Yvonne heard the movement behind her, but she ignored it. After Henry opened the car door, she bent down and got into the car.
An hour later, they returned to the family residence.
Sue had prepared the meal, so both of them took Theo to the dining room for dinner.
After dinner, Henry went to the study room to settle some work while Yvonne played with Theo in the bedroom.
Suddenly, her mobile phone next to her rang.
Yvonne took a look and saw it was a message request on WhatsApp. She quickly clicked in.
Once she clicked in, she found out that it was Lynette who had sent her the request.
Yvonne whispered, "How did she send me this?"
For a moment, her expression changed into a trance.
Lynette used to be her best friend, but Jacqueline bewitched her to poison Grandpa's tea, so she was sentenced to twenty years.
But she was sending her a request now. Was Lynette out of jail?
Thinking about it, Yvonne hurriedly accepted the request and was about to type to ask if she was
Lynette.
Then Lynette sent the first message. "Is this Yvonne?"
After seeing the message, Yvonne was silent for a moment. Then, she deleted the question she had just typed and replied with a "Yeah."
This time, Lynette had called Yvonne directly.
Yvonne’s phone vibrated suddenly and she almost threw it out.
But in the end, she settled down and answered the call. Lynette's voice passed through the phone. "Yvonne..." Yvonne recognized it immediately, but Lynette didn't sound as lively and cheerful as before. She was left with vicissitudes and hoarseness.
Yvonne was upset and heartbroken. She felt distressed and hummed, "It's me."
Lynette said with a smile, "It's really you. I was trying t o send a message to your previous phone number to see if I could get to you. Unexpectedly, it works."
Yvonne took a deep breath. "I changed my number, but I didn’t change my WhatsApp so you can find me. But how do you have a phone? Are you out of jail?"
Lynette touched her short hair and said, "Yes, I made a great contribution some time ago, so my sentence was reduced by a few years, and I'm serving sentences outside of jail. As long as I'm within the surveillance o f the police, I can work and rest normally."
Yvonne lifted her chin. "I see. Congratulations." "Thank you," Lynette choked, and then she said, "After I came out, I heard them saying that Yvonne had died six years ago. I didn’t believe it. Then I asked around and saw a photo of Mr. Lancaster's current wife. I found out that it was you in the photo, but the name was different. Yvonne, what's going on?"
Yvonne touched her son’s hair and then told her what happened back then.
After hearing the story, Lynette realized that her best friend had gone through so many dangers.
Lynette cried and apologized, "I'm sorry, Yvonne. I betrayed you for my selfish desire. I'm really sorry.”
It would be fake if Yvonne said that she didn't mind, but she couldn't hate her when Yvonne heard Lynette crying.
Yvonne said sincerely, "Well, it's all over. Now that you're out, live a good life and stop doing those things."
Lynette hummed, "I know and I won't do that anymore. I've contacted my parents. They're very happy to hear that I'm out. Moreover, I heard that someone has been transferring some money to them these years. Although it's not much, it's enough for them to make a living."
Upon saying this, her voice choked up, "My parents don't know where the money comes from, but I know i t must be you, right? Yvonne, you've been helping me
take care of my parents, right?"
Yvonne smiled. "Your parents were very kind to me back then. If they didn't help me from time to time, I wouldn’t be able to live peacefully when I was in the Frey family, so I should take care of them.”
Lynette was still crying. "Thank you. Thank you very much..."
Yvonne's lips moved. As soon as she was about to say something, the room door was pushed open and Henry came in from the outside.
"Alright, Lynette. I gotta go. Let's meet up someday."
Lynette wiped her tears and nodded. "Okay."
Yvonne hung up the phone.
