Chapter 241A Wedding Ring


    "Uh..." Yvonne froze and quickly looked for an excuse. " I heard it."


    "Right, your husband''s friends with Mr. Lancaster. It''s normal that you heard about it." Lte


    nodded, not doubting Yvonne.


    With a light exhale of air, Yvonne chuckled dryly and said nothing.


    Lte was suddenly excited. "Right, Yvonne, let me tell you a secret about Mr. Lancaster. Have


    you heard about it yet? Ourpany was heated in discussion today. Mr. Lancaster actually wore a


    ring - a ring!"


    "A ring, so?" Yvonne was confused. It was normal to wear a ring.


    Lte rolled her eyes. "Don’t you get what I mean? I''m saying he wears a ring on his left ring


    finger, a wedding ring! What does this mean? It means that Mr. Lancaster is actually married!”


    Yvonne jolted when she heard it, thoroughly frozen.


    Henry wore his wedding ring? Since when?


    "Lyn." Yvonne gripped her phone tightly, her question came out urgent. "Are you sure you saw that it


    was a wedding ring clearly? Not any other ring?"


    Lyn was a little vexed. "Yvonne, are you doubting my eyesight? I''m plenty sure that it’s a wedding


    ring."


    "It’s actually true..." Yvonne muttered in a whisper.


    They had gotten married for three years and she had always been the only one wearing the


    wedding ring. Henry had never worn it but he was wearing it now.


    She had not seen anything on his finger yesterday, so he had only worn it this morning. Why was he


    doing that? Was he trying to tell everyone that he was married?


    While Yvonne''s thoughts ran amok in her head with wild guesses about the reasons Henry was


    wearing his ring, Lte spoke again, "Of course it''s true.


    Could it be fake news? It''s just so shocking that Mr. Lancaster''s actually married. When though?


    There wasn''t any news about it previously."


    Yvonne hung her head, quietly replying in her mind,'' Three years ago, of course.''


    "Right, Yvonne, your husband''s good friends with Mr. Lancaster. He should know about it. Can you


    ask him i f Mr. Lancaster''s really married or if he''s wearing the wedding ring because he has a


    fiancee?" Lte suddenly suggested.


    Yvonne grimaced. "Forget it, Lyn. It''s his privacy. How could I ask my husband about it? Besides,


    whether Mr. Lancaster''s actually married or not, it''s got nothing to do with us. It’s fine to gossip


    about it, but there''s no need to inquire deeper."


    "You''re right.” Lte thought about it and nodded in agreement before she got mysterious again.


    "One more thing, Yvonne. I discovered that Mr. Lancaster''s wedding ring looked familiar - it''s like


    I’ve seen the matching half somewhere before."


    Yvonne felt her heart drop at that, and her reply came out in a stutter. "Fa - familiar?"


    "Mm. When he came to talk to the nning department this morning, I took more than a double take


    at his ring because I was so shocked about it. My instinct was that it looked familiar, like I''d seen it


    before, but I can''t recall," Lte said and knocked her head.


    Yvonne chuckled anxiously. "Maybe it''s the same ring or something and you’ve seen by chance."


    "That''s impossible!" Lte rejected her hypothesis immediately. "Someone with the status of Mr.


    Lancaster will never get something the same like others. He’d look for a designer to craft it


    personally, s o the ring on him should be a unique design in this world. Yet it''s this one and only ring


    that I feel familiar with, I suspect that..."


    "What?" Yvonne got nervous.


    Lte stroked her chin and spoke with confidence," I suspect that I''ve seen Mr. Lancaster''s wife or


    fiancee before but where... I''m not sure. Like you said, maybe I’vee across her by chance."


    Yvonne breathed unnoticeably in relief at that. Thankfully her friend did not suspect her.


    Rxingpletely, Yvonne patted her chest lightly."


    Maybe. Okay, enough of this. If Mr. Lancaster''s really married or has a fiancee, he''ll probably make


    it public one day. You''ll know from whom you saw the matching ring on then."


    "You’re right. I was too persistent over it," Lteughed. 1


    Yvonne hummed and said, "Right, I have good news to tell you."


    "What is it?" Lte’s interest was piqued.


    Yvonne''s grin grew wider. "In the future, we''ll be working together again. I’m going to the


    headquarters of the Lancaster Group to work too in two days."


    "Really?" Lte was delightfully surprised.


    Yvonne nodded. "Yup.”


    "Then... are you still Mr. Lancaster''s secretary?" Lte pursued.


    Yvonne hesitated before replying, "Not sure. I''ll know b y then. But I’d rather work in the same


    department with you than be his secretary."


    "It''s not important whether we’re in the same department. What matters is that we can meet every


    day again.” Lte was already bouncing in thrill on the other end of the line. "I''m so happy!


    Yvonne, how did you get back?”


    "Did you forget? My husband’s friends with Mr. Lancaster," Yvonne lied without cracking.


    Lte pped her head. "Oh right, look at this memory of mine."


    "Heh." Yvonne shook her head with a chuckle. "Also, I made my husband ask about you being


    transferred to the headquarters for more experience. Mr. Lancaster isn’t your secret admirer. He


    thinks that your capability is not bad so your case is like a special exception."


    "That’s what I think." Lte was relieved but she joked instantly, "Yvonne, say, if Mr. Lancaster''s


    really my admirer, should I just go along with it?"


    Yvonne rolled her eyes. "You''re thinking too much. Didn’t you just say that he’s married?"


    "Ah, I''m just kidding. Alright, be on your way. I’ll wait for you at the mall."


    "Okay, sure."


    Hanging up, Yvonne checked the time and stretched herself before packing up and headed out the


    door.


    They hung out for several hours. When Yvonne got back, she was drained. Sue hade to the


    apartment some time ago and was rmed when she saw Yvonne walking into the living room


    dragging her feet. "What''s wrong with you, madam?"


    Yvonne looked at her with a dry chuckle. "I’m fine."


    "Fine? You''re white. Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Sue helped her sit down on the couch


    quickly before pouring her a ss of water.


    Feeling much better after the water, Yvonne answered, "Sue, don''t worry, I''m really fine. I just went


    out for too long and can''t quite take it."


    Lte could shop longer than what she imagined. Thest time they shopped, they went around


    for two hours. This time, it was at least five. After so much walking, Yvonne’s legs already felt


    leaden, heavy and sore.


    Sue sighed in relief at Yvonne''s exnation but lightly chastised her, "Madam, your health isn’t the


    best. Don''t shop for so long next time. If something happens..."

    "Okay, Sue.” Yvonne cut her off. "I know my limit."


    "Right!” Sue prodded between Yvonne’s brows, helpless against her.


    Yvonne stuck out her tongue yfully. "Are you angry, Sue?”


    "No." Sue shook her head before recalling something and retrieved a name card from the pocket of


    her apron. "Madam, this is for you."


    "What''s this?" Yvonne looked at the foreign name and number on the card in puzzlement.
