Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 192

Yvonne was awakened by that voice. She soon opened her eyes and put her phone before her. She became frightened and looked at that contact number which she was quite familiar with.

'Is this... Henry?

'How does he know about my new contact number?

'Is it because of Sue?’

Yvonne put her phone near her ear again with a shaky hand. "You..."

"Where are you?" Henry asked her again. His voice was deep and hoarse, and he sounded slightly exhausted too.

Yvonne swallowed slightly. She retorted, "How did you get my contact number?"

"I got it from Sue," replied Henry coldly.

It was logical for him to get suspicious about Sue given how close she was to Yvonne. Even if Sue did not have her new contact number, her friends might have it. He would certainly find it out one day.

As expected, he asked Sue about it tentatively that morning. Sue did not try to conceal the truth from him, and she soon became frank with him. So, he did not have to spend some time looking it up. However, Sue did not know where she went. Joe too did not manage to locate her whereabouts after looking for her for an entire day the day before.

He was curious as to how she left the city.

Yvonne seemed to understand it now. She raised her eyebrow. "It's Sue after all."

He did indeed become suspicious about Sue.

"Why did you leave?" Henry asked her.

Yvonne became silent.

Henry was in no rush, waiting for her reply.

Yvonne bit her lower lip. "We're about to divorce each other now. Certainly, I needed to leave.”

"Didn't I tell you that I'll not agree to the divorce?" Henry's facial expression darkened.

Yvonne held the phone tightly in her hand. "Yes, but Grandpa agreed to it this time around."

"But the person who married you is me. As long as I don't sign the divorce agreement, even Grandpa cannot meddle with it. Yvonne, do you understand that?" Henry said coldly.

Yvonne lowered her eyes. "I know. But Mr. Lancaster, isn't it meaningless, being like this?"

"What do you mean?" Henry frowned.

Yvonne leaned against the bed weakly. "I meant that it’s meaningless if we continue our marriage. Mr.

Lancaster, do you know what a true marriage entails?"

Henry moved his thin lips slightly. He was going to answer her question, but he soon found that he was unable to figure out the answer properly.

It was because he realized that he was unable to answer that question.

Yvonne waited for his reply for a short while, but she received none. Soon, she seemed to understand something. She sneered and mocked herself. "You do indeed know nothing about it.”

Henry pursed his lips. "Then how about you? What do you understand about a marriage?"

"Me?" Yvonne thought about it for a while. She seemed to be filled with a kind of longing. "In my point of view, marriage entails a condition in which a husband and a wife love each other deeply. They tolerate and respect each other. The wife will take good care of her husband, and the husband will risk everything else just to protect his wife and baby. Did you give me this kind of marriage?"

Henry was stunned. "I..."
