Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 83

Sue thought for a moment. "I guess it's been two hours by now. After you came home, the master drank a cup of tea before he went out."

"Two hours..." Yvonne tightened her grasp around the handrail.

He had been gone for such a long time. He even left the minute he was home.

She was unsure whether he left because of his injuries, or if he had the urge to meet Jacqueline.

Maybe both reasons could be applied there.

Yvonne sighed softly. She walked toward the sofa and took a seat. "By the way, Sue, how did I return home?"

"Master certainly lifted you up and brought you home." Sue smiled.

Yvonne was slightly stunned as she was pouring herself a glass of water. "Did he lift me up and bring m e home?"

"Yes, you were asleep at that time. The master lifted you up from the car and brought you back to the bedroom." 1

"Oh... is that so?" Yvonne lowered her head and took a sip of water. However, she could not be glad about that. Instead, she was rather worried about him.

According to what Sue said, Henry lifted her up and brought her back to the bedroom. Then, he must have lifted her up when they got down from the plane.

His back injuries had not recovered yet. Why did he not wake her up? 1

She wondered whether he hurt himself while lifting her up.

Yvonne quickly put down the glass of water when she thought about that. She soon gave Henry a call.

But it was hung up after it rang twice.

Yvonne was confused. She looked at the phone and realized that she did not hang up the phone by herself accidentally. So called Henry again.

But it yielded the same result. It was hung up again.

"Didn't sir pick up the phone?" Sue could not help but ask Yvonne when she saw her putting down the phone.

Yvonne nodded her head. "Yes, he hung up."

"He might have gone back to the office, so he's busy right now." Sue consoled her, indicating not to think too much about it.

Yvonne forced a smile. "Maybe."

She got up and went upstairs.

After two minutes, she changed her clothes and came downstairs again. 1

Sue realized something when she saw her look." Madam, are you heading to the company?"

"No, I'm going to my mom's place," Yvonne replied.

She wanted to ask her parents whether they knew about Jason's situation.

Sue wiped her hands clean and asked, "May I know when you'll be home so I can prepare dinner for you?"

Yvonne glanced at the pendulum wall clock. "I might come home late. I'll tell you beforehand."

"Sure. Have a safe journey." Sue sent her off.

Yvonne hailed a taxi as soon as she left the villa.

It was an hour later when she reached the Freys.

Yvonne had no key, so she could only stand at the door and knock on the door.

"Who is that?" Mrs. Frey's clear voice was heard.

Yvonne replied immediately. "Mom, it's me."

"Why are you home?" Mrs. Frey was eating nuts as she came out to open the door for her. She lowered her eyes and glanced at Yvonne’s hands in a nitpicky way.

Her facial expression worsened as she realized that Yvonne came home without bringing any gifts for her.

Yvonne noticed that her mother was slightly annoyed. Her eyes became gloomy too. "I came to visit you and Dad."

"Didn't you think of bringing us something given that you're here for a visit?" Mrs. Frey pouted her lips.
