CHAPTER 475 THE WHEREABOUTS OF DOMINIC CONRAD
It was unfamiliar because the name once appeared briefly in his life.
And it was familiar because Joe and Shane often mentioned the name in front of him six years ago.
They said that Yvonne Frey was his wife and the woman he loved the most, but she died, most likely in Jacqueline's hands.
But he forgot that Yvonne Frey. He only remembered that Yvonne was married to him and that he was married. As for anything else that Shane said, he didn't remember.
He didn’t respond even when they said that the person he loved was Yvonne Frey because he knew very well that he had forgotten what happened in the past few years when he married Yvonne. So how could he still love her? He didn’t care at all who killed her or how she died.
However, his heart was always empty in the silent night, as if he had lost something important, which he never mentioned to anyone.
Now that he saw this woman who looked almost exactly the same as Yvonne, he was surprised to find that his heart was beating and the feeling of emptiness suddenly filled up.
What exactly was going on?
Henry pursed his lips and walked towards the woman without thinking.
The woman heard the footsteps and turned around to look at him. When she saw him, she was taken aback for a while. Then, she gave him a polite smile, turned her head back, and continued to talk to the other end o f the phone.
Henry took a few steps away from the woman. His eyes were fixed on her as if he was confirming something.
After a while, the woman turned to him when she was done with the phone call. "What can I do for you, sir?”
She asked with a very magnetic voice.
No!
This wasn’t Yvonne's voice!
Henry subconsciously rejected the woman's voice in front of him.
He wasn’t sure how he knew Yvonne’s voice was different from the woman in front of him when he couldn't remember how Yvonne looked.
Seeing that Henry didn't answer, her eyes were calm and she didn't know what she was thinking. The cold light in Yvonne's eyes flashed and it disappeared right away, returning to reality. Content © 2024.
"Since there's nothing that you need from me, then I'll leave first. Goodbye!" She smiled politely again and turned away.
The smile on her face disappeared the moment she turned around, leaving only a deep chill.
Tonight was really unexpected for her.
She thought that she would only meet Henry on the day they discussed the cooperation.
She didn't expect to meet him at the dinner tonight.
What a coincidence!
Back in the room, Yvonne pulled her chair and sat down.
Shane handed her the napkin. "Why did it take so long for you to come back? Theo wanted me to take him to you.”
"I’m sorry, my mother called me just now and after that, there was a call from the client, so I came back late. I'm sorry, baby." Yvonne held Theo’s face and kissed him.
Shane shook his head and smiled, "Hurry and eat, the steak will be cold.”
"Okay," Yvonne answered and picked up the knife and fork.
While cutting the steak, she suddenly said, "I just met Henry Lancaster."
"What?" Shane was surprised. "You guys met?” "You can say so. I was on the phone in the corridor. He suddenly came over and stood there staring at me. I heard him calling my former name. Has his memory recovered?" Yvonne asked after eating a piece of steak.
Shane put down his knife and fork and said in a deep voice, "No. Normally, he should’ve recovered swiftly if he just lost his memory due to a blood clot. But I'm not sure why he hasn’t recovered in the past six years. Since he called your name and recognized you, perhaps he remembered the moment when you guys first got married."
Henry lost his memory six years ago when Jacqueline returned to Canada.
So he remembered his three-year marriage with Yvonne, but he forgot everything between Jacqueline and Yvonne including his feelings for Yvonne after her return.
Yvonne wiped the corner of her mouth and said," Maybe, but he didn't quite recognize me."
Shane looked at her. "What do you mean?"
Yvonne replied, ’’Didn’t he believe that I was dead? So now when he sees me, he’s doubting if I’m Yvonne Frey, but he can't guarantee that I must be that Yvonne Frey."
Shane nodded slightly. "That's right, but you didn't show anything unusual, did you?"
Yvonne laughed, "You think I've managed a subsidiary company by myself in these years for nothing? I’ve done a good job in emotional expression
management. I didn't show any other reaction when I saw him. Don't worry."
Shane nodded. "That’s good."
Yvonne took a sip of the corn soup and turned to look at her son next to her. "Don’t you want to eat, Theo?"
Theo shook his head and continued to play with the Rubik's Cube in his hand.
Yvonne knew that he didn't want to eat and didn't persuade him.
Theo was on medicine and it was really bad for him to eat too much. She decided to make him some milk when they were back at the hotel.
"Speaking of..." Shane spoke again, but his words were prolonged as if he had some concerns.
Yvonne turned her eyes from Theo to him. "What’s wrong?"
Shane said, "It's Jacqueline’s daughter, Anna's birthday today. Henry should be here for her celebration."
Yvonne snorted coldly, "To celebrate someone else's daughter’s birthday? He has the nerve to do so. It seems that Jacqueline is here too, huh?"
"She should be." Shane shrugged his shoulders.
Yvonne pursed her lips, "Did they have a good relationship in the past six years? Why didn’t Henry ask Jacqueline to give him a baby?"
"This..." Shane scratched his head. "It's strange." "What’s so strange?" Yvonne put down her knife and fork and looked at him.
Shane touched his chin and replied, "After Henry lost all the memories of you, he regained his feelings for Jacqueline. Logically speaking, their relationship before this should be very good. Unexpectedly, Henry was somewhat indifferent to Jacqueline."
"Indifferent?" Yvonne raised her eyebrows. "Why is he indifferent? Didn't he fall in love with Jacqueline again?" 1
Shane said, "Who knows what he thinks? Anyway, his attitude towards Jacqueline isn't like the attitude he should have towards a wife, but more like a friend, indifferent and polite. He's only very gentle towards Anna."
The corner of Yvonne's mouth stretched out with a curve of disdain. "Gentle? I didn't see him happy when I was pregnant with his first child. I didn't see his excitement when I was pregnant with Theo and yet he's kind to other people's children."
Shane pushed his glasses up and said nothing.
Yvonne didn’t want to make any more fuss on this topic. If she continued, the only person who felt uncomfortable would be her.
She took a breath and changed the topic. "By the way, Shane, do you know where Dominic Conrad has gone?"
She had been paying attention to Henry and Jacqueline in recent years, but she forgot to check on Dominic Conrad.
When she remembered, she realized that Dominic was gone.
Shane pondered and answered, "Jacqueline seems to have sent Dominic away."
"Sent away? Where did he go?" Yvonne curled her eyebrows.
Shane shook his head lightly. "I don't know. I've cut ties with Henry in the past few years and I don't dare t o follow them at will. Otherwise, it will arouse their suspicion and find you through me. So, I’m sorry..."
"It’s alright." Yvonne squeezed the corners of her mouth. Although she was disappointed, she could understand where he came from.
"I don't know exactly where Dominic is, but I can give you some clues.”
"What clue?" Yvonne's spirit was lifted.
