Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 173

Henry's heart ached even more at the thought of this. He couldn't bear the pain and grabbed onto his shirt tightly, beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He looked extremely pale at the time.

He held onto the villa’s walls as he entered. Sue, who harbored resentment towards Henry, immediately became worried as she saw him and asked, "Are you alright, sir?"

Sue hurriedly helped him onto the sofa and poured a glass of water for him.

Henry pushed away the glass of water and asked with a pale face, "Sue, why am I in so much pain?"

“Where are you in pain, sir?" asked Sue, even more nervous now.

Henry pointed at his chest, "Here!"

"Here?" replied Sue in awe, "How could you feel pain here?"

"That's what I want to know as well. I was in so much pain all of a sudden,” said Henry in a croaked voice as he raised an arm to cover his eye.

Sue asked in a worried voice, "Should I call Dr. Summers, sir?" "No need." Henry rejected it with his other hand.

Sue was still worried. “But your chest is in pain sir."

"I'm only in pain when I think about Yvonne," said Henry in a low tone.

Sue was stunned. "Madam? What's it got to do with her?"

Henry put down the arm that was covering his eyes, his gaze fixed at the kettle on the table. "It's got nothing to do with her, but my chest was in pain all of a sudden after what you said to me just now."

Sue was shocked upon hearing this. "You mean you only started to feel the pain after what I said?"

Henry nodded.

Suddenly, Sue started to laugh, "Sir, do you feel sorry for madam?”

"I feel sorry for her?" asked Henry as he looked at Sue.

Sue nodded. "A person only feels sorry for another when they truly care for them. Now that you feel pain a t the mention of madam, that would mean you truly regret how you have been treating madam for the past three years and feel sorry for her."

"Is that it?" asked the startled Henry.

It was true that Henry realized he was wrong to have treated Yvonne so coldly, but that couldn't have meant that he cared for her.

"Yes sir. If you didn't care for madam, you wouldn't have realized your mistake at all and you wouldn't

have felt any pain. Sir, have you fallen for madam?"

Sue was testing Henry to see how he felt.

Henry's pupils dilated. "Me, falling for Yvonne?"

Another person was now saying that he had fallen for Yvonne.

First was Shane, followed by Jacqueline, then

Dominic Conrad, now even Sue said that he had fallen for Yvonne.

Could it be true?

"I'm not too sure myself, hence why I'm asking you again sir. Now that you've seen madam in this state, d o you feel pain for her?" asked Sue with a serious face.

Henry's lips twitched, "I'm not sure."

"Sigh, how could you not know if you have feelings for madam? How could you be so..." Sue sighed as she shook her head, speechless.

Henry saw the frustrated Sue and helplessly kept his head low. "I only know I don't want to divorce."

If it were three years ago, he would have agreed to the divorce in a heartbeat and set her free.

But now things had changed.

Especially when Yvonne first mentioned the divorce, Henry had instinctively rejected her without thinking. In his heart, the thought had never entertained him once.

"But madam has already set her mind to do it, so what will you do now sir?" asked Sue nervously as she held her hands together.
