CHAPTER 353 HENRY’S PHONE

Joe nodded uncertainly. "I suppose so."

"How could this be!" Yvonne pouted.

They finally found Jacqueline's whereabouts, but they still could not find Dominic. This felt like fishing with a long line, only to end up with a small fish and letting the big fish escape.

She felt unsettled.

Seeing the displeasure in Yvonne's heart, Henry pursed his thin lips and got up. "It's not easy to find Dominic. We’ll just start with Jacqueline, and I’ll go there myself."

"What?" Yvonne also got up. "Are you going to see Jacqueline by yourself?"

Henry nodded.

Yvonne was unsupportive. "It would be better to have someone bring Jacqueline instead. Why do you have t o go there? Don't forget, Grandpa's having his surgery today."

"Since Jacqueline was sent to live in the suburbs by Dominic under my nose, do you think it’ll be that easy t o bring her over?" Henry stared at her.

Yvonne still did not support his idea. "Since you think it is unlikely to send someone to bring Jacqueline over, it means that Dominic's people are secretly watching over her. Wouldn’t it be dangerous for you to go there?"

"I’ll bring bodyguards," Henry said.

Yvonne did not know what other reason to say. She had already persuaded him to ditch the idea of going there to get Jacqueline and even brought up the old man's condition, yet he still insisted on

going.

"I see, but you should still be careful," Yvonne reminded as she reluctantly pursed her mouth.

Henry said, "I know, you should go meet Grandpa first. I'll come back as soon as possible before his surgery."

"Good." Yvonne nodded.

Henry left, leaving Yvonne and Sue in the huge dining hall.

She sighed helplessly as she looked at Henry's unfinished breakfast. "I hope he can finally track Dominic's whereabouts this time."

"Believe him. Sir will not let us down," Sue smiled and comforted Yvonne by giving her a pat on the shoulder. 1 exclusive content.

Yvonne nodded. "I wish. Well Sue, let’s head to the nursing home."

"But you haven't finished your breakfast yet." Sue pointed at the breakfast on her plate.

Yvonne shook her head. "Lost my appetite. Let's go."

She then left the restaurant, s

Sue smiled bitterly. "These two couldn't finish their breakfast. I made so much for nothing."

When she got to the nursing home, it was exactly nine o'clock.

The old man was awake and he was on the hospital bed looking grumpy.

Yvonne walked over and held the old man's hand. " Grandpa, what's the matter with you?"

The old man snorted and did not answer.

Yvonne had no choice but to look at Frederick beside him and signaled with her eyes as she tried to figure out the situation.

Frederick had a dumbfounded expression on his face. "The doctor came over earlier and specifically told him that he couldn’t eat before the surgery. Master was hungry and wanted to eat but I didn’t let him, so h e lost his temper."

"I see,” Yvonne laughed, "Grandpa, the doctor said that you can't eat anymore, so why are you still mad at Frederick?"

"Hmph!" The old man turned his head to the side and said nothing.

Yvonne glanced at Frederick and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

The old man's temper had become more childish.

"By the way madam, sir couldn't come?" Frederick changed the subject and stopped mentioning food so that the old man would stop thinking about it.

Yvonne also understood Frederick's intention so she went along and replied, "He'll come over, but he has something to do now, so he should be here later."

She did not mention why Henry would be there late. She did not want to let the old man hear about Jacqueline or the Conrad family so as not to irritate the old man and make him even more unhappy.

Frederick looked at his watch and said to Yvonne, ' Well, that's okay Madam, stay with master. I'll go ask the doctor about the precautions for the surgery.”

Yvonne answered, "Okay, Frederick. Go, I’ll be here with Grandpa."

"Then please take care of him," Frederick smiled at her and walked out of the ward.

The door to the ward closed and Yvonne pulled a chair to sit next to the bed so she could chat with the old man.

The old man was very talkative. He took her by the hand and talked about everything.

Time passed quickly when they were talking. When Yvonne saw that it was almost ten o'clock, she felt a little anxious as Frederick had not come back and Henry was still not here.

Yvonne took her cell phone out and said, "Grandpa, let me give Henry a call."

In ten minutes, the old man was about to be sent to the operating room. She did not want Henry to miss the old man's surgery.

The old man also hoped that all his family members would be there to accompany him during the surgery, so he agreed and nodded, "Go ahead!"

"Okay, I'll call now," Yvonne responded and dialed Henry's number.

The phone was quickly connected, and she hurriedly asked, "Henry, where are you now? Grandpa's surgery i s about to start, are you on your way..."

"He won't be back in time." A charming female voice could be heard on the other end of the phone, interrupting Yvonne.

Yvonne was stunned for a second, then frowned and said solemnly, "Is this Jacqueline?"

"Oh, you remember me," Jacqueline giggled.

Yvonne glanced at the old man, her mouth pursed tightly. “Why is Henry's phone with you? And what do you mean when you said he won't be back in time?"

She did not know why, but she felt troubled.

On the other end of the phone, Jacqueline looked at the unconscious man on the bed, and the corners of her mouth were raised. "It means that Henry is tired now and he fell asleep, so his phone is with me. As for the old guy’s surgery, I don't think it matters if Henry doesn't go back, right?"

When Yvonne heard this, she felt angry but anxious at the same time.

"What do you mean he's tired and fell asleep? Jacqueline, did you do something to Henry?" she asked harshly.

The old man also narrowed his eyes and stared closely at the phone in Yvonne's hand.

Jacqueline covered her lips and smiled proudly, "What can I do to Henry? How can a weak woman like me do anything to a big man? You should ask what Henry did to me."

The meaning of her words was so obvious that Yvonne certainly understood.

It was because she understood it that she found it ridiculous.

"Impossible!" Yvonne stood up abruptly from the chair, and the expression on her face changed drastically. She could not believe it and she panicked," What can Henry do to you? Stop spewing nonsense!"

She raised her voice, as if she was comforting herself that everything she heard was untrue.

However, her hand that was holding the phone trembled.

It was obvious that her heart was not at peace at all.

Jacqueline noticed it and she laughed even more." Don’t you believe it? I get it, seeing is believing after all. I'll send you a photo later and you’ll believe me. You know, Henry was so wild. He kept

asking for more and I still have a backache now."

After saying all those imaginative things, Jacqueline hung up.

Yvonne squeezed the phone tightly. Her heart felt heavy and her eyes were red.

Henry and Jacqueline...

No, that was absolutely impossible!

She didn't believe that Henry would be with Jacqueline, but she had to admit that Jacqueline’s words did affect her and she could not help thinking about that scene in her mind.

"My child.” The old man saw that Yvonne was emotionally unstable, so he stretched out his hand to hold her trembling hand. "Henry is with the woman from the Conrad family?"
