CHAPTER 335 JACQUELINE LEFT
Henry was startled and immediately frowned." Jacqueline went to the nursing home?"
"Yes."
"When did that happen?" Henry pursed his lips. This belongs to .
"In the afternoon," Yvonne replied.
Henry squeezed the tea cup in his hand. "What did she say to Grandpa?"
"Maybe you can ask Grandpa yourself. However, when I met her, she cursed Grandpa." Yvonne then reiterated the conversation she had with Jacqueline.
After Henry heard everything, his face turned gloomy and he smashed the teacup on the coffee table.
'Bang!'
The teacup was not placed properly and spilled on the table and all over the floor. His hands were also scalded by the hot tea.
Yvonne became anxious and she quickly removed Henry's hand from the table. "What're you doing? You burnt yourself and still left your hand on the table."
Henry clenched his fists and said nothing.
Yvonne glared and shouted, "Sue." "Yes, madam?" Sue came out of the kitchen.
Yvonne instructed, "Get me the first aid kit. Henry scalded his hands."
"What? Scalded?" Sue exclaimed.
Yvonne nodded.
Sue replied, "Yes, I'll go get it right away."
She hurried back to the kitchen to look for the first aid kit and when Yvonne got the kit, she immediately got a bandage and put it on Henry.
Henry looked at the bandage on the back of his hand and his eyes softened for a moment, but soon they returned cold.
He pulled his hand away from Yvonne's and took out his cell phone to call Frederick. He asked Frederick about what happened during the day.
Frederick did not try to hide from him and told him the details about what happened. After hearing that and what Yvonne said earlier, Henry was furious.
"Jacqueline! How dare she!" Henry clenched his jaw tightly, his eyes cold as ice.
Yvonne glanced at him. "Weren't these caused by your indulgence?"
Henry squinted his eyes. "Indulgence?"
"Yes, you know that the Conrad family and the Lancaster family are enemies, but you indulge Jacqueline and ignore it. If it were up to me, I'd lock her up so she won't be able to do anything. Dominic might even show up to save her," Yvonne said lightly.
Henry did not expect to hear those words from her, but he had to admit what she said was true.
If he had controlled Jacqueline from the very beginning, she wouldn't have had the opportunity to g o to the nursing home to provoke Grandpa, let alone cursing Grandpa to death.
"Got it. I'll think about what you said," Henry frowned.
Yvonne sighed, "Why do you even need to think about i t? Why can’t you just do it? Henry, what about Jacqueline are you concerned about?"
Henry looked down and said nothing.
Yvonne felt emotionally drained. She stood up and looked at him with conflicting emotions. "It's always the same cycle. Every time something happens, you never want to share. Is it that important to keep it a secret? I’m your wife, and I should share your burden with you, but you shut me out every time. Do you think this is fair to me?"
Henry's eyes flickered, but he still did not speak.
When Yvonne saw this, disappointment flashed across her eyes and she wanted to leave to go upstairs.
However, Henry suddenly grabbed her and pulled her back to the sofa. "Jacqueline once saved my mom."
"What?" Yvonne was stunned. "S-saved your...mom?"
She felt incredibly awkwardly saying the word, "mom."
After all, when she married into the Lancaster family, she had no mother-in-law, and she had never called Henry's mother "mom."
That was why she was so awkward when she said that.
Henry glanced at Yvonne. He did not react much to her saying "mom." He then looked away and said," Yes, it was a long time ago. My mother was still alive a t the time. She suffered because of what happened to Hayden. It took a toll on her and her heart was not well. One day, she almost fainted when she was out, and it was Jacqueline who found out and notified us."
"So because of this, you've never really treated Jacqueline..."
Henry nodded.
Yvonne burst out laughing, "I kept thinking about all the possible reasons, and it turned out to be this. Why did you keep it a secret for so long? Moreover, even if she saved her mother's life, it’s already been so many years and you’ve repaid her kindness. When she abandoned you three or four years ago, you no longer owe her anything, do you understand?"
Henry pursed his thin lips. "Maybe I was too paranoid."
"Grandpa's right." Yvonne poured herself a glass of water.
Henry looked at her, "What did Grandpa say?" "Grandpa said you're stubborn and don't know how to work around things," Yvonne replied.
Henry frowned but he trusted her completely.
He was just surprised to know that was what Grandpa thought about him.
Perhaps what Grandpa said was right-he did have some flaws in his character.
"I will let Joe help execute what you suggested earlier. " Henry was finally relieved.
"You..." Yvonne was surprised that he had figured it out so quickly.
"What's wrong?" Henry raised his gaze.
Yvonne shook her head. "It's nothing."
She was just happy he could figure it out.
"Okay." Henry raised his chin slightly. "I'm going to the study to make a call."
He then got up and went upstairs.
Yvonne picked up the remote control to turn on the T V. She was in a good mood and was laughing from time to time.
"Madam, why are you so happy?" Sue asked as she came out of the kitchen with a cup of hot milk. She saw that Yvonne was smiling so much her eyes were squinting.
Yvonne pointed to the TV. "This show is pretty good."
Sue looked towards the TV and her expression
seemed a little funny. "It's good?"
Wasn't it just another TV series?
Madam had never watched shows like this before.
"Yeah." Yvonne nodded. "The plot's not bad. The second female lead here is just like Jacqueline and I'm very happy to see that karma bit her in the butt." i
Sue did not know to laugh or cry, "I see. Enjoy watching the series, madam. TH bring sir some tea."
"I'll go." Yvonne took the initiative to help Sue out.
Sue had no objections and gave her the tray.
Yvonne carried the tray upstairs and when she was standing outside Henry's study, she heard a commotion inside.
What was going on?
Yvonne was startled. She put the tray on the ground, raised her hand, and knocked on the door. "Henry, what's the matter?"
Henry did not respond.
Yvonne was worried so she opened the door and went in without his approval.
As she entered the room, she saw Henry standing in front of the French windows smoking with his back facing her.
Yvonne felt like tearing up seeing his lonely figure, and she slowed down her footsteps subconsciously.
She walked gently towards him and hugged him from behind. She buried her face in his broad back and asked, "What's going on?"
Henry knew that she was here but did not turn around. He stared at the dim yellow street light outside the French window with a gloomy gaze." Jacqueline left."
"What?" Yvonne raised her head and her eyes were wide with shock. "She left?"
Henry said, "I asked Joe to send someone over and take her to my apartment to lock her up, but when they got there, they found out that Jacqueline had already moved out in the afternoon."
"How could this happen?" Yvonne trembled.
She moved away in the afternoon.
Did Jacqueline have the ability to tell the future? How did she know that Henry was going to send someone over to get her tonight?
How could this be!
