Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 99

Henry narrowed his eyes and stared at her.

Yvonne followed his gaze and looked downward, her face instantly a crimson red. "Where are you looking!"

"It's not as if I haven’t seen it." Henry withdrew his gaze.

Yvonne turned even redder.

Henry picked up the cup of cold coffee on the table and took a sip. "Remember, don't go around patting your chest next time, especially not in front of other men.”

"Okay." Yvonne agreed, nodding her head profusely.

Seeing her so obedient, there was a trace of satisfaction in Henry's eyes as he said, "One more thing."

"What else?" She looked at him.

Henry placed his coffee down. "The day after tomorrow will be remembrance day for the Lancasters. Do you remember when I promised to take you there the last time?"

"I do," Yvonne answered.

That was the day she was officially acknowledged as a member of the Lancaster family and she had always remembered it. It was certainly something she didn’t dare to forget.

"Since you remembered, you need to be prepared. You can ask Sue about some of the norms and rules. She'll teach them to you lest you commit some faux pas," Henry advised.

Yvonne committed it to her memory, "Okay, got it. Is there anything else?'

"No, you can go out now." Henry waved.

Yvonne stood still as she stared at her coffee cup, holding back her words.

When Henry saw her acting that way, he narrowed his eyes. "Do you want to say something?"

"Well..."

"Yes?"

"You should drink less coffee," she said softly while she twiddled her fingers.

Henry leaned back in his chair. "And what’s your rationale?"

"I heard that it isn’t good for the stomach and..." Yvonne bowed her head awkwardly.

"And what? Just say it straight." Henry picked up the cup of coffee again.

"It kills sperms!” Yvonne muttered those three words rapidly.

Coffee sprayed from his mouth.

Seeing that, Yvonne quickly took out her handkerchief and stepped forward to help him clean the stain on his suit, feeling very apologetic. "Sorry! Sorry! I didn't mean to..."

As she apologized, she rubbed his chest haphazardly.

Henry was already a little angry at himself for his gaffe. With Yvonne touching him non-stop, his body felt even hotter, and this made him angrier.

"Enough!" He stood up and took a step back to avoid her hand.

Yvonne thought that he refused her help because he was angry at her. For a moment, she stood in place at a loss, not knowing what to do.

"That’s enough, just get out!" Henry looked at his dirty and crumpled suit as he tried to chase her out of the room frustratedly.

"But..." Yvonne seemed like she wanted to say more.

Henry took a deep breath, his tone grew colder, "Get out!"

Yvonne didn't dare to stay. She clenched her handkerchief and left the office.

When he heard his office door close, Henry massaged his glabella and made an internal phone call to get Joe in his office.

"Mr. Lancaster, you’re..." Joe was surprised to find Henry in quite a mess.

Henry had no intention to explain the situation. "Go prepare a new set of clothes for me," he ordered.

"Okay," Joe answered and went to complete his task.

He quickly returned with a new set of clothes.

Henry went to the restroom and changed his clothes. When he returned, he saw Joe standing by his office desk pouring a cup of coffee. Henry immediately raised his brow, "What are you doing?"

"Pouring coffee," Joe replied.

Out of nowhere, Henry suddenly thought of the three words Yvonne said which previously made him lose his composure. He didn't expect it affected him so much that he suddenly couldn't really stand the sight of coffee. 1

"Stop pouring. Don't prepare coffee for me from today onward,” Henry ordered.

Joe was puzzled, "But Mr. Lancaster, don't you like black coffee most the most? Why do you want to suddenly stop having coffee?"
