Yvonne nodded subconsciously. "I was about to look for you."
"Are you sure you're looking for me and not to check if I was making a scene with Sam?" Henry looked down at her.
Yvonne touched the tip of her nose. "That... both of them."
"Ha." Henry walked past her to the sofa. "I'm not going to stir up trouble with anyone at such a venue."
Yvonne's eyes brightened when she heard that. "So, you guys didn't..."
"Why didn't you tell me that you met someone from the Smith family in the first place?" Henry cut her off.
Yvonne scratched her hair. "It’s not that I didn't want t o tell you, but I forgot. Besides, with what happened to the Lancaster Group in the past two days, I didn't want to bother you with these since you were busy."
"This is not a disturbance." Henry sat down. "The Smith family came over to Vancouver this time to cooperate with the Lancaster Group."
"Is that so?" Yvonne blinked in a daze. "I didn't know. I f I knew, I wouldn’t have kept it from you."
"Alright then. Be alert next time,” Henry said in a low voice while pinching his eyebrows.
"Yeah, I will." She nodded repeatedly and walked towards him to ask carefully, "Are you not angry with me now?"
Henry knew that she was referring to the earlier incident. He lowered his eyelids and faintly replied," There's nothing to be angry about."
He didn't want to admit that he was angry because he was jealous.
"Are you really not angry?" Yvonne still didn't believe him.
Henry poured himself a glass of water. "It’s up to you whether you want to believe it or not. Stop talking now. I have a headache." 1
"Headache?" Upon hearing this, Yvonne suddenly became nervous and she didn’t care whether he was angry or not. She hurriedly ran to him and checked on him. She found that he didn't look too good and she was concerned.
"Henry, do you have a fever?" Yvonne asked while she reached out to touch his forehead.
But when she touched it, his forehead didn't feel hot. H e was fine.
“Could it be that drinking too much gave you a headache?" Yvonne put her hand down and muttered i n confusion.
Henry closed his eyes. "I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while."
"No way. What if something goes wrong? I better go out and ask the hotel to get a doctor." Yvonne was about to go out.
Henry grabbed her arm and dragged her to the sofa. "N o need for that."
"But..."
"Hush," Henry told her to shut up again.
This time, the tone wasn’t as harsh and cold as before.
But Yvonne still felt uncomfortable because she really cared for him.
However, he told her to shut up.
"Henry, are you really okay?" Yvonne was still worried about him.
After all, a headache wasn’t a small matter.
Henry waved his hand. "I'm fine."
"I’ll give you a massage. Perhaps you’ll feel better."
After speaking, she stood up and walked to the back o f the sofa. She straightened his head and pressed his temples.
After about ten minutes of massaging, she stopped for a while and leaned over to look at Henry.
Henry opened his eyes. "Why did you stop?"
"Well, I just want to see if you feel better," Yvonne said.
Henry took another sip of water. "I feel better now.
You can stop."
Yvonne put her hand down. "Really?"
Henry hummed. He stood up from the sofa and said, "I should go and have an alliance meeting with them now. Are you going to wait for me here or are you going to head back first?"
"I'll wait for you here," Yvonne replied without thinking.
