Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 449

"There’s no way she can recover in Canada with her current condition. She needs to go abroad for treatment," Sam said while he sat on the bed.

The assistant scratched his head. "I understand, but she’s Mr. Lancaster's wife and it has nothing to do with you. Even if she needs to go abroad for treatment, Mr. Lancaster should be the one to take her there, not you."

Sam adjusted the quilt for Yvonne. "Henry doesn't know that she’s still alive, let alone the fact that she’s i n this situation right now."

"Then you should tell Mr. Lancaster," the assistant said disapprovingly.

Sam frowned. "Do you think I don’t want to? The problem here is that we don’t know the relationship between Henry and Jacqueline now. It won’t be good i f we rashly tell Henry that Yvonne's alive. From this incident, we can see that Jacqueline will harm Yvonne if Henry takes her back."

"This... seems like it," the assistant smiled lightly.

Sam turned his head to look at him. "Go and inform the Smith family that I’ll postpone my return date for a few days."

"Because of Miss Frey?" The assistant glanced at Yvonne.

Sam nodded. "I can’t leave her alone like this when no one's taking care of her."

"Okay, I got it. I'll go now," the assistant responded and went to do as he was told.

Three days later, Yvonne woke up. She wanted to open her eyes, but she realized that she couldn't. It felt like something was covering her eyes, hindering her vision.

Besides that, her body couldn't move—it was as if something was restraining her.

What was going on?

Where was she now?

Yvonne opened her mouth and wanted to ask if anyone was around. But when she opened her mouth, she realized that she couldn’t even make a sound.

What was wrong with her?

Yvonne's heart sank suddenly and she panicked.

Why?

Why couldn't she talk?

Yvonne's breathing became rapid and she breathed out unwillingly. She wanted to try again.

This time, she succeeded in making a sound, but the sound was faint. If she didn't listen carefully, she wouldn't be able to hear it and her throat stung.

With this pain, her memories were restored.

She remembered that Jacqueline had locked her up in an abandoned building, and then she was about to be burned to death. She was really burned and the fire covered her entire body, making her feel like she was i n hell.

She couldn't forget the pain of being burned, the despair of being swallowed by the fire, and the poisonous oath she made before she was about to be burned to death!

She swore that if she survived the fire, she would return what she suffered in double.

And now, she really survived!

Yvonne was so excited when she thought of this.

Then, her body that was unable to move trembled slightly. The monitoring equipment beside her bed detected a rise in blood pressure and she screamed suddenly.

Upon hearing the sound of the machine, the person from outside immediately burst in and walked towards the bed to press the emergency button. He looked at the trembling person on the bed with surprise. "Are you finally awake?"

This voice... It was Smith's!

Yvonne’s eyes were hot and she woke up from the hatred. Her mouth moved as if she wanted to say something.

When Sam saw it, he leaned down and put his ear next to her. He was stunned for a moment when he heard her hesitate, but she reacted quickly. He said with some uncertainty, "Do you want to thank me?"

Yvonne’s mouth moved again. This time, there was only one syllable.

Sam heard it clearly-she said yes.

Sam smiled lightly, “Don't say that. I should save you."

After speaking, several footsteps could be heard coming in from outside.
