"Pretty much, but I'm also here to remind you about coming over for a re-examination during the weekend," Shane chuckled lightly.
Yvonne sighed softly, "Okay, I won't forget. I'll hang up now then?"
"Alright, bye!"
"Bye!"
After hanging up, Yvonne put her phone away with a smile then went to the bathroom to wash up.
By the time she had tidied herself up, food was served.
Yvonne went over and swept her eyes across the dishes on the table. And as expected, it was a sumptuous meal as all the dishes looked extremely appetizing.
She sat down and started digging into the food. Her meal tasted better than usual, probably due to the news about Dominic Conrad’s imprisonment.
Yvonne ate an extra bowl of rice, just as she mentioned earlier. The price of overeating was an uncomfortably full tummy. She slumped on her chair and could barely walk.
"Sue, please get me some digestion tablets," Yvonne smiled wryly.
The housekeeper laughed up her sleeve. "Right away.”
It didn't take her long to find the digestion tablets.
Yvonne took two of them and remained sitting as she waited for the food in her tummy to digest.
A few minutes later, she suddenly heard some movements coming from the door.
Someone was opening the door!
She turned her head to the door and quietly stared at i t.
The door opened a few seconds later. Henry came in from outside, wearing only a black shirt with a jacket neatly draped on his arm.
Yvonne went over and the man turned his head when he heard her footsteps. "You’re up."
"Well, it’s noon already so I should wake up," Yvonne reached out and took the coat from his arm.
Henry concentrated on changing his shoes. "Did you see the news?"
Yvonne was hanging up his coat. Her eyes lit up slightly when she heard him. "I did and I was overjoyed. Thank you."
"No need to thank me, I’m just keeping my promise. This is also the punishment that Dominic Conrad deserves.” Henry looked at her after changing his shoes.
The corner of Yvonne's lips twitched. "You are right, but Jacqueline didn’t receive any punishments."
Henry was slightly taken aback by her comment, then frowned. "Do you want Jacqueline to be jailed too?"
"If you want to hear the truth, then my answer is yes, I want her to be jailed." Yvonne met his eyes and nodded neutrally.
Henry pressed his thin lips together and was about to say something when Yvonne interrupted him again." But I haven’t forgotten what you said. If Jacqueline were really jailed, she might do something drastic to herself. In that case, the sacrifice of my bone marrow and my child would have been for naught. That's why I agree with you that she shouldn't be jailed too, but..."
"But what?" Henry raised an eyebrow at her.
Yvonne sighed, "But do you think this the end? Let's not talk about how I'd hate her for the rest of my life, but what if she isn't going to leave the matter at that? Now that Dominic Conrad is in jail, she'll definitely find a way to save him." 2
"I will make sure she won't have the chance to save Dominic," Henry assured her.
Yvonne sighed then shook her head, "You still don't understand what I'm trying to say. I’m saying that you were the one who sent Dominic to jail, so you're the only person who can get him out of there easily. She'll definitely come and beg you to forgive him."
It was then that Henry got what she meant. The expression on his handsome face darkened slightly at her suspicion and distrust. "So you think I won't be able to bear Jacqueline’s pleas and will help her bail Dominic out of jail?"
Yvonne didn't deny the statement and nodded." Jacqueline will definitely come and pester you."
"That's her problem then. At the end of the day, it's up t o me to decide if Dominic Conrad should be released. Don't start overthinking now, okay? Have you eaten yet?" Henry impatiently changed the subject.
Yvonne moved her lips. "I did, how about you?"
"Not yet."
