Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 46

Yvonne opened her mouth in astonishment, "You..."

"Enough!” Henry squeezed her hand with the right amount of force, "I told you I'd accompany you up there. Why are you being so stubborn? Let's go!"

He dragged her out of Jacqueline's ward.

On their way upstairs, Yvonne kept staring at her hand which was in Henry's. A while after that, she finally returned to her senses with a silent smile.

With Henry in front of her, she wouldn't be scared to g o on a battlefield, let alone a bone marrow donation surgery.

She had also gotten over the fact that Henry still had Jacqueline in his heart. In any case, she was the one whom he married. Since Henry had also said that he wouldn’t get back with Jacqueline, it was all the assurance she needed. 6

As long as she could stay by his side, Yvonne believed that Henry would eventually see her for who she was one day. 1

With this optimistic thought in mind, Yvonne put on the surgical gown and laid down on the surgical bed. Under Henry's watch, she was pushed into the operating room by the nurse.

Shane hovered above her, wearing a surgical mask."

Are you ready?”

Yvonne took a nervous breath, "Yes, I am.”

"Let us commence the surgery then," Shane gave her a serious nod. He ordered the other nurses while putting on a pair of latex gloves, "Administer the anesthesia!"

One of the nurses came forward, "Right away.”

Yvonne could neither lift her head nor see the nurse's movements. She only felt a pinch on her arm, followed by the sensation of a cold liquid coursing through the veins in her body.

Very soon after that, she started feeling weak as her vision gradually blurred. She slowly shut her eyes and became oblivious to the world around her...

By the time she woke up, she was already back in her ward. The noise of someone crying next to her made her head spin.

"Sue?” Yvonne moved her body. Her voice cracked from her dry throat.

Sue hurriedly wiped her tears and turned around when she heard Yvonne’s voice, "Madam, you're awake!"

“Yeah..." Yvonne responded weakly as she tried to sit u P-

Sue hurriedly stopped her from moving when she saw that, then forced her to lie back down again. "Madam, you can’t move too much after the surgery! Please lie down!" “Fine, fine! I won't move!" Yvonne didn't know if she should be laughing or crying, but laid down obediently again.

Sue gave her a satisfied smile upon seeing her obedience.

Yvonne looked at her and suddenly asked, "What time is it now, Sue?"

Sue checked the time, "Almost two in the afternoon.”

Yvonne racked her brain. "How long has passed since my surgery?"

"Exactly a day."

"Only a day huh...?" Yvonne mumbled to herself softly.

It wasn't that long.

She thought that at least two or three days had passed.

Sue tucked the blanket into the bed and asked nervously, "Madam, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Yvonne shook her head, "No, my body just feels sore..."

"Of course you would feel sore after surgery!" Sue pressed the call button on the bedside and pitied Yvonne.

Yvonne smiled at her, feeling warmth in her heart. "By the way, why are you here, Sue? I don’t recall telling you about the surgery."

"Sir asked me to come take care of you after the surgery. I thought something happened to you, but I ended up finding out that you've donated your bone marrow. How could sir do this to you!" Sue said indignantly with a stern face.

Yvonne didn't feel anything. In any case, she had donated the bone marrow so she could only accept the fact.

She was only a little disappointed that Henry wasn't around when she woke up.

"Did Henry come here?" Yvonne asked hopefully.

Sue turned her head away and couldn't bear to look at Yvonne. "No, sir has been with that Conrad woman all this while!”

Yvonne's face froze as the lights in her eyes gradually dimmed. "I see..."

"Don't be sad, madam. I'll get sir to come over now." Sue got up and was about to go find Henry.

Yvonne pulled her back and smiled while forcing herself to put on a strong facade. “Don't go, Sue. There's nothing wrong with Henry being worried about Miss Conrad since she has just gotten her surgery done. Let him spend more time with her. I'll b efine." 3
