Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 399

But just when her pink lips were about to touch the man's cheek, his eyes flashed and he suddenly turned his head.

Their lips met and Yvonne was stunned. Her eyes opened wide as she looked at him inconceivably and she couldn't even react.

When the man saw that she was in a daze, his handsome face lit up like he just saw something interesting. Before she could react, he clasped the back of her head firmly to give her a deeper kiss.

"Um..." Yvonne was unprepared, and by the time she came to a realization, it was too late to struggle.

The man held her tightly, and there was nowhere to run.

His kissing skills were good and Yvonne couldn't stand it anymore. She quickly gave in and her entire body felt weak and limp. She stayed in his embrace without resisting.

Yvonne didn't know how much time had passed when she suddenly felt breathless, so she pinched the man.

The man noticed it and let her go, ending the long kiss that felt almost like a century.

"Huff... Huff..." After getting freed, Yvonne lowered her head and breathed in the fresh air.

Henry frowned slightly when he saw her like this. He said, "You've done this so many times. Why do you still forget how to breathe?"

Yvonne raised her head and glared at him when she heard him, but she was kissed so passionately that her face was flushed and her eyes were moist. Thus, her glare didn't seem threatening at all, but rather flirtatious. It almost seemed like a different person.

Not only that, but her voice sounded softer, "Really? I haven’t even blamed you for lying to me!"

"What did I lie about?" Henry crossed his arms and looked at her.

Yvonne snorted and turned her head to the side. "You asked me to kiss you but you actually stuck your mouth out!"

"Yeah, I did ask you to kiss me, but I didn't mention where," Henry said calmly.

Yvonne was anxious. "You didn't say it, but the first thing you did was lean closer with your face. Isn't it obvious that you were asking me to kiss your cheek?"

"Is it?" Henry looked at her and denied it.

Yvonne raised her fists in anger and punched him in the chest.

But before her fist touched his chest, Henry held it and said, "Okay, that’s enough." "What’s enough? I didn't do anything." Yvonne pulled her hand back.

Henry let go of her and stood up to tidy up his messy clothes. "After Hayden returned to the Taylors, he tried to stir the pot between Shaw and Dominic. The two actually came together just for the purpose of plotting against the Lancasters together so the level of trust they have for each other wasn't high to begin with. Hayden took advantage of this and made Shaw think that Dominic betrayed him."

"And then what happened?" Yvonne calmed down and listened carefully.

Henry adjusted the tie clip on his chest and continued, "Then Shaw believed him and went to warn Dominic, but before he did, Hayden contacted Dominic and told him that Shaw no longer wanted to work with him and was trying to backstab him to take over his power."

"Dominic believed it?" Yvonne asked.

Henry sneered, "Dominic obviously believed it. He auctioned off the Conrads’ company so he did not have much power left. He only has a large sum of money. Therefore, in this pact with Shaw, he was on the losing end and he couldn't even be equal to Shaw. Shaw treats him like a nobody."

"Since Dominic is a nobody to Shaw, why would he believe that Shaw will backstab him that easily?" Yvonne’s nose wrinkled as she could not understand.

In her opinion, Shaw did not care about Dominic and i f he didn’t even see him as an equal, he obviously wouldn't bother plotting against Dominic either.

After all, dealing with a nobody that you look down on was a bit of a shame.
