Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 11

At the hospital’s gate...

Henry parked his car in front of the hospital entrance and checked the time. He was just in time to catch Yvonne getting discharged from the hospital.

He opened the car door to get out of the car and strode toward the hospital building.

For some reason, he kept thinking about it and couldn't be at ease unless he went to take a look.

After waiting for so long, Sue still hadn’t come downstairs. This was when he started to realize that something was wrong and went over to check up on them.

As soon as he arrived at the inpatient department, a middle-aged woman blocked his way.

Upon a closer look, the woman looked rather familiar.

"Is there anything I can help you with, madam?"

"Henry, it’s me! You've forgotten me? I'm Yvonne's mother!"

"Oh, it's you.” Henry took a few more looks at her and vaguely recalled this person.

"Mrs. Frey, are you here to pick up Yvonne?" he asked out of respect.

"Oh, yes. Haha. You can say that." Yvonne's mother was acting weird like she always did. She didn't even dare to meet Henry's gaze.

Henry frowned, unable to shake off the feeling that she was trying to hide something. 2

"Where’s Yvonne, Mrs. Frey?”

"Speaking of this, I’m so upset! Yvonne got robbed when she went to withdraw some money just now! I was so angry that I asked her to quickly run after the robber!"

"You let her chase after the robber alone?" Henry's face sunk. Given how frail Yvonne was, he wasn't even sure if she was the one chasing the robber or the robber was the one chasing her.

"I'll go check up on her!"

Ignoring Yvonne's mother who was still trying to get all chummy with him, Henry rushed into the lobby downstairs and started looking for Yvonne.

At the police station...

Yvonne followed the cop to the station and made a police statement. By the time she was done, it was already getting late and she still had to rush back to the hospital to give her mother the money. Before leaving, she thanked the man who had helped her.

"Thank you again, mister. You even took the trouble to come here with me."

"It’s alright. I can’t just stand watching and doing nothing in a situation like that." Elliot smiled and his almond-shaped eyes turned into crescent moons. "I heard you told the cops that your name is Yvonne Frey? Mine's Elliot Taylor.’’

"You’re too kind, Mr. Taylor. I should be thanking you properly, but I still have something urgent to attend to. I'll definitely find a chance and treat you to a meal next time!”

"What's so urgent that you don't even have the time for a meal?" Elliot took a step forward and blocked her way.

The expression on Yvonne's face instantly turned awkward. Her younger brother was still waiting for the money, but the man seemed sincere and just wanted to be friends with her.

In any case, he had helped her out and she didn't want to be rude either. "Mr. Taylor, we can..."

"Mister, you can tell me if you need anything."

While Yvonne was trying to explain herself, a familiar voice rang out over her head.
