CHAPTER 553 SUE'S HELP
"A jewelry designer," Henry replied coldly without concealing the disgust in his voice.
Yvonne's eyes flickered. "Have you ever thought of sending Anna back to her biological father?"
"Huh?" Henry looked at her. "Send her back to her biological father?"
Yvonne said, "Yeah, I'm thinking that since Miss Conrad can’t teach Anna well, and as a stepfather, sometimes it's not easy to educate Anna too. Why don’t you just send Anna to her biological father?"
After speaking, she immediately lowered her eyelids t o cover the dull look in her eyes.
She said these words on purpose, deliberately provoking Henry to have the idea of sending Anna away.
Although she hated him, she had to admit that he was Theo's father. Since he was Theo's father, then he could only be Theo’s father alone. She would never allow him to have other children besides Theo.
So Anna had to be driven away as she didn't want to allow anyone to take Theo's position.
And she vowed that as long as he sent Anna away, she could ignore what Anna did to Theo, but if he didn't send Anna away, then he couldn’t blame her.
She only gave him one day to consider it.
Henry didn't know what Yvonne was thinking, but he was somewhat interested in her proposal. Even under the influence, he hesitated. "But Anna doesn’t know that her biological father is someone else."
Yvonne reminded, "So what? Tell her directly. She has the right to know her real identity. Even if you don't tell her now, she will know it sooner or later. She's young now and she may be able to accept it soon if you tell her now. But if you tell her when she grows u p, she may not be able to accept it."
The Lancaster family had great wealth - she didn't believe that no one would be tempted.
Anna Lancaster was young now and may not have the concept of wealth, but when she grew up, she would definitely focus on the Lancaster family's wealth.
She didn’t want Anna to compete with Theo, so she had to remove Anna as a threat in the cradle.
Henry rubbed his temples and replied, "I'll think about it."
Yvonne poured him a glass of water and said, "You should decide quickly. Miss Conrad and Anna have affected the Lancaster family and the Lancaster Group negatively during this period of time. They're no longer suitable to stay in the Lancaster family.
Otherwise, they'll just cause more trouble.”
"I'm already thinking about divorcing Jacqueline,"
Henry suddenly said and looked into her eyes.
Yvonne was taken aback. "Considering a divorce?"
"Yeah." Henry nodded.
Yvonne’s eyes flickered slightly. "When do you plan to divorce Jacqueline then?"
She clenched the wine glass in her hand and resisted the excitement in her heart.
She had always wanted them to divorce, even in her dreams.
Because once they were divorced, the Lancaster family no longer protected Jacqueline and Yvonne could finally get her revenge!
Instead of answering Yvonne's question, Henry glanced at her clenched hand and asked, "Do you really want me to get a divorce?"
Yvonne answered without thinking, "Yes."
Henry's eyes overflowed with a subtle smile, "Why?"
Yvonne said, "Because Miss Conrad isn't good enough for you."
"Is there no other reason than this?” Henry stared at her closely.
Yvonne was inexplicably flustered and she subconsciously avoided his gaze. "There is."
"What is it?" Henry's eyes were fixated on her.
Yvonne rubbed her cheeks so that they became pink. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
She pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I'm not telling you."
Henry looked at her with his deep eyes and thin lips. Right when he was about to speak, the phone in his pocket rang, breaking the faint ambiguity in the office.
Henry's face turned sour instantly and he was unhappy with the caller.
Henry took out his mobile phone and spoke to the person on the other end of the phone in a bad tone," Hello?"
On the other end of the phone, Joe heard the faint anger in his words and he was confused. He didn't understand how he had offended him.
However, Joe didn’t think much about it. He quickly adjusted his mentality and said with a serious tone, "M r. Lancaster, you asked me to investigate the things that Jacqueline has done in the past six years. I've encountered some problems and I need you to come over in person."
Henry asked with a frown, "Where are you?"
Joe replied, "Jacqueline's villa. There's one more thing. Dominic Conrad is missing."
"What?" Henry's face sank. "When did he disappear?" 1
Joe replied with some embarrassment, "I’m not sure. We’ve never paid attention to Dominic Conrad. When I investigated Jacqueline this time, I checked up on Dominic Conrad along the way and found out that he's
missing. I contacted the villagers in Dominic Conrad's hometown and they said that a group of people went t o their village and took him away many days ago."
Henry asked in a deep voice, "Who sent those people?"
Listening to the conversation, Yvonne picked up the red wine and pretended to be drinking. In fact, she used the wine glass to block the corner of her mouth.
Joe sighed helplessly, "I don’t know. The villagers can't tell the characteristics of those people."
Henry tightened his thin lips. "I got it. I'll come right away."
Maybe Jacqueline sent her people to take Dominic Conrad away.
He always knew that Jacqueline had taken all of Dominic Conrad's money.
But it was their father and daughter's business, so he didn’t want to interfere.
Joe replied, "Okay."
Henry hung up the phone and looked at Yvonne. As soon as he was about to speak, Yvonne put down her wine glass and said, "I've heard it all. You should go."
Henry let out a grunt of agreement and said, "I'm sorry, I’ll go now. See you soon."
Yvonne nodded. "Sure."
Henry put his phone away and walked out of her office.
After he left, Yvonne gently swirled the red wine in her hand - her eyes were obscure.
After a while, she suddenly took out her mobile phone, scrolled to Sue's number, and sent a text message. She asked to meet in the hospital an hour later to discuss something.
Soon, Sue replied to the message and agreed to meet.
Seeing this, Yvonne smiled, put down her wine glass, tidied up her clothes, picked up her bag, and left the office.
She couldn’t drive since she drank. Lisa went to the Wadkins Group to do the handover but never came back. She had no choice but to take the taxi.
Half an hour later, she arrived at the hospital.
Sue hadn’t arrived yet, so she went to Theo's ward first.
Shane happened to be in Theo’s ward, applying medicine on Theo's body and face.
Theo's mood wasn't as excited as yesterday, but he allowed them to touch him. However, when he was touched, he looked like a doll that had lost his soul. He sat on the hospital bed motionlessly
without blinking his eyes. He stared at the bedsheet with a pair of empty eyes, which made people worried.
Yvonne walked into the ward and gently called Shane, "Shane."
Shane turned his head around and said, "You’re here."
"Yeah." Yvonne nodded, then looked at Theo on the bed, and her eyes immediately turned red.
Shane sighed, "Theo has now completely returned to the state where he was a year ago."
"I know. I can see it." Yvonne walked over and held Theo in her arms. She felt a prickly pain in her heart.
Shane threw away the used cotton swab on Theo and asked, "Have you contacted Dr. Tom? When will he come over?"
