Chapter 92 Applying Medication 1


    "None other than because he wants a grandchild." Sue looked at her weakly.


    Yvonne looked stunned before she moved her gaze downward in guilt. "It''s my fault for not fulfilling


    Grandpa’s wish all this while..."


    "What does it have to do with you, madam? It’s sir. If sir had been with you at home all the time,


    how could you not get pregnant?" Sue said and red upstairs.


    Yvonne tucked a few stray strands of hair behind her ear. "Sue, don''t me Henry. I’ll try to


    conceive soon."


    "No one can be sure of this." Sue patted the back of Yvonne’s hand. "Madam, don''t pressure


    yourself too much. Sometimes, you won''t get pregnant when you''re stressed."


    "Really?" Yvonne got nervous.


    Sue nodded. "Of course. My daughter-inw was like this previously, unable to get pregnant despite


    wanting it very much. After she went for a checkup, the doctor said that she was wanting it too


    much and the pressure disabled her from conceiving. So just keep an open mind, madam.”


    "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Sue." Yvonne took a deep breath and tried to calm down.


    "That’s right. Let’s go, we''ll wait for sir in the dining


    room."


    "Mm."


    Yvonne went to the dining room with Sue and Henry came not long after she sat down. Yvonne took


    a quick glimpse at him before retracting her gaze and starting to eat.


    "Aboutst night..." Henry started but Yvonne cut him off swiftly. "I know, it’s Sue."


    "Sue told you?" Henry arched a brow.


    Yvonne nodded and shook her head. "I guessed it on m y own but Sue told me that Grandpa asked


    her to do it."


    "It’s Grandpa." Henry nodded.


    Yvonne bit her lips and hesitated. "Henry, don''t be mad at Grandpa."


    She knew that this man hated being schemed. Three years ago when she got married to him, it was


    also his grandfather''s scheme if they got particr about it. Other than not loving her, he had left


    her high and dry for three years as revenge on his grandfather too. Now that the old man drugged


    him, Yvonne was afraid of him falling out with his grandfather.


    The old man was aged now and regarded family highly. If he had strife with Master Lancaster due to


    this, it was a pity for thetter.


    "Why do I have to be mad at Grandpa?" Henry frowned and looked at Yvonne weirdly.


    He was dissatisfied with the old man’s action, but he would not get mad at him because he did


    promise Yvonne to give her a child. All he could say was that the old man was too impatient.


    "You really aren''t mad at Grandpa?" Yvonne asked to make sure.


    Discerning her skepticism, Henry was a little upset." He''s my grandfather, what do you think?"


    "That’s good then." Yvonne’s tensed body rxed.


    Henry took a sip from the coffee in front of him. "You seem to be very concerned about Grandpa?"Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Mm." Yvonne hummed with a nod.


    "Why?”


    "No reason. Because he’s your grandpa," Yvonne replied with a smile.


    There was a jolt in Henry''s heart. "Because he''s my grandpa, you care about him so much?"


    "It’s not just because of this." Yvonne put down her knife and fork.


    Henry looked down. "There are other reasons?"


    "Mm. Grandpa treats me very well. He''s the nicest to m e other than Lyn,” Yvonne said gratefully.


    Since her younger brother''s birth, her life of a nightmare began. She basically grew up in


    harassment. No one genuinely cared for her. It was when she met Lte after she worked that she


    had a friend and re-experienced the feeling of being cared for.


    After she got married to Henry, thetter was aloof toward her but the old man was very kind.


    Although his kindness was based on the premise that she could give birth to a child, he was still


    kind and Yvonne was willing to repay that benevolence.


    "You''re quite easy to please then," Henrymented lightly while putting down the coffee cup.


    Yvonne bit her fork and smiled. "Contentment brings joy."


    "What a narrow perspective!" Henry nced at her in disdain but there was a small upward angle


    on the corners of his lips. 1


    When Yvonne caught it, her eyes bulged like she had seen something mystical. She gasped,


    "Henry, you smiled!"


    Henry put on a poker face at once. "I didn’t!"


    "You did smile." Yvonne insisted that she did not mistake it.


    Henry furrowed his brows. "I said I didn''t. It means that I didn’t."


    You did!"


    "Hmm?" Henry squinted.


    Yvonne tensed and quickly changed her reply. "Okay,


    you didn''t..."


    It was only then that Henry let go of the subject. Yvonne patted her chest in fright,ining


    inwardly about Henry not admitting the truth and he even threatened her.


    "Who''s Lyn?" he suddenly asked.


    Yvonne dismissed her internal grumbling and answered, "My colleague in my previous department.


    She''s also my best friend, Lte Yaeger. The one who stayed with me during the team building


    trip."


    Henry nodded. "You don''t have to go to work today."


    "Why?" Yvonne stopped munching on a bun.


    Henry took out his phone to check. "Weren''t you in difort?"


    "I... I - no?" Yvonne''s gaze flitted everywhere.


    Henry looked at her coolly. "Do you want me to say where you feel ufortable?"


    Yvonne blushed immediately. "You... You..."


    She mumbled for a long time without making aplete sentence. Henry had already reeled in his


    gaze. "I’ve asked Joe to send some medication over. Apply it on your ownter and rest at home


    after that."


    "Mm..." Yvonne nodded swiftly, feeling awkward and embarrassed but also smitten.


    He had noticed her difort and had someone prepare the medication for her. Could she then


    assume that she was gradually making a presence in his line of vision?


    As she thought about it, she chuckled out of reverie.


    Henry could not help knitting his brows together when he heard her bizarre chortle. "What are you


    laughing at?"


    Yvonne quickly adjusted her expression. "No -nothing."


    Henry did not have it in him to ask since she did not want to disclose it either. After finishing their


    breakfast, he left the vi.


    Not too long after his departure, Joe came with the medication. When Yvonne received the


    medicine and Joe''s teasing gaze, she would die to disappear on the spot. Could Henry not send a


    woman to give her the medicine instead?


    Returning to the room, Yvonne washed her face to lose the heat and blush on her cheeks. She


    unboxed the medicine that Joe sent and read the instruction leaflet before bashfully applying the


    medication on herself.


    After that, Sue suddenly knocked. "Madam, are you asleep?"


    Yvonne quickly hid the medicine in the drawer and got dressed before going to open the door. "Not


    yet. What is it?"


    "There''s a call for you." "From who?" Yvonne asked curiously.


    Sue shook her head. "I don’t know. The caller didn''t want to tell.”


    Yvonne was puzzled. "Is it a man or a woman?"


    Since they were looking for her, why did the person not ring her mobile phone but the vi''s


    landline?


    "It''s a woman, sounds old from the voice," Sue answered.


    Yvonne hesitated for a few seconds. "Has she hung u p?"


    "Not yet."


    "I''ll go down and get it then."


    Yvonne closed the door to her room and went downstairs with Sue. She held the handset next to


    her ear as Sue passed it to her. "Hello, this is Yvonne Frey speaking. May I know who this is?"


    "Hello, Miss Frey. I''m Miss Conrad''s caretaker," the person on the line answered politely.


    Yvonne sobered up. "Miss Conrad?"
