Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 506

"I'm already back at the hotel." Yvonne poured herself a glass of red wine and took a sip before she replied.

Shane adjusted his glasses. "That's good. I was thinking if you were still at the company, I could pick you up after Theo."

"Thank you for the thought," Yvonne said with a smile.

Shane leaned back in the chair and said, "No need, it's what I should do. Anyway, I’ve got to go, Yvonne. I have a patient."

"Well, goodbye!" Yvonne said goodbye.

Shane also responded, "Goodbye!"

After she hung up the phone, Yvonne put down her wine glass and got up from the sofa as she tried to go t o her room by jumping with one leg only.

After she came out of her room with a change of clothes, the doorbell rang.

Yvonne hopped over and opened the door. Standing outside was a hotel room attendant in a uniform.

"Hello, Miss Smith. Mr. Lancaster asked me to come and take care of you." The waiter greeted her.

Yvonne stood aside. "Come in."

The waiter nodded and walked into the room. He then handed her what he had brought. "Miss Smith, this is something that Mr. Lancaster specially asked our hotel to prepare for you."

"Huh?" Yvonne turned around curiously to find that the hotel room attendant was actually holding a pair o f crutches.

She had not seen it just now.

"Mr. Lancaster asked you to prepare this?" Yvonne asked.

The attendant responded, "Yes."

Yvonne took one and clamped it under her armpits with a conflicted expression. With the support of the crutch, her body was instantly balanced, and she was not afraid of jumping with one leg and falling.

"He's quite considerate," Yvonne said softly.

The hotel room attendant heard her so he answered," Yes, Mr. Lancaster is very considerate indeed. He specially ordered these crutches and asked us to choose a soft support so that it wouldn't hurt your armpit. Miss Smith, Mr. Lancaster is really kind to you."

Yvonne smiled and said faintly, "Really huh." 1

The hotel room attendant didn’t understand what she meant by this, and he didn’t ask either. He followed behind her as he waited for her order.

Yvonne didn’t want someone to follow her around, so she sent the room attendant to the kitchen to cook while she relaxed in the living room.

When the room attendant finally prepared her meal, she let the room attendant leave.

With crutches, she could walk without anybody's help, so she did not need anyone to take care of her anymore.

Around four in the evening, Shane took Theo home as promised.

Theo saw Yvonne holding a pair of crutches and his tiny little face looked a little bit cold. He headed to his room, leaving Yvonne and Shane standing at the door as they looked at each other.

"What's wrong with Theo?" Yvonne looked at Theo’s petite figure as she wondered. 1

Shane touched his chin and said, "Theo seems to be angry."

"Angry?" Yvonne was shocked.

Shane nodded. "It seems like it, but I don't know for sure. After all, children with autism have very few emotions, some don’t even have any emotions, so I can't be sure if Theo's angry or not."

"Maybe you're right." Yvonne welcomed Shane in.

They talked as they walked into the living room.

"Hasn't Theo's autism been getting better recently? Although he still doesn't cry, laugh, speak, or have any expression, I could tell that he was shy through his body language the day before yesterday."

"Shy?" Shane was surprised.

Yvonne nodded. "Yes, it was when he called me 'Mom' with a note. That's why when you said that Theo might be angry, I just recalled how Theo looked and realized that he walked faster than usual, so maybe he really is angry."

However, she still didn’t know what he was angry about.
