Henry explained in detail, "She initially took cover under that organization, but after Joe found out about i t, she went and took cover somewhere else."
"Took cover somewhere else?" Yvonne frowned.
Henry pinched the bridge of his nose. "Yes, she's no longer in that organization. After I talked to the leader of that organization, he told me that Jacqueline had left."
"Do you believe him?" Yvonne suddenly asked.
Henry smiled. "Of course I don’t. Jacqueline must still be in that organization, and that leader said those things on purpose just to mislead me."
"I think so too. First of all, if Jacqueline left, where else can she go? We’re not by the sea, so there's no way for her to sneak out of the city. The possibility of her leaving Vancouver is very small. The only possibility i s that the leader is lying. But why would he try to protect Jacqueline? Is Jacqueline that important to him?" Yvonne couldn't figure it out. i
Henry reached out and touched her brows. "Don’t frown, you look ugly like that."
"I don’t care." Yvonne swatted his hand away.
Henry looked at the back of his hand that had gone red after she slapped his hand. He was not angry. He simply withdrew his hand and went on, "Don't worry, we should hear back from them soon."
"What did you do?" Yvonne noticed his confidence and suddenly realized that he must have done something.
Henry smiled, "When I went to see the leader, I took the opportunity to install a bug. That was actually my real intention of seeing him. If I asked Joe to go by himself, the leader wouldn't see him."
"I see." Yvonne suddenly realized what he had done.
So that was the reason why he went personally.
"But aren't you afraid that the leader might find out? What if the leader..."
"Are you worried about me?" Henry interrupted her.
Yvonne's expression changed and she turned her head away. "No, I'm not. Who cares about you?"
"Weren't you worried just now?"
"No, I said I'm not!" Yvonne shouted. 1
Henry looked at her with a smile. "Fine, you're not, but I'll just assume that you are. Don't worry, he won’t find out. That leader has been at the top for too long and it’s been so long that he let his guard down about all the warnings and advice he got when he fought for the position as a leader. All that's left in him is ignorance and arrogance." "So you mean that because of the leader's arrogance, h e wouldn't expect you to install a listening device on him?" Yvonne understood what he meant.
Henry nodded. "Yes, this is a common problem among high-ranking people."
"I can tell that you have it too." Yvonne glanced at him.
Henry smiled and didn't refute as he agreed as well.
After a while, he stood up and said, "Well, let's get some food first. Joe will be monitoring them. I believe i t won't take long before we hear back from him."
Yvonne nodded and got up to head to the dining room with him.
After the meal, she wanted to leave.
However, Sue stopped her since she didn't want her to leave.
In the end, Yvonne couldn't reject Sue and it was getting late anyway. It would be dangerous to go back, so she agreed to stay.
Sue happily went to clean up her room, and the room she had chosen was next to Henry's room.
Yvonne obviously knew that Sue did it on purpose, but she didn't say anything. The room was still next door after all and she didn't need to share a room with Henry.
Moreover, she was no longer a member of the Lancaster family, so she had no right to ask Sue to get her another room.
"Theo will be sleeping with me tonight. I haven't been with Theo for so long," Yvonne suddenly said before returning to the room.
She was Theo's mother, so everyone naturally had no problem with that. They happily handed Theo to her.
Yvonne hugged Theo and kissed him. She then followed behind Henry and walked to the room.
When they arrived at the door of the room, Yvonne went directly into her room without saying anything t o Henry.
Henry raised his eyebrows when he saw her closing the door coldly. He laughed and entered his room next door.
