Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 563

When Shane saw that she was at a loss, he changed the subject, hoping that she could calm down and not think about it too much.

Shane was a really good man, better than Henry. 2

But... she did not love him!

She was destined to disappoint him.

"Yvonne, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up. " Shane walked to the door of the villa and realized there was no one behind him. He turned around to see that Yvonne was still standing there. She seemed to b e thinking about something and she had a guilty expression on her face. 2

Yvonne heard his voice and she quickly pinched her cheeks to gather her thoughts and emotions before she replied, "I'm coming."

She then walked towards him after he said that.

After they entered the villa, Shane pressed a button on the wall of the living room.

Yvonne saw that the wall next to the button suddenly turned over, revealing a pathway.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise. "This is actually a secret door." "Yeah. Creative, huh?" Shane grinned with a wide

smile.

Yvonne added, "It's creative, but also outdated. I really didn't expect you to like this type of design."

"Well, it's safer this way. Not many would expect people to have such a design in their villas."

"You just mentioned that it’s safer. Is there anything i n the basement?" Yvonne asked curiously.

Shane nodded. "There are a lot of valuable medical specimens in the basement, which have been passed down through generations. The basement is practically a storage space dedicated to storing these specimens."

Yvonne replied, "I see. Then aren’t you afraid that Dr. Lucas will ruin those specimens since he’s locked up i n the basement?"

"It'll be fine, your men tied him up really well." Shane waved his hand casually.

Yvonne shrugged. "Well, since you've said so, shall we go down now?"

She pointed to the passage behind the wall.

Shane grunted in agreement and turned on the lights i n the passageway. "Come and follow me. Don't look around, I'm afraid those specimens might scare you."

Yvonne suddenly thought of something when she said that. She rubbed her bare arms. "Are they human specimens?"

"Yes," Shane answered her earnestly. "There are two of them. Also, there are some human organ specimens and various animal anatomical specimens."

"Woah..." Yvonne took a deep breath, and there was fear in her eyes. "Your basement is really..."

"Are you scared?" Shane stopped and turned to look at her.

The expression on Yvonne's face seemed extremely reluctant. "Well, a little. People are normally somewhat repulsed by that stuff, so I don’t understand why you want to lock Dr. Lucas in the basement."

"Because he won't be able to run away this way. He’s a psychiatrist and a professional hypnotist. People will get easily hypnotized by him if they're around him, and they might let him go. However, that won't happen when he’s locked up here. Your two subordinates are very afraid of the things in here and dare not come in, so there’s no need to worry about someone getting hypnotized by him," Shane replied in a serious tone.

Yvonne's mouth twitched. "Your explanation made a lot of sense, but I’m also afraid of those specimens. After hearing what you just said, I don’t think I can go i n either."

"Don’t worry. The display cabinets that store the specimens have curtains. I’ll close them later so you won't see them," Shane said.

Yvonne sighed, "I’ll never come to your villa again.

Shane laughed, "It was my fault for not letting you know beforehand. When you asked me about the safest place to keep a person, this was the only place I could think of."

"Fine, go and draw the curtains before I go in." Yvonne pushed him.

Shane responded by going in to draw the curtains, while Yvonne waited alone in the passage.

After waiting for about two or three minutes, Shane came back and gestured "okay" to her. She finally got ready and walked towards him.
