Chapter 263 The Truth


    His simple question made Jacqueline feel as though she had just fallen into an ice cer. Her face


    started t o pale at a speed visible to the naked eye. "Henry... what are you talking about? Who is


    Liam?"


    "You''re denying it?" Henry narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Did you think I would send you and your


    father abroad without anyone keeping an eye on both of you? I have already figured out everything


    between you and Liam. He is the man whom you have loved since the beginning, right?!"


    "I..." Jacqueline stepped back subconsciously. Her legs turned weak from guilt. After staggering two


    steps backward, she fell to the ground on her bottom.


    He knew it!


    He actually found out everything!


    No wonder he was so cold to her when she came back this time. So this was the reason.


    An icy look shed across Henry''s eyes when he saw the flustered look on her face. "Seems like I


    hit the nail on the head. You''ve never loved me since the beginning. You only stayed with me for the


    benefits that the Lancasters could bring to the Conrads. And you came back looking for me this time


    to use me to find a suitable bone marrow for you." "I... I..." Jacqueline''s eyes flickered with guilt,


    unable to evene up with any excuses.


    Henry shut his eyes. When he opened them again, they were filled with nothing but coldness. "It''s


    ridiculous that I never found out anything until now."


    "Henry..."


    "Enough. Save your breath." Henry looked down at her coldly. "I have no intention of getting back at


    you for ying with feelings. I just don’t understand. If the man you loved all this while was Liam,Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    then why did youe back to interfere with my marriage and why did you keep talking about


    getting back together with me? What is your intention?"


    Jacqueline gritted her teeth and said nothing.


    Could she say that it was simply because she didn’t want other women hanging around him?


    She didn''t love him, but she also didn''t want other women to be by his side, let alone allowing him to


    fall i n love with another woman.


    She was the only one that he was allowed to love and treat nicely! Hence, Yvonne Frey was a


    threat to her position and she had to get rid of her!


    Henry was starting to lose his patience at Jacqueline''s silence. "It''s fine if you don’t want to tell. But


    since I already found out that you were only using me, I have no reason to treat you as I did before.


    Let’s talk about how you came up with the scheme that killed my child."


    "What?" Jacqueline’s mind went nk. She even thought her ears were ying tricks on her.


    Killed his child?


    Did he even find out that it was her idea?


    It turned out that Jacqueline had guessed it right.


    Henry repeated all the things she said to Yvonne at the g earlier.


    Her face paled as she listened. "Henry, is that what Yvonne told you?"


    He nodded. "Yes, I asked her what happened between both of you at the g."


    "So you believe her?"


    "Yes, I believe her."


    "How can you believe her?!" Jacqueline shrieked.


    "Henry, you can''t believe her! She''s lying! I didn’t tell her all those things! She''s deceiving you!"


    Jacqueline was extremely worked up.


    Henry looked at her as though she was a fool. "Well, w e can always get a lipreading expert to


    review the CCTV footage and find out if you indeed told her all those things."


    Jacqueline was dumbfounded. Her face was ashen as she felt her soul being sucked out of her


    body.


    Henry crossed his arms, feeling extremely disappointed at Jacqueline. "Now, let''s see if you have


    something else to say?"


    He never thought that Jacqueline would be the mastermind and not Dominic. She was the one who


    had someone forcefully take Yvonne’s bone marrow and aborted the child in her womb.


    At best, Dominic was just an executioner.


    To think that he once even considered forgiving Dominic for fear that she would do foolish things to


    herself. Thinking about it now, he realized just how stupid he was!


    "Henry...” Countless emotions shed across Jacqueline''s eyes before she finally got up and


    kneeled before Henry, crying in remorse. "I’m sorry Henry! I know it''s my fault! I shouldn''t have done


    that but I have no other choices if I wish to live!"


    "You would sacrifice others just so that you can live?" Henry''s expression darkened when he heard


    her words and growled. 1


    Jacqueline was frightened. She cowered in fear as her cries turned a lot softer. "I... I’ve never


    thought of sacrificing Yvonne Frey. It was just taking her bone marrow-she wouldn''t die from that..."


    Henryughed out of anger. "Then what about my child?"


    Jacqueline lowered her head guiltily again. "T-That was an ident. Who asked her to be


    pregnant?!" "So you mean to say that she shouldn’t be pregnant?"


    Henry kicked the coffee table over.


    Jacqueline stood up in shock. Her shoulders shrank and she didn''t dare to speak.


    She knew that no matter what she said right now, it would only make him even angrier. So it was


    better for her to keep quiet.


    "You said you wish to live, right?” Henry suddenly asked.


    Jacqueline’s heart thumped. “What do you want to do?"


    Henry took a breath then spoke coldly, "Jacqueline, remember that you''re only breathing now


    because Yvonne and my child have sacrificed themselves. I won''t do anything to you. I''ll allow you


    to continue living. In return, Dominic Conrad will be the one to bear all your wrongdoings. I''ll make


    him pay double the price.”


    Jacqueline shook her head in terror. "No, you can''t do this, Henry!”


    "Why not? You''re the cause of everything. You can’t me anyone else but yourself for being so


    vicious.” It was at that moment that Henry''s phone suddenly rang in his pocket.


    He took it out with a frown, then put it back after taking a nce at it. "The auction is about to begin.


    I''ve already told you what I wanted to tell you. You better reflect on yourself.”


    After saying that, he went past her toward the exit of the lounge without taking another look at her.


    She was once like a ray of sunshine in his boring life and he fell in love with her inextricably. In his


    heart, she was such a kind and pure girl. He wanted to give her all the good things in the world, but


    in the end, she abandoned him.


    Even if that was the case, he never hated her, yet she kept on using him. In order to continue living,


    she did horrible things.


    Maybe Yvonne was right-he had never really known her!


    When he came out from the lounge, he saw Yvonne crouching in the corridor, staring at her phone


    in a daze. He went over and asked, "What are you looking a t?"


    "I''m reading a novel." Yvonne raised her head and looked at him. "Are you done?"


    "Yeah," he nodded.


    She stood up but wobbled.


    Henry steadied her on her feet. "What''s the matter?"


    "My legs are numb," she exined embarrassedly.


    He raised an eyebrow at her. "How long have you been crouching there?"


    "For as long as you were talking in there,” she replied.


    Henry pressed his lips. "Why didn''t you go find a seat i n the ballroom?”


    "I was waiting for you." Yvonne stared into his eyes.


    Henry was slightly taken aback before feeling warm i n his heart. "Don''t wait for me like that again


    next time. If you insist on waiting, then find a ce to sit down at least. The auction is starting soon,


    let’s go."


    "Okay." Yvonne came out from his hold and put her hand on his arm.


    On their way to the auction hall, she moved her lips but hesitated to speak several times.


    Henry sighed. "Just say whatever is on your mind."


    "Well nothing in particr, I just..."


    "You just want to know what I talked to her about?" Henry continued for her.
