Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 133

"I know, but then Henry will hate me for it," Yvonne answered with a vacant stare.

Sue wanted to refute, but considering Henry's character, she was unable to go through with her words.

"Oh, madam, what should we do?" Sue asked with a sigh.

Taking a deep breath, Yvonne tried to cheer herself u p. "I don't know either. Let nature take its course. We'll act accordingly."

"We can only do that. But madam, you have to be careful. That Conrad woman isn't an easy target. That woman is vicious,” Sue warned.

Yvonne nodded. "I will."

She let go of Sue and left her embrace.

"Let's go, madam. Let's go down for lunch, don't think too much about it." Sue tugged some loose strands of hair behind Yvonne's ear.

Yvonne smiled and followed her down.

After the meal, she watched some television on the couch while digesting the lunch when the sound of the car engine sounded from outside of the villa.

Yvonne lowered the television's volume and listened carefully to recognize that it was the sound of the car that Henry usually drove. With a flash of surprise, she quickly put down the remote and went to welcome him at the door.

"Henry, you're back," Yvonne greeted the man who was coming down from the car with a smile.

The man did not look happy. "I heard Joe say that you aren’t feeling well today?"

Yvonne’s gaze was evasive. "Yeah."

"Get in." Henry opened the car door.

"Where to?" Yvonne was alarmed.

"The hospital," Henry uttered, "Aren't you feeling unwell? I'll take you to the hospital for a check."

"I don't want to!" Yvonne blurted without hesitation.

Her reaction spurred Henry's suspicion as he squinted his eyes, "Don't want to?"

"Um... It's just a minor issue. No need to get it checked at the hospital," Yvonne said weakly.

If they went to the hospital, her pregnancy would be exposed. How could she give him the surprise then? Therefore, she could never go to the hospital!

"Yvonne Frey!" Henry let go of the door and stared at her icily. "Are you sure you don't want to go?"

"Yes." Yvonne nodded. She was one hundred percent certain.

There was suddenly a scoff from Henry. "Yvonne Frey, you’re lying, aren't you?"

"What?" Yvonne froze.

Crossing his arms, Henry said, "You took a leave two days ago with the same excuse that you didn't feel well but you went out with your friend. You took a leave again today with the same excuse and I came out specifically to take you to the hospital but you refuse to go. What else is it if you aren't lying?"

"I..." Yvonne’s mouth hung loose but she had no comeback. He was right, she lied. She did not feel unwell today - she just slept in. She dared not speak the truth, however, knowing that the man would be more furious if she did.

Henry was more riled when he saw Yvonne keeping quiet with her head lowered. "I'm right, am I not? Yvonne Frey, you can tell me if you don't want to work. No need to play tricks!"

"No, Henry. I want to work. It's because..."

"Because of what?" Henry stared straight at her.

She bit her lips, stopping herself a few times from speaking, and was still unable to answer him.

When she was panicking over what to do and was hesitant about telling the truth, Sue came out from the villa. "Sir, don’t you blame madam. It's not her fault today. I called Joe and I told Joe that she didn't feel well."

"Sue..." Yvonne looked at her in grievance.

Sue smiled. "It’s fine, madam."
