CHAPTER 357 LISTENING DEVICE

"I don’t." Yvonne shook her head.

Henry did not answer, but took the old man's urn from Frederick expressionlessly and walked outside the funeral home.

Yvonne looked at his back and pursed her mouth tightly. "He hasn’t said a word since yesterday."

"What can he say? He was the one who caused master's death, so he probably feels extremely guilty now," Frederick sighed.

The corner of Yvonne's mouth twitched. "I can tell."

"Madam, you..."

"Huh?" Yvonne looked at him puzzled.

Frederick's eyes flickered. "Will you forgive sir for what happened between him and Jacqueline?"

Yvonne was silent when she heard this.

To be honest, she had never thought about it.

She was just an ordinary woman who would care, feel jealous, and envious. Her husband cheated, and she couldn't pretend as if nothing ever happened.

Moreover, deep down she was a clean freak. Whenever she thought about Henry having intimate contact with other women during their marriage, she felt sick, especially because the woman was the one she hated

most.

Yvonne shook her head and answered truthfully, "I don't know if I’ll forgive him. I only know that I won't for the time being. As for the future...who knows?"

She smiled bitterly.

"Sigh..." Frederick sighed again, "Sir was also tricked. I asked Joe and he said that when sir went to meet the woman, he didn't expect the woman to have lit an aphrodisiac fragrance in the room, and that’s why he fell for it."

"Aphrodisiac fragrance in the room?" Yvonne frowned, "So, Jacqueline knew in advance that Henry would go look for her? Otherwise, why would she light that fragrance?"

Frederick heard her doubts, and he was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Yes, Joe said that the phone you got from the young lady, Ms. Yaeger, had a listening device. That’s why Jacqueline knew that sir was going to meet her that day."

"Listening device?" Yvonne's pupils suddenly shrank, and she raised her voice in surprise.

Frederick nodded. "Yes, Joe just discovered this last night. He also wondered why Jacqueline knew in advance that sir was going to meet her, so he investigated."

"I see." Yvonne clenched her fist and her face went pale. "So, I was the one who caused the tragedy. If I didn't bring the phone back, maybe this wouldn't have

happened?"

Frederick glanced at her, sighed, and shook his head without speaking.

He couldn't say that all of these things had nothing to do with her, but even though she was not the person who caused the tragedy, she did bring the phone back.

If she did not bring it back, all these events might not have happened.

"Frederick... I didn't know there was a listening device on the phone. If I knew, I wouldn't have brought it back, I..." Yvonne covered her face as she felt guilty and remorseful. 3

Frederick patted her on the shoulder. "It's all in the past, so what's the point of saying this now? Madam, you should compose yourself and get prepared to arrange master’s funeral."

After speaking, Frederick did not stay long. He turned around and left.

Yvonne was left there alone. Her thin shoulders were drooping and she seemed depressed.

When Sue saw her, she was crouched on the ground and sobbing.

"Madam, what's the matter?" Sue asked eagerly.

Yvonne cried without answering.

Sue was anxious. "Talk to me, madam." "Sue..." Yvonne raised her head and looked at her desperately. "I think I'm the one who killed Grandpa."

"Why would you say that?" Sue was surprised.

Yvonne told her about the listening device that was installed on the phone.

Sue gawked after listening, and suddenly she did not know what to say.

Yvonne's heart sank when she noticed her silence.

Sue probably also believed that it was not just Henry who caused the old man's death-she was also involved.

"Madam...." Sue said painfully, "Lynette gave you the mobile phone, so did she trick you again?"

Yvonne shook her head. "No, she probably didn't even know that there was a listening device on the phone."

She believed Lynette did not know.

It was because when she said her final farewell, she could see that Lynette really regretted what she did and wanted to make up for her mistakes.

Therefore, she wouldn't have given her a phone with a listening device. It was all part of Jacqueline’s plan. Maybe she installed the listening device for Lynette just to monitor her but she did not expect her to go to jail so soon. Lynette then gave her the mobile phone, s o Jacqueline could monitor Henry's movements from the mobile phone, and that was how she tricked him.

Everything made sense now.

It turned out that it was not just Henry and Jacqueline who killed the old man, but also Yvonne!

"I was wrong, I'm sorry Grandpa..." Yvonne cried louder.

Sue did not know how to console her, so she pulled her up from the ground. "Madam, no matter whose fault it is, it’s all over now. We should move forward, right? You should think about how to deal with your relationship now." 1

Since yesterday, the couple had been ignoring each other, and the mood was so cold that even Sue felt afraid.

If this went on, the relationship between them would cease to exist even if they didn't divorce.

"I don’t know how to deal with my relationship with Henry," Yvonne said as Sue helped her up to sit down o n a chair. She looked at the floor puzzled. "I gave him the cold shoulder because I'm mad that he didn’t make it to see Grandpa before the surgery, and I also don't like that he slept with Jacqueline, so I really don't know what to do."

She could not do it.

Forgiving him would mean that she did not care about his infidelity, but that was impossible. How could she not care? Yesterday she was up all night, bothered by the thought of him being with Jacqueline!

"Madam, let's not talk about what happened to master now, but sir’s infidelity was not of his own will, you..." 2

"I know it wasn't of his will." Yvonne interrupted Sue and closed her eyes before she went on. "But it’s a fact that he cheated. I really can't bring myself to accept that. If I didn’t love him, I wouldn’t care if he was with another woman."

"This... sigh..." Sue sighed, "Okay, I won't try to persuade you, because this is between the both of you and you can handle it yourself. We should go back now."

"Yeah," Yvonne agreed.

Back at the villa, it was already afternoon.

As soon as Yvonne entered the living room, she lay on the sofa and fell asleep.

She was very tired, not only physically but also mentally.

Even though she was asleep, her brows were still furrowed and she could not relax.

Henry went downstairs and saw Yvonne lying on the sofa asleep. His eyes narrowed, and he walked to her and stood still. He stared at her eyes that were still red and swollen from yesterday and pursed his thin lips.

"Sir." Sue was behind him and he did not know how long she had been there.

Henry did not look back or respond-he just looked at

Yvonne quietly.

Sue knew that he heard her cries just now. She sighed lightly and said, "Madam’s been blaming herself."

"What's to blame?" Henry finally said something for the first time since last night.

However, his voice sounded a little hoarse because he had not spoken for a long time.

Sue replied bitterly, "She blamed herself for not holding you back yesterday, and for not stopping you from going to Jacqueline’s. She also blamed herself for not holding her phone tighter and letting master see the picture. She also blamed herself for bringing M s. Lynette's phone back."

"She knows about the listening device?” Henry's pupils trembled slightly.
