CHAPTER 476 FREDERICK
Shane stretched and said, "There are only a few places Dominic can go. He can either go abroad, Jacqueline's mother’s hometown, or your mother’s hometown.
These are the few places that are safest for him."
"Hometown..." Yvonne said in a low voice and her eyes flickered.
A few seconds later, she calmed her expression and lifted her chin slightly. "Okay, I'll ask someone to find out. However, I still can’t figure it out. Six years ago, Henry lost his memory, and everyone thinks I'm dead. Why did Jacqueline send Dominic away?"
At that time, Dominic and his daughter shouldn't have to worry that anyone that might retaliate against them.
"Well... I don’t really know, but Jacqueline and her father were probably afraid that Henry might regain his memory someday." Shane guessed.
Yvonne laughed lightly, "Maybe. I’m done."
Shane put down the glass of water in his hand and asked, "Shall we go now?"
Yvonne did not answer but looked at the quiet Theo instead.
Theo noticed the look in her eyes, so he raised his head and glanced at her.
After reading what Theo was trying to see through his eyes, Yvonne stood up and said, "Let's go, Theo wants t o go back too."
"Okay. It's late now, it's time to go back." Shane nodded and got up too.
The three of them left the dining room together.
Yvonne handed Theo to Shane before going to the front desk to settle the bill.
After that, the three of them got out of the restaurant and went to their car on the side of the road. As soon a s they got into the car, Yvonne saw something and she narrowed her eyes.
"Wait a minute, don't start the car just yet," Yvonne said to Shane as she looked out the window.
Shane turned to look at her in confusion. "What's the matter?"
Yvonne did not answer.
Shane noticed her strange behavior so he looked in the direction of her gaze. When he saw the three figures not too far away, he was shocked.
"They left around the same time too," Shane said lightly as he released the steering wheel and leaned back on the seat.
The corner of Yvonne's mouth curved upwards coldly. "Yes, but fortunately we came out first." Content © 2024.
Fortunately, they got out earlier and got in the car. Otherwise, Henry would’ve seen Theo already.
Since she looked similar to how she used to look, and Theo looked so similar to Henry, it would be easy for people to tell that they were mother and son.
But the image of the three figures walking side by side outside looked like an eyesore!
It made her especially unhappy seeing how Henry was holding Jacqueline's daughter, and she didn't know how Theo would react if he saw it.
As Yvonne thought about it, she looked away and turned to look at Theo beside her instead.
"Theo, look outside." Yvonne pointed out the window.
Theo’s gaze followed her finger, and when he saw the scene, there was no expression on his delicate face. H e calmly looked away and continued to lower his head and play with his Rubik's Cube. It was as if everything else was less interesting than the Rubik's Cube in his hand.
This made Yvonne feel a little disappointed.
She was disappointed that Theo was not angry at all when he saw that his biological father was being kind to another child. 2
She wished that Theo could express his emotions and sadness. That would at least show that Theo's autism was getting better, but it didn't happen. Theo's reaction was very calm.
This also showed that Henry was really useless and had no effect in regards to Theo's condition! 3
Shane understood why Yvonne did what she did.
He was also silently observing earlier.
He secretly sighed, and he didn't know whether he should pity Henry or sympathize with him.
Henry's wife who once loved him so deeply now wanted revenge. Moreover, his biological son had no feelings for him.
Hmm... Henry seemed to have quite a miserable life!
"Let’s go, Shane. There's nothing to see," Yvonne rolled up the car window and said to the man in the driver's seat.
Shane gathered his thoughts and regained his senses. "Okay, sit tight."
After he said that, he pulled the gear and stepped on the accelerator.
The car moved forward and stopped in front of Henry's car.
Henry was bending over to fasten Anna's seat belt when he suddenly heard a honk behind him as if it was done on purpose.
He frowned and straightened his body before turning around to look, but what he saw was a familiar car.
Was that... Shane's car?
Why was he here?
Before he could really think about it, Jacqueline
asked, "Henry, what're you looking at?"
Henry pursed his thin lips. "It’s nothing. Let’s go."
"Oh," Jacqueline responded as she glanced suspiciously in the direction he had just looked at. She then opened the door and got into the car.
Henry sat in the driver's seat and fastened his seat belt. He turned to look at the restaurant they just left and his thoughts were all over the place.
That woman... Who was it?
Was it Yvonne, or was it not?
If so, why was she still alive? And it seemed like she didn't even know him!
If not, who was she? Why was she so much like Yvonne!
"Henry, what are you thinking about?" Jacqueline's voice sounded from the back seat again, interrupting his thoughts.
Henry pursed his lower lip, displeased. "What's the matter?"
"There’s a car behind us." Jacqueline pointed back.
Henry glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that there were indeed cars that were flashing their headlights.
"Take care of Anna, I'll start the car now." He massaged his temples and reminded her.
Jacqueline nodded. "Okay."
After he started the car, Henry kept a straight face and it was obvious he had something on his mind.
Although Jacqueline noticed it, she didn't ask too much because she also felt heavy-hearted.
When they got back to the villa, it was almost ten o'clock already.
Sue heard the sound of their car and quickly opened the door to greet them.
Sue took Henry's coat and said with a smile, "Sir, you're finally back."
However, she did not pay any attention to Jacqueline and her daughter who got out of the car afterward. It was as though she didn’t see them.
She never saw Jacqueline as Henry’s wife and that unlovable fat girl as Henry's daughter.
In her heart, only the previous madam and the child i n her belly were the rightful madam and daughter.
Unfortunately...
With nothing she could do, Sue sighed and the smile o n her face had faded a lot.
Jacqueline obviously noticed Sue's attitude towards her and her daughter.
The old woman never liked them. She never served them, and would often give them a look.
Had it not been for the status of the old woman in Henry's heart, she would have driven the old woman out.
As Jacqueline thought about it, she glared at Sue. After she greeted Henry, she pulled Anna into the villa.
Sue rolled her eyes as she stared at the mother and daughter's backs, and scoffed in disdain.
When Henry saw it, his eyes flashed. He had no intention to correct her, nor did he intend to defend Jacqueline and her daughter.
No one knew what he was thinking about.
"You mentioned earlier that I finally came back. What's the matter?" Henry asked as he adjusted his sleeves.
Sue suddenly became serious and hung his coat on her arm. "Half an hour ago, Frederick called."
"Frederick?" Henry pursed his lips. "Is it because of the incident last time?"
"Yes. I think Frederick is really determined this time and he wants to go back to his hometown for good," Sue said emotionally.
Henry closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his gaze was deep, "Go tell him later that I don't agree, and ask him to stay in the old house for his retirement. Period!"
After he said that, he left to enter the villa.
Sue followed him and said, "But sir, Frederick is determined to leave this time."
"Determined?" Henry paused. "Did he say something?"
