CHAPTER 458 AN EYE FOR AN EYE

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Smith," Joe apologized again.

Sam looked at Yvonne so that she could decide what t o do.

Although Yvonne could not see him, her senses were acute. She could feel his gaze and what he meant so she nodded. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Sam understood what she meant so he said to Joe on the other end of the phone, "It's okay, I just didn't find the right time. Since Mr. Lancaster is doing his checkup, I'll call back later, bye!"

"Goodbye!" Joe quickly responded.

When the call ended, Joe looked at the phone screen that had returned to its main menu, puzzled.

He really could not understand Mr. Smith.

Mr. Smith and Mr. Lancaster were just business partners and they were not close at all. They also did not know each other in the past, but since madam’s accident, this person had started to pay attention to M r. Lancaster.

What was his intention?

After thinking for a while, Joe could not figure it out s o he stopped thinking about it and put the phone away before going to the neurosurgery department.

When he arrived at the department, Joe met Shane who was checking on Henry.

Shane glanced at him. "Why are you here?"

"I have something to report to Mr. Lancaster," Joe replied.

Shane pointed to the machine on the side. "Then you might have to wait for a while, Henry is still inside."

"It's okay, I'll just wait here." Joe nodded and walked t o the side to sit down and wait quietly.

After waiting for about half an hour, Shane finally opened the machine.

Henry came out in a hospital gown and his face was pale.

When Joe saw that, he took off a coat that was hanging on the shelf and put it over him. "Mr.

Lancaster, are you okay?"

Henry touched his forehead without answering.

Joe could tell that he was weak, so he led him to take a seat at the chair he used earlier. "Mr. Lancaster, Mr. Smith called earlier."

As he was rubbing his eyebrows, he suddenly paused and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing much, he heard that you were awake so he called to send you his regards," Joe replied.

Henry narrowed his eyes. "Did he send someone to follow me again?" "Uh... When you passed out, Mr. Smith was at the scene too so it’s probably normal if he sent someone t o inquire about you," Joe explained reluctantly.

However, he did not know why Mr. Smith was watching over Mr. Lancaster even before the incident.

At this time, Shane came over with an inspection report. "Henry, congratulations, you're all right here."

He pointed to his head.

Henry looked at him coldly and looked at the report he handed over.

After reading it, he then handed it to Joe who was standing beside him and left the department.

Joe and Shane looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders before following behind.

"Henry, won’t you give me an explanation?" Shane suddenly said when he was walking behind him.

Henry stopped. "Explain? What explanation do you need?"

"Of course it's about the blood clot in your brain. When did you hit your head?" Shane looked serious.

When Henry heard this question, his eyelids drooped and he said nothing.

Shane sighed, thinking that he would not answer, but he suddenly said, "On the snow mountain half a year ago."

"Snow mountain?" Shane was taken aback, then he suddenly remembered. "Was it the time when you and Yvonne fell down the snow mountain?"

Henry did not respond and continued to move forward.

Joe patted Shane on the shoulder. "Yes. In order to save his wife, Mr. Lancaster hit his back and head on a rock, but because his back injury was more serious a t the time, while his head was only diagnosed with a slight concussion, Mr. Lancaster only focused on recovering the injury on his back and ignored his head injury."

"What a fool!" Shane frowned fiercely.

Joe said, "That's what he's like. Without madam, he would live like a robot, but now that madam is dead, what will Mr. Lancaster be like in the future?"

"..." When Shane heard this, his glasses reflected the light and he said nothing.

Joe didn't notice his strange reaction. After a long sigh, he lowered his hand from Shane's shoulder and chased after Henry.

Shane was the last to leave and he lowered his head slightly as if he was thinking about something.

When he finally arrived at Henry's ward, he heard Henry asking, "Where's Yvonne's body?"

Joe did not answer but lowered his head deeply.

When Henry saw this, he felt a little uncomfortable and his expression turned gloomy. "Tell me, where's her body?"

"Mr. Lancaster..." Joe clenched his fists and it seemed like he was struggling.

In the end, Shane couldn’t stand it any longer so he answered Henry for him, "It’s been cremated."

The air suddenly became still.

After a few seconds, Henry's eyes turned red, and he growled, "Who did it!"

"It was Jacqueline," Joe answered quickly this time.

Henry clenched his fist tightly, "Her?"

"Yes. Just yesterday, she found out that madam's body was discovered. She said that she was afraid it would make you sad, so she cremated the body without anyone's approval. When Dr. Summers and I found out, it was already too late." Joe lowered his head, ashamed.

Bang!

Henry flipped the cabinet next to his hospital bed, and it felt like he was trying to kill someone. He was like a devil from hell. "How dare she!"

The reason why he accommodated her and brought her to the villa was for her kidneys.

But now that Yvonne was dead, Jacqueline had the nerve to cremate the body. Did she think she would end up better if she did that?

She was given a chance to live because of Yvonne. Now that Yvonne was gone, she obviously had no value anymore. It was as if she did that to dig her own grave, so he was going to make it actually happen!

"Bring her here!" Henry commanded with a gloomy look in his eyes, and his voice was cold.

Joe knew that he was really furious, so he did not dare to defy him. He quickly responded and went out.

Henry looked at Shane again. "Where're her ashes?"

Shane lowered his eyes and said quietly, "Still at the funeral home. How are you going to deal with Jacqueline?"

"Since she cremated Yvonne’s body so blatantly, that's enough to prove that she caused Yvonne's death. She actually killed Yvonne, so obviously I want her to pay for it, an eye for an eye!" Henry said coldly.

Shane was startled. "Henry, don't be so ruthless. If you actually kill her, you won't be able to escape the law!"

"Law?" Henry's mouth curved gloomily, "In this world, there are many cases where murderers disappear silently without the law ever finding them, right?"

Shane did not know what to say. "I know, but it's still not the best way to do this..."

"Not the best way? Then tell me, she killed my wife, but I can't retaliate in the same way as she did? Is that the best way?" Henry stared at him with scarlet eyes.

Shane closed his eyes. "I didn't mean that, I just..."

Henry gritted his back teeth and said firmly, "Okay, you don't need to say anything anymore. I've made up my mind, and no one can stop me!"

Shane sighed and closed his mouth.

Jacqueline killed Yvonne, so she had to pay for it. 1

If Jacqueline was thrown into prison, that type of punishment would obviously not be enough.

Perhaps Henry was right to do this.

As Shane thought about it, he gave in and pushed up his glasses. "Since this is your decision, then I won't say anything. But I hope you do it without leaving any trail behind, so no one can track you down."

"You don't need to tell me that, I will!" Henry squinted.

Shane scratched his hair. "When will you disclose

Yvonne's death?"
