Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 183

'He's seriously injured. Will something happen to him i f we don't send him to the hospital?’

While Yvonne was having anxious thoughts, the phone in her pocket rang all of a sudden.

Yvonne suppressed her worries and glanced at Henry once. She put the blanket over him, then she took out the phone and went to the balcony.

It was a call from the master, and she did not dare to waste any more time. She put the phone near her ear immediately and answered the call. "Grandpa."

"Yvonne, is Henry home yet?" She soon heard the master's friendly voice.

Yvonne replied, "Yes, he's home. Do you want to talk to him?"

"No, it’s fine. If I'm not wrong, he's still unconscious." The master chuckled. He seemed not to care about Henry at all.

Yvonne took pity on Henry inwardly. Then she bit her lips and asked, "Grandpa, did you call me because you have something to talk to me about?"

"Yes. I want to apologize to you."

"Apologize?" Yvonne tilted her head.

The master sighed. "For my ungrateful and bad grandson's sake. I learned about everything he did, so I feel that I've wronged you, Yvonne. I didn't teach him well."

"No." Yvonne soon became teary. She suppressed her desire to burst into tears and said immediately, "It's not your fault, Grandpa. You don't have to apologize to ''

me.

"No, I still need to do that. I didn't foresee it, and I didn't do something to prevent it from happening. If I made the woman from the Conrads leave Henry earlier on, these kinds of things might've never happened." When he talked about that, he was extremely regretful.

Yvonne sobbed and sniffed her nose. "Grandpa, please don’t blame yourself for this. It's over now..."

"Yes, it’s over now, but I still can't let it go. I’m grieved when I think about my great-grandchild who died before he was even born," the master said in excruciating pain.

Yvonne touched her belly subconsciously. She was deeply grieved too.

"Yvonne, I've considered the divorce seriously." The master sounded rather serious all of a sudden when h e brought the matter up. 1

Yvonne became serious too. "Grandpa, do you approve of that?"

"Yes, I do. It's us who have wronged you. We wasted your three years of youth, and we even caused you many injuries. I'm deeply ashamed." The master covered his face with one of his hands and spoke regretfully.

Yvonne lowered her head and sobbed, but she made n o reply.

The master heard her cries, and he felt even guiltier." Yvonne, do you blame me? If I didn't pick you at first and made you marry Henry, you wouldn't have to suffer so miserably.”

"No!" Yvonne shook her head immediately. "I don’t blame you, Grandpa. This is my choice. I registered for the bride election three years ago on my own free will. Besides, you allowed me to consider it again when I got married to Henry. So this is indeed not your fault."

"Yes, it's true, but we still wronged you greatly," the master sighed.

Yvonne rubbed her teary eyes. "Grandpa, don't you blame me?"

The master raised his eyebrow. "Why do you ask so?"

"It's because I’m the one who asked for the divorce," Yvonne replied softly.

Although she knew not much about the wealthy and influential families, she was still aware of something after staying with the Lancasters for three years now. A lot of them could not accept the fact that a daughter-in-law who came from a poor family background took the initiative to ask for a divorce.

For them, it was nothing but a challenge and contempt. They thought that a woman who came from a common family should be grateful for being able to join their wealthy and influential family where one could enjoy a higher status. How could such a woman be so shameless to ask for a divorce?

So she had that kind of worry.

The master had experienced a lot in his lifetime. He certainly understood a lot of underlying meanings from what Yvonne said. He could not help but chuckle. "Yvonne, don't worry about it. Although we neither have the precedent of divorce in our family nor the daughter-in-law asking for a divorce, we're reasonable people. Furthermore, we are the ones who wronged you first."

Hearing that, Yvonne became relieved. She sighed softly. "Alright, Grandpa. Thank you for your concern over the past three years. I'm so sorry for betraying your trust, and I didn't manage to let you see your great -grandchild."

"It might be destined." The master smiled bitterly. Then he asked, "By the way, when do you plan to divorce him? If Henry refuses, just tell me. I’ll make him agree to it."
