Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 153

"The results don't differ much from my previous checkup." Yvonne waved the checkup report in her hand.

"Let me see." Shane held out his hand.

Yvonne promptly handed him the report.

After Shane read it, his brows knitted tightly together, "It seems that the bone marrow donation really affected your health. This child is still at high risk."

"I know, I'll just be more careful," Yvonne smiled.

Regarding this matter, Yvonne didn't actually hold that many grudges.

"Come on, let's go find Henry." Shane returned the report to her.

Yvonne agreed and followed him to the hospital wards.

When they reached Jacqueline's ward, Yvonne had already spotted Henry leaning against the door, smoking from a distance.

He seldom smoked. He would only smoke a cigarette when there was something bothering him.

Since he was smoking, was something bothering him?

"Henry," Yvonne called out to Henry, covering her nose.

Henry looked at her and saw her covering her nose. H e immediately realized what he was doing and stubbed out his cigarette.

"Is your checkup done?" he asked and ignored the fact that Shane was standing beside her.

Shane didn't care. He shrugged his shoulders and stepped aside.

"The checkup is done. Why are you standing here? Why don't you go inside to see Miss Conrad?" Yvonne asked curiously.

Henry took the report from her and looked at it." Jacqueline's not awake yet."

"I see." Yvonne nodded and stopped talking.

Shane coughed twice to make his presence known," It's just as well she's not awake, so I'll go in and take a look at her wounds."

With that, he opened the door to Jacqueline's room and went straight in.

Henry pursed his lips and followed suit.

When Yvonne saw that they all went in, it was awkward for her to stay outside so she followed them and entered the ward too.

She was also a little curious about Jacqueline's current situation.

"Mr. Lancaster, Dr. Summers." The nurse inside saw the three of them come in and greeted them.

Henry waved his hand, "Please go out first." "Okay." The nurse complied and left the room quietly.

Shane pulled out a pair of medical gloves from his coat pocket and put them on. Then, he walked over to Jacqueline and suddenly held her left wrist to scrutinize her wound.

Yvonne took the opportunity and peeked out from behind Henry as she wanted to see the condition of Jacqueline's wound.

It was only a glance, but Henry noticed it.

He narrowed his eyes and pressed her head back behind his back, forbidding her from looking.

Yvonne didn't know what to do. She was too afraid to resist him, so she just pursed her lips and fought off her curiosity.

"How's Jacqueline's wound?" Henry saw Shane put Jacqueline's hand under the blanket and asked him that question.

Shane took off his gloves. He took out his medical record book and a pen from the other pocket of his doctor's coat and answered him without looking up as he wrote on it, "Her wound is fine, it wasn't very deep i n the first place. It'll just take some time to recover."

"Hmm." Henry nodded his head slightly.

Yvonne blinked, a little confused as to what he meant by his 'hmm.'

Was he reassured or was he still worried? 1

Either way, it wasn't what she cared about the most. What concerned her the most was Shane's comment that Jacqueline's wound wasn't too deep.

If a person had a real intent to commit suicide, would his or her wound be shallow? If her wound wasn't deep, it was clear that Jacqueline didn't really want to commit suicide but was just acting to get sympathy.

When Yvonne realized this, she couldn't help marveling at Jacqueline's guile.

Even though she was acting to gain sympathy, she could be lauded for the fact that she was even willing t o harm herself to do that.

Facing someone so cruel to even herself, Yvonne recognized that it was no wonder she couldn't win against that woman.
