Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 163 I’m Leaving Him

Shane pressed Yvonne's wound lightly. "What do you regret?"

"Of course for not listening to your advice on leaving Henry. I didn't take your words seriously at that time, but now that I think of it, I really do regret it," Yvonne choked while burying her head into the pillow.

Shane's eyes were filled with distress. "So are you gonna leave him now?"

Yvonne's body trembled while she cried. "Yes, I want t o leave him. I don’t know how I should face him in the future. There’s no way I can forgive him. I still don't understand why he can be so soft- hearted towards Jacqueline, but so hard on me and our child. Is it just because we can't get his love?"

Shane wanted to comfort her, but he didn’t know how t o. He could only persuade her not to cry, "Don't cry anymore. It’s not good for your recovery when you keep crying." 1

Yvonne sniffed. "I don't want to cry, but I can't help it whenever I think of my poor child. Tell me. What if I listened to you at that time? Would I have been able to keep my child then?"

"This.Jt's hard to tell," Shane replied thoughtfully.

This incident was all done by the Conrad family and not Henry.

Henry was only taking the blame for both Mr. Conrad and Jacqueline, but Yvonne didn’t know about this. She thought Henry was the one who did this. 1

So even if she listened to Shane's advice and left Henry, the Conrads would not let her go. They’d still kidnap her and force the bone marrow out of her.

After hearing what Shane said, Yvonne was startled and quickly reacted with a sad smile, "That’s right. We can’t tell for sure. Since Henry cares for Jacqueline so much, he will still find me even if I leave and ask to donate my bone marrow to her. I am really delusional."

"Actually, Henry didn't cause this incident..." Shane hesitated, but he decided to tell Yvonne the truth.

However, Yvonne couldn't hear what Shane had to say. She covered her ears and sneered, "Who else could it be if it's not him? That was his voice. He did it with a man called "Boss." I'm his wife and I was carrying his baby. How could he be so cruel?"

What she minded the most was that Henry once called the child a devil's spawn.

It was ironic that the child in her belly was a devil's spawn to him.

Since he didn't want this child in the first place, why did he promise to give a child to her? She really hated how Henry gave her hope and crushed it afterward.

Yvonne held her handkerchief tightly with her eyes full of self-deprecation when she thought of this."

Initially, I thought that it was fine even if I couldn’t make him love me. As long as I stayed by his side, he would eventually notice my presence. But I realized that I was wrong. Some people are cold-hearted by nature. His heart is made of stone and he can never feel the warmth.”

What was funny was that she only understood the simple principle now.

It showed how naive and stupid she was.

Shane was a little confused seeing Yvonne's look." What do you plan to do next? You said that you want t o leave Henry. Have you made up your mind?"

"Yes, I've made up my mind. Both of us are from two completely different worlds and I shouldn't have come into his world. I was too stupid and kept convincing myself that I could stand by his side as long as I worked hard to be a fine lady. Now I know how outrageous I was," Yvonne said with a sorrowful smile. Once again, the tears slid down the corner of her eyes.

Shane didn't put much thought into Yvonne's words. H e pulled out a tissue and wiped her tears away. "No, you're not wrong. Everyone has their right to choose their happiness. For you, Henry is your happiness and this is why you chose him, but that's not your fault.”

"But it seems like it’s my fault now. I overestimated myself and I shouldn't have dreamed about things that do not belong to me at all. However, I'm wide awake now. I will leave Henry and go back to where I belong. From now on, he has nothing to do with me anymore," Yvonne said firmly.

Shane was shocked by her determination.

He saw how much Yvonne cared about Henry in the past two months.

He was even envious at how Henry was getting wholehearted love from a woman.

And now she decided to leave Henry. It seemed that Henry really hurt her a lot this time.

"Since you’ve decided, I will definitely support you. But what are you planning to do with Master

Lancaster?" Shane looked at Yvonne and asked.

Yvonne’s eyes were a little sad. "I will talk to Grandpa about that."

"Well then, when do you plan to divorce Henry?” Shane asked again. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Yvonne touched her lower abdomen through the quilt. "I can't go anywhere in my current condition. I will talk to him when I'm able to get out of bed. But before that, can you keep it a secret for me?"

"Alright," Shane agreed promptly.

Yvonne smiled weakly at him, "Thank you."

"You don’t have to thank me. I do hope that you will leave Henry too. After all, he... Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Have a good rest and I will see you later." Shane gently pulled her quilt up to keep her

warm and left the ward.

Yvonne did not rest after Shane left. Instead, she picked herself up to grab the phone beside the bed and made a call.

The call was quickly connected and Jason's impatient voice could be heard from the phone, "Yvonne, why are you calling me? I'm working now."

"Let me ask you something. Were you kidnapped yesterday?" Yvonne asked impassively.

Jason was stunned. "Kidnapped? Yvonne, are you alright? You were the one who was kidnapped!”

"I got it." Yvonne hung up.

She wasn't surprised by Jason's answer because she already had the answer in her heart.

The call that she picked up yesterday at the villa to ask her to rescue Jason was a trap. They just wanted t o trick her out of the villa because that was when she could be kidnapped.

It was silly to even think about how eager she was to save people at that time. She stupidly fell into the trap and didn't even think of calling Jason to check if it was true.

"Henry, oh Henry. You even used my brother just so you could kidnap me. You’re too despicable!" Yvonne grasped the phone tightly as if she wanted to crush it.

Outside the ward, Henry gently closed the door and whispered, "Stupid woman. I would have taken you to the hospital for surgery if I really wanted your bone marrow. Did I have to come up with all these plans?"

He wanted to enter the ward to visit Yvonne when he saw Shane come out earlier. But once the door cracked open, he heard what she said and he didn’t have the courage to go in again.

He'd be cast out even if he walked into the ward.

It was better to leave her alone. Perhaps she didn’t want to see him yet.

"Why didn’t you go in?" Shane asked playfully when Henry took a step back.

Henry glared at him, "Are you free now?"

"You can say that. It was supposed to be my off day, but you called me and now I have to work overtime," Shane said lazily while putting his hands in his white coat.

Henry sneered, "Since it's your day off, you can go back."

"No way, I have to do a body check up on Yvonne in two hours. She had a miscarriage and her bone marrow taken. These few days are the critical period. S o, Henry. I suggest you get her a psychiatrist." Shane’s expression turned serious.

Henry pursed his lips, "A psychiatrist?"
