Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 363

"That's right." Elliot nodded. "Your housekeeper told him about you getting into my car, so he came looking for me."

"So... what did he say to you?" Yvonne asked while biting the fork.

Elliot rested his chin on his hand and looked at her." What do you expect he'd say?"

Yvonne didn't see that coming from him and her eyes flickered. Then, she answered vaguely, "What else can I expect?"

"Of course you’d expect that he'd ask about your whereabouts and safety." Elliot blinked at her.

Yvonne lowered her head. "He... probably wouldn’t ask about this."

"Ha! You're wrong." Elliot patted the table. "He did. He asked where I took you to and what I did to you."

Yvonne raised her head shockingly. "He did..."

"Yes, he asked that. You feel excited, don't you? Have you ever thought of going back to him?" Elliot leaned o n his chair and looked at her deeply.

Yvonne opened her mouth wanting to say something, but his glaze made her incapable of saying anything after that.

"I won't go back to him." She turned her head away and answered stubbornly.

She couldn't deceive herself. In fact, there was a moment where she wanted to go back to him.

In the end, her agitation caused her to suppress the idea of returning.

"Right. Since you're not going to file a divorce with him, you can’t live outside forever," Elliot crossed his arms and said lazily.

After hearing this, Yvonne lowered down her eyes and said, "I know. That's why I'm waiting."

"Waiting?" Elliot raised his eyebrows. "Waiting for him to come and pick you up?"

Yvonne hummed and said, "To be precise, I’m waiting for him to come and apologize to me."

She thought about it for a long time last night. She loved Henry and promised the old man that she would not divorce Henry unless he insisted on it. Otherwise, she would be his wife for eternity.

Since she was his wife, she would not live separately with him forever. She would have to return home one day. However, she felt resentful of her husband cheating and being framed by another woman. Yet, he didn’t apologize to her and was now in a cold war with her.

She couldn’t figure out how he could be so calm and ignore her feelings. All she ever wanted was very

simple: his attitude. Her husband's cheating was not o f his own will. If he apologized to her, she could let go o f her grievances and return to him because she loved him.

But he did not show anything, which was really disappointing.

"So when he apologizes, you'll forgive him and go back to him?" Elliot was able to tell immediately.

Yvonne hummed slightly, "Yes.”

"You'll be disappointed." Elliot spread his arms. "I think Mr. Lancaster doesn't seem like someone who will admit to his own mistakes and apologize."

"I know, he’s too arrogant. He doesn’t put down his pride, but he also offends others easily. That’s why Grandpa wanted me to..." Speaking of this, Yvonne suddenly realized something and quickly stopped talking. Then she had a sip of her milk from the side.

Even though she stopped her words in time, Elliot still caught the trace of annoyance in her eyes.

He squinted his eyes and asked inadvertently, "Why d o you stop? What did Master Lancaster ask you?"

"It's nothing," Yvonne smiled perfunctorily, "Grandpa asked to look after him, but obviously I'm letting him down." 1

"Is that so..." Elliot dragged the sentence out while lowering his eyelids to hide his thoughts.

Yvonne didn't notice him acting weird, so she put down the milk and asked, "By the way, what else did Henry say after asking you those questions?"

"Nothing else. He was very grateful to me after knowing that I didn't do anything to you and even arranged a place for you to stay." Elliot changed his expression and smiled charmingly.
