Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 181

This time, he didn't just whip Henry once.

The cracking sound of the whip could be heard in the study room.

Even Frederick who was guarding outside the door was frightened by the sound of it. "Is master Lancaster trying to kill the young master?"

Three years ago, Master Lancaster whipped the young master too for what Jacqueline did to him, but it was only a few whips.

This time, there were more than that.

Although Frederick didn't really count how many of them, he could tell there were more than a dozen whips.

"Henry, you still refuse to say it?" Finally, the old man was tired of the whipping. He stopped and panted heavily, looking at the man on the ground with a great deal of pain.

There was no other word than 'wretched' to describe Henry who was lying on the ground now.

His clothes were torn off due to the whipping and his entire back was covered with blood.

His body twitched because of extreme pain. His eyes were closed tightly, his entire hair was soaked wet with sweat, and his face was pale and weak, looking like a dead person.

The old man felt a pain in his heart looking at the grandson that he whipped. "Henry, are you still refusing to say it? Alright then, let me say it!”

The old man threw his whip to the floor, held onto his cane, and tremblingly sat on the chair. "I feel no qualms upon my entire life that I have not done anything bad. But I never thought that the grandson that I raised would be so disappointing. Henry, let me ask you. Deep down in your heart, do you hate me for forcing you to marry Yvonne?”

Henry did not lose consciousness. He replied weakly and hoarsely as he tried to peel one of his eyes open to look at the old man, "Ho..."

"No?” The old man sneered, "I don't think this is the case. If you don't hate me, then why didn't you live with Yvonne for the past three years of your marriage? No wonder you guys had no child over the years. Both of you were not even staying in the same room. I wouldn’t have known about this if Sue hadn’t told me about it!"

As a grandfather, the old man thought that it was better for him to not interfere with the lives of his grandson and granddaughter-in-law. Therefore, he never paid attention to them.

That was why he didn’t know that both of them had been lying to him all this time!

He had been lied to for three years! They were really

good at this!

"I’m sorry, Grandpa...” Henry knew that the old man had figured out everything between him and Yvonne. There was nothing else that he could say other than to apologize.

The old man hammered his chest heartily. "You shouldn't be apologizing to me. It's Yvonne who you should apologize to. I know that you hate me for arranging your marriage, but you can’t vent your dissatisfaction on me. That’s why you vented your dissatisfaction on her. You didn't live with her, you're really..."

Speaking of this, the old man tremblingly pointed to Henry with his other hand. "This is really disappointing. I don’t remember teaching you to vent your anger out on others. How did you learn this?

Although I forced you to marry Yvonne three years ago, I also gave you the opportunity to resist it. But you just let it slip away!"

Henry was the only grandson he had.

If the grandson was really dissatisfied with the arranged marriage, he could definitely resist it.

If he did resist it, the old man would not have forced him to get married.

The old man closed his eyes sadly when he thought of this. "Henry, you’re so good at business. Why are you messed up in terms of relationships? I wouldn’t be this angry if you left Yvonne alone just because I forced you to get married. But what I'm really angry about is why do you not have the sense of right and wrong?"
