Chapter 167 Jacqueline''s Apology
The caller was Jacqueline.
The one who forcefully took her bone marrow and indirectly killed her child.
In the past, Jacqueline’s existence was merely a hindrance, but now that feeling had turned into
hatred. Although Jacqueline was not directly involved with what happened to her, it was a fact that
Jacqueline had cost her her bone marrow and the life of her child, and that made her equally guilty.
Yvonne put down her bowl, grabbed her phone, and answered it.
"Miss Frey..." said Jacqueline, her voice filled with remorse.
With a straight face and a harsh tone, she said, "What d o you want?"
"I owe you an apology," said Jacqueline.
Her face remained unchanged. "Apology? What for?"
"Of course it''s because of your bone marrow. I know what Henry did to you - he forcefully took your
bone marrow to cure me and that also cost you y... your child. I am sorry Yvonne, this is all on me, I
am so sorry," cried Jacqueline.
Yvonne sneered, "Do you really feel sorry?"
"Yes, I do. I waspletely unaware of what had happened -1 only found out about it after the
surgery. I did mean to call you immediately after I found out, but my dad forbade me from going
anywhere near my phone, and that''s why I''m only calling you now, I''m really sorry Yvonne."
Jacqueline was crying profusely and her apology sounded very sincere.
If it were any soft-hearted person, they would have forgiven her on the spot in a heartbeat.
But to Yvonne, even if the world copsed, she could not bring herself to forgive Jacqueline.
"If you really feel sorry and want to make amends, Miss Conrad, give me back my bone marrow and
my child. If you do that, I will forgive you and put this behind us. Otherwise, you can stop it with your
crocodile tears. You sound like you are showing off instead," Yvonne coldly said, immediately
hanging up the phone right after.
Jacqueline was bbergasted, she never imagined Yvonne would be such a cold-hearted person.
But nheless, she got what she wanted.
The reason she made the call was only to confirm her suspicions that it really was Henry who
nned all this.
At the thought of this, her lips curved upwards, but almost instantly, she changed her expression to
make it look as if she had been wronged and called Henry.
"Hank..." sobbed Jacqueline. 1
Henry had been mentally exhausted due to the recent events and was in no mood to deal with her.
With a nd tone, "What do you want?"
"I just called Miss Frey," said Jacqueline as she bit her lip.
Henry''s face slightly changed, "What did you say? You called Yvonne?"
"Yes."
"Why did you call her?" roared Henry.
Jacqueline was taken aback. She was startled for a while and didn’t know how to respond.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
This was the first time Henry had shouted at her.
At that moment, Jacqueline truly felt that she had been wronged and she hated Henry for it.
How dare he raise his voice against her!
She would never have tolerated his behavior, but she was forced to as he was still of use to her.
"Hank, was it wrong for me to call her? I only wanted t o apologize to her," Jacqueline sobbed, i
Beads of cold sweat stood out from his thin lips, "She doesn''t need your apology, Jackie. Now that
you''ve gotten her bone marrow, you should never appear in her sight ever again. Once you''ve
recovered, Jackie, I want you to fly to another country and nevere back."
Jacqueline cried, "Nevere back? Hank, are you abandoning me?” 2
"I''m not abandoning you, but you definitely cannot stay here any longer. Do you think Grandpa
wouldn''t find out what happened? He will definitely realize what happened and when he does, what
do you think i s going to happen to the Conrads?" said Henry in a cold voice.
Panicking, Jacqueline asked nervously, "But I have you, Hank, won''t you help me when that
happens?"
"There’s nothing that I can do Jackie. To be honest, I can’t bear the sight of you just as much as
Yvonne to m e, now that I''ve lost my child because of your father," said Henry as he firmly gripped
his phone.
Jacqueline’s pupils contracted as it was filled with anger and contempt, but as she spoke, her tone
was still so remorseful that one could tell she was a good actress.
"I''m sorry Hank, I apologize on my father''s behalf as well. Alright, once I’m recovered, I will leave
the country..."
In truth, Jacqueline had already nned to leave the country once she had recovered, but she
didn''t like the idea of being exiled. If she were to leave, she wanted to be sure that she would still be
able to travel freely without restraints.
Moreover, she only left her country to find that heartless man, and surely a flock of women must
have gathered around him over the past six months.
Just let them wait. As soon as she has recovered, she would definitely make them all disappear.
After hearing Jacqueline’s reply, Henry''s tensed face slightly rxed. "Alright, we’ll leave it at that.
Just don''t call Yvonne anymore."
"...Okay," replied Jacqueline in a very weak tone.
Henry hung up the phone and ced it on his office desk tiredly. He rubbed his temples to rx.
Joe knocked on the door and entered the office. "It’s time for the meeting Mr. Lancaster, the
shareholders are asking the reason for your tardiness."
"I’ll be right there," said Henry as he stood up and walked out of his office.
Joe closely followed behind him.
Henry stopped as he arrived at the doorstep of the boardroom. "I want you to go over to the
hospital."
"To see madam?" asked Joe.
Henry nodded, "Jacqueline called her not long ago. Could you please check on Yvonne to see how
she''s taking it?"
"Why don''t you call Sue directly to find out, Mr. Lancaster?" Joe asked with a confused face.
With a low voice, Henry replied, "Sue won''t answer my calls."
"Understand, I’ll head over there now," replied Joe, a slight feeling of sympathy could be felt from
Joe towards Henry. 1
Mr. Lancaster was really pitiful. Aside from madam giving him the silent treatment, even Sue wasn''t
willing to meet him.
But, if Joe were to judge, Mr. Lancaster had iting.
Sue''s face copsed when she saw Joe in the hospital, "What are you doing here?"
"I''m here to see madam," replied Joe with a smile.
Sue waved her hands in disdain, "Leave here at once. Don''t you know madam has no interest in
meeting any of you at the moment?"
"Sue..."
A voice came from Yvonne''s ward just as Joe was about to speak, "Sue, is that Mr. Woods?"
Sue red at Joe, "Yes."
"Let him in please.”
Joe''s eyes lit up and he walked past Sue to enter the ward before she could even react.
“Madam," said Joe with a gentle voice as he ced a basket of flowers and fruits on the table.
Yvonne raised an eyebrow, "You can stop calling me
madam, I won''t be one for much longer.”
Shocked, Joe proceeded to ask tentatively, "What do you mean madam?”
Yvonne shook her head with no intention to exin," You''re here because he asked you to, aren’t
you?”
It was obvious who she was referring to.
Joe nodded, "Yes, Mr. Lancaster found out that the girl from the Conrads had called you, so he
asked me toe and see you.”
"Do you see me now?" said Yvonne as she looked at him.
Joe adjusted his sses, "Yes, you seem to be somewhat stable emotionally.”
"That’s good, don’t report back to him that I have gone hysterical. He would be disappointed about
that,” said Yvonne sarcastically.
As the corner of his mouth twitched, Joe replied, "You jest, madam."
How was he supposed to tell Mr. Lancaster what she just said?
"I am not joking," said Yvonne as she pursed her lips, her voice cold and harsh.
Joe rubbed the tip of his nose, swiftly changing the subject, "Is that all you would like to tell me
when you let me in madam?" "No, I want you to pass a message to Henry. Tell him I want to meet
him, and that there is something that I need to discuss with him in person, face to face!" replied
Yvonne.
Joe rolled his eyes, "May I know what is it about madam?"
