Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 265

Sue flailed excitedly. "I’m talking about Dominic Conrad, of course! He... He..."

"What happened to him? Hurry up and spill it." Yvonne wasn't sure if she should cry or laugh at her.

Sue took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down first before saying it all in one breath, "He’s in jail!"

"What?!" Yvonne sat up abruptly from the bed, wide awake now despite feeling a little groggy earlier. Her mind was filled with only the words Sue had told her." Did you say that he's in jail?"

Sue nodded repeatedly. "Yes, he was arrested early this morning and the results came out that morning itself. Now everyone in the city knows about it. It’s even on the news."

"How can it be so fast?" Yvonne was speechless. "Isn't there some kind of process to follow?"

"Of course,” Sue chuckled mischievously. "But since sir intervened, the process doesn't really matter anymore. In any case, he would still need to go to jail after the process is complete. So it was better to save the trouble and just directly put him in prison."

"You're right about that." Yvonne strongly agreed with her opinion and even wept tears of joy at the news.

As Sue said, going straight to jail was the most suitable consequence for people like Dominic Conrad.

Besides, going through the process required a certain amount of time before he would be tried in the court. What if something unforeseen happened during this period of time?

Although the Conrads weren't as influential as the Lancasters, their influence was still quite decent. There was a possibility that Dominic might be able to find someone who could get him out of this sticky situation. Hence, it was better to send him straight to jail in order to prevent such possibilities from happening. At least Henry had finally done something right for once.

The thought of this caused Yvonne’s body to tremble slightly with excitement. "Sue, where’s Henry?”

Sue looked at the time before replying, "Sir should still be at the police station right now."

"I see." Yvonne nodded in understanding.

"Madam, now that sir has made sure that justice is served for you, maybe it's time you forgive him?" Sue suddenly probed.

The smile on Yvonne’s face slowly faded at the question, but she remained silent.

Sue sighed after seeing her response. "I guess I was rushing into things. Madam, please don't mind me." "Don’t worry about it. Pass me my phone, Sue. I'd like t o check the news." Yvonne stretched her hand out.

Sue fetched Yvonne’s phone from the bedside table, then handed it over to her.

Yvonne took her phone, then pulled up a news website. She didn't even really need to search for anything. Dominic Conrad’s imprisonment was already high up there on the homepage.

She instantly tapped on it and started reading through the article with her full attention.

The content pretty much matched what Sue told her. Dominic was arrested in the morning and sentenced t o five years in prison for kidnapping a wealthy lady by noon.

The sentence was quite serious for a well-known businessman like Dominic Conrad. When the background of the chairman of a listed company was tainted by a criminal record, their consumer base would be affected.

After all, consumers were the most sensible and realistic group of people. Dominic’s imprisonment would make them question the credibility or even boycott the products from the Conrad Group. Over time, the market value of the Conrad Group would definitely plunge and this might even lead to bankruptcy.

Therefore, Yvonne was quite satisfied with this outcome. Her only dissatisfaction was the fact that Jacqueline didn't have to face any consequences.

She was the real murderer, yet she was allowed to escape from her crimes just because of her health issues and concerns that she would commit suicide. All of this just left a bad taste in Yvonne’s mouth!

"Madam, what's on your mind?" Sue couldn't help but ask in concern when she noticed the unsatisfied expression on her face.

Yvonne shook her head. "Nothing much, I was just thinking about Jacqueline."

"Why are you thinking about her?" Sue curled her lip i n disgust.

Yvonne smiled and continued reading the rest of the news without saying anything else.

After reading the entire article, she pressed her phone tightly against her chest. Tears welled up in her eyes a s she whispered almost inaudibly, "My baby, your mom has finally gotten some revenge for you..."

As for the rest, she definitely wouldn’t miss out on any opportunity that was presented to her!

Sue was standing by the bed, so naturally she heard Yvonne's mumbles. She couldn’t help stop the tears from welling up in her eyes and also felt sad for her." Madam..."
