CHAPTER 598 VISITING MASTER LANCASTER'S GRAVE

"Hold me so you won't fall," Henry said.

Yvonne was surprised, but she agreed and took his arm.

Henry folded his arms slightly so that she would lean closer to him.

In the car, Yvonne put down her purse, bent over, and squeezed her ankles. copyrighted © content.

Henry was wearing his seat belt. He turned his head and glanced at her. "Did you twist your ankle?"

"No, it’s just a little uncomfortable," Yvonne sat up straight and answered with a smile.

Henry said, "As long as you're not hurt."

"Don't worry. I have you by my side. I won’t get hurt. B y the way, I'm just curious, why did you come to pick me up personally?" Yvonne looked at him with her arms crossed.

Henry's eyes drooped slightly. "You haven't been to the family residence, so I'm worried you might get lost. H

"Really?" Yvonne didn't believe him.

There were many people who had never been to the family residence, so she was obviously not the only one.

"Well, this is just one of the reasons. I'll tell you the other reason at the party later." Henry moved the gear and started the car.

When he said that, Yvonne stopped asking. She turned her head and looked out the window.

They finally arrived at the Lancaster family residence.

After getting off the car, Yvonne stood in front of the gate of the house with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

After six years, she finally came to this place again and she had mixed emotions.

"Let's go." Henry handed the car keys to the bodyguard who was guarding the door and walked to Yvonne.

Yvonne quickly gathered her thoughts and nodded.

After entering the family residence, she pretended like it was her first time there and looked around.

After a quick look, she realized that nothing had changed here. It was just like when she left six years ago.

The only difference was her identity.

Six years ago, she was the lady of the house, but now, she was just an ordinary guest.

"The party hasn't started. You can grab a bite here, I’ll talk to the other guests," Henry said to Yvonne after taking her to the banquet hall of the family residence.

Yvonne gathered her thoughts and responded, "Go

ahead."

"If you need anything, just ask the servant at the banquet, or call me." Henry reminded her.

Yvonne gave him a push. "Okay, go ahead. I know what to do."

Seeing her urging him to leave, Henry pursed his thin lips and turned to leave.

After he left, the smile on Yvonne's face turned cold. She picked up a glass of red wine and quietly left the banquet hall to enter a quiet courtyard.

When she walked outside the courtyard, the bodyguard who was guarding the gate did not verify her identity before letting her in. It was obvious someone had already told the bodyguard about her.

Yvonne entered the courtyard and saw a thick plush carpet in the middle of the courtyard. On the carpet, a cute little boy was sitting on it while holding a big Rubik's Cube with his small hands and fiddling with it.

Yvonne covered her mouth excitedly when she saw the boy.

Theo actually started playing the Rubik's Cube again!

Theo had never played it since his autism worsened.

But now that Theo had started playing the Rubik's Cube again, it meant his autism had since improved a lot.

As Yvonne thought about this, she took off her shoes and went to Theo. She bent down and held him in her arms. "Theo, Mommy misses you so much."

Theo stopped moving his hand and blinked before he opened his mouth slightly and said, "Mom..."

His voice was small and soft, like a child who had just learned how to speak. If she did not listen carefully, she probably could not hear it.

But Yvonne heard it and her mind instantly went blank. It took her a long time to recover from the shock.

She put her arms around Theo with her trembling hands and looked at Theo with excitement and surprise. "Theo, did you just call me 'Mommy' just now?"

Theo tilted his head and did not say anything else.

Yvonne was not disappointed by his reaction. She hugged Theo tighter and shed tears of joy. "This is great, Theo. You can speak now. You called me ' Mommy'..."

"Yeah, Theo has changed a lot in the past few days. He can make some simple sounds almost every day." At this moment, an old and kind voice suddenly sounded.

Yvonne heard the voice and her body froze for a moment. She slowly raised her head, and her tears could not stop flowing. "Frederick..."

"Madam, long time no see." Frederick smiled lovingly a then

With tears in her eyes, Yvonne could barely smile. "It's been a long time since I last saw you, Frederick. I'm sorry I haven't visited even though I've been back for s o long."

"It's okay, Sue told me about everything you went through in the past six years. Madam, you’ve been through so much." Frederick stepped forward and looked at her with sympathy.

Yvonne broke down immediately when she saw the look in his eyes. She cried even more, "Frederick, I want to get revenge against Henry. Aren't you mad at me?"

Frederick shook his head. "Mr. Lancaster deserves it. I think even if Master Lancaster was still alive, he'd definitely support you too, madam." 1

"Grandpa... I'm sorry for not fulfilling Grandpa’s expectation of me." Yvonne covered her face.

Frederick knew what she meant, and sighed with emotion, "When master passed away, I hoped you and Mr. Lancaster could live together happily, but no one would've expected those things to happen later.

Madam, it's a blessing that you're still alive. You didn't let Master Lancaster down."

Yvonne sniffled, "Can I pay my respects to Grandpa?"

"Yes, but the cemetery is a little far away, and it'll be too late for you to go there. Let's go to the memorial hall." Frederick nodded.

Yvonne wiped her tears. "Okay, please lead the way, Frederick."

After she said that, she stood up and picked Theo up before following Frederick.

After paying her respects to the old man, they returned to the courtyard. Half an hour had already passed, and the party had been going on for a while.

Henry frowned and walked towards the courtyard. When he saw Yvonne holding Theo and talking to Frederick, he was shocked and his eyes darkened.

She was here!

Just after he welcomed the guests, he went to look for her. He searched the entire banquet hall but he could not find her. He called her but she did not answer either.

He thought she had gone back, but he did not expect t o see her here.

Moreover, she was holding Theo and having a chat with Frederick, which made him even more suspicious.

Theo would not normally accept a stranger's hug because of his autism. So far, in the entire Lancaster family, only Sue, Frederick, and Henry were able to hold Theo.

He was surprised to see that Shannon could do it too. Didn't she say that she had only met Theo a few times and she was not familiar with him?

Furthermore, the way Frederick was looking at Shannon was full of kindness and love - it did not seem like they were strangers. He obviously knew her.

As Henry thought about this, he walked over with doubts in his heart. "What are you guys talking about?"

"You're here, Mr. Lancaster." Frederick stopped talking and looked at Henry.

Yvonne went along and said, "I was talking to Frederick about Theo."

"You know Frederick?" Henry asked as he narrowed his eyes.

Yvonne's heart sank. She knew that he must have seen her talking to Frederick earlier and was suspicious. She smiled calmly, "We just met. Just now, Frederick noticed that I looked very similar to your ex-wife, so we chatted for a while."

"Really?" Henry looked at Frederick.

Frederick nodded. "Yes."

Henry pursed his lower lip. They did not know if he believed them or not. After a while, he asked again," Weren't you in the banquet hall? Why did you come here?"
