Shaw moved the walking stick away from her face and said, "Girl, this is not the question you should ask. Give her a set of clothes."
Soon, a set of clean clothes was delivered to her.
Shaw asked the bodyguard to untie Yvonne.
After loosening the ropes, Yvonne stood up by holding onto the pillar behind her and stretched her hands and feet before taking the clothes from the bodyguard.
She was very cold and she’d definitely catch a cold if she stayed any longer.
The consequences could be miscarriage if she caught a cold and she obviously didn't want that, so she was eager to change her clothes.
Moreover, judging by the words she heard Shaw said t o Henry, it was Henry who had fought for a clean set o f clothes for her, so she could not let his effort go in vain.
"Let's go. We shall wait for the arrival of the Lancaster. " Shaw controlled the wheelchair and turned towards the warehouse gate.
The four bodyguards followed behind.
Only Yvonne and Jacqueline were left in the warehouse.
Yvonne held her clothes as she went to check on Jacqueline.
Jacqueline's head was tilted and she was leaning on the pillar with her eyes closed—it seemed like she had lost consciousness.
She was probably knocked unconscious. No wonder there was no movement earlier.
Yvonne stopped paying too much attention to Jacqueline and looked away before walking to a clean place where she began to change clothes.
After changing her clothes, her body temperature gradually returned to normal. She no longer felt so cold and her tense body slowly relaxed.
Afterward, she sat down and rested.
After resting for about half an hour, Jacqueline mumbled and woke up.
She opened her eyes and immediately started cussing. She then turned to look at the pillar beside her.
When she saw that no one was there, she panicked. "Where is she?”
Why was Yvonne gone?
Could it be that Yvonne was rescued after she passed out?
As Jacqueline thought about this, she panicked and her eyes turned red.
If Yvonne was really rescued, what would she do?
Why didn't Henry save her?
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"
Yvonne was troubled by the sound of her screams, so she yelled impatiently: "Can you shut up?"
"Yvonne?" Jacqueline heard the familiar voice and her cries stopped abruptly as she looked at her incredulously.
When she saw Yvonne sitting in the dark, she smiled and no longer felt scared. It was her first time feeling happy about Yvonne's presence.
Great, Yvonne was still here and hadn't been rescued yet.
In other words, Henry hadn't arrived yet.
So she could still be saved!
"What are you laughing at?" Yvonne couldn't help feeling a little bit odd when she saw Jacqueline smiling at her eagerly.
It was as if she was prey that had been targeted by her.
"Do you have a problem with that?" After confirming that Yvonne was still there, Jacqueline calmed down and returned to her usual obnoxious look.
Yvonne didn't know where her off-putting confidence came from, but she didn't care either so she looked away.
At this time, Jacqueline discovered something was wrong and stared at Yvonne with wide eyes. "Where’s your rope? How did you untie it? And where did you get those clothes?"
Yvonne listened and replied casually, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Why?" Jacqueline felt that was extremely unfair, so she yelled with tears in her eyes. "Why did they give you clothes and untie your rope, but I don’t get anything and I'm still tied here!"
Yvonne gathered her coat and wrapped herself tighter. "You have to ask them. What's the point of asking me?"
