The thing she wanted to buy was Henry's birthday gift.
His birthday was next month. So it would be nice if she prepared his birthday gift now.
"Do you promise to come?" Lynette asked her.
Yvonne nodded. "I promise to go with you. Where are you now? I'll be right there."
She got up and walked toward the bedroom.
"I'm at the South Granville Shopping District," said Lynette immediately, telling Yvonne her location.
"Fine. I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Yvonne did not put away her phone immediately. She looked up her contact list and found the driver’s contact number which she saved the day before.
This was the first time she had her own driver. For a moment, she became quite nervous on the phone.
However, that driver sounded rather old. He sounded like he was almost the same age as Sue. The way he talked was rather gentle too, so it soothed her anxiety.
After the call, the driver was soon on his way to the apartment. Without wasting any time, she soon went t o change her clothes and put on her makeup.
When she was done, the driver reached the apartment.
Yvonne opened the door and got into the car. She then told the driver where she was heading.
The driver nodded and started the car.
An hour later, she reached the South Granville Shopping District.
As soon as she got out of the car, Lynette came out of nowhere and patted her shoulder. "Yvonne, here you are finally."
Yvonne was frightened. She patted her chest in annoyance. "Where the hell did you come from?"
"I've been waiting for you there." Lynette pointed to a coffee shop beside them.
Yvonne understood it now. "No wonder you saw me the minute I got out of the car."
"Exactly." Lynette lifted her chin smugly. She then looked at the driver beside them curiously. "Yvonne, this is..."
"He's Luke." Yvonne introduced him.
Luke smiled politely at Lynette. "Miss, nice to meet you. I'm madam's driver."
"Driver?" Lynette screamed in shock. "Yvonne, you’ve improved. Now you even have a driver. Previously, you even needed to hail for a taxi whenever you went out."
"Things have changed." Yvonne smiled casually and said to Luke, "Luke, you may leave now, and you don't
have to wait for me here."
"Alright." Luke nodded. He then got into the car and left.
Seeing the car disappear before her, Lynette still had not come back to her senses. "Yvonne, I'm now very curious as to what your husband's job is.”
"He's just doing ordinary business." Yvonne's eyes fluttered as she said so.
Henry was indeed a businessman. Certainly, he did nothing but business.
"Don't try to fool me." Lynette rolled her eyes. "Just ordinary business. How could he befriend Mr.
Lancaster if he's only a regular businessman? How could he easily contact a doctor as famous as that?"
Yvonne scratched her head and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
Lynette smiled slyly. "I just want to ask whether your husband's family is much wealthier than the
Lancasters or the other way around."
Yvonne's lips twitched slightly. "I think it’s almost the same."
