Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 85

"What did you say?” Both Mrs. Frey and Yvonne were shocked at the same time.

Henry smoothed his sleeves slowly. "I’m saying that I'll give you fifteen million dollars as long as Jason goes to jail for five years. Do you understand?"

"You..." Mrs. Frey pointed at him angrily, and her hand was trembling. "How could you say that? Jason is your brother-in-law no matter what. You..."

"He's not my brother-in-law." Henry blinked his eyes calmly. "I told you just now. I only approve of Yvonne i n the Freys. You want to blackmail me for fifteen million dollars. Certainly you must fulfill a condition, isn’t that right?"

"How light you treat this affair! But Jason didn't do anything illegal. How could you ask him to go to jail?" Mrs. Frey raised her chin smugly.

"How stubborn!" Henry sneered and looked toward Yvonne. "Tell her whether Jason did anything against the law."

Yvonne responded and nodded. "Mom, I told you just now. It's against the law for Jason to gamble. He will b e imprisoned if his crimes are exposed. Besides, he lost seven hundred thousand dollars to gambling. The sum of money was immense, and he will be imprisoned for a few years for that."

She did not exaggerate the facts.

She did look up similar cases online on her way to the Freys just now.

Mrs. Frey was anxious. She was no longer smug and calm. "Is... it true that he will be imprisoned for such a long time?"

"Yes." Yvonne nodded.

Mrs. Frey was as pale as a sheet now. "Then... what should we do? Are you really going to report Jason to the authorities?"

"This..." Yvonne turned and looked at Henry, asking for his opinion.

If he was not there, she could still make a decision.

But now that he was there, she subconsciously relied o n him in that matter.

Henry felt her gaze and tilted his head slightly to meet her eyes for a short while before he averted his gaze quickly. "I wouldn't do such a boring thing."

"Really?" Mrs. Frey was surprised, and she widened her eyes.

Henry pursed his lips. "The condition is that you need to advise him, so he won't go gambling anymore. If I ever learn that he's asking money from Yvonne again, I'll never let him off. Do you understand?"

Mrs. Frey understood his threat. She could not help but shiver. She nodded. "Yes, then how about the sum of fifteen million dollars..." "You still want that?" Henry raised his eyebrows.

That old lady was certainly quite greedy.

They were clearly mother and daughter. Why was there such a vast difference between their characteristics?

The mother was greedy. It was disgusting to see her like that. On the other hand, the daughter wanted nothing...

As he was thinking about that, he looked at Yvonne with his deep-set eyes.

Yvonne did not notice his gaze. She said to Mrs. Frey calmly, "Mom, which is more important? The money o r Jason? Do you really want Jason to go to jail?"

"Damn it! What are you talking about now? Who wants Jason to go to jail?” Mrs. Frey retorted.

She wanted the money so badly, but she cared more about her son.

She was constantly thinking about having a son. At last, her wish was granted.

She adored him deeply.

"So you don't want the money anymore, is that so?" Henry looked at the watch on his wrist.

Mrs. Frey took a deep breath, suppressing the great reluctance deep in her heart.

Henry sneered. "There are not a lot of people who can threaten me in this world. The Freys are certainly not one of those people. If you ask Yvonne for money, and she's fine with it, I won't bother about it. But if you want to do the same to me, don't even think about it. I’m leaving now!"

He directed the last utterance at Yvonne.

Yvonne looked at him as he disappeared from her sight. Then, she glanced at Mrs. Frey who was still in a daze. "Mom, I told you beforehand not to offend Henry. You didn't listen to me!"

After that, she shook her head and ran after Henry quickly.

"Henry!" Yvonne left the residential building and ran toward Henry.

Henry stopped walking and waited for her.

When Yvonne saw that, she was quite surprised. She quickened her pace and stopped beside him. "Thank you, Henry."
