Chapter 45 Get The Surgery Done Right Away
Yvonne had yet to recover from the turn of events. She was puzzled by Henry’s sudden question.
"What do you mean by why?"
Henry snorted coldly. He went up to her and grabbed her hand, "Who allowed you to wear this
ne? You must be satisfied now that Jackie is being sent to the emergency room."
"What do you mean by saying that I must be satisfied?" Yvonne''s eyes bulged out in anger,
triggered by his words.
The way he put it made it seem like he was saying that Yvonne was hoping for something bad to
happen t o Jacqueline. 1
"Yvonne Frey, didn’t I tell you to not reveal anything about our rtionship to Jackie before you
meet her?" Henry flung Yvonne''s hand away.
Yvonne took a step back. She hit her back against the wall and groaned in pain. "You did say that,
but I didn''t tell her anything."
"Then what about the ne? Who told you toe out wearing that?" Henry pressed his thin
lips into a straight line. 2
Yvonne was taken aback by his remarks. It took her a long time to finally find her voice again. "Are
you ming me? Just because Miss Conrad saw me
wearing this ne, you med me for causing her to faint?”
Henry took a deep breath and didn''t reply to her. But his answer was as clear as day.
He was indeed ming her!
Yvonne finally burst out crying, "Why do you have to me me? You didn''t even tell me that this
ne was originally a gift to Miss Conrad when you gave it t o me! You didn''t mention anything
to me either after I wore it for so many days. Don’t you think you are being very unfair for ming
me now that Miss Conrad found out about it?"
Sobs wracked her shoulders as tears came streaming down, ruining her makeup. Her smudged
eyeliner formed dark circles under her eyes, making her look pitiful but also funny at the same time.
"Alright, stop crying!” Henry pinched the bridge of his nose and gave her a look of disgust.
Her cries were not only noisy but also tugged at his heartstrings for some reason.
He was extremely irritated by these emotions that were beyond his control!
Yvonne sniffed and slowly stopped crying. "I''m giving this back to you!"
She shoved the ne back into his hand.
"Yvonne Frey, what do you mean by that?" Henry looked at the broken ne as his eyes turned
dark.
Yvonne lifted her arm and wiped her tears on the sleeve. "I’m telling you that I don''t want this
ne anymore. I''m returning it to its rightful owner!"
"Returning it to its rightful owner?" Henry frowned at her. 1
Yvonne hummed softly, her voice still cracking from crying earlier. "Isn’t this a gift that you''ve
prepared for Miss Conrad? How could you give that to me? You should return it to her."
"No need!" Henry returned the ne to Yvonne without any emotion on his face. "You can keep
it. Jackie won''t ept things that someone else has worn."
"But I don''t want to keep it either!" Yvonne lowered her head depressingly. "You said it just now that
Miss Conrad wouldn’t ept things that someone else has worn. It''s the same for me too!"
Yvonne didn''t understand why Henry gave her this ne.
She felt the same amount of emotions right nowpared to the time when she received the
ne, except this time it was disappointment instead of joy.
"If you don''t want to keep it, then just throw it away!" Henry spat when he saw Yvonne''s refusal
toward the ne.
Yvonne’s hand trembled with the ne in her clutch. "Throw?"
"I thought you didn''t want it anymore? So why keep it around? Just throw it out.” Henry adjusted his
cuffs and replied indifferently.
"But..." Yvonne hesitated.

She really didn''t want it anymore.
Yet, she couldn''t bring herself to throw it away either.
Not especially when she knew the value of this ne. She couldn''t afford to throw it away and
neither did she have the guts to do it either!
"But what?" Henry lifted his gaze at her.
Yvonne shook her head. "Nevermind. I''ll bring this ne back and put it in the jewelry disy
case. If Miss Conrad asks for it again, you can just take it back to her."
"Whatever!" Henry stared at her for several seconds, then lifted his feet and walked toward the
door.
"Hold on!" Yvonne shouted to him.
Henry stopped, "What else do you need?"
"I have a question," Yvonne sped her hands nervously.
"What is it?"
"It''s about you and Miss Conrad," Yvonne took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to
speak. "Henry, are you nning to get back together with Miss Conrad?" 1
Henry''s pupils instantly constricted as he turned his head around angrily. "Yvonne Frey, do you have
any idea what you’re asking?"
"I do," Yvonne bit her lower lip. "This question has been on my mind for a long time. I''ve been
meaning to ask you since the moment I knew that you and Miss Conrad used to date. Henry, tell
me. Are you two..."
"Who told you that?" Henry interrupted her with a sullen face.
Yvonne blinked nkly at him, "What?"
"I''m asking you, who told you that Jackie and I used to date?" Henry repeated his question. The
cold aura around him made it feel like there was an air conditioner blowing in the room.
"It was Sue..."
"What else did she tell you?"
"Nothing else. Sue only told me that you two used to date. Other than that, her lips are sealed,"
Yvonne answered truthfully.
Henry looked a little better after that, but he still acted coldly. "Yvonne Frey, I hope you don''t go
around probing into my past again, do you understand?"
Yvonne nodded at the warning tone in his words."... Fine. But I do want to know if you and Miss
Conrad are really nning on..." "There’s nothing like that!" Henry replied with a scowl.
A surprised smile appeared on Yvonne’s face, "Really? You really don''t have that thought?”
Henry looked at her innocent eyes that were filled with only expectations and nothing else. His heart
suddenly softened. He even thought that she was a little cute.
He must be crazy to be thinking that way!
How could this mediocre and average-looking woman be cute?
Not only that, but she also looked like a dirty stray cat with that messy face of hers.
Henry shook his head and suppressed the weird thoughts. Just when he was about to say
something else, Shane returned.
"So you guys are really still here!"
Henry was interrupted by Shane''s sudden appearance.
Although Yvonne was a little disappointed in not getting another confirmation from Henry, she was
still very much satisfied already.
At least she clearly heard what he said earlier.
"Why are you here?" Henry shot a disgusted look at Yvonne who was grinning like a fool, then
turned his gaze to Shane. "Is Jackie alright?" he asked with a serious face.
"Her condition has stabilized for now, but..." Shane suddenly grew hesitant.
Henry urged him impatiently, "Hurry up and spill it. But what?"
“Okay, fine." Shane pushed his sses up, " Jacqueline''s condition has indeed stabilized, but her
white blood cells count is getting out of hand. What I''m saying is, we need to get the surgery done
right away. I hope you two are okay with this."
Shane said ''You two,’ but his eyes were on Yvonne.
Yvonne''s expression slowly froze. "Now?"
"Yes," Shane nodded.
Yvonne pursed her lips, then forced a smile. "I''m fine with that..."
"Then let''s get it done right away!" Henry made the final decision.
"Got it. I''ll go make the necessary preparations for the surgery now. Please go back to your ward
first and put on the surgical gown, sis-inw," Shane instructed.
Yvonne acknowledged with a faint hum.
After Shane left, Henry looked at her from the side. "I''ll apany you upstairs." 1
"No need." Yvonne waved her hand and refused, "You should go wait for Miss Conrad outside her
operating room. I know you can’t stop worrying about her. In fact, you were going there had I not
dyed you. So go now, I''ll return to the ward by myself."
After saying that, Yvonne walked past him with her head hung low.
She had only taken two steps when Henry suddenly grabbed her hand.
