Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 184

Yvonne retreated subconsciously. "You're awake."

Henry turned around slowly and looked at her. His voice was harsh and unpleasant. "It's you."

"Are you quite disappointed because it's me?" Yvonne lowered her eyes and sneered softly.

Henry frowned. "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing. Are you thirsty?" Yvonne asked.

Henry moved slightly. Consequently, his facial expression changed drastically. His pale face became much paler now, and his forehead was oozing with sweat, i

Seeing that, Yvonne became nervous too. She quickly pressed his shoulders. "Don't move! Your back is injured!"

Henry did not expect to see her caring for him all of a sudden. He was stunned. He then stared at her until she became quite uneasy.

"What are you looking at?" Yvonne frowned and asked.

Henry's eyes fluttered and averted his gaze. "Nothing. Can you please let go of your hands now?"

Yvonne realized now that she was still pressing his shoulders using her hands. She blushed and removed her hands. Then she turned away from him and said

gingerly, "You better not move around much.

Otherwise, you have to tend to your own wounds if your wounds are lacerated. Grandpa said that he won’t let you go to the hospital. I’ll see how you will deal with it then. Don't expect me to help you."

Hearing that, Henry did not know why, but he felt that it was quite amusing, especially when he saw how awkward she seemed. He could even imagine what kind of facial expression she had now.

Inevitably, Henry felt that his mood had become better. "Are you worried about me?"

Yvonne became anxious. Luckily, she was facing away from him, so she did not have to worry that he would see her facial expression.

"No,” she replied stubbornly.

Henry smiled faintly. "Fine, since you said so yourself.”

Yvonne pursed her lips and said nothing else.

Henry put away his smile and asked, "How long have I been home?"

"Around an hour," Yvonne replied calmly.

Henry responded and asked again, "Why did you go to the family residence all of a sudden?"

Yvonne's eyes fluttered. "Nothing much. I went and said something to Grandpa.”

"Did you tell him what happened recently?" "No, I didn't tell him any of that. Grandpa investigated i

t himself."

Henry became slightly suspicious after he heard that." Then what did you say to Grandpa?"

"It's none of your business. Rest well first. I'll go downstairs now. Later, I’ll bring some food for you." After she said that, she picked up his dirty clothes and went downstairs.

Henry looked at her as she disappeared from his sight. He then pursed his thin lips and fell into thought.

Certainly, she had hidden something from him.

Although he did not understand her well, he still knew much about her. She never took the initiative to go to the family residence before. Even if she wanted to tell the master about something, she would always choose to give him a call.

But she went to meet the master to discuss some affairs all of a sudden. It must be some kind of secret which he was unaware of.

When he thought about that, he endured the pain and got up. He then fished for the phone beside the bed and gave the master a call.

Nobody answered the phone. He did not intend to give it up, so he called the master again. But the master switched off the phone.

In that instant, Henry knew inwardly that the master purposely refused to answer his call.
