CHAPTER 376 DOWN WITH A FEVER

Yvonne took a deep breath and took his advice to heart. "I understand. We'll do the IVF surgery as soon a s possible."

"That’s good. Now let me send you back," Shane said a s he glanced at his watch.

Yvonne thanked him and went along with him.

Shane left after sending her to Elliot's apartment.

After Yvonne went up, she began installing the monitoring devices in various hidden corners of the living room that would not be found easily. 2

After installing all the devices, she clapped her hands and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV.

There was a news broadcast on TV. Yvonne took a look and found that it was actually related to the Lancaster Group.

She immediately dismissed the idea of switching the channel. She sat down and watched it attentively.

The news was about the piece of land. It had been seized by the national archaeological department, which meant that the land was a complete loss.

Moreover, the stock market of the Lancaster Group was turbulent. It had been declining since yesterday and it decreased by several percent.

Although she did not know much about the stock market, she still understood what a few percent meant.

It was probably a few hundred million, and on top of the land that was more than one billion, the Lancaster Group lost more than two billion dollars in just two days. It didn't look like the loss would stop anytime soon, so if this went on, she couldn't imagine what would happen to the Lancaster Group.

"Henry..." Yvonne squeezed the remote control in her hand and her eyes were full of worries. She was worried about Henry and the Lancaster Group.

It was a pity that she couldn't help with anything at all.

'Loom!'

Yvonne was surprised by the sudden sound of thunder outside.

She quickly turned her head and looked outside the balcony, and she realized that the sky outside had already turned dark and heavy rain was about to come.

Yvonne remembered that her clothes were still outside so she quickly put down the remote control and ran to the balcony to collect her clothes.

However, just as she was about to go back to her room after collecting her things, she caught a glance of a familiar Mercedes driving over the road downstairs out of the corner of her eye.

She recognized the Mercedes and the license plate. It belonged to Henry.

Why did he suddenly come here?

Yvonne stared downstairs for a while and saw that the Mercedes had clearly stopped but whoever was inside didn’t get out of the car.

She frowned as she did not understand why he came but refused to get out of the car. What was Henry doing?

Yvonne was puzzled and after a while, she went back t o her room to put down the clothes that were in her arms. She took out her mobile phone after that and walked to the balcony. While staring at the car below, she dialed the phone of the man in the car.

"Hello?" The familiar deep voice of the man could be heard on the other end of the phone.

Yvonne could hear the fatigue in his voice, and she could not help but purse her lips. "Where are you?" she asked.

In the car, Henry rubbed his aching temple and replied, "I'm downstairs."

"Then why aren't you getting out of the car?" Yvonne asked again.

Henry stopped in his tracks, then rolled down the car window and looked up.

He happened to meet Yvonne's gaze and he instantly understood that she already knew that he was here, so that was why she called to ask him where he was.

"I drove for no reason and I’ll leave in a while," Henry said casually.

Yvonne looked away and turned to look at the dark sky. "Well, you can go now. It's going to rain soon."

When Henry heard this, he tightly pressed his thin lips.

This woman knew that he was already here, so shouldn't she invite him in?

She told him to leave instead!

Did she want him to leave?

"You don't need to remind me, I'll leave anyway," Henry replied begrudgingly.

Yvonne didn’t think too much about why he was upset either. The wind started howling so she squinted her eyes and said, "Well, be careful on the road. The wind's blowing so I better get back into the house first."

She then closed the French windows on the balcony and went in.

Henry suddenly became angry when he saw her leave just like that.

This woman was so heartless!

He came all the way to see her but that was her reaction!

Henry tossed the phone resentfully and put his hand o n the steering wheel as he was prepared to drive away.

But just when he started the car, he suddenly felt dizzy and right after that, his tall body fell on the steering wheel.

When he fell, his forehead accidentally hit the button i n the center of the steering wheel and the car immediately made a loud honk.

Yvonne heard the sound of the horn and she opened the French windows of her balcony to look down again. When she saw that Henry's car was still parked there, she could not help but frown.

What was he trying to do? This belongs to .

Say goodbye to her before leaving?

Yvonne closed the French windows again without thinking much about it and returned to her room.

Whoosh-’

It was pouring outside.

Yvonne rubbed her arms as she felt a little cold. She turned on the heater and curled up on the sofa in the living room to watch TV.

She did not know how much time had passed when she started feeling drowsy while watching TV, and the doorbell suddenly rang.

Yvonne immediately woke up and yelled towards the direction of the door, "Who’s that?"

"Hello Miss, I’m the building superintendent." The person who was outside the door answered politely.

Yvonne walked over with a yawn and opened the door. "Hi, what can I do for you?"

"Miss, do you know the owner of the Mercedes downstairs?" the man asked.

"Yes." Yvonne nodded subconsciously, but her eyes widened as soon as she came back to her senses."

Wait a minute, you just mentioned a Mercedes. That Mercedes hasn't left yet?"

"Yes. When we were patrolling, we found that the car was blocking the road, so we were going to check if there was any contact information on the car so that the owner could move the car away. Unexpectedly, the owner was in the car but his condition didn't seem too good."

"His condition didn't seem too good?" Yvonne felt her heart sink and she could feel a surge of anxiety.

"Yes, the owner of the car is down with a fever and we wanted to call an ambulance for him, but he refused to say anything and asked us to come see you instead, s o..."

Before the building superintendent could finish talking, Yvonne rushed out of the door and ran towards the elevator hurriedly.

In the elevator, Yvonne clenched her hands tightly and her anxious eyes were red.

She never thought that Henry had been downstairs the whole time and had a fever.

Had it not been for the building superintendent's inspection, he might not have been discovered and he would have stayed there like that all night.

She could not even imagine what would’ve happened t o him!

Ding!'

The elevator had arrived.

Yvonne suppressed the concern in her heart for the time being and rushed out in the rain to get to Henry's car. i

It was raining heavily and she did not bring an umbrella. Her clothes and hair were soaking wet and her wet hair was stuck to her face as she shivered in the cold.

However, she couldn't care less about all these anymore. Henry was the only thing on her mind.

"Henry!" Yvonne knocked on the car window and called Henry's name anxiously.

The car window quickly rolled down and revealed Henry's face that was flushed because of the fever.

He looked at Yvonne who was drenched in the rain and his pupils shrank. He suddenly became furious." Yvonne, what are you doing here?"
