Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 212

Under these circumstances, Henry only had one obvious answer.

His eyes flickered past her as he turned to return home.

Yvonne pouted her lips and headed for the ladies' room as well.

As soon as she entered the ladies' room, she couldn't contain herself and started to laugh.

She never thought that Henry would be so childish to a point where he would follow her around, afraid that she would run off.

He did not seem to be that kind of person in the past, but now he seemed to be showing his true colors.

Could a person change so much within just a month?

In the past, his attitude and treatment towards her could only be described in one word: cold. Now, he was the complete opposite. Could it be because he loved her?

No, that's impossible!

Yvonne was still denying the possibility that Henry truly loved her.

She still found it hard to believe that he would love her. When he came back to her after abandoning her for three years, she thought that he had finally

accepted her as his wife.

But in the end, he had only done so to obtain her bone marrow. Although she believed him when he said he wouldn’t meet Jacqueline, he continued to do so behind her back. The worst part was when he sacrificed their child for the sake of the Conrads. 1

That's why this time, she could not bring herself to believe him. She was not going to go soft on him.

What if he had another motive when he said he loved her?

She took a deep breath, calmed herself and recollected her senses as she thought it through. She must not have any hopes towards Henry anymore!

When she was done and left the ladies’ room, there was a lot of chatter coming from her house.

She curiously walked to her house.

"What are you..." Yvonne was shocked to find a whole group of people standing outside her house, clueless about the occasion that was happening at her house.

"Yvonne, you're back." A lady saw her approaching and her eyes narrowed as she smiled.

Yvonne shuddered and broke into cold sweat. "What are you doing here madam?”

"We're here to meet Henry. We've heard about the news from the chief. Henry's going to invest in our village and help us gather some income," said the lady excitedly. 1

Yvonne now understood that the villagers were here t o thank Henry.

"I see. Come in then, he's inside." Yvonne opened the door to let them in.

The villagers rushed into her house like a swarm of bees to look for Henry.

After they all entered, Yvonne sighed and closed the door. She then snickered when she saw everyone in the living room and walked to the kitchen.

She knew that Henry was not adept at handling large crowds, especially those who came from a different background.

She could not wait to see how he would react when he had to face so many villagers!

Just thinking of it made her so excited, she hastily ran into the kitchen. "Sue."

“Madam, I was just about to look for you." Sue looked a t her, and her face was filled with excitement.

Yvonne blinked and said, "What happened?"

"So many guests suddenly showed up in the house. I'm just about to prepare some tea for them. I can’t seem to find the tea leaves, and that's why I was looking for you," replied Sue as she waved her hand.

Yvonne smiled and said, "I see, the tea leaves are in the cupboard."

As she spoke, she took out the tea leaves and passed

them to Sue.

Sue took them from her and went off to prepare drinks for the guests. 1

Yvonne stood there, waiting for her to be done and was going to help her carry the tray of tea to the living room.

Sue couldn’t stop her from helping, so she let her be.

"Be careful madam, the tea's very hot." Sue saw that she had some difficulty carrying the tray while warning her out of concern.

Yvonne insisted that she was alright and said, "Relax Sue, I know what I'm doing."

"I hope so." Sue was laughing so hard she started to wheeze.
