Yvonne curled her lips slightly, "Since he wanted us to rescue Jacqueline before telling me the truth about m y mom's car accident, let's send someone to beat him u p and see if he can resist."
"You..." Henry was very surprised that she would do this. "Are you sure you want to get someone to beat him up?"
Yvonne bit her lower lip. "What else can we do then? W e can't be led by Dominic Conrad and I don't want you t o be controlled by others because of me."
Henry laughed, "You... Even if you've grown up, you still have a soft heart."
Yvonne lowered her head. "I'm only soft-hearted to the people I care about. I won’t be soft-hearted to people like Dominic Conrad, even if he's my biological father."
Furthermore, her father wanted her to die, so why should she care about their relationship?
"Okay, I got it." Henry rubbed her hair, then looked at the two bodyguards who were guarding the door. "Do you guys hear what madam said?"
"Yes, Mr. Lancaster."
"Do as she said." Henry waved.
After the two bodyguards answered, they entered the room behind Yvonne.
Soon, Yvonne heard the painful cry from the room and the interrogation from the two bodyguards.
She thought that someone like Dominic Conrad couldn't stand the beating at all and he would spit everything out within a second.
This time, however, she underestimated him.
This middle-aged man was much more ruthless than she imagined. After such a beating, he didn’t say a word except for a cry of pain.
Yvonne looked into the room and took a quick glance. She saw that Dominic Conrad had been beaten badly that he almost fainted. She quickly stopped them.
"What's wrong? Why did you ask them to stop?" Henry asked her deliberately.
Yvonne took a deep breath, "It's not good if we kill him. We'll get karma."
Henry chuckled, "But he didn't say anything."
Yvonne clenched her fists. "His mouth is indeed very tight when it comes to Jacqueline. I've underestimated him. I thought that he couldn't resist and didn't expect that he'd be so cruel to himself. But come to think of it, if he's not cruel, he'd have regretted what he did to me after knowing that I'm his daughter."
"Huh?" Henry asked curiously.
Yvonne rubbed her sore temples. "Here's the thing.
Dominic Conrad knew that I was his daughter long ago. Shaw Taylor's the one who told him that.”
"Really?" Henry raised his chin and then asked, "He won't even surrender in this situation. What are you planning to do next?"
"To be honest, I run out of ideas,” Yvonne smiled bitterly.
Initially, she wanted to make Dominic Conrad suffer and tell the truth, but Dominic Conrad withstood it. She couldn't help but respect that.
"In fact, there’s another way, which is similar to getting someone to beat him up," Henry said suddenly.
Yvonne looked at him and said, "You mean to torture him?"
Henry nodded.
Yvonne quickly shook her head. "No way. We'll break the law."
"So leave the rest to me. Wait for me here." With that, Henry tapped her forehead and entered the room.
About ten minutes later, he came out.
Yvonne grabbed his arm and asked, "How is it?"
"I promised him to rescue Jacqueline," Henry answered while looking at her face.
Yvonne's face froze for a moment, a little unhappy." Why?"
She didn't want to rescue Jacqueline.
With her hatred for the Conrad family, she wished that Jacqueline would never return.
"Dominic Conrad's mouth is very tight. He knows very well that he can't escape from two endings: one is death, and the other is imprisonment. He's gone all out and only wants Jacqueline to return. So before Jacqueline comes back, he won't say a thing." Henry analyzed the situation.
After hearing, Yvonne bit her lip unhappily, "He really loves Jacqueline.”
