted, "Don't come over!"

"I won't," Yvonne let down her hand and laughed at her mockingly.

Jacqueline realized that she had been tricked when she saw her laughing. Her face flushed with anger and she was about to explode. "Ahhh! Yvonne!"

"What?" Yvonne covered her ears in disgust.

Jacqueline breathed heavily and clenched her fists tightly, but she quickly took a deep breath to calm herself down and said with a grin, "Yvonne, you can b e arrogant all you want but you'll be crying in the future."

Her words made Yvonne frown. "Really? It sounds like you're plotting something."

Jacqueline's eyes flickered. "Want to take a guess?"

"Sorry, but I don't want to. Bring it on if you have any plans and tricks. I'll take them one after another. As for the reason why you came here, Grandpa has already told me. Henry's never going to marry you." Yvonne looked at her coldly. 1

Jacqueline flipped her wig and said, "What makes you so sure that it's impossible? Don't forget, you personally heard from Henry yesterday..." "What makes you think everything he said was true?"

Yvonne interrupted her.

Jacqueline squinted her eyes. "I don't care if what he said is true or false. He made the promise anyway so h e must marry me."

"What a joke!" Yvonne pursed her lips mockingly." Henry only said that he'll consider it, but he never promised you. Even if he agreed, he won't be able to get it through Grandpa. Grandpa won't accept you as his granddaughter."

"Then what if that old thing dies?" Jacqueline said.

Yvonne's eyes darkened as she heard Jacqueline's question that was beyond belief. "What did you just say?"

"I said, if the old thing dies, no one is going to stop me, right? I know that the old thing doesn't like me, so I came here to piss him off today. I wanted to piss him off for good but the old man's heart is

surprisingly strong and he didn't faint," Jacqueline said grudgingly.

Yvonne's eyes were red and she could not stand listening to her anymore. She immediately slapped her.

With a snap, Jacqueline got slapped and fell on the ground. She was in a daze.

Yvonne stood in front of her while staring at her condescendingly. "Your mouth is as vicious as your heart, but don’t you dare to curse Grandpa!"

Jacqueline yelled bitterly as she covered her face,"

What about the curse? If it wasn't for that old thing, I would’ve been with Henry a long time ago. You wouldn't even stand a chance. Is it wrong that I want him to die?"

"You really are crazy!" Yvonne shook her head in disbelief. "You blame Grandpa for all this. You think all of this is Grandpa's fault. Haven't you ever thought about yourself? If your heart was as beautiful as your face, do you think Grandpa would oppose you being with Henry?" This belongs to .

Jacqueline did not like what she heard, but just when she was about to raise a rebuttal, Yvonne went on, ' Also, I can't figure it out. You obviously don't love Henry, but you want to tie him down and marry him because of your ridiculous possessiveness? Does Liam know?"

When Jacqueline heard her mention Liam, she seemed agitated. She raised her head and glared at her. "This has nothing to do with you, and you know nothing!"

She really did not love Henry. Other than being possessive, there was another important reason why she wanted to tie Henry down, which was for the assets!

Although she was the only daughter of the Conrad family, she had always known that her father did not really want her to inherit the Conrad family. He still wanted to have a son and even after all

these years of not having one, she still felt insecure deep in her heart, so she must plan for herself by getting married into a family more influential than the Conrads.

Her father might let her inherit the Conrad family as her dowry if she did this. Therefore, not only would she be able to get all the assets of the Conrad family, but she'd also be able to escape from the status of the nouveau riche daughter and actually become the lady of a wealthy family. Only Henry could give her all these things that Liam could not.

She did love Liam, but she never thought about marrying him. The only person she wanted to marry from the very beginning was Henry.

Yvonne looked at Jacqueline's unpredictable crazy face for a while. There was a hint of disgust in her eyes. "I know nothing indeed, but I know that you're messing around with someone else’s husband, and you’re shameless! Utterly disgusting!"

"Yes I'm shameless, but what about it?" Jacqueline stumbled as she got up. "It's every man for himself, and as long as I want it, I must get it no matter what. S o Yvonne, remember this, Henry belongs to me and only me!"

"Then you can just give it a rest. He'll never be yours," Yvonne rebutted.

Jacqueline gave her an evil smile. "Really? Let’s just wait and see. I will not only make you feel the pain of betrayal, but I'll also make you suffer like how you did when you lost your child."

She then turned around and left.

Yvonne lips puckered as she looked at Jacqueline's back, and her heart was troubled.

She wanted to get Jacqueline back and ask her what she wanted to do, but her rationality held her back. 2

This was a nursing home, but it was not an ordinary nursing home. Those who were here to recover and heal were all people of higher status. She could not let them see this as it would embarrass the Lancaster family and some might tell the old man.

Moreover, she just slapped Jacqueline and she already felt more relieved. Henry could deal with Jacqueline about her cursing the old man. She believed that Henry would not just let it slide.

Yvonne let out a long sigh after thinking about it and walked towards the car.

In the evening, Henry came back but he was frowning as if something was bothering him.

Yvonne poured him a cup of tea. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Henry took a sip of tea. "How's Grandpa doing today?"

"Not bad, his complexion looks better now," Yvonne replied.

Henry's furrowed brows relaxed a little. "That's good t 0 know. Thank you for your hard work." "It's nothing." Yvonne waved her hand and said embarrassingly, "I didn't help much with Grandpa-he has Frederick and the medical staff. I just read him the newspaper. It wasn't hard at all-you were the one who was too busy to even see Grandpa so you're the one who's working hard."

When Henry heard her, he chuckled slightly, "I’ll go tomorrow."

"Well, you must be very happy to see Grandpa." Yvonne nodded but her face suddenly became serious. "By the way, Jacqueline went to the nursing home to see Grandpa today-did you know that?"
