CHAPTER 389 ELLIOT GOT DRUNK
"Tell me about young Mr. Lancaster. Since it was the Lancasters' enemy who took the second young master away and you found out that it was the Taylors, that means Shaw was the person who took the second young master away. So where's young Mr. Lancaster now? Did you find out?" Frederick clasped his hands together and asked expectantly.
Yvonne and Henry looked at each other. They smiled and replied, "We found him."
"Who is it?" Frederick stood up. holds this content.
Yvonne did not answer this time and gave Henry the opportunity to tell Frederick.
Henry rubbed his thumb and slowly uttered, "Elliot."
"What?" Frederick was slightly startled. "How could it be him?"
"It is him!" Henry nodded.
Frederick was silent for a while. "Then what're you waiting for? Why didn’t you bring him back and tell him the truth?"
Yvonne scratched her head. "Frederick... I've already told him already, but he still doesn't completely believe what I said. So I gave him the time to find the answer on his own, and I believe that when he finds the answer, he'll be back." 1
"Really?" Frederick looked at her.
Yvonne nodded. "Really."
"That'd be great. This is really good news. First, we found out the enemy of the Lancaster family, and then we discovered the second young master.
Unfortunately, master left too early and didn't wait long enough to see for the return of our second young master." Frederick sighed.
Yvonne also lowered her eyes gloomily.
Henry clenched his fists. He seemed cold and gloomy.
After a while, he grabbed his jacket and got up. "Let’s g o!"
Yvonne looked at him. "We're going back already?"
"Young master, please stay and have a meal before you leave," Frederick also said.
Henry pursed his thin lips. "No, since we already know that the enemy is the Taylors, we can’t wait any longer. We must find a way to stop Shaw as soon as possible. As for you, Frederick... Please make all the necessary preparations to welcome Hayden back to the family, and spread the news that Hayden has been found. The ceremony will be held for him when he returns."
"Oh, yes, young master!" Frederick readily agreed.
Henry looked at Yvonne again.
Yvonne quickly got up. "Let’s go."
The pair left the old residence together.
Henry sent her to the entrance of Elliot's apartment." Wait for Hayden here for a few days. As soon as he shows up, call me immediately."
Yvonne stood in front of the car and nodded. "Don't worry, I will."
Henry said, "See you."
"Goodbye!" Yvonne waved at him.
Henry rolled up the window and started the engine.
Yvonne stayed and watched his car leave until she lost sight of it. She then slowly lowered her hands and went back to the apartment building.
For the next two days, Yvonne followed Henry's instructions and waited for Elliot in the apartment without leaving the apartment at all.
Unfortunately, Elliot never came.
During this period, she had also called Elliot several times, but his phone was switched off. She began to worry about what might happen to Elliot if Shaw found out what he was trying to do.
If that was the case, then she was to blame.
After all, she was the one who asked him to go talk to Shaw!
"God, please make sure he's safe!" Yvonne clasped her hands together and paced around the living room
nervously.
Just when she was about to have a panic attack from all her worries, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Yvonne stopped and looked at the door. "Who is it?"
The person outside the door did not respond but kept ringing the doorbell instead.
The doorbell kept ringing and she started feeling anxious. She began to fear if the Taylor family had sent someone over.
It was not impossible.
As Yvonne thought about it, she took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and walked vigilantly towards the door.
In the unlikely event that the Taylor family really sent someone, she would just attack with the knife.
Yvonne calmed herself down and clasped her kitchen knife as she walked to the door.
She did not open the door immediately but opened her doorbell camera instead to see who was outside.
When she saw that the person outside was Elliot, she exclaimed and quickly threw away the kitchen knife i n her hand before opening the door.
As soon as the door opened, Elliot's tall body fell on her and she could smell a strong scent of alcohol. She almost vomited from the smell.
"Hey?" Yvonne did not move away in time so he just fell right on her. After stumbling for a few steps, she fell onto her butt and yelped in pain.
Elliot was laying on her lap with his eyes closed tightly. His clothes were messy and wrinkled, and even his face was unshaven. He looked like a hobo.
How much did he drink?
While thinking, Yvonne sat up while rubbing her buttocks. She helped Elliot up from the ground.
"Elliot? Elliot?" She patted Elliot's face.
Elliot leaned on her shoulder and groaned uncomfortably.
Yvonne sighed after confirming that he was drunk and unconscious. She helped him walk towards the sofa one step at a time.
When they got to the sofa, she lay him down and took her phone out to call Henry.
"Hello?" Henry said tiredly.
Yvonne panted and said, "It's me."
"I know."
"Elliot's back," Yvonne said as she looked at Elliot on the sofa.
Suddenly, there was a sharp noise from the other end o f the phone, much like the sound of a chair scraping against the floor. It was probably Henry who stood up from the chair excitedly after hearing the news from her.
"Is he with you now?" Henry asked.
Yvonne nodded. "Yes, he's extremely drunk. Come and see him."
"Okay, I'll come right away. Take good care of him." Henry reminded.
Yvonne smiled, "Didn't you want me to stay away from him?"
Henry's face turned dark when he heard that. "This is different!"
"What's the difference?" she asked on purpose.
Henry pursed his thin lips. "He's my brother and you’re his sister-in-law now. Nothing can ever happen between both of you."
After that, he hung up the phone and picked up the car key on the desk before setting off.
Yvonne looked at the home screen on her phone and shook her head with a smile. She put down her phone and went to the bathroom to fetch some water so that she could wipe Elliot's face.
Henry came shortly after-it only took him less than a n hour.
Yvonne opened the door for him and led him to the living room. She pointed at Elliot on the sofa and said, "He smells like alcohol, and his clothes are from two days ago. It stinks so you can get him changed."
Henry did not reject. He lifted his chin slightly and
agreed. 2
Yvonne went back to the room and took out a fresh set of clothes. "These are what you left a few days ago. Both of you are about the same size so your clothes should fit him nicely. You can change it for him. I'll go back to the room first."
She handed him the clothes, turned around, and walked to her room.
She stayed in the room for almost ten minutes and didn't come out until she heard Henry tell her that he was ready.
"It seemed like he went through something rough," Yvonne suddenly said as she poured a glass of water and sat opposite Elliot.
Henry stood beside her and frowned without saying anything. However, his eyes that were looking at Elliot were full of worries.
"He's probably figured out his true identity, otherwise he wouldn’t normally drink so much. I can tell that he's very sad and devastated," Yvonne said.
Henry clenched his fists. "I’ll definitely make Shaw pay a painful price! I will!"
"I believe you." Yvonne reached out and gently placed her hand on his clenched fist, giving him unreserved trust.
Henry felt the warmth on the back of his hand, and his tense face eased slightly.
Just then, the doorbell rang again.
Yvonne glanced at Henry and asked loudly, "Who's that?"
