CHAPTER 505 CALL ME BY MY NAME
"Yes." Yvonne nodded.
Henry opened the door and got out of the car. He then walked around the front of the car and helped her from the passenger seat. "Don't you have a house in Vancouver?"
"I do." Yvonne replied in detail as she walked along with him, "It's getting cleaned and ventilated. I should be able to move in tomorrow. I've been staying at a hotel for the time being."
So that was why.
Henry suddenly raised his chin and didn't ask further as he helped her into the hotel.
After entering, Yvonne told him which room she lived i n.
Henry sent her to the door of the suite. "Access card please."
Yvonne was startled. "Mr. Lancaster, do you want to come in?"
Henry's eyes flashed slightly and he didn’t answer, but he wanted to.
He wanted to see where she lived.
Yvonne frowned when she realized Henry's thoughts about going in for a visit.
What was the matter with this man?
How many days had they known each other?
It was quite inappropriate for him to do that after only knowing each other for a few days.
Could it be because she pretended to show interest in him, so he started having an interest in her as well? 1
If that was the case, it could actually be a good thing. She would be more confident in making him fall in love with her in the shortest possible amount of time.
Then, she could ask him to divorce Jacqueline so she could make Jacqueline pay her price!
As Yvonne thought about this, her breathing became heavy, and she almost showed the excitement in her heart on her face.
But fortunately, she was still rational and didn’t lose control, or else Henry would definitely see something strange about her and have doubts.
"Here." Yvonne took the key card out of her purse and handed it to Henry.
Since he wanted to go in and have a seat, she would let him in.
She planned to make him fall in love with her again, s o how could she refuse a small request like that? copyrighted © content.
Furthermore, Theo was still in kindergarten, so she was not worried that he might find out about Theo's existence.
Henry had no idea what Yvonne was thinking, so he took the key card and swiped it on the lock.
The door opened with a beep.
Henry helped her in and onto the couch in the living room, and then glanced through everything in the living room quietly.
When he saw a few Rubik's Cubes and some other toys on the coffee table in the living room, Henry was surprised, "Do you play with all these?"
Yvonne shook her head. "I don't, but someone does."
"Who?" Henry frowned, and the first reaction in his mind was that it was probably a man.
Was it her boyfriend?
Henry clenched his hand abruptly as he was starting t o feel a little uncomfortable.
Yvonne picked up a Rubik's Cube and played with it." A very cute kid."
"Kid?" Henry raised his eyebrows.
Yvonne said, "Yes, a very cute and lovely kid. He's only five years old this year, and he's extremely smart. I like him very much, so I bought him a lot of Rubik's Cubes and toys."
When Henry heard this, his clenched fist suddenly loosened, and the uncomfortable feeling in his heart immediately disappeared.
It turned out to be a kid.
It was probably the child of a tenant who lived on the same floor as her.
"Do you like children very much?" Henry asked.
Yvonne stroked the Rubik's Cube. "Yes, children are the cutest in the world. They're pure, innocent, and beautiful. Who wouldn't like them?"
Henry didn’t answer, because he did not know how to go on.
He couldn't tell her that he was one of those people who didn't like children.
It took him three to four years to accept Anna, and it was not because he fell in love with Anna, but seeing Anna would remind him of a child.
He didn't know why the phantom of a child would appear in his mind. Every time the phantom of that child appeared, he felt very guilty and sorry for the child.
The child looked about the same age as Anna. It was not because he loved Anna-it was because he projected his love for the child on Anna instead.
He remembered that Sue once told him that when Yvonne died, she was pregnant with his child. Maybe that phantom was the child in Yvonne's belly. If the child was still alive, he or she would be about the same age as Anna.
"Mr. Lancaster, why aren't you saying anything?" Yvonne saw that Henry was in a daze so she stretched out her hand and waved in front of him.
Henry rubbed his temples. "Nothing. It's getting late, Miss Smith..."
"You’re being too polite, Mr. Lancaster. We’ve known each other for a few days, so we’re friends now. You can call me Shan. My parents, brothers, and friends call me Shan," Yvonne said with a smile and her eyes gleamed.
Henry didn’t expect her to suddenly have a nickname, so he was dazed for a few seconds.
After snapping out of his daze, he subconsciously nodded and called her ’Shan.’
He also thought that her nickname was quite fitting.
Yvonne smiled deeply, "Then I shall call you by your name too. How about Henry?"
Henry looked down. "Okay!"
To this day, Jacqueline was the only one in the entire world who would call him Henry.
But somehow, he felt that the way Yvonne called him was much better than Jacqueline.
It was almost as if this name was meant to be called out by Yvonne.
"Then it's settled. I’ll call you Henry, and you’ll call me Shan." Yvonne clapped her hands with joy.
Henry had no objections.
After that, he ordered a staff from the hotel to take care of her and then left.
As soon as he left, Yvonne no longer had a smile on her face, and it returned to her indifferent expression.
"Oh, Henry, Henry. You're disappointing me!" she muttered disdainfully.
In the past, when she first became his wife, he didn’t even allow her to call him by his name.
It wasn't until three years later when he wanted her bone marrow for Jacqueline, and after returning to the villa to live with her for a while, he finally allowed her to call him by his name.
But now, he actually allowed someone who had only known him for a few days to call him by his name. Even if it was herself, she was still very upset. 2
However, that was fine. The more special Shannon was to him, the earlier she would make him fall for her.
After thinking about it, Yvonne stretched her waist. After taking a look at her swollen ankle, she took out her cell phone and made a call.
"Hey, Shane." The call connected and Yvonne spoke first. Her expression was more genuine now, unlike when she was in front of Henry where she would have to fake a smile.
"Yvonne, anything?" Shane's energizing voice sounded.
Yvonne said with embarrassment, "Well, I may need you to pick Theo up again today. I can't go today because I twisted my ankle."
"What? A twisted ankle? Is it serious?" Shane's voice became tense when he heard that she was injured. 1
Yvonne was moved by his care and concern, but at the same time, her pressure also doubled.
Because the more he cared about her, the more she felt sorry for him.
She just couldn’t reciprocate his feelings.
"It's not serious, it's just a dislocation. I've already seen a doctor," Yvonne replied softly.
Shane breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. Alright, I'll go to the kindergarten to pick Theo up when it’s time."
"Thank you very much Shane." Yvonne was grateful.
Shane smiled, "No worries. I'm Theo's godfather, so I should pick him up from school anyway. By the way, where are you now?"
