Henry looked at his hands and he couldn't understand why.
At this time, the door of the lounge opened.
Yvonne came in with a new look. "Mr. Lancaster, we can go now."
Henry looked at her in a daze. "You..."
"Huh?" Yvonne tilted her head, confused.
After that, she realized what it was about and she twirled around at the door. "Does it look good?"
She was wearing a formal suit and now she had changed into a red knee-length slip dress, paired with a pair of silverfish white heels, making her legs look long, straight and fair, which was very beautiful.
Henry nodded. "Not bad!"
This woman was indeed beautiful.
Of course, the beauty was not all about her looks, but her personality and glowing confidence.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lancaster. Oh, and this." Yvonne held the purse in her hand and held it up in the air. "This is the purse you just gave me. I'm using it already, as it matches my dress."
"As long as you like it, Miss Smith." Henry glanced at the bag and felt a little inexplicable pleasure because she was using it already.
"Of course I like it. Let's go, Mr. Lancaster." Yvonne carried the purse on her shoulder.
Henry nodded and looked at Joe. "You can go back first."
"Okay." Joe nodded.
Henry retracted his gaze and left the lounge with Yvonne. They walked to the elevator.
Shortly after, they left the company building and arrived at the parking spot on the side of the road.
"Let’s go together in a car," Yvonne said.
Henry had no objection and took out his car key. "Let’s use my car then."
"Okay. After you, Driver Lancaster," Yvonne teased.
Henry wanted to laugh, but he held back as he pressed the button on the car key.
After a beep, the car lock was unlocked.
Yvonne walked to the passenger seat. As she walked t o the door and was just about to open it, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and stopped.
Henry noticed it and immediately looked at her." What's wrong?"
Yvonne retracted her hand from the car door. "It's nothing. It just feels like someone’s watching me."
And the gaze felt very hostile.
"Watching you?" Henry was startled and he started looking around, but he didn't see anybody suspicious.
"Well, maybe I was wrong." Yvonne smiled.
Henry raised his chin slightly, and didn’t say anything.
Yvonne opened the door to the passenger seat and got in.
Henry also got into the car.
Soon, the car drove away and quickly disappeared into the busy sea of cars. When the car was almost gone, a black car suddenly rushed out of the road and followed behind them.
In the car, Jacqueline squeezed the steering wheel as she stared at the back of Henry’s car with red eyes, and her expression was distorted.
