Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 155 French Tutoring

"No, no." Yvonne hurriedly waved her hand. "It’s not that I'm not satisfied with what I have right now, but staying at home and not going to work, it's too boring.

I want to do something..."

"Well then, I have something for you," Henry's mouth twitched.

Yvonne felt something strange. She shrunk her neck and asked tentatively, "Henry, is there something you want me to do?"

"I'll ask Mr. Woods to look for a French teacher to help you brush up on your French.” Henry crossed his legs.

Yvonne’s eyes twitched. "French tutoring?"

"Yes, you are my wife. There will be countless events that we will have to attend in the future and you can't avoid meeting foreign businessmen. Unless you’re telling me that you won't be talking to them or you’ll b e hiring an interpreter by your side?" Henry looked up at her.

Yvonne swallowed her saliva. "Of course not..."

"So, while you're pregnant and resting now, learn French well. That's it." Henry took a sip of water from the glass on the coffee table after he spoke.

Yvonne walked towards him. "Henry, can you ask Mr. Woods to get a teacher with a better temper?"

"What's the reason?" Henry uttered the words lightly.

Yvonne lowered her head in embarrassment." Because I'm afraid of being scolded. I tend to get nervous when I'm scolded and when I’m nervous, I can’t learn anything."

"Is that why you took the entrance exam to such an unfavorable university?" Henry raised his eyebrows.

Yvonne hummed, "Well, a part of it was because my grades were average."

"I see." Henry nodded.

Yvonne secretly looked at him. "Does that mean you agree?"

"How can I not agree? I'm afraid the bad-tempered teacher will be taken away by your stupidity," Henry said sarcastically.

Yvonne pouted unhappily, "I'm not stupid. Although I’m not very smart, I'm not stupid either." 1

At least she got into the university all by herself.

When Henry heard that she was refuting, he couldn't help but sneer. "From what I see, you are stupid. After learning about etiquette for so many days, you haven’t even got a good posture. Isn’t that stupid?"

"I..." Yvonne was choked by his words and went speechless for a while, i

He was right. She had been learning for almost ten days, but her progress was really slow.

Perhaps she really was stupid. 1

"Okay, I'll go upstairs for a meeting." Henry put down his glass and walked up the stairs.

Yvonne conquered the inferiority in her heart and stood up. "Henry, wait."

"Is there anything else you need?" Henry turned to look at her.

Yvonne shook her hands. "When are you going to tell Grandpa about my pregnancy?"

"I will bring you back to the main estate on the weekend and let him know then. If we break the news to him now, he will definitely rush over. He's getting old, so it will be troublesome for him to travel around," Henry replied.

Yvonne nodded, indicating that she understood. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Seeing that she had no further questions, Henry turned his back and went upstairs.

Sue came out from the laundry room with a basin and saw Yvonne sitting in the living room alone. She couldn't help but ask, "Madam, is sir back already? I thought I heard sir's voice just now."

Yvonne pointed upstairs. "He’s back and he went upstairs.”

"So he really came back. I thought I heard it wrong." Sue smiled.

Yvonne asked suspiciously, "Sue, why are you looking

for Henry?"

"It's no big deal. I just wanted to ask for a leave of absence from sir and arrange for someone else to take care of you," Sue replied.

Yvonne was shocked. "A leave of absence?"

"Yes, I received a call from my son this morning. My daughter-in-law is pregnant too so I have to go back to take care of her for a few days." Sue looked at Yvonne apologetically.

Yvonne smiled. "So you're going to be a grandma again, Sue. That’s good news!"

"It is good, but madam, you.."

"I'm fine." Yvonne posed proudly. "I can take care of myself. I don't need to go to work anyway."

"You can't say that. You're pregnant now and you need someone to take care of you. I will talk to sir and be back soon," Sue said. She put down the basin in her arms and went upstairs to look for Henry.

Yvonne couldn't stop her in time, so she let Sue go.

After a while, Sue walked down the stairs while holding the railing. She made an OK gesture to Yvonne. "Madam, sir has agreed to arrange someone else to take care of you tomorrow. I will be back by this weekend."

"I got it," Yvonne hummed in response.

Sue came over and picked up her basin. "Madam, I'll carry on with my work now." "Alright."

After Sue left, Yvonne didn’t feel good being in the living room alone. Nothing interesting was on TV. After switching to several channels, she still couldn't find the show that she liked. She sighed in dismay, turned off the TV, and went to her bedroom upstairs.

She fell asleep until late evening. Henry came in and asked her to eat.

She sat up groggily from the bed with a dazed expression, as if she hadn’t woken up yet.

"Henry, how can it be you?" Yvonne asked with a hoarse voice while rubbing her eyes.

Henry stood by the bed, looking at her condescendingly. "If it’s not me, who do you think it could be?"

"Sue, of course.” Yvonne patted her cheeks, trying to wake herself up. "Sue is always the one who wakes m e up."

"Sue is still busy in the kitchen. Let's go down."

"Okay."

Yvonne yawned and lifted her quilt to get out of bed.

As soon as her feet touched the soft carpet, she suddenly fell.

Henry's eyes condensed and he quickly withdrew his hands from his pockets, and hugged Yvonne's waist to prevent her from falling to the ground.

Yvonne lay safely in Henry's arms. Her face was pale and she was so terrified.

Luckily, Henry managed to catch her in time.

Otherwise, she would've definitely knocked her stomach.

By that time...

Yvonne shuddered and she didn't dare to think about what would happen.

She took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in her heart, and smiled gratefully at Henry. "Henry, thank you."

Henry let go of her with an angry face. "Yvonne, are you blind?”

"No, I’m not," Yvonne replied subconsciously.

Henry clenched his fists. "If you're not, how would you have handled it? Do you know what will happen if I'm not here?"

"I know..." Yvonne lowered her head. "When I got out o f the bed just now, my legs didn’t have any strength. I got a cramp and it wasn't on purpose..."

"Didn't have any strength?" Henry frowned.

Yvonne nodded. "There are times where I feel dizzy and weak as well."

"Have you ever felt this way before?" Henry asked with a deep voice.

Yvonne pursed her lower lip. "No, this started only two months ago."

"The first two months?" Henry was taken aback. Then, he recalled his memory and his eyes were flushed with guilt. "Do you have strength now?" His voice suddenly became much softer with a hint of concern, i

Yvonne's face turned slightly red. "It's coming back a little."

"Let's go then." Henry took her hand and walked out of the room together.

Sue was shocked for a moment when she saw them come down together hand in hand. She couldn't believe her eyes. After confirming that what she saw was real, she laughed, "Sir, madam, you're both here."

"Sue, you may serve the meal," Henry ordered.

Sue answered, "Sure, let me get it ready."

She happily went into the kitchen and served the dishes.

Yvonne felt shy, but happy at the same time when she looked at her hand that was holding Henry's. "Henry, that..."

Before she was able to complete her sentence, the phone in Henry's pocket rang, interrupting her.
