Chapter 191 Return to the Old Home


    Sue scratched her head and said, "I''m afraid that when sir recovers his witster, he might be able


    to guess that I have your contact number. Then he’ll ask me about it."


    Hearing that question, Yvonne became quiet for a short while. She then answered, "If that''s the


    case, just tell him. Don’t let him make it difficult for you."


    "Fine. I''ll hang up now. Please do take care, madam.”


    "Fine. Sue, you need to take care too."


    After Yvonne hung up the phone, she switched off the phone directly. She then looked out the


    window quietly in a daze.


    Actually, she was indeed quite surprised to see Henry asking the others to look for her. At the same


    time, she was slightly happy too.


    Did it mean that he still cared a tiny bit for her? Otherwise, why would he look for her?


    However, that thought remained with Yvonne for only a few seconds before she denied it herself.


    How was it possible for Henry to care about her? If he did care about her, the Conrads would never


    be so bold to do such a thing to her and her baby. The Conrads were so bold just because he


    neither loved nor cared for her.


    But she did not understand the reason why Henry asked the others to look for her. Had she not


    done a good thing by leaving? Now he was free to marry the woman he loved. Why would he look


    for her?


    Did he think that it was quite humiliating for him given that she left behind a divorce agreement and


    left directly without his knowledge? So he wanted to look for her so that he could take revenge on


    her.


    Thinking about that, Yvonne smiled bitterly. She then closed her eyes and leaned against the


    window of the car. Her body swayed with the car. Slowly, she fell asleep.


    "Miss? Miss?"


    Yvonne was shaken into consciousness. She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the middle-


    aged man before her. She asked in a hoarse voice, "Is something wrong?"


    "Miss, we''ve reached the destination. The others have gotten off the bus. You should leave


    immediately too," replied the driver.


    "Did we?" Yvonne was shocked. She soon turned and looked out.


    It was true indeed. The familiar old station stood before her. It seemed to signify that it was indeed


    the ce she wanted to go to.


    Yvonne finally recovered her senses. She thanked the driver, took her luggage, and got off the bus


    immediately.


    After she got off the bus, she was in no haste to leave the station. She stood there and took a look


    around.


    The station was just like how she remembered it. It did not change at all after so many years. It just


    appeared quite old and worn-out.


    The old appearance of that station made her remember some memories from her childhood. She


    could not help but feel a tinge of sadness. She sniffed her nose, and her eyes became teary too.


    Ten years had passed since. Finally, she got to return t o her hometown which she missed the most.


    She thought that she might not have a chance to return there.


    Surprisingly, she returned to her hometown after her divorce.


    She mocked herself. Then, she grabbed her luggage and left the station. She bought some daily


    necessities and candles at a convenience store near the station. After that, she hailed a taxi to go to


    the vige.


    The vige was the same as the station. It did not change much. Yvonne got out of the taxi, took a


    few nces around, and went straight to the chief’s home.


    "Chief Frey, are you home?" She stood in front of a small house and shouted.


    The chief and his family were eating their meal. When he heard the sound, he soon put down his


    fork and


    spoon and went to open the door.


    "Who are you?” The chief looked at Yvonne suspiciously. He felt that she looked slightly familiar t o


    him.


    Yvonne looked at the man who seemed much older than the one in her memory. She felt sad.


    "Chief Frey, it''s me, Yvonne."


    "Yvonne?" The chief said her name once. Then, he widened his eyes. "Are you Yvonne the little


    girl?"


    "Yes, it''s me." Yvonne smiled and nodded.


    The chief opened the door immediately. "Come in, quick."


    "Alright." Yvonne acted ordingly, carrying her luggage and bags as she entered the house.


    They entered the living room, and the chief poured a ss of water for her. "Yvonne, why did you


    come back here? Did your parentse with you?"


    "No, I came alone,” replied Yvonne as she took over the ss of water.

    The chief sat across from her. "Came alone?”


    "Yes, it has been so many years now. It''s about time Ie to visit my grandpa and grandma.”


    When Yvonne talked about them, she seemed to be filled with a yearning for them.


    She missed them deeply.


    "You really shoulde home and visit them." The chief nodded, and he seemed to approve of her


    actions. "If they know that you still remember them, they''ll be quite happy about it in heaven. They


    indeed raised you well."


    “Chief Frey, you''re making fun of me. I haven''t been home for ten years now. They must be quite


    angry at m e." Yvonne lowered her head guiltily.


    The chief smiled slightly. "Your grandparents were open-minded people. They won’t be angry at


    you.


    They do know that you don’t have it easy, living out there given how your parents are... Fine, let’s


    not talk about that. How long do you n to stay here this time around?"


    "Maybe around two to three months," Yvonne replied with uncertainty.


    The chief was shocked. "Why are you staying here for such a long time?"


    "My body is slightly weak. I nned toe here to improve my health." Yvonne gave her an


    exnation.


    Hearing that, the chief soon asked her in concern, "Are you sick?"


    "Yes, I was sick." Yvonne nodded.


    She was forced to donate her bone marrow twice. She was even forced to do an abortion. Now her


    body health had deteriorated.


    Further, she could not bear the cold breeze now. Whenever there was a cold wind, she would feel


    extremely cold.


    It was not even winter yet, and the others were still wearing their autumn outfits. But she had taken


    her winter outfits out and put them on. On her way there, the others even looked at her strangely.


    "You should really rest well here since you''re sick. But I heard that you''re married now. Why didn''t


    your husbande with you? You''re sick. Does he not worry about you?" the chief said in


    annoyance.


    Yvonne''s facial expression worsened slightly. "He’s too busy with work to leave..."


    "How is his work more important than you?" The chief knocked the tobo pipe slightly.


    Yvonne shook her head and smiled bitterly. "Chief Frey, let''s not discuss that. Do you still have my


    old home key with you?"


    "Yes, I have it with me. You pay us every year, and we never forget to take care of its cleanliness.


    We always g o and clean it up. In fact, we just cleaned it up a few days ago. It''s fine for you to stay


    there.” The chief smiled in a friendly manner.


    Yvonne was grateful toward them. "Chief Frey, thank you so much."


    "What''s there to thank me for? You paid us the maintenance fee. Take a seat here first. Let me go


    and get the key for you." The chief chuckled, got up, and left the living room.


    Soon, he returned with a key in his hand. He even brought along a nket for her. He then insisted


    that Yvonne take it with her.


    Yvonne found it hard to refuse his kindness, so she epted it. She then carried the nket along


    with her luggage and various bags and left the chief''s home. She then walked toward her home.


    The old home still appeared the same. It was because the chief and his family always cleaned it up,


    so the garden was quite clean too.


    Yvonne took the key and opened the door. Without the support of the lock, the wooden door was


    pushed open in a rickety manner. The door was worn-out and slightly rotten too. It even made a


    slightly strange creaking sound. It was quite frightening.


    But Yvonne was not frightened. She was just slightly worried.


    She was worried that she had no money at the moment. Otherwise, she would certainly remodel the


    old home.


    She sighed and entered the house with her various bags.


    The interior of the house was indeed clean, and she did not have to clean it up. She just needed to


    wipe the bed clean.


    After she was done, night had fallen. She touched her slightly hungry belly. Then, she took out


    some bread and milk and ate them as her dinner.


    After dinner, she got some water and nned to clean herself up casually before she went to bed.


    After a day''s journey, she was exhausted. She closed her eyes and listened to the noise of the


    insects outside which she had not heard for a long time. She enjoyed a rare peace now, and she fell


    asleep soon after that.


    The next day, she was aroused by a rapid ringing of her phone.


    Yvonne fished for her phone. Without looking at the caller ID, she put it near her ear directly. "Who


    is it?" "Yvonne, where are you?"
