Chapter 91 It Was Old Lancaster


    Arriving at the door, it took her a few effortful breaths before Yvonne could knock on it.


    It opened swiftly to reveal an arm that grasped Yvonne’s wrist and yanked her inside.


    With a m, the door was closed forcefully.


    Henry pinned Yvonne against the door and tipped her chin up to kiss her. With his reasoning


    tampered by the drug, he acted like a beast.


    "Mm..." Yvonne could not help pushing him when she ran out of breath from the kiss but it was like


    Henry had expected it as he caught her hands and trapped them above her head, immobilizing her.


    When Yvonne woke up in Henry''s arms the next day, the soreness that filled her entire body made


    her suck in a cold breath. Scenes ofst night gushed into her mind as well.


    "Cod!" She covered her reddening cheeks and felt like hiding in a hole from how embarrassed she


    felt.


    Sneaking a peek at the man, Yvonne saw him sleeping soundly with a slight frown. She breathed in


    relief. Good, he was not awake yet. To feel awkward alone was better than feeling awkward


    together!


    Yvonne softly lifted Henry''s arm that was on her waist and scooped up the bathrobe on the floor


    before she furtively got off the couch. Once her feet touched the floor, she fell.


    To prevent waking up Henry, Yvonne bit her lips to stop herself from making any sound but she was


    worried that the noise from her fall would stir him awake too. She quickly stretched her neck to


    check on him, feeling relieved when she saw that he was still asleep. She then put on her robe


    swiftly and slipped out of the study room, limping.


    Just as she stepped out, she met Sue who was wiping the rail.


    "Madam," Sue called out.


    Pretending like she did not hear her, Yvonne pulled the bathrobe over herself tighter and fled back


    to her room while hanging her head.


    Knowing that she was bashful, Sue chuckled and immediately called Master Lancaster to inform the


    old man that his n worked. As expected, the old man cheered in delight and asked Sue to make


    more nutritious food for the youngsters.


    Sue had made some broth a long time ago. When she saw that it was near noon anyway, she put


    away her cleaning rag to knock at the study room.


    Henry woke up from the raps. Hearing Sue’s voice, he recalled what happenedst night at once.


    His drowsy gaze scanned the messy room to see that Yvonne was no longer in it. She had woken


    up and left somehow, but the intimate vibe in the air had still lingered.


    There was an unnamed emotion flowing in Henry''s gaze before he got changed in the bathroom


    and opened the door.


    "Sir, it''s time for lunch," Sue said with a smile.


    Henry looked at her with piercing iciness. "Why did you drug us!"


    Sue already knew that she was going to be questioned today, so she did not panic. Wiping her


    hands on her apron, she answered, "Sir, I wouldn’t dare. Master made me do it!"


    "Grandpa?" Henry was stunned. It was him!Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    Since when did the old man turn so absurd? He was drugging his grandson and granddaughter-in-


    law with aphrodisiac!


    "It''s master. Master said that you and madam aren''t giving him any children so he could only resort


    to this."


    Sue felt wronged for Yvonne when she spoke. This was not even her madam not wanting to have a


    child. I t was sir who did note back for three years and had not evenid a finger on madam.


    How could she get pregnant?


    If she were not worried that the old man would be too shocked from the news, Sue really wanted to


    tell him the truth and have her master teach sir a lesson.


    "I know. You may go.” Henry waved his hand in dismissal with a long face.


    Since it was his grandfather, he could not me it on Sue. In spite of it, it made him upset that he


    was being schemed.


    "Hold on.” Henry stopped Sue, remembering something.


    Sue paused. "Is there anything else that sir would like t o ask?”


    "Where’s the rest of the drug?" Henry stared at her.


    What if there was some leftover drug? Was he and Yvonne getting drugged again?


    "No more. They were two pills. One for you and madam each," Sue answered, spreading her


    hands.


    Henry looked pleased. "Best not to lie to me.


    Otherwise, I won’t let this go even when you’re someone from Grandpa."


    Sue froze. "I understand, sir. I''ll be heading downstairs, sir.”


    Henry hummed and went for the master bedroom.


    Twisting the doorknob, he discovered that it was jammed. The door was locked.


    He wore a deep frown as he called out, "Yvonne Frey, open the door!"


    In the room, Yvonne was curled up in bed and she even quivered when she heard his voice. He


    was awake!


    "Open the door, do you hear me?!’’ Henry repeated himself.


    Yvonne flipped the covers and got off bed to slowly walk over and open the door. "Henry...”


    Her head was lowered as she dared not look at him. What happenedst night was embarrassing.


    She did not know how to face him, worried that he remembered everything that happened and


    assumed that she was a promiscuous woman.


    "What were you doing inside? I had to call twice before you opened the door." Henry nced


    behind Yvonne.


    The girl shook her head. "Nothing. I was just resting.”


    "You don’t feel well?” Henry scanned her with his deep eyes.


    "No, I just feel sleepy."


    Sleeping was fake, taking a rest was the absolute truth. Yvonne was sore everywhere. Nheless,


    she was not going to tell Henry that.


    In spite of it, her acting was terrible. Henry could see that she was holding in the pain at first nce


    and could not help pressing his lips into a thin line. This woman was horribly foolish - she did not


    even know how to express her pain!


    He remembered everything that took cest night, s o he naturally knew how much strength he


    had exerted.


    Yvonne looked thin and frail - it would be a surprise i f she was not injured.


    "Don''t rest first. Go downstairs and have lunch," Henry instructed.


    Yvonne finally looked up at him. "What about you?"


    "I''m taking a shower. I''ll be down in a bit," Henry said and entered the room, going past her.


    Looking at his retreating back, Yvonne felt less restless. His gaze on her just now was clear - it did


    not feel like he thought that she was a licentious woman. It seemed that she was overthinking...


    Yvonne finally had a peace of mind. She patted her bosom chest and softly closed the door as she


    headed downstairs.


    When Sue saw her, she teased, "How did madam sleepst night?"


    "Sue, why''d you do that?" Yvonne looked at her usingly.


    She was not a fool. She thought of what Henry thought of as well. It was impossible for Henry or her


    to drug themselves and there were only three of them in the vi. The most suspicious one was only


    Sue.


    Sue chuckled and repeated what she told Henry just now. “Madam, you can’t me me. This is


    master''s instruction."


    "Grandpa?" Yvonne was startled. "Why is Grandpa doing this?"
