Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 358

Sue nodded. "Frederick told her."

Henry went silent and his eyelids drooped as he was lost in his thoughts.

Sue looked at him, then at Yvonne, and finally asked the question she had been wanting to ask so badly for the past two days, "Sir, did you and Jacqueline really..."

Henry clenched his teeth and his eyes were gloomy." I'm not sure!"

"Hm?" Sue was slightly stunned. "Not sure? So maybe nothing happened between you and Jacqueline?"

Henry went quiet again.

Yesterday, he did wake up on Jacqueline's bed, and he really was naked. The place was also covered with traces that would leave room for imagination.

However, there was no actual memory of what happened with Jacqueline in his head.

Although he was drugged at the time, it was impossible to have no memory at all. Therefore, he had suspicions that nothing happened between him and Jacqueline, since she was the only one who insisted they did. So that was why he said he was not sure.

Sue noticed that Henry did not speak, and she did not know what he meant. "Sir, it doesn't matter if you did anything with Jacqueline-you still hurt your wife. Have you thought about how to ask for her forgiveness?"

Henry looked at Yvonne's sleeping face, and his thin lips moved slightly. "I’ll have a good talk with her after my Grandpa's funeral is over."

"That's fine." Sue nodded.

Henry took a step forward and bent over to carry Yvonne to the room upstairs.

After he settled her down, he came out of the room to find that Joe was standing at the door of the room with a briefcase.

"Mr. Lancaster, the public relations department has announced the news of the chairman's death and the Lancaster Group's stock market is experiencing turbulence now. Would you like to deal with it personally?" Joe asked.

"No, just let the public relations department handle it." Henry walked toward the study with a blank expression.

Joe followed and continued, "Also, Frederick just called and would like to know when you’ll go back to the old residence to go through the old master's inheritance."

"We'll talk about Grandpa's inheritance later. The most important task now is to go talk to that woman, Jacqueline. She still hasn't explained what happened between us..."

"No..." Joe shook his head. "No matter how much I interrogated her, she still gave the same answers, so I was thinking maybe Mr. Lancaster, you really did..."

"No!" Henry refused with his brows furrowed. "I believe I wouldn't do that kind of thing."

"But how do you explain the traces on your body?" Joe looked at him.

Henry stopped. "Those traces could be forged."

"This..." Joe was stunned and it took him a moment to react. "If that’s the case, then why is she doing this?"

Henry pursed his thin lips. "It’s not that easy to find out. Let’s just torture her. I believe she’s going to give a n explanation!" 1

Joe's eyes widened as he could not believe what he just heard. "Torture her?"

"Yes. I’ll leave this matter up to you, and I want answers." Henry gave his order and walked away.

Joe still followed him closely. "I understand. I'll do as you say."

"Okay," Henry nodded and opened the door to the study.

The two talked for a long time in the study, and it was late already when Joe left.

Henry didn't go back to the room that night and spent the night in the study lounge instead.

He didn’t return to the room mainly because he was still unsure whether he did anything with Jacqueline, so he did not know how to face Yvonne.
