CHAPTER 347 LYNETTE SURRENDERED
Yvonne didn't answer.
The old man glared at Henry. "I told you not to be so impulsive and stubborn, but you refuse to listen and you thought that Yvonne poisoned me. You even slapped her when you got home. What a terrible man!"
Henry pursed his thin lips. "I know I was wrong."
"Hmph! You know nothing. If you do, you wouldn't think that it was Yvonne. As her husband, if you don't even trust your wife, who else will you trust?" The old man scolded while pointing at him, "Just believe whatever you want. One day, you’ll pay for the price of being so arrogant."
Henry's eyes flickered, but he kept quiet.
The old man withdrew his gaze. "I don't know who you got your temper from, but you're making this old man worried."
Henry turned his face away and pretended that he didn’t hear him.
The old man was so angry when he saw him behaving this way. "Girl."
He called Yvonne.
Yvonne responded quickly, "Yes, Grandpa?" "Did he apologize to you?" The old man pouted his lips
at Henry.
Yvonne looked at Henry, who happened to look over at the same time.
She met his deep eyes abruptly and her heart trembled. She nodded and answered, "Yes, he did." 1
"Really?" The old man narrowed his eyes as he didn't believe it.
Yvonne recalled Henry's apologetic tone at that time and hummed in confirmation, "He really did apologize."
"Really?" The old man was still a little skeptical. Then, he waved to Henry. "Come here."
Henry felt something wasn't right, but he still walked over.
The old man pointed at Yvonne. "You. Apologize to Yvonne again. I want to hear it with my own ears."
Henry didn't expect that the old man would ask him t o do this. His face turned sour all of a sudden.
Yvonne noticed that and quickly waved her hand. " Grandpa, let's forget it. He's apologized to me."
"That's not good enough. I know him very well. He values his ego more than anything else. His apologies might not even be sincere. Hurry up! What are you doing? Apologize quickly. Are you trying to piss me off?" the old man stared and yelled at Henry, i
Henry couldn't defy him. Therefore, he apologized to
Yvonne.
Yvonne quickly replied that it was fine. 1
Upon seeing this, the old man was finally satisfied. He touched his beard and chuckled, "This is how it should be. Alright, you should all leave now. I need to get some rest."
He ordered them to go back.
Yvonne tucked him in. "Get some rest, Grandpa. We'll visit you again tomorrow."
"Off you go." The old man waved his hand.
Yvonne nodded at Frederick who was at the side and left the ward with Henry.
Yvonne stood beside Henry and asked, "Where are you going after this? Back to the office?"
Henry's face turned gloomy. "Heading to The Stellar Hotel."
Yvonne got anxious. "Are you going to do something t o Lynette?"
Henry tightened his lips and didn't answer.
Yvonne didn't know what he meant and didn't dare to ask any further. She silently left the nursing home with him and headed to The Stellar Hotel.
Upon arriving at Lynette's suite, the two bodyguards who guarded the door saluted the two and said, "Miss Frey, she’s still inside."
"That's good. No one else came by, right?" Yvonne asked.
The bodyguards looked at each other and shook their heads. "No."
"I see, thank you." Yvonne thanked the two bodyguards and turned to look at the man next to him. "Henry, wait for me here. Let me go in and have a look."
Henry stared deeply at her as if he was trying to read her expression. After a while, he retracted his gaze and nodded. "Okay."
Yvonne released a sigh of relief and reached out to hold the door handle.
The suite was dark and curtains were closed tightly, creating a depressive atmosphere.
Yvonne couldn't see where Lynette was. She frowned slightly, then switched on the light.
The bright light illuminated everything in the room and also showed where Lynette was.
She was sitting on the bed with her legs bent. She hugged her legs tightly while curling up into a ball, looking pitiful.
Yvonne couldn't help but sigh after seeing Lynette like this. "Why do you have to do this?"
"You came?" Lynette raised her head and looked at
Yvonne blankly. "Are you here to laugh at me?"
Hearing this, Yvonne pursed her lips displeasingly, Laugh? Why should I come to laugh at you? Do you know that you're a joke now?"
Lynette sneered, "Yes, I'm a joke. In order to not disgust you, you should leave."
"I’ll leave, but not now." Yvonne pulled a chair and sat down face to face her. "I'm here to ask if you have figured to surrender yourself based on our conversation yesterday?" holds this content.
"Didn't you say that you wouldn't care about me yesterday? You said why would you bother to wake a person who pretends to be asleep? Now you're asking me again. Don't you think that you're wasting your efforts?" Lynette mocked.
Yvonne's eyes flickered. "Yes, I don't really want to care about you, but I’m soft-hearted, so you..."
"Yvonne, don't persuade me anymore." Lynette's attitude softened and she was no longer as prickly. " I’ve made myself clear. I can't go to jail. My family will be doomed if I go to jail.”
"So you still pin your hopes on Jacqueline?" Yvonne looked at her disappointingly.
There was a glimmer of hope in Lynette's eyes. "I contacted her yesterday and she said she'll rescue me."
"Stupid. Will she really come for you? Look at this." Yvonne took out a document from her bag. Then, she threw it at Lynette the same way Henry did to her this
morning.
Lynette caught the document which was dropping blindly. "What's this?"
"This is your parent's current situation. You betrayed me for them, but look at what they’re going through now. Did your betrayal give you the result you wanted? " Yvonne sneered at her.
After hearing these things, Lynette suddenly felt uneasy and anxious. She quickly opened the documents and started reading it.
When she finished, her hands couldn't stop trembling and her face was extremely pale. "No... This can't be... My parents cannot be like this. They went abroad for medical treatment. How could they end up stranded at the embassy? Yvonne, you're lying to me, right? You're lying to me!"
She staggered out of the bed probably because she kept her knees bent for too long. After getting out of bed, she couldn't stand still. She stumbled in front of Yvonne, then fell to the ground.
"Yvonne, this document is fake. Please tell me that it’s fake. You're lying to me. Lying to me!" Lynette cried sadly while holding the document.
Yvonne sympathized with her but her face was expressionless. "I lied? Why should I lie? How does it benefit me?"
"Because you want me to go to jail, so you are lying to me!" Lynette shouted.
Yvonne laughed by herself. "Ever since our friendship was ruined, you only see the bad in me. Yes, I do want you to go to jail, but don't forget that Henry Lancaster i s my man. He has thousands of ways to send you to jail. So, why do we have to lie to you this way?"
