CHAPTER 356 HENRY'S REGRET
Yvonne answered him with a blank expression," Grandpa’s at the morgue. If you want to see him, you should go there."
"Yvonne, stop joking with me!" Henry came up to her with a gloomy face.
Yvonne looked at him disdainfully. "Joking? Do you think I'd joke with you about Grandpa's life and death? Henry, please think before you speak!"
Henry's pupils dilated because he never expected that this woman would actually talk and look at him like that.
"Sir, madam's right. Master has indeed..."
"No!" Henry sternly interrupted Sue. His fists were clenched tightly on both sides, and the blue veins on the back of his hand were exposed. "Grandpa's not dead, you're all lying to me!"
"Why would we lie to you?" Yvonne stood up, and at this moment, her petite body seemed so tall.
She showed no fear at all, even when she was facing Henry who was full of coldness. "Henry, do you know what you missed out on in this life?"
Henry stared at her with trembling eyes.
She took a breath and said coldly, "You missed the last moments with Grandpa, and Grandpa also didn't get t o see you, his only grandson, during his final moments. This not only made Grandpa leave with regret, but it'll also be the biggest regret of your life!"
When Yvonne said this, her tone was not heavy, but like a sharp blade, they left a deep cut in Henry's heart.
His face gradually turned pale, his usual strong temperament had become vulnerable at this moment.
'Boom!'
He suddenly roared like a trapped beast and slammed his fist against the wall.
He used up almost all his strength and the skin of his knuckles were cut open. The bright red blood dripped down the palm of his hand to the ground, staining the carpet in red.
He finally believed and accepted the cruel fact that the old man had passed away.
Henry's wild behavior shocked everyone in the ward.
Yvonne looked at his bloody hand. Although she felt worried for a second, she did not ask him about it.
She could not forgive him so easily because of the old man's death and the matter between him and Jacqueline!
In the end, only Sue approached him. "Sir, what're you doing? Let me see. Did you injure your bones?"
She was going to take a look at Henry's hand.
Henry pulled his hand away to the side to avoid Sue's
touch. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Grandpa...when did he leave?"
"When you were busy having a good time with Jacqueline," Yvonne replied sarcastically.
Henry's expression changed slightly. Nobody knew what he was thinking about but his expression darkened.
"Jacqueline and I didn't..."
"You didn’t?" Yvonne interrupted him, "Didn't do it?" exclusive content.
Henry's thin lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but eventually he did not say anything.
When Yvonne noticed his silence, her heart sank and she felt miserable. "You're not saying anything. It seems like something did happen between you and Jacqueline, right?"
"Madam, Mr. Lancaster was tricked," Joe spoke for Henry.
Yvonne was so angry she started laughing, but she was also crying at the same time. "Tricked? He and Jacqueline did something like that. Is he supposed to b e forgiven just because it's a trick? Even if Jacqueline did trick him, would she have succeeded if he didn't g o meet her on his own?" she pointed at Henry and asked Joe loudly.
Joe glanced at Henry, and suddenly he had nothing to say.
Yvonne put her hand down and said, "Henry, didn't I tell you this morning that you should stay with your grandfather until his surgery ends before going to see Jacqueline? You didn't listen. Are you happy now that things ended up like this? Do you know how Grandpa died?"
Henry paused as he stared at her intensely.
She raised her hand and wiped her tears before saying coldly, "Grandpa was triggered because of you. He died because he was so angry at you!"
"That’s impossible!" Henry said in a deep voice.
"Impossible?" Yvonne curled her lips mockingly, "Do you know that at ten in the morning, I wanted to call you to ask if you were coming back, but Jacqueline answered the call and told me that you fell asleep because you were tired, and she sent me a photo of you in bed. Grandpa saw that photo and he was so angry that he passed out."
"Yes sir, after master fainted, he was immediately sent to the emergency room, but the doctor said that
master was in too much shock and suffered a sudden infarction, so they couldn't save him," Sue started crying again when she talked about this.
Henry stumbled, but fortunately, Joe held him in time and he did not fall.
"Mr. Lancaster, are you okay?" Joe asked.
Henry pushed him away without answering.
He was okay, but all he felt was regret.
tell you this morning that you should stay with your grandfather until his surgery ends before going to see Jacqueline? You didn't listen. Are you happy now that things ended up like this? Do you know how Grandpa died?"
He regretted that he did not stay with the old man until his surgery because he was too stubborn to listen to Yvonne's advice.
He regretted that he was not more cautious and accidentally fell for Jacqueline's trick. He slept with her and did not come back in time!
However, all of this had happened, and as much as he regretted it, there was nothing he could do.
"Henry, do you know that Grandpa was still thinking about you before he died?" Yvonne had calmed down a little.
Henry suppressed his regret and looked at her. "What did Grandpa say?"
"Grandpa told me not to divorce you, and I promised him. So even if you cheated and killed Grandpa, I won’t divorce you, but this doesn't mean that I'll forgive you," Yvonne said coldly.
She was not a fool. She obviously knew what Joe said just now was true. Jacqueline tricked Henry so he would sleep with her. 1
But even if he was tricked, he still cheated. She could not forgive nor accept it.
Of course, these were all secondary. What she really could not forgive was that he did not come back to see Grandpa for the last time. She hated his stubborn personality and his arrogant character that just would not listen to other people's advice.
He thought that he could do everything and he was unstoppable, but in the end, he did not achieve anything at all, and killed his grandfather instead.
Yvonne felt uncomfortable as she thought about it. She took a breath and pulled one of the suitcases. "Go t o the morgue and see Grandpa for the last time. I'll send his belongings back to the old house."
She then pulled the suitcase past Henry and out of the ward.
Sue saw this and hurriedly dragged another suitcase a s she followed behind.
Only Henry and Joe were left in the ward. Henry had droopy eyes and his expression was vague, while Joe seemed like he did not know what to do.
Joe hesitated for a while and said, "Mr. Lancaster, shall we go see Master Lancaster?"
Henry ignored him and turned around to walk outside the ward.
When Joe saw him leaving, he quickly followed as it was certainly not right to stay here alone...
The next day, the old man was cremated as Yvonne and Henry watched.
Frederick went up to the two of them while holding the old man's ashes. He said with a gloomy expression, "I’ve notified all of Lancaster's collateral family. I've also notified other families and sent the invitation letter. The funeral will be in three days. Do you have anything else to prepare?"
