Henry ignored her and went upstairs.
Yvonne was not bothered at all. She could be just as happy alone.
Sue came over after working on her own errands. She saw Yvonne sitting on the sofa and giggling.
She was still a little puzzled. "Madam, what's the matter with you?"
Yvonne raised her head and glanced at Sue. She could not hide the joy in her eyes, "Henry agreed."
"Agreed to what?" Sue was curious.
Yvonne touched her stomach and replied, "He agreed t o try for a test tube baby when things are over."
"Really?" Sue was surprised.
Yvonne nodded. "Really."
Sue smiled in surprise. "This is really good news.
Madam, you should also tell master tomorrow to make him happy. Maybe his operation is more likely to be successful."
"Yes, I will," Yvonne answered.
"Where’s sir?" Sue looked around and asked again.
Yvonne pointed upstairs. "Probably in the study." "I see. You should go up and get some rest, madam, it's late." "I'll go in a while. I want to finish reading the remaining pages." Yvonne grabbed a design book from the coffee table and waved it.
Sue nodded. "Okay, I'll go back to my room now."
"Good night," Yvonne opened the design book and replied.
Sue left, and she was the only one left in the living room.
The living room was very quiet, with only the sound of her breathing and the sound of flipping pages of a book.
Yvonne finally finished reading her book and lost track of time.
After reading it, she stretched her stiff neck and looked at the pendulum clock in the corner, only to realize that it was almost twelve o'clock.
It was late and she wondered if Henry had finished working.
Yvonne thought to herself, then put the book back and got up.
When she got upstairs, she gazed towards the study. She raised her eyebrows when she saw that it was dark and there was no light peeking through.
There was no one in the study, so had he returned to the room?
Yvonne looked away and turned to look at the door of the room. As expected, there was light peeking through the crack of the door.
Why did he finish so early tonight?
Yvonne opened the door as she wondered.
Henry heard the movement and looked at her. "You're back?"
Yvonne nodded. "Well, you’re early today."
"If there's nothing else, go take a bath." Henry threw something to her.
Yvonne hurriedly caught it as it flew right in front of her, and realized that it was actually her pajamas.
He helped her prepare her pajamas! i
Yvonne glanced at Henry oddly. When Henry saw her standing there, he frowned a little. "Why are you still standing there? Go now!"
"Oh, I'm going now.” Yvonne snapped out of her daze and walked toward the bathroom.
When she came out of the shower, the light in the room had been turned off. Only the small bedside lamp was still on.
The dim light could barely illuminate the room. Yvonne looked towards the bed as she wiped her hair dry.
The man on the bed had lay down and his eyes were closed tightly. He seemed to be asleep, and his breathing was heavier than usual. One could tell he was extremely tired.
Not only did a lot of things happen in the past two days, but everything that happened was also nerve wrecking. So it was no wonder Henry was so tired. 1
She knew that Henry was the most exhausted and stressed out in the whole Lancaster family.
After wiping her hair, Yvonne walked to the bed, tiptoed, and stood motionless as she stared at Henry for a while.
