Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 158 Extorting Bone Marrow

How did Jason get kidnapped?

Wasn't he working at the headquarters of the Lancaster Group?

Could it be that he was kidnapped by the people from the casino because he hadn't paid off his debts from gambling last time?

In just a few seconds, many questions flashed through Yvonne’s mind.

Nevertheless, she had no time to figure them out. Her top priority now was to rescue her brother.

Given how much her parents were fond of Jason, they would surely lose their mind if anything happened to him!

"What should I do?!" Yvonne gripped her phone tightly as she flew into a panic.

The person on the phone warned her not to involve the cops, or he would kill Jason. She wasn't going to gamble on Jason's life, so calling the cops was definitely out of question.

If she told Henry about it, would he lend her a hand?

Yvonne was a little uncertain. After all, Henry never had a good impression of the Freys so he might not necessarily help her rescue Jason. Hence, she only had herself to rely on to solve this matter herself. 2

Thinking of this, Yvonne hurried upstairs to change clothes before quickly going out with her bank card in hand.

She walked very quickly out of the villa and was about to hail a cab when two sneaky figures suddenly sprung out from the bushes behind her.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

One of them restrained Yvonne with lightning speed and covered her mouth to muffle her shout.

Under Yvonne's terrified gaze, the other man took out a spray bottle and sprayed a few times in her face.

An unpleasant smell assaulted her nostrils. Her eyelids began to grow very heavy and soon after that, she lost her consciousness.

The person who sprayed Yvonne lifted her eyelid.

After confirming that she had really fainted, he said to the other person who was holding her, "She passed out."

When the other man heard that, he lifted Yvonne up in his arms. "I'll bring her to the car. Call the employer and tell him we've captured the target. Ask him to send payment to us quickly.”

"Don't worry, I know what to do.”

After their discussion, the two went off to carry out their respective tasks.

Yvonne was totally oblivious to everything that was happening around her.

By the time she woke up, she found herself lying on something, blindfolded and tied up. She couldn't budge even an inch and her mouth was taped too.

She had no idea where she was now and who her kidnappers were. She was both terrified and panicking. The ticking noise of the machinery around her sent her anxiety through the roof.

"Hey, she's awake,” someone suddenly spoke up.

It was only then that Yvonne realized that she wasn’t alone. She wanted to ask why she was tied up here, but couldn't even make any sound with her mouth taped.

"That was quite fast," the other person replied.

"Where's the boss?"

"Boss is outside. Watch over her first. I'll go get the boss and Mr. Lancaster."

Mr. Lancaster?

Yvonne was very sensitive to that name.

It bothered her because Henry's last name was Lancaster too.

Creak!

She heard the door opening, followed by a few sets of footsteps coming toward her from a distance. The footsteps were very loud, and each of them crushed her fearful heart.

"How long has she been awake?" a deep and cold voice suddenly asked.

Yvonne's body immediately froze when she heard the voice.

So the Mr. Lancaster that the man mentioned just now was really Henry?

If it was really him, then why did he tie her up? And who was the boss they were referring to?

Many questions popped into Yvonne's mind, leaving her feeling both confused and uneasy. She writhed twice in an attempt to attract Henry's attention.

However, no one paid any attention to her no matter how much she struggled.

The person who was the first to notice that Yvonne was awake replied, "She just woke up, can we begin now?"

"Okay, Jackie’s surgery can’t be delayed any longer. Just get both surgeries done right away," Henry instructed coldly.

Yvonne was stunned. There was a buzz before something exploded in her mind. 1

Surgery?

Did Henry just ask for Jacqueline and her to be operated on?

So they tied her up here for this?

"Alright. But Mr. Lancaster, she's pregnant. We won't b e able to guarantee the child's safety throughout the surgery."

Henry hummed heavily, "It’s just a devil’s spawn. It doesn't matter. Hurry up and start. We’ll be leaving now." 1

"MMMFF...!" Yvonne struggled violently as soon as she heard that he was about to leave. Her delicate face was flushed red and the blue veins on her neck bulged. It wasn't hard to tell how upset she was at this moment. 1

A devil's spawn?

Did he actually just call the child in her womb that?

How could he do something like that? This was his child too! Was he really going to kill their child for Jacqueline? He promised that they would keep this child! Why did he go back on his words now?

Yvonne was both furious and afraid.

She was furious at Henry’s sudden betrayal and afraid that both of them would really take her child away.

She kept struggling, even if she couldn't make any sound. There was no way she would let them succeed.

Unfortunately, she was all alone. How could she possibly fight so many people?

Yvonne was pinned down and forced to stay still by two people on both sides.

She could neither move nor make any noise. In her despair, she was at their mercy.

Yvonne felt her sleeve being rolled up before something was tied around her arm. The next thing she felt was the pain of being pricked by a needle. A cold liquid coursed through her vein before it spread all over her body. Once again, she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she was hurting very badly all over her body. She couldn't even move her fingers.

Even so, the pain couldn't compare to the pain in her womb and the pain in her heart.

She knew that her child was gone!

Her precious child was gone! 2

This was all brought to her by Henry! He had killed his child with his very own hands! 1

Yvonne endured the severe pain and clenched her fists. For the very first time, her tearful eyes burned with hatred toward Henry.

She hated him for his cruelty and untrustworthiness. More than that, she hated herself for her naivety. Why did she believe him so easily?!

Why did she believe that the child would be more important than Jacqueline in his heart?!

How did he bring himself to do that to his own flesh and blood!

"HENRY LANCASTER, I DESPISE YOU!" Yvonne cried

bitterly.

Her agonized cry caught the attention of the people outside and soon, someone came in to check on the situation.

Seeing how upset she was, the person quickly took out his phone to make a call.

After making the call, the person pushed Yvonne into a room. Her blindfold and the tape on her mouth were then removed.

Yvonne's eyes couldn't stand the piercing light that suddenly flooded into her sight after being in the dark for so long. She had to shut her eyes and slowly open them again once they had readjusted.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she quickly took a look at her surroundings. The room appeared to be similar to a ward.

She had no idea which hospital ward it was, so she didn’t dwell too much on it. Instead, she fixed her gaze on the face of the person who just pushed her into the room, looking as though she wanted to deeply ingrain his face in her memory.

Yvonne’s hateful gaze sent chills down the man's spine. He pursed his lips in discomfort, "Don't look at me like that. I know you’re upset, but I’m just taking orders from someone. If you want to blame someone, then blame it on our boss." 1

"Your boss...who is he?" Yvonne stopped her tears and asked coldly.
