CHAPTER 398 GIVE ME A KISS
Bam!
The bathroom door was slammed open and it bounced on the wall so hard it even shook a little. It also made a weird screeching sound as if it was broken.
However, Yvonne could not care less about that. She rushed to the basin and released her hand that was covering her mouth. She leaned in and started throwing up. It was quite scary as she seemed like she was going to vomit her guts out.
Yvonne vomited for quite a long time, and her stomach finally felt better. She didn’t feel that uncomfortable anymore and she gradually stopped feeling nauseous.
She was panting heavily with her arms propped on both sides of the sink. Her face was pale and she was i n a daze as she stared at the white basin.
She didn't know why she suddenly felt nauseous and started vomiting.
But in fact, it was not as serious as it sounded. She didn't actually throw up anything other than a little bit of bile.
If she didn't know that it was impossible for her to get pregnant, she would've thought that those were pregnancy signs. 1
"It looks like I ate something bad and that's why I feel nauseous?" Yvonne murmured while pushing her sweaty hair on her face behind her ears. Then she turned on the faucet to rinse her mouth with water so that it would wash away the sourness in her mouth. She wiped her hands and finally left the bathroom.
It made her weak, and by this time, her legs felt weak too. She stumbled back to the room and lay on the bed before going to sleep.
She didn't even hear the phone ring when she was asleep. She only woke up when there was a knock on the door the next day.
"Sue?" Yvonne opened the door and saw the kind old lady standing outside. For a moment, she thought she was in a dream. After rubbing her eyes, the old lady was still there. She suddenly realized that it was really Sue and not her illusion.
"Madam, good morning." Sue was in an apron and she smiled at her.
Yvonne quickly smiled back, "Morning, Sue. Why are you here?"
"Sir asked me to come help you pack up your luggage. I called you in advance last night, but you didn't answer, so I just had to just come this morning," Sue answered.
Yvonne scratched her head. "Call? I didn't hear any calls. Wait..."
She released the doorknob and turned around to grab her phone on the bedside table. She unlocked it and sure enough, there was an emergency call and the time indicated was nine o'clock last night.
No wonder she did not hear it-she was already asleep at the time.
"Sorry Sue, I didn't notice," Yvonne said embarrassedly while holding the phone.
Sue waved her hand indifferently. "It's okay. I called you just to ask what time you will be in today so that I can plan when to come over."
"I see." Yvonne nodded, and then asked, "Then how did you get in?"
"Sir gave me the key card," Sue said while taking out a white key card from the pocket of her apron and shaking it.
Yvonne recognized at a glance that it was Henry's, and that he had actually duplicated it without Elliot's permission.
"He went back to the villa last night?" Yvonne asked again.
Sue answered quickly, "Yes, sir came back late last night. After he came back, he made a phone call and stayed in the study room until dawn. When he finally came out, he changed his clothes and hurried away without having breakfast." "Why was he in such a rush?" Yvonne was slightly surprised. "What's going on?"
"I'm not sure about that." Sue shook her head. "But when I brought coffee for sir last night, I saw that he was in a video call with the second young master, and they seemed to be talking about arresting someone."
"Arrest?" Yvonne's heart was beating fast. "Could it be Shaw?"
"I don't know. They didn't mention who they were going to arrest, but I guess it's most probably either Shaw or the damned father and daughter of the Conrad family." Sue shrugged her shoulders.
Yvonne couldn't really get an accurate answer so she could only try to calm down for the time being. She reluctantly tugged the corner of her mouth and said," You’re right, we’ll still have to wait for Henry and Hayden to confirm who they were talking about.
Anyway, none of them can ever escape."
"That’s true, madam. Let's go out for breakfast first, and we'll go back to the villa after breakfast." Sue tidied her messy clothes. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Yvonne nodded and walked to the bathroom.
After breakfast, Sue helped her clean up.
She didn’t have a lot of things, and she only packed two suitcases. One was large and the other was small. After Luke got there, he carried one in each hand and left.
Yvonne and Sue followed him empty-handed. They got in the car and left the apartment.
When they got back to the villa, it was only noon.
Sue went to the kitchen to prepare lunch, while Yvonne went back to the room to organize her own things.
When she was halfway done, the door of her room suddenly opened, and a tall figure walked in from the outside.
Yvonne was sitting in front of the suitcase. She heard footsteps and thought it was Sue, so she asked without looking back, "Sue, what's the matter?"
"It's me!" The man's low voice sounded behind her.
Yvonne paused as she was folding her clothes. She turned around immediately. "Henry?"
Henry raised his chin slightly as a response.
Yvonne dropped her clothes and stood up as she looked at him in surprise. "Why are you back here at this hour?"
"I came back to get some documents," Henry replied.
Yvonne blinked. "In other words, you're going to leave soon?"
"Well, Elliot's waiting for me." Henry nodded.
Yvonne was suddenly full of life. "Are you planning to arrest Shaw and the others?"
Henry raised his eyebrows and he seemed surprised.
Where did you hear that?"
Yvonne pointed to the floor. "Sue. She heard your video call with Elliot last night."
Henry's eyes twitched. "I see. Yes, I was indeed discussing with Elliot about arresting Shaw."
"Then... is it going to work?" Yvonne clenched her fists as she was extremely nervous.
Henry stretched out his hand and squeezed her face." The success rate is very high."
"Really?" Yvonne jumped excitedly, but in the next second, she was puzzled. "However, how can the success rate be high? You mentioned the day before yesterday that the plan to take down Shaw and his family might take a long time since they’re so powerful and influential. We will need to strip them of their power before we can really take him down, but why now..."
"This is all possible because of Hayden." Henry pulled his tie as he walked to the bed and sat down.
Yvonne was intrigued. She followed him and sat down beside him. "Tell me about it. What's the matter?"
"Give me a kiss." Henry pointed to his face.
Yvonne was surprised. "Huh? Give you a kiss?"
"Yeah." Henry nodded solemnly. "Kiss me and I'll tell you."
Yvonne pouted and asked, "Are you actually
bargaining now?"
Henry's mouth twitched lightly. "So do you still want t o know?"
"Hm?"
Yvonne looked at the man's smiling eyes and she couldn’t lie as she obviously wanted to know. In the end, she puffed her face and asked angrily, "Where?"
Henry leaned in and the curvature of his mouth became more obvious.
Yvonne looked at his handsome and flawless face.
Her heart was pounding and her small face flushed.
She had kissed him before and she had also been forced to kiss him, but this seemed to be the first time she would kiss his face.
This was the first time and it felt different.
"What are you doing? Hurry up, I'm leaving soon!" Henry urged when he saw the woman staring at his face in a daze.
Yvonne regained her senses. She started blushing and coughed when she said, "Here I go."
She then pouted and slowly leaned closer to his face...
