Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 204

"This used to be my grandparents' room," answered Yvonne honestly.

Henry pursed his lips. "Where is your room then?"

"You intend to stay in my room?" Yvonne looked at him with a surprised expression.

Henry raised his chin, his intentions clear.

"No!" Yvonne rejected him upright.

Henry slightly raised his eyebrow. "Why not? You're m y wife, it's completely normal for us to live together in the same room."

Yvonne glared at him and said, "No means no."

"Are you sure?" said Henry as he nudged Yvonne with his arms folded.

Yvonne nodded. "I’m very sure!"

Henry sighed as he picked up his luggage and walked t o the room next door.

There were only two rooms in the whole house - the previous room was her grandparents' room, so obviously the room next door was Yvonne's room.

Yvonne was startled when she saw Henry moving towards her room. She grabbed his arm and said," Wait, what are you doing?”

"What else can I do? I'm going to drop my things in the room of course.” Henry glanced at Yvonne's arm and was slightly elated.

If she touched him like that in the past, he would've found it annoying.

But now that he realized his feelings for her, he found that her actions felt rather enjoyable.

"That's not your room. Your room is by the back," said Yvonne as she pointed to the room behind her.

Henry replied with a straight face, "I don’t like that room, so I won't be staying there. What's more, if I stay there, where would Sue sleep?”

Henry cheekily posed the question at her.

Yvonne was speechless and didn’t know how to answer.

Seeing that Yvonne was dumbfounded at his ploy, Henry slyly chuckled and said, "Have you come to your senses? Do you still want to live in a separate room from me?"

Yvonne twitched her lips but continued to stay silent.

Henry felt satisfied with himself and strode into her room under her watchful eye.

By the time she could react to what had just happened and tried to enter her room, she was greeted with a closed door.

Yvonne stood in front of her room and was dumbstruck at the tightly shut door. Suddenly she felt furious at what had just happened.

The man had not only invaded her privacy by entering her room, but he had even closed the door to keep her out.

How outrageous!

"Madam." Yvonne heard Sue shouting from outside.

Yvonne gathered her thoughts and set aside her dissatisfaction for Henry. She then turned to the living room. "What is it Sue?"

"Where do you keep your rice? I've been looking for it everywhere," asked Sue.

Yvonne smacked her forehead and said, "It's in the cupboard. Sorry, I forgot to tell you."

As she said this, she opened up the cupboard and grabbed the rice.

Sue laughed and said, "So that’s where it was hiding."

"Are you able to work in this kitchen, Sue?" asked Yvonne as she looked around her kitchen, slightly worried.

Sue may be the Lancasters' maid, but she was still a city woman.

She might not be able to work her way around a wooden stove which was common in the countryside.
