Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 485

Henry squinted his eyes. "No way. Even if it does happen, I won't mistreat you."

"Really..." Yvonne lowered her eyelids as she tried to conceal the mockery in her eyes.

He would not mistreat her?

Six years ago, had she not suffered enough because of him?

Why was he so sure that she would not be mistreated? He couldn't do it six years ago. Now she was nothing more than a stranger who looked like his ex-wife.

What made him so certain that she would never be mistreated and wronged?

As Yvonne thought about this, she sneered in her heart but she didn’t show it on her face at all. Instead, she pretended to be relieved. "Since Mr. Lancaster said so, then you must keep your promise, or else I won't do it!"

Henry agreed. 1

Yvonne stopped talking and took his arm as they walked towards the auction hall.

The auction was really lively, and various cultural relics were auctioned off one after another.

Yvonne was not interested in those cultural relics and had never raised her card once.

Henry was the same. He didn't intend to bid for anything.

Yvonne didn't ask him why he did not bid either. She waited quietly for the auction to end.

After the auction was over, it was time for a special banquet prepared by the organizers of the auction to entertain their guests.

Yvonne got two glasses of red wine from the waiter and walked towards the balcony. As she got closer to Henry, she saw him putting away his mobile phone from behind him.

"The girl in the photo is very cute. Is she your daughter?" Yvonne handed over one of the glasses of red wine.

Henry thanked her and accepted it before replying softly, "I guess she is."

"Really?" Yvonne raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She always knew that Henry was very kind to Jacqueline's daughter. So she thought he would graciously accept that and tell her that she was his daughter indeed. 1

However, he said 'I guess she is,’ which was a vague and uncertain answer.

Why was that?

Not only Yvonne couldn't figure it out, but even Henry couldn't figure it out himself.

He didn’t know why he said "I guess," but the first reaction in his heart earlier was to prevent her from thinking that the little girl in the photo was his daughter.

On the other hand, he didn't know why he didn't want her to misunderstand either.

"Well, she’s considered my daughter, because she's not my biological daughter." Henry took a sip of the red wine and looked at Yvonne as he replied back.

Yvonne's eyes flashed as she pretended to be surprised. "Not your biological daughter?"

Henry nodded again.

Yvonne pretended to be very intrigued and she asked again, "Did you adopt her?"

Henry didn’t answer-he just kept on drinking.

"You really did adopt her. You and your wife are really kind, huh? especially you. You're so kind to your adopted child as if she is your own. I heard you purchased a children's theme park especially for your daughter’s birthday, is that right?" When Yvonne said this, she slowly put a hand behind her back and clenched it tightly, which showed her anger at the moment.

He was so kind to Jacqueline's daughter to that point that he would just purchase a children's theme park.

Meanwhile, he didn't even know the existence of his biological son. 1

It was extremely ironic!

"Children's theme park?" When Henry heard Yvonne's words, there was confusion in his deep eyes. "You mean the one in the north part of the city?"

"Right." Yvonne sipped her wine.

Henry chuckled, "I didn't purchase it for Anna."

"Eh?" Yvonne was stunned. "No?"

Did she get the wrong information?

From what she heard, he obviously bought it for Jacqueline's daughter!

"Well, I just thought that the children's theme park could be a valuable acquisition, so I purchased it. But i t happened to be Anna's birthday, so the public simply speculated that I purchased it for Anna," Henry explained lightly.
