Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 302

Yvonne hadn't expected him to make such a shameless request and was very angry. Her little face puffed up. "I don't think much about it. Mr. Taylor, don't you think you're out of line?"

"Is it too much to fight for what you want?" Elliot snorted unconcernedly.

Yvonne squeezed her palms. "I'm sorry Mr. Taylor, but your offer is off the table."

"So, you don't want to know who Jacqueline's sister really is?" Elliot narrowed his eyes.

Yvonne laughed in exasperation. "If I have to sell myself out just to get that information. No way. I will b e disgusted with myself. Since you won't tell me, I'll take my leave, Mr. Taylor. I'm sure I can find that information without you. After all, there's no shortage of detective agencies anywhere."

After she said that, she turned to leave.

Elliot, however, suddenly held her hand,. "Wait a minute."

Yvonne frowned, "Mr. Taylor, what else do you need?"

"You're pretty stubborn." Elliot let go of her hand and suddenly laughed bitterly.

Yvonne wondered what he was up to and got a little impatient. "Mr. Taylor..."

"Alright, fine." Elliot lifted his hands and quickly interrupted her. "Fine, I'll tell you the truth. I have my own reasons so I can't tell you the identity of Jacqueline's sister directly. However, I can give you a direction to work on. Shane Summers."

"Shane?" Yvonne cocked her head to a side confoundedly. "What has this got to do with him?"

"This definitely involves him because he's the first one among us to find out that Jacqueline has a sister. However, I doubt he'll tell you anything since she isn't any average person." As Elliot spoke, he fixed his eyes on Yvonne's face thoughtfully.

Yvonne felt slightly creeped out by the way Elliot looked at her. It made her uncomfortable but she also had a strange feeling.

"So what if she isn't the average person? Why are you looking at me?" Yvonne touched her face, finding Elliot's behavior very baffling.

Something flashed in Elliot's eyes. He laughed," Nothing. Do you remember what I said just now?"

Yvonne nodded.

"Since you've already taken note of that, it's up to you whether you want to investigate it yourself or ask Shane Summers. It's up to you. But I'll recommend you to investigate that lead yourself because the outcome might shock you more if you hear it from another person. There's one more thing." Elliot looked at the watch on his wrist.

"What is it?" Yvonne waited for him to answer.

Elliot shook his index finger, tellingly, "Next time, if you want my hair, you can just tell me. Considering how I feel about you, why would I refuse?"

"You..." Yvonne stared at him wide-eyed. "You found out?"

"This is my territory. Do you think you can hide anything from me here?" Elliot smiled.

Yvonne lowered her head awkwardly. "I'm sorry, I..."

"Alright, if there isn't anything else, you should leave since I'm going out now. Of course, if you hate to part with me here, you can come along. Why don't I take you on a ride?” Elliot winked at her.

Yvonne's face turned black. "That’s unnecessary. I'm sorry to take so much of your time, Mr. Taylor. I'll leave now.”

Yvonne gave Elliot a slight bow and left.

Click. The door to his villa closed once more. His jocular expression on his face gradually faded-it was replaced with a frigid coldness.

Holding back her fear toward him, his helper walked t o his side. “Sir, that time regarding your hair..."

"Don't let it happen again!" Elliot spat icily.

The woman shuddered and quickly agreed. "Yes. I know I was wrong. It won't happen again.”

"Fortunately, I came back early that day. Otherwise, you would've ruined my plans.” Elliot glared at her. 1

The middle-aged woman shrunk backward, afraid to say another word.

Elliot shifted his gaze away, "Spread the word about Yvonne personally coming to my villa to look for me. I want Henry to know."

"Yes." The helper quickly did as she was told.

After half an hour, Joe was already telling Henry about Yvonne’s visit to Elliot's villa.

When Henry heard this, he tapped the cold surface of his work desk a few times. "Why is she looking for Elliot?"

"I don’t know. I saw someone in the villa group chat mentioning it, so I came to report this to you." Joe waved his mobile phone.
