Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 58

"Abortion?" The corners of Yvonne’s lips twitched. " Lyn, aren't you thinking too much? How could I have gotten an abortion when I've been dreaming for a baby?"

"Since it's not an abortion, then..."

"Nevermind, why are you up here for me? Not worried about your manager faulting you?” Yvonne switched the subject quickly, afraid that Lynette was going to utter more jaw-dropping ideas.

"Our manager went out, and you can't fault me like that," Lynette said gleefully holding the cup. "I'm just here to see you since I heard that you were back, and I wanna tell you something."

"What?” Yvonne asked while she turned on her computer.

"The team-building trip, of course."

"Team building?" Yvonne was stunned.

Lynette side-eyed her. "You wouldn't have forgotten, would you?"

Yvonne chuckled dryly.

"Oh my!" Lynette slapped the table. "Yvonne, you're amazing. How could you even forget our company's annual team-building event?”

"Too much happened recently. I can’t remember all these things. And I’m not interested in the event either. We're probably going to karaoke, how boring," Yvonne commented flatly.

Lynette wagged her finger with a mysterious smirk. "N o, no, it’s different this time. Since our company was acquired by Mr. Lancaster and became one of the Lancaster Group’s subsidiaries, we’re super rich now. Mr. Lancaster's specifically allocated a big budget for the team build."

“For real? Who did you hear it from?" Yvonne looked a t her friend skeptically.

As Henry’s secretary, even she did not know about it.

"Our manager, of course. I overheard it when he was o n the phone with Mr. Lancaster but that's not important. What's important is that we're going abroad for this team building." Lynette rubbed her hands together in ecstasy.

Yvonne was in slight disbelief. "We have a few hundred employees here. How much must it cost to have everyone travel abroad?!"

"I didn’t say that everyone's going abroad. Those who get to travel overseas for the team building are basically high-ranking executives and high-performing employees of the company. Luckily, I was chosen!" Lynette gloated as she waved the ID hanging i n front of her chest.

Yvonne shook her head with a chortle before she

asked, "Which country are we going to?"

As Henry's personal secretary, she would naturally be going as well. At this age, however, she had never stepped out of the country she was born and bred in, s o she thought that it would be a good idea to find out more about the destination prior lest she embarrassed the man.

"I don't know. The details haven't been announced yet. I just heard that we’re going skiing. Oh right, do you know how to ski?" Lynette eyed Yvonne in a once-over.

Yvonne waved her hands swiftly, to which Lynette nodded like she had known. "I expected it too. You don't look like you know how to ski either."

"Yeah, so what? I can watch from the side." Yvonne pouted.

"It's boring to just watch. You’ve got to learn a little."

"Nah, forget it. Extreme sports like this aren't up in my alley. Okay, go back now. I need to start working." Yvonne hauled Lynette up from the chair and pushed her toward the door.

Checking the time, Lynette could only leave reluctantly guessing that her manager was coming back despite her wish to stay longer.

Once she left, the office was instantly quieter.

Yvonne sighed softly and sat back down at her desk, mumbling to herself, "Skiing huh... Henry should know how to ski right?"

She immediately faced her computer to search more about skiing. More than ten minutes later, she was sprawled on the table in despair.

She had wanted to look up information to see if she could possibly learn how to ski, but she was resigned t o her fate. The textual skiing course already looked complicated, and Yvonne could imagine how difficult i t must be in reality. Someone without a single sport-inclined cell like her really should not be even thinking about partaking in such a sport.

She would be better off as a spectator. If Henry was going to ski, she could even secretly snap photos of him in action. He must look dashing!
