Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 137

Henry stopped walking all of a sudden. "Did you know about it?"

'Who told her that?’

"Yes, I know.” Yvonne glanced at him, and she seemed to see through him. She smiled pitifully. "Miss Conrad called and told me about it.”

"Jackie?" Henry frowned.

Yvonne nodded. "She told me that you went to stay by her side last night at the hospital. Besides, you always went to visit her at the hospital for the past two days. Henry, didn't you tell me that you won’t go meet Miss Conrad voluntarily? Did you break your promise?"

She was quite nervous when she voiced those words out.

Henry’s face became cold. "This is none of your business." 2

"I know. I just couldn’t reconcile with it." Yvonne bit her lips.

Henry narrowed his eyes. "Why is that so?"

"Of course I can't bear to see you go and meet another woman. Henry, you know about it as I've told you before. I mind her existence very much." Yvonne lowered her head and she was engulfed in deep sadness.

Henry pursed his thin lips. "You don't have to mind about her. I told you before, it’s impossible between m e and Jackie.”

"But I'm afraid." Yvonne grabbed her clothes around her chest. She choked with sobs. "Could you give me a sense of security?"

"What kind of security do you want?” Henry looked at her.

Yvonne took a deep breath. "It's easy given the kind of security I want. I just hope that you'll tell me where you're going in the future no matter where you're headed. Just don't let me worry so much about you."

She wanted more, but she did not dare to voice it out.

She was afraid that he might think that she was simply being too greedy, and he would not grant any o f her wishes.

"Alright," Henry replied calmly.

Yvonne was soon filled with a tinge of surprise. "Did you just promise me that?”

"Yes,” Henry replied. "Is there anything else?”

"Nothing more.” She waved her hand.

Henry turned around and walked toward the bathroom.

A smile slowly spread across Yvonne's face. She walked toward the closet and hung up his clothes. Then, she got into bed, preparing to turn in.

She was afraid that Henry might want to have sex with her when he finished his bath. She was also worried that she might be unable to find any valid reason to excuse herself.

However, Henry had no intention to do so. She did not know what he was busy with recently, and his cold face was filled with exhaustion.

So he got into bed and slept soundly after his bath.

Yvonne was still awake when he fell asleep.

She turned around and observed him closely. She was saddened inevitably when she saw the bags under his eyes.

Yvonne stretched her hand out from the blanket and touched Henry's face softly. She started to outline his features, using her fingers.

She never thought that she would marry such an exceptional man.

It was also the reason why she was worried all the time because he was such an outstanding man. She was worried that she might not be able to keep her marriage intact.

The worry intensified when Jacqueline appeared. She could foresee the dangers lying ahead. Even though h e told her that he would never get back together with Jacqueline, she was still worried about it. It was because they still had a long way to go, and no one could be so sure of the future.

At that moment, Yvonne was helpless and worried.

She was lethargic when she woke up the next day.

"Sue, good morning.” She yawned and went downstairs.

Sue was pouring a glass of water for Henry when she heard Yvonne’s voice. She smiled and replied," Madam, good morning."
