Chapter 717 See You Then
"Yes," the doctor answered, then opened the first-aid box to look for medicine and gave Mandy an infusion.
Yvonne stood aside and watched.
Sue came to her and said, "Madam, why don't you go back to your room and rest?"
Yvonne shook her head and refused. "Don't worry, just a moment."
She was so determined that Sue stopped persuading her and stood quietly with her.
After standing for a few minutes, the doctor injected the infusion needle into Mandy. "It's done, madam. She should be fine after this drip is finished."
Yvonne ordered, "Okay, thank you. Sue, please send the doctor out."
Sue nodded her head, made a gesture of invitation to the doctor, and sent him out of the room.
Yvonne stood beside the bed and looked down at Mandy. She couldn't figure out why this woman would want to be a mistress even though she had everything including looks and education with her considerably wealthy family background.
Did she really love Henry so much?
Yvonne shook her head, expressing her disbelief.
If Henry was an old and ugly man, she believed that Mandy would never fall in love with him.
But it didn’t matter. Yvonne wouldn't let any woman take her man away.
If Henry was snatched away in the end, it only showed that Henry wasn't worth it.
And she wouldn't cling to this man nor would she make a fuss out of it. After all, she was no longer the person who would live and die for love.
Thinking of this, Yvonne whispered, "Henry, I hope you won’t let me down. Otherwise, I won't let you go easily.” Then she turned around and went out. 1
She was pregnant now. After standing for a long time, she was suffering from a backache. It would be better for her to go back to her room to rest.
Yvonne went back to her room. Not long after that, Henry and Elliot came back.
Elliot was very angry that he almost wanted to chase Mandy out when he heard Sue talk about the incident of Mandy visiting Yvonne in the afternoon, and she didn't want to leave even when Yvonne refused to see her.
It wasn't until Sue said that Mandy had a high fever and was still undergoing an infusion.
In the room, Henry took off his coat and looked at the woman sitting while reading on the bed. "Why did you decide to treat her at home instead of going to the
hospital?"
Yvonne flipped a page of the book. "She has a high fever of 39 degrees Celsius. What if there's a traffic jam on the way to the hospital and she gets a seizure? Wouldn't that be our responsibility then?"
Henry pursed his lips. "Then do according to what Hayden said earlier. Once she's awake, we'll chase her out immediately."
Yvonne looked up at him and said with a smile, "Of course. Do you want to keep her at home to celebrate the new year together if you don't chase her away?"
Henry pulled the tie off his neck and said, "I'm going t o shower."
"Okay." Yvonne nodded.
Henry went to the bathroom.
However, when he came out of the bathroom to check on the woman on the bed, she was asleep while leaning against the bed.
Henry frowned as he walked over.
How could this woman not lie down even when she was sleeping?
Henry looked at the book that Yvonne held in her hand and reached out for it.
Yvonne seemed to feel his action. She opened her eyes with a muffled snort, "You're done?"
Henry hummed, “Go to sleep. I'll help you lie down."
"Okay." Yvonne nodded then closed her eyes again.
As the time of pregnancy passed day by day, she was getting more and more lethargic and not as energetic. She fell asleep after a short while.
Henry helped Yvonne lay down. He covered her with a quilt gently, put the book on the bedside, and then went to blow dry his hair.
After drying his hair, he opened the quilt and went to bed with her in his arms.
The next morning, Sue came to knock on the door and said breakfast was ready.
Henry carried Yvonne from the bed and brought her to the bathroom to wash up.
When she walked out of the room after getting dressed, she met Elliot who happened to come out of his room.
"Hey, Yvonne. Good morning." Elliot looked at Yvonne and waved at her.
He pretended not to see Henry.
Yvonne replied with a smile, "Good morning."
Elliot walked beside her and asked, "Why did you get u p so early today?"
Normally, she would still be asleep at this time.
Yvonne smiled and replied, "I'm a little hungry, so it’s time to get up."
Elliot nodded and said mockingly, "Right. You're pregnant now, so you can’t be hungry.”
Henry looked at the two of them talking happily beside him. His handsome face was gloomy.
These two thought he didn’t exist, right?
Feeling the cold air from the man next to her, Yvonne realized something. She turned her head and looked a t the man’s unhappy face. She knew that he was jealous.
Yvonne couldn't help feeling funny.
How could this man be jealous of his younger brother?
Yvonne took Henry's arm to comfort him. "Alright, don’t be angry anymore.”
Henry lowered his head and looked at her hand. His expression suddenly turned better, from moody to happy. Then he looked at Elliot provocatively.
His gaze clearly told Elliot that Henry had a wife, but h e didn't.
Elliot was very angry that his face became stiff. Then h e walked past both of them.
Yvonne saw the fight between the two men and shook her head amusedly.
These two were so shrewd, but sometimes the things they did were so childish and funny.
Breakfast was ready when they came to the dining
room.
Sue brought Theo over and he sat on the booster seat, waiting for food.
When he saw the three of them come in, his eyes brightened and he called softly, "Good morning, Daddy, Mommy, and Uncle Hayden."
Yvonne went over and bent down to kiss Theo. "Good morning, baby."
Although Henry didn't do so, he rubbed the little guy's head.
Elliot replied, "Good morning, Theo."
Theo hummed and nodded.
Henry pulled the chair right next to Theo for Yvonne.
After Yvonne sat down, Henry pulled the chair beside her and sat down.
The family of three sat on one side, while Elliot sat alone on the opposite side. Sue couldn't help laughing looking at this contrast.
Elliot knew what Sue was laughing at. He looked at her bitterly. "Sue, is it funny?"
Sue waved her hands and said, "Young Mr. Lancaster, I won't laugh if you bring a girlfriend home."
Upon listening to this, Yvonne laughed.
Even Henry twitched the corner of his mouth.
Theo was the only one who didn't understand the meaning of a girlfriend. He looked at Elliot, then at his parents. He didn't say anything. He lowered his head and continued to eat.
Elliot rubbed his forehead. "It’s not easy to get a girlfriend. Take it slow, take it slow."
"Take it slow again?" Henry squinted his eyes. "You’re turning thirty-two this year. How much longer do you need?" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Elliot waved his hand casually. "It’s still a long way to reach fifty years old. Anyway, I’ll get married before I hit fifty."
Henry snorted coldly without speaking.
The family began to enjoy their breakfast.
Just then, a servant suddenly came in. "Sir, madam, Miss Lovett is awake."
Hearing this, Yvonne put down her cutlery and looked up at Henry.
Henry frowned tightly. "Let her leave since she's awake."
The servant said helplessly, "Sir, I've told that young lady, but she doesn't want to leave and claims that she wants to see you."
Elliot snorted, "Can’t you get the security guard to chase her out?"
Henry thought this method was feasible. He nodded slightly and was about to give the order.
Yvonne suddenly held his hand. "Wait, Henry. Let her i n."
Elliot and Henry looked at her together. "What?"
They didn't understand why she wanted to see Mandy.
