While she was amused by Jacqueline’s behavior, she couldn't help but glance at Henry sympathetically.
This was the woman he loved. When she heard that h e was drunk, not only did she not care about him, but all she cared about was his female partner.
She thought to herself, 'This man has truly failed!'
On the other end of the phone, Jacqueline was shocked when she heard Yvonne's words.
Yvonne was right. Based on her understanding of Henry's personality, had he not agreed, who would dare to pretend to be his female companion? Who would even dare to approach him?
So was that woman really Henry's female companion?
As Jacqueline thought about it, she was so furious that her face was distorted. "Who are you?"
Why would Henry agree to have this woman as his female companion?
What was so special about this woman?
In the past six years, even though his feelings for her returned due to his memory loss and he married her, h e never allowed her to be close to him. He even insisted on sleeping in separate bedrooms with her for the past six years. He never took her to any events, nor did he introduce her to those wealthy ladies in his
circle.
Although she was unhappy, she still held it in because she thought there was no other woman beside him.
But this was different. A woman had suddenly appeared beside him. How could she stay calm!
"Who am I?" Yvonne teased her soft wavy hair and laughed playfully, "Mrs. Lancaster, you’ll find out soon. Anyway, I have to go soon. Mr. Lancaster is safe with me so don't worry, I’ll take good care of him, goodbye!"
After she said that, she hung up the phone and burst out laughing with her hands on her stomach.
She could imagine Jacqueline's reaction on the other end of the phone. She was probably livid when she heard what Yvonne said.
But she deserved it!
When her marriage with Henry still existed, Jacqueline also provoked her like that. At the time, Jacqueline didn't care about her feelings either.
So Yvonne was just giving Jacqueline a taste of her own medicine and Jacqueline couldn't stand it. This showed that she didn't know how painful it was until i t happened to her.
Yvonne narrowed her eyes and licked the corner of her mouth as she made a decision in her heart.
Since her action had obviously affected Jacqueline, she might as well go on.
She wanted to see if Jacqueline and Henry's marriage could go on with her meddling!
Besides, Jacqueline didn't really care about being Mrs. Lancaster. She cared about money and power the most, didn't she?
She shall make Jacqueline lose all of that!
As Yvonne thought about this, she turned to look at the man on the bed and her eyes flickered brightly.
After a while, she pursed her lips before suddenly picking up her bag and slamming it on him. She then let out a long sigh of relief, "I feel better now!"
In the past few years, she had felt resentful towards this man. She thought about it many times, and she decided that she must beat him up when she saw him again.
Now that she had done that, she felt much better.
Knock knock knock!
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Yvonne adjusted her mood and walked towards the door, "Who’s that?"
"Miss Smith, it's me, Joe!" Joe's voice sounded outside the door.
Yvonne thought that he was probably here for Henry, s o she turned the doorknob without hesitating.
As soon as the door opened, Joe dashed in and ran towards the bed.
When he rushed to the bed, he saw Henry lying on the bed nicely with his clothes on, and there was no weird smell in the air. He was relieved.
So far so good...
