CHAPTER 368 AN EYE FOR AN EYE
Henry looked at him with his dark eyes. "Get lost!"
Elliot pretended not to hear and smiled at Henry to provoke him. "Mr. Lancaster, this place doesn’t belong to you so you don’t have the right to make me leave.”
"Enough!" Yvonne pulled Elliot's sleeve. "Don't mess with him. It does you no good."
"Are you concerned about me?" Elliot smiled at her.
Yvonne frowned, "Seriously? By the way, why are you here? Is the auction over?"
"Yeah, the auction is over. I came to look for you since you haven't returned but I didn't expect to hear some interesting things." Elliot glanced at Henry with a smile.
"No wonder. So you won the Conrad company?" Yvonne nodded and asked.
Elliot sighed with regret pretentiously, "I can't win against Mr. Lancaster." holds this content.
"What do you mean?" Yvonne was taken aback for a moment, then she finally understood. She opened her mouth slightly, "You...didn't get the company?"
"Yes, it was sold to the special assistant next to Mr. Lancaster." Elliot spread his hands.
Henry looked at the two of them talking and completely ignoring him. There was rage in his eyes." Are you guys done?"
His voice was as cold as the ice on a snow-capped mountain.
Yvonne knew that Henry had reached his limits so she should not talk to Elliot any more. She looked away and said, "We’re done."
"Since you're done, come back with me!" Henry reached out for her.
Yvonne glanced at his hand and shook her head as she stepped back. "Sorry, I won’t go back with you!"
"Yes, Mr. Lancaster." Elliot moved a step to the right to protect Yvonne who was standing behind him and looked at Henry with a playful smile. "Although you're husband and wife and I shouldn't interfere with your affairs, Yvonne lives with me now and she's also my date for this event. I have an obligation to help her solve her problems. Since she doesn't want to go back with you, you shouldn't force her then. You can go back by yourself."
What Elliot said had undoubtedly stirred Henry and it made him even colder.
His sullen gaze swept across Elliot and he finally fixated it on Yvonne's face. "Yvonne, I'll ask you again, are you sure you don’t want to go back?"
When Yvonne heard his question, her heart trembled and she felt a little uneasy. She felt like giving in subconsciously.
However, she thought about the fact that he had not admitted his mistake with Jacqueline, so she suppressed her anxiety and nodded stiffly. "Yes, I won't go back with you. Before you come up with a solution to our current situation, I think it's better for u s not to see each other so we can both calm down first. " 1
After that, she made up her mind and stopped looking at him as she walked past him.
But shortly after, she stopped again, and she did not look back. "When you have a solution, just call me and I’ll come meet you. Goodbye!"
She grasped the strap of her purse on her shoulders and left once again.
Elliot whistled, "Tsk, Mr. Lancaster. It must be depressing to be alone, huh?"
Henry looked at him like he was about to murder him. "You have a death wish?"
Elliot chuckled fearlessly, "Come on, Mr. Lancaster. You can threaten others, but certainly not me. My life i s in my own hands and only mine. No one else has the right to change that, not even my own father, so neither can you! Also, Mr. Lancaster, Yvonne is going t o be mine!"
"She's going to be yours?" Henry sneered, "Who do you think you are? She's my wife, and she has me in her heart. You’ll never have her, and I won't let you have her, so you'd better stay away from her."
"Mr. Lancaster, it seems like you still haven't taken my words to heart. Like I said, threats are of no use to me, and what I said earlier was not a discussion, but an announcement." Elliot's expression also turned cold and he no longer looked like his giddy self. He was back to his true nature.
"You won't be able to do it!" Henry looked at him.
Elliot said softly, "Well, you can just wait and see, Mr. Lancaster. I can assure you, even if Yvonne's your wife now and she has you in her heart, I've a thousand ways to get her to divorce you, or even forget about you. Do you believe me?"
Henry realized something as he heard this. His pupils suddenly shrank. "What're you going to do to her?"
Elliot broke into an evil smile. "You can probably tell what I'm going to do, but don't worry, it's just my final way out. I won't do it to her until I have to. After all, I d o love her more than you do."
"You love her?" Henry's temples bulged and he grabbed Elliot by his collar. "What makes you think you can talk about love?!"
"Why can’t I?" Elliot sneered coldly as he pulled himself back and looked at Henry sarcastically. "I think I'm actually more qualified than you, Mr.
Lancaster. At least I know that loving someone means not making her sad all the time and to give her enough sense of security. Did you give her all of that?"
Henry trembled as he clenched his fists and did not speak.
The corners of Elliot's mouth curved even more. "You can't deny it, right? Because you haven't given her enough sense of security and you've been making her sad, you can't deny all that. You even had sex with other women, and didn't even apologize or give her an explanation. Do you still think you’re good enough to b e her husband, Mr. Lancaster?"
"That’s not up to you to question!" Henry yelled.
"Are you embarrassed?" Elliot laughed mockingly, "I guess so, since no men would act like you, Mr.
Lancaster. You clearly made a mistake but you don't even feel a sense of guilty conscience. I suddenly realized that Yvonne was blind for falling in love with an arrogant and egotistical man like you. She was destined to be hurt."
"What do you even know? Do you think I don’t know that she’s waiting for me to apologize? I know it all, but I have my own reasons for not doing it." At this point, Henry seemed to think of something and he clenched his teeth.
However, Elliot was not surprised to hear what he just said. Instead, he looked at him even more sarcastically. "Reason? Your so-called reason is nothing more than a pretense that you're trying to protect her. You didn't apologize to her and deliberately made her angry so that she wouldn't forgive you, and you could treat her coldly so that the public would think that this was just a broken
marriage, right?"
Henry glared at him. "You..."
"You’d like to know how I know about all your tricks?" Elliot folded his arms and smiled with disdain. "With your emotional intelligence, Mr. Lancaster, just a little thinking would be enough to figure out what you're trying to do. You agreed with Yvonne moving out of the Lancaster's residence so that your enemies would think that your relationship was broken. This way, your enemies wouldn't hurt her and you think that this would protect her. Hah..."
Elliot blew his nails. "It's extremely absurd. This is just your self-righteousness. You never even considered that maybe Yvonne doesn't want your protection. But I get it, you don't care about her feelings at all because of your arrogance and pride. You treat her like she's a puppet, so..."
"Shut up!" Henry interrupted him coldly, "What do you mean I treat her like a puppet?"
