Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 298

Yvonne shook her head. "My injury feels rather painful. I think I'm going to head upstairs and rest, let’s stop talking about this topic now."

She pointed at her ribs.

Sue understood that she had better stop asking any more questions and agreed with Yvonne. "Alright, you head back to your room and rest then. I'll call you up when the food's ready."

“Alright." Yvonne nodded and got up from the sofa and slowly walked upstairs.

Back in her room, Yvonne took out her cell phone and called the old man instead of resting as she said she would.

The old man was surprised and shocked as he picked up Yvonne’s phone call. "Yvonne? What's with the sudden phone call?"

"I need to ask you something, Grandpa. Do you know about my abduction a few days ago?" asked Yvonne in a serious tone.

The old man was shocked. "What? You've been abducted? Who did it?"

Yvonne bit her lip.

She had guessed that Henry did not tell the old man about what happened and she was right.

She already suspected Henry when he did not answer when she asked if there was any news about that masked old man.

Now that she had asked the old man, her suspicions were proven to be true.

"I'm not sure who did it. That man only said that he was an enemy of the Lancasters," replied Yvonne.

The old man's voice deepened. "Enemy of the Lancasters... Yvonne, tell me everything that happened to you. I want to know what's going on!"

"Alright," replied Yvonne and she explained everything that happened in detail.

The old man was furious when he finished hearing everything. "How dare Henry not tell me that such a serious incident has occurred. Wait till I get to talk to him."

"Grandpa, you mustn't blame it on Henry. He might have his own concerns," said Yvonne to help Henry when she saw the old man was beginning to be furious at Henry.

The old man murmured coldly, "Concerns? What concerns could he have? It's obvious that he doesn’t want to tell me."

Yvonne fell silent.

To be honest, she could not understand Henry's actions as well. He clearly said that he would talk to the old man about it when he went to the family

residence previously. What made him change his mind?

"Alright Yvonne, I understand what has happened now. Thank you for telling me the truth. I'll make sure that Frederick will send you some vitamins to help with your recovery. In the meantime, you should leave everything to me."

The old man hung up so quickly that Yvonne couldn't even stop him.

She put down her phone and mumbled, "I haven't even asked Grandpa about the masked old man yet."

However, she decided not to ponder about it since she knew that the old man would be looking for Henry now. Henry would be asking her about it eventually as well.

She decided to wait till Henry got back before asking him the question.

She had to wait until night time.

When Henry returned home, his face was dark and discontented.

He walked towards Yvonne who was watching the television and put down his briefcase before coldly asking her, "Why did you tell Grandpa about it?”

Yvonne muted the television. "Was I not allowed to?”

"Grandpa isn't well at the moment. You telling him would only agitate him.” Henry’s lips pursed into a straight line.

Yvonne was startled. "So you did not ask Grandpa about that masked old man when you were at the family residence?"

Henry pressed on his glabella as he sat down. "I did go to the family residence, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell Grandpa about it when I saw him coughing so badly."

"I see." Yvonne was slightly depressed about this revelation. "I didn't know, I was worried about you and hoped that you would be able to find the Lancaster's enemy as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary danger. That's why I... I'm sorry..." 1

She stood up and apologized to Henry with a bow.
