Honorable Hubby Behind Me novel Chapter 41

Yvonne rolled her eyes. How was she supposed to be happy when others misunderstood her? She felt suffocated because of it.

"By the way, there’s a group of people causing lots of trouble to the Sue family recently and are even creating a lot of problems at the construction site. I asked a friend to investigate for me but there were no findings, yet Harvey suddenly pretended to be kind and give us his findings. During the meeting, he said that he found out who did it and I was told to have a discussion with them tomorrow. Do you think there’s something fishy about this?" Yvonne asked, and her instinct told her that there must be a problem with the situation. Harvey was right. Her attitude was fortunate not to harm her, how could it help her.

Samuel frowned. He heard about it too and told Johann to find out more. Johann even arrested two people and tortured them for information, but to no avail. The other party obviously did a good job of keeping everything under wraps, so there was no way Harvey would know anything.

"What time will you be meeting the person tomorrow? " Samuel asked. Something was clearly fishy about it and he did not feel at ease to let Yvonne go alone.

"I don't know yet. Harvey will notify me tomorrow."

"Let me go with you and be your assistant tomorrow,"

Samuel said.

Back home, Samuel cooked dinner as usual. Although he was previously always alone in the kitchen, Yvonne recently went in more often to help out a little and perhaps try her hand at frying a dish. Yvonne's cooking usually never made it to the table though, because it was very unsightly. It was a big black mess and no one could not see what the dish was.

Back in the living room, Lydia asked Godfrey," Godfrey, haven't you noticed that our daughter has been acting a bit different recently?"

Godfrey saw that too. Yvonne never went to the kitchen before and her relationship with Samuel was like that of a stranger. However, she recently learned t o help Samuel and their topics of conversation increased significantly too.

"Maybe our daughter is slowly accepting him," Godfrey said.

That was the answer that Lydia was most reluctant to hear. He pinched Godfrey and said, "Accept, my foot! You can’t possibly allow our daughter to stay with that wimp her entire life?"

Godfrey himself was a wimp, so he was not qualified t o comment on Samuel. From Godfrey's point of view, the situation was a good thing because there would be no divorce, and the old lady would thus not be upset about it.

"Does it matter? Our daughter is finally showing her prospects now and it doesn’t matter if we raise a wimp at home," Godfrey said indifferently.

Lydia glared at Godfrey and said, "Isn’t enough that I have one useless wimp at home? Do we have to add another one? Do you know how badly my family speaks ill of me behind my back?"

Godfrey shifted in his seat awkwardly and said, "Your mother's family are all gossipy women. Just don't listen to what they say. Now that Yvonne's on the rise, are you going to force her to divorce? Do you think the old lady will let us go if she finds out about this?"

Lydia sighed. The biggest obstacle to everything was the old lady-if she did not agree, no one would dare to call the shots.

Moreover, Yvonne finally gained a position at the company. Divorce at that juncture was clearly impossible.

"One year. I'll see what he can do in one year," Lydia said.
