Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 103

Yvonne was slightly puzzled.

Henry laughed softly. "I don't have any intention to do that with you. I'm exhausted!"

Yvonne’s blush deepened. She realized that she had misunderstood him. She wanted so badly to hide from him given the deep embarrassment.

"That's... not what I meant!” she stammered and tried t o defend herself.

Henry raised his eyebrow slightly. "Then what did you mean by that?"

"Nothing. I'm sleepy now." She closed her eyes immediately.

Henry did not pester her about it anymore. "Fine.”

He then closed his eyes again.

Yvonne hesitated for a short while. "Henry..."

"Yes?" Henry opened his thin lips slightly.

"Goodnight."

Henry’s eyelids fluttered slightly. He seemed to want t o open his eyes, but he decided against it at last." Goodnight..."

He responded to her.

It had been more than ten years now. Nobody ever

wished him a good night since his parents were involved in an accident, not even Grandpa or Jackie.

Now, he heard it again. It was even from a woman whom he never thought was attractive.

At that moment, Henry was filled with a deep gentleness. He pulled Yvonne deeply into his embrace. Although he used a strong force, he did not hurt her. "Go to sleep."

Yvonne noticed the gentleness and care in that hug. She seemed overwhelmed by an unexpected joy.

She was unaware of the reason why he became so gentle toward her all of a sudden. She did not even know what his current thoughts were.

But she did not inquire about it for fear that he might stop being gentle toward her after she did so. Then, it would be a waste.

When she thought about that, she snuggled up to him, found a comfortable spot in his embrace, and slept soundly. 1

They had a good night's sleep.

The next day, Yvonne found that Henry was no longer there when she woke up.

She sighed regrettably, got up, and went to the bathroom to clean herself up. Then, she went downstairs.

"Madam." Sue saw her as she went downstairs. She smiled and greeted her. "Good morning.”

"Morning, Sue.” Yvonne yawned. "Did Henry leave?" "The master left early in the morning," Sue replied. Then, she added, "He returned to the family residence."

"Is something wrong?" Yvonne asked in confusion.

Sue shook her head. "I'm not sure about that. Why don’t you ask him? He might have told you about it."

Yvonne lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly. "Sue, don’t joke with me. How would he tell me about his affairs?"

"That's not entirely true. I notice that your relationship with the master has become much closer recently."

Yvonne was shocked to hear that.

Did she have a closer relationship with Henry?

How was that possible?

"Sue, don't make fun of me." Yvonne waved her hands, completely disregarding what Sue said.

Sue laughed softly. "Madam, I'm not making fun of you here. Didn’t you notice that he’s become more patient with you? He’ll take the initiative to chat with you. He'll answer your questions if you have any queries. H e even smiles at you now. These kinds of things never happened before."

"This..." Yvonne widened her eyes.

After listening to Sue, she felt that it was indeed true.

"Madam, don't you believe me?" Sue looked at Yvonne.

Yvonne made no replies.

It was not that she was unwilling to believe it. She was not confident enough to do so.

What if she believed in what Sue said? She was afraid that their relationship would revert to its previous state even though they became much closer to each other now.

"That's fine. Since you don’t believe me, just forget about it. Madam, the breakfast is ready and you may enjoy it now." Sue changed the topic.

Yvonne nodded. "Alright."

After breakfast, she went to the office.

Lynette was waiting for Yvonne at the entrance of the office. She held Yvonne's arm in a friendly manner when she saw Yvonne. "Yvonne, finally you're here."

"What's wrong?" Yvonne took out her access card and opened the door.
