Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 106

Yvonne got up and carried her bag. She then followed Henry.

She knew that she was going to meet Elliot with him.

She was reluctant, but he did not allow her any chance to reject him.

When they entered the elevator, Yvonne could not help but ask, "Where are we supposed to meet Mr. Taylor?"

"Grand Earl Hotel," Henry replied calmly.

Yvonne responded softly and spoke no more. The atmosphere soon became tense and stressful.

That kind of stress sustained itself all the way to the hotel. It dissipated slowly when they met Elliot.

"Mr. Lancaster, it's nice to meet you." Elliot smiled and stretched his hand out toward Henry. However, he

was peeking at Yvonne from the corner of his eyes.

Henry noticed that small action. A deep wrath soon engulfed him, and he was soon filled with an immense coldness.

"Mr. Taylor, nice to meet you too." Henry shook his hand.

When Henry grabbed Elliot's hand, he tightened his grasp gradually.

Elliot could feel Henry's strong force. He frowned slightly and smiled faintly at Henry. "Mr. Lancaster, you're indeed quite a warm man."

Elliot tightened his grasp on Henry's hand too.

Yvonne did not notice the secret fight between the two men. She just felt that they seemed rather strange.

But she could not tell what was wrong. She could only stand at the side and remain quiet.

After all, she was inferior to the two of them. She decided it was best for her to appear invisible and insignificant to them.

As she was having such thoughts, she lowered her head and stared at her shoes in a daze.

After a short while, she heard somebody addressing her.

She looked up and looked at Elliot. "Are you talking to me, Mr. Taylor?"

"Yes." Elliot used his handkerchief to wipe his hand as he smiled and said, "It’s been a while since I last met you, Miss Frey. You're much prettier than before."

Yvonne blushed deeply after being praised by Elliot all of a sudden. She was slightly embarrassed. "No, it’s not. You're exaggerating the facts."

"I didn't. It's true." Elliot winked his left eye at her.

Henry stepped forward and stood before Yvonne, blocking her from Elliot’s view. "Mr. Taylor, speaking like that to my wife in front of me is disrespectful." "Mr. Lancaster, what are you talking about now? When did I disrespect you? I was just praising Miss Frey. You should be proud of her." Elliot pretended not to agree with Henry. At the same time, he finished wiping his hand and folded the handkerchief nicely. Then, he put it back into his front pocket.

Elliot's action infuriated Henry. Henry too took out his handkerchief and wiped his hand clean gradually.

He did it in a much more detailed manner than Elliot. He wiped each and every finger carefully.

After that, he did not put away the handkerchief nicely in his pocket like Elliot. On the other hand, he rolled the handkerchief into a ball and threw it away directly. It appeared like the handkerchief was too dirty to be used anymore.

Elliot narrowed his eyes slightly. "What do you mean b y that, Mr. Lancaster?"

"Don’t you know it well, Mr. Taylor?" Henry looked up coldly. "You think that my hand is dirty, but I'm actually disgusted by your hand even more!"

Elliot's lips twitched slightly. Suddenly, he was tongue -tied.

At last, Yvonne realized that they were confronting each other. Although she knew not why they acted as such, she was afraid that they might get into a fight with each other. So she quickly spoke up, "Mr.

Lancaster, Mr. Taylor, aren’t you here to discuss the cooperation?" "Yes. I almost forgot about the business." Elliot smiled again. "Mr. Lancaster, why don’t we discuss it first?"

Henry made no response. He took a seat directly.

Elliot was not annoyed by Henry's behavior. He shrugged, pulled the seat across from Henry, and sat down.

Yvonne looked at Henry, then she turned to look at Elliot. At last, she sat beside Henry.

"Although we signed the contract the last time we met, we still have yet to discuss the details regarding our cooperation. I've sorted some of them out. Mr.

Lancaster, you can read through them first to see if you have any other suggestions to raise." Elliot put the document which he brought along on the table. Then, he pushed the document toward him.

Henry glanced at him coldly. Then, he took up the document and read through them.

When he was done reading, he pursed his thin lips slightly.
