Chapter 88 Master Lancaster’s Scheme


    Henry noticed it too and subconsciously took a step forward to hide Yvonne behind him. "Grandpa,


    why have youe?"


    "I’m here to see if my grandson’s limbs are still intact!" Master Lancaster replied icily after taking a


    sip from the teacup.


    Henry pressed his lips together. "Grandpa, what do you mean?"


    m! The old man ced the teacup on the table harshly. "What do I mean? Why didn’t you tell me


    about your ident on the snow-covered mountain?"


    Henry widened his eyes. "You found out?"


    "Humph, if I didn''t ask, were you nning to hide it from me this whole life?" Grandpa Lancaster


    sneered.


    Yvonne gripped her hands together tightly with her heart thumping wildly. Her fear was consuming


    her alive.


    Grandpa found out about the ident on the mountain. Would he hate her as his daughter-inw?


    Would hee here this time to have her divorce with Henry?


    The more she thought of it, the more afraid she became. Yvonne’s legs gave up on her and she


    plopped down on the floor.


    It caused both the old man and Henry to look at her.


    Henry felt his forehead throbbing. "Yvonne Frey, what are you doing?"


    How could this woman be so embarrassing in front of Grandpa?


    "I..." Yvonne''s pale lips were trembling as she found it hard to speak. She knew that she was


    misbehaving right now and she wanted to stand right up as well but she did not have the strength


    to.


    "Sue!" Master Lancaster called for the helper. "Come help Yvonne up."


    "Sure." Sue bent down to help the girl.


    After Yvonne stood up, she bowed to the old man. " Sorry, Grandpa. The ident’s my fault..."


    "Oh? Your fault?” The old man looked at her frigidly.


    Unable to take the pressure, Yvonne cried. "Yes. I lost my footing and fell. Henry fell down with me


    and got injured while saving me. Sorry, Grandpa..."


    "Hmph, do you know that I almost lost this grandson again because of you!" The old man stabbed


    his walking stick furiously.


    Yvonne hung her head low in shame.


    For some reason, Henry felt a pinch on his heart when he saw it. "Grandpa, it''s fine. It''s over. I''m


    fine now." "What is it? You feel sorry for her?" The old man narrowed his eyes.


    Henry''s gaze flickered. "No." "If that''s the case, stand aside!" Zachary ordered.


    Henry remained rooted in his spot. "Grandpa, who told you that I got into an ident on the


    mountain?"


    He had asked Joe not to tell the old man about this, but thetter still found out. Henry could not


    help pondering.


    "It’s not important who told me about it. What matters is that you were nearly killed up there!” Master


    Lancaster bellowed.


    He had arranged men to go to the snow-covered mountain together with the intention to discreetly


    set up the two youngsters together so they could give him a baby sooner. He did not expect the


    husband and wife to stay separately, foiling his ns, so Zachary Lancaster asked for his people to


    keep an eye on them instead.


    To his horror, both of them got into an ident on the mountain!


    "Grandpa, I said that I''m alright." Henry palmed his forehead.


    "Hmph, you got lucky this time and hurt only your back. You''ll lose your life if you get unlucky. Do


    you know that I only have you as my grandson before we find your younger brother!" Master


    Lancaster’s eyes were rimmed red.


    Henry looked down without saying more. Master Lancaster ignored him and turned to Yvonne.


    "Come over."


    Yvonne walked over with small steps.


    "Are you okay?" the old man asked with an emotionless face.


    Yvonne waved her hands, surprised at the concern." Yes, I''m fine."


    "Of course you’re fine. Henry protected you." The old man stared at her.


    Yvonne lowered her head silently.


    Looking at the young spouses who were silent from his reprimanding, Zachary heaved a deep sigh.


    "I''m not here to scold the two of you specifically, but you aren''t right in the matter. Do you know how


    worried I was when I heard that you two were involved in an ident?"


    "Yes, sir, madam. Master nearly got admitted into the hospital.” Frederick, who had been standing


    behind Master Lancaster, could not help replying.


    Henry felt a pang in his heart. "Are you okay, Grandpa?"


    "I''m fine, but I can’t guarantee that if there’s a next time." The old man rolled his eyes.


    Henry casted his gaze down. "Sorry, Grandpa..." "Ah, you never stop worrying once you have


    children and grandchildren... but Yvonne''s done pretty well this time." Master Lancaster looked at


    Yvonne.


    The girl pointed at herself, looking bewildered. "But 1 didn''t do anything?"


    Master Lancaster suddenly cracked a smile that wasced withfort. "You didn''t abandon Henry


    in the snow. You already did wonderfully."


    "Huh?" Yvonne tilted her head. "How could I abandon him? He’s my husband. Of course I''m leaving


    with him."


    Zachary''s smile grew wider. "That’s why I say you did wonderful. Unlike some people, they burn the


    bridge they cross!"


    His smile ceased a little at that as his eyes brimmed with hatred.


    Henry frowned. "Grandpa, stop mentioning the past!"


    "Why? Embarrassed when I talk about it?" The old man red at him furiously.


    Henry spoke faintly, "No. I just think that we should let bygones be bygones. No need to revisit it."


    "Hmph, you’re open-minded, aren''t you? But I can''t leave it. I almost lost my grandson. How could I


    not be filled with resentment? I won’t forget it my entire life and I''ll keep mentioning it so you know


    how bad your judgment of people is!" Zachary said with a glower.


    Yvonne was perplexed but she did not ask. She knew that Grandpa was being vague because he


    did not


    want her to know.


    "Alright, I don''t mean anything by dropping by today, just want you all to know that I''m utterly upset


    after knowing about the ident. I’m not hounding you over it but I don''t wish to see a repeat of it


    either, do you both hear me?" Master Lancaster''s stern gaze swept back and forth between the


    youngsters.


    "Yes." Henry nodded.


    Yvonne followed. "Yes, Grandpa."


    "Mm. Wash up for dinner. I asked Sue to make your favorites," Zachary told them with a much


    gentler expression.


    Henry went upstairs to change while Yvonne went to the bathroom in the living room to wash her


    hands.


    When both of them left, Zachary called Sue to him and told her furtively, "Sue, put this in their te


    later."


    "Master, what''s this?" Sue felt her heart jump looking a t the small vial in her hands. It was not


    poison, was it?Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    Guessing what Sue was thinking, old man red at her. "What are you thinking? It’s just a drug for


    them t o get a baby sooner."


    "Isn''t - isn’t that an aphrodisiac?" Sue covered her mouth in shock.


    Master Lancaster looked up nonchntly. "Drop it on themter." "But...


    "What?"


    In a dilemma, Sue smiled, "This isn’t too nice."


    Zachary snorted. "What’s not nice? It won’t kill them. They''re the ones who won''t make a baby. I can


    only resort to this."


    "That’s true but sir will be infuriated when he finds out." Sue looked worried.


    The old man pursed his lips indifferently. "Then tell him that it''s my instruction. Alright, just do it."


    "Okay, I understand.” Sue sighed and went back to the kitchen.


    When Yvonne came out from the bathroom, she saw Master Lancaster watching television. It was a


    musical and he was humming to it.


    "Grandpa, you seem to be in a good mood now. Is there any good news?" she asked curiously.
