CHAPTER 623 START OF THE ARREST

Theo didn’t answer. He stood up and walked towards Yvonne's left instead.

On her left was the bed.

Yvonne didn't know what he was going to do, so she just looked at him without speaking.

Then, Theo lay down on the side of the bed and pushed her in as he tried to make her sleep closer to the center of the bed.

Yvonne wiggled her body inwardly without noticing that Henry was behind her. She moved into Henry's arms just like that.

Yvonne's body tightened when she felt his chest behind her.

She suddenly understood what Theo was doing. He was trying to push her and Henry together.

"Theo..."

Theo pretended not to hear Yvonne's call. He closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Yvonne was helpless and didn't dare to move. She feared that if she moved, she would touch the man behind her.

However, the man suddenly laughed lowly, "Theo obviously wants us to reconcile."

Yvonne didn't reply.

Henry went on, "Theo wants a complete family." "Really? I don't think so!" The emotions in Yvonne's eyes were incomprehensible.

Henry suddenly stretched out his arm and put it on her waist to embrace her in his arms.

Yvonne was so startled that she almost got up. "What are you doing?"

"Shh!" Henry motioned her to be quiet. "Speak softly because Theo is asleep. Don't worry, I won't touch you. I just want to hold you. Since Theo wants us to reconcile, do you have the heart to let him down?"

Yvonne froze and her voice became a little softer," Hmph. Do you think that I don't know what you're thinking about? Stop using Theo as an excuse and put your hands down."

Henry didn't let go of her.

Yvonne raised her eyebrows and raised her hand out o f the bed as she reached out to pull Henry's hand off her.

But before she could even touch his hand, he turned around and held her hand instead.

"You..."

"Enough, you're going to wake Theo up." Henry reminded her.

Yvonne looked at Theo who actually opened his eyes.

"Theo," Yvonne called out to Theo.

Theo yawned, "Sleep!"

Yvonne saw his sleepy eyes and knew that he really wanted to sleep. So she could only stop bickering with Henry and wait for Theo to fall asleep again before pulling her hand out.

However, she was already asleep before the time came. Henry looked at her sleeping face and smiled quietly. She would only let him do this when she was asleep. Henry pulled the blanket up

and covered Yvonne. He then propped up his upper body and kissed her on the forehead. "Goodnight."

After he said that, he turned off the light in the room and pulled her into his arms before sleeping.

The next day, Henry was woken up by a phone call. copyrighted © content.

After he woke up, he took his cell phone and hung up immediately because he was afraid of waking up the mother and son.

After making sure that they were not awake, he gently removed his hand from Yvonne's waist, put on his clothes, and got out of bed. He walked out to the balcony and called the number back.

The phone call was from Joe, and Joe quickly answered his call.

"Mr. Lancaster."

"What's the matter?" Henry squeezed the bridge of his nose.

Joe said in a serious voice, "Dr. Summers just contacted me and said that the first batch of protective clothing and masks are ready. They've been sent to the army stationed in that place."

"Great. Did the army get all the materials?" Henry asked.

Joe was with the army so that he could get information about the situation at all times.

Joe nodded, "Yes, they've received it. But because this i s only the first batch, so not everyone got it. However, more than half of them got it, so now the top level of the military is already discussing how they will arrest those people from the organization. Mr. Lancaster, do you want to come over and have a look?"

The corner of Henry's mouth raised coldly as he said," Of course, I'll be there right away."

"Okay," Joe replied.

After the call ended, Henry put away his phone and returned to the room.

Yvonne just woke up and saw him coming in from the balcony with his cell phone. Her eyes flashed as she asked, "Were you on the phone?" "Did I wake you up?" Henry nodded.

Yvonne stretched. "No, I woke up by myself."

She then squeezed her neck and got up from the bed.

Henry walked towards her. "The call earlier was from Joe."

Yvonne was putting on her shoes. When she heard this, she stopped immediately and looked at him." Joe?"

She knew that Joe's most recent mission was to be with the army and to inquire about the organization.

So since Joe called, there must be some news from the organization.

When Henry saw the eager look in the woman's eyes, she smiled slightly and he told her about the phone call.

Yvonne almost yelled when she said, "I want to go too!"

How could she miss such a momentous arrest? She wanted to see Jacqueline’s arrest with her own eyes.

However, Henry kept a straight face and disagreed, "N o, you can't go."

"Why?" Yvonne was a little unhappy.

Henry explained, "Now that many people in that organization have been infected with the virus, the military wants to arrest everyone in that organization, which means that those who are infected will also be arrested. Even if they pass on the protective clothing, they may not be able to guarantee that you won’t get

infected, so I can't let you take this risk."

Yvonne felt warm in her heart when she heard that and she was not upset anymore, but the expression on her face remained as she asked, "What about you? Are you going there?"

"I'll go over and take a look."

"No. What if you get infected when you go there?" Yvonne frowned when she heard that he was going but asked her not to go. She quickly stopped him.

Henry smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm going there to meet the top-level military personnel and I will not be in contact with those soldiers, so I won’t get infected. But you're going there to talk to those soldiers so that you can witness Jacqueline’s arrest, so I won't let you go."

Yvonne was completely speechless after hearing that.

It was because he was right. The reason why she wanted to go was that she wanted to see Jacqueline being arrested with her own eyes.

If she wanted to see it personally, she would most likely come into contact with those soldiers, and those soldiers would have direct contact with the people in the organization. They may or may not be infected.

But the top-level military personnel were different. They only needed to give orders for the arrest. They didn't need to do the work personally, so they would not be infected.

Yvonne suddenly felt relieved when she thought about it.

She sighed, "Well, I won't go, but you have to be careful to not get into contact with those soldiers."

As Henry changed his clothes, he responded to her, "I know, but I'm glad you care about me."

Yvonne turned her head and her expression seemed unnatural. "Who cares about you? I'm just worried that you might be in contact with those soldiers and possibly infect Theo, Frederick, and Sue."

"What about you?" Henry looked at her. "Why didn't you count yourself too? Don't worry, even if I get infected, do you think I'll come back and spread it to you?"

Yvonne pouted, "Anyway, go wash up. I'm going back t o my room."

Right after she said that, she walked towards the door.

Henry looked at her as she was leaving. The corner of his mouth curled up as he looked at her tenderly.

This woman obviously cared about him in her heart, but she refused to admit it.

He wondered when she would change her behavior of speaking with her tongue in her cheek.
