Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 241

"Uh..." Yvonne froze and quickly looked for an excuse. " I heard it."

"Right, your husband's friends with Mr. Lancaster. It's normal that you heard about it." Lynette nodded, not doubting Yvonne.

With a light exhale of air, Yvonne chuckled dryly and said nothing.

Lynette was suddenly excited. "Right, Yvonne, let me tell you a secret about Mr. Lancaster. Have you heard about it yet? Our company was heated in discussion today. Mr. Lancaster actually wore a ring - a ring!"

"A ring, so?" Yvonne was confused. It was normal to wear a ring.

Lynette rolled her eyes. "Don’t you get what I mean? I'm saying he wears a ring on his left ring finger, a wedding ring! What does this mean? It means that Mr. Lancaster is actually married!”

Yvonne jolted when she heard it, thoroughly frozen.

Henry wore his wedding ring? Since when?

"Lyn." Yvonne gripped her phone tightly, her question came out urgent. "Are you sure you saw that it was a wedding ring clearly? Not any other ring?"

Lyn was a little vexed. "Yvonne, are you doubting my eyesight? I'm plenty sure that it’s a wedding ring."

"It’s actually true..." Yvonne muttered in a whisper.

They had gotten married for three years and she had always been the only one wearing the wedding ring. Henry had never worn it but he was wearing it now.

She had not seen anything on his finger yesterday, so he had only worn it this morning. Why was he doing that? Was he trying to tell everyone that he was married?

While Yvonne's thoughts ran amok in her head with wild guesses about the reasons Henry was wearing his ring, Lynette spoke again, "Of course it's true.

Could it be fake news? It's just so shocking that Mr. Lancaster's actually married. When though? There wasn't any news about it previously."

Yvonne hung her head, quietly replying in her mind,' Three years ago, of course.'

"Right, Yvonne, your husband's good friends with Mr. Lancaster. He should know about it. Can you ask him i f Mr. Lancaster's really married or if he's wearing the wedding ring because he has a fiancee?" Lynette suddenly suggested.

Yvonne grimaced. "Forget it, Lyn. It's his privacy. How could I ask my husband about it? Besides, whether Mr. Lancaster's actually married or not, it's got nothing to do with us. It’s fine to gossip about it, but there's no need to inquire deeper."

"You're right.” Lynette thought about it and nodded in agreement before she got mysterious again. "One more thing, Yvonne. I discovered that Mr. Lancaster's wedding ring looked familiar - it's like I’ve seen the matching half somewhere before."

Yvonne felt her heart drop at that, and her reply came out in a stutter. "Fa - familiar?"

"Mm. When he came to talk to the planning department this morning, I took more than a double take at his ring because I was so shocked about it. My instinct was that it looked familiar, like I'd seen it before, but I can't recall," Lynette said and knocked her head.

Yvonne chuckled anxiously. "Maybe it's the same ring or something and you’ve seen by chance."

"That's impossible!" Lynette rejected her hypothesis immediately. "Someone with the status of Mr.

Lancaster will never get something the same like others. He’d look for a designer to craft it personally, s o the ring on him should be a unique design in this world. Yet it's this one and only ring that I feel familiar with, I suspect that..."

"What?" Yvonne got nervous.

Lynette stroked her chin and spoke with confidence," I suspect that I've seen Mr. Lancaster's wife or fiancee before but where... I'm not sure. Like you said, maybe I’ve come across her by chance."

Yvonne breathed unnoticeably in relief at that. Thankfully her friend did not suspect her.

Relaxing completely, Yvonne patted her chest lightly."
