Chapter 268 Eavesdropping


    Yvonne gently massaged her eyes. "It''s not that. I was already feeling a little hungover when I woke


    up this morning after drinking too muchst night. Plus I had another two sses just now so that


    made it worse. I''ll ask Sue to make some soup to relieve it."


    After she said that, she got up and headed to the kitchen.


    However, her foot got caught onto the sofa after taking a few steps.


    She shrieked as she was caught off guard and began t o fall backward.


    Henry''s pupils contracted when he saw her falling and immediately grabbed onto her arm after


    cing his ss on the coffee table.


    However, Henry had grabbed onto her a little toote. Instead of being able to pull her up, he was


    pulled down together with her and they both fell onto the ground. Luckily, neither of them were


    injured due to the carpet that absorbed most of the impact.


    Henry hadnded on top of Yvonne and she was slightly ufortable with the weight on top of


    her.


    "U-um..." Her face blushed as she pushed the man''s chest. "Could you get up please?"


    Henry did not move and stared into her eyes instead.


    She could feel her heart racing as she stared at Henry’s passionate gaze and her breathing became


    heavy. "You’re very heavy.”


    She opened her mouth again.


    This time, Henry lifted his upper body slightly but still did not stand up. Instead, he rested both his


    arms on the ground around Yvonne''s body. "You...”


    Before he could even speak, a shriek came from behind him.


    Henry raised his eyebrow and turned to look in the direction the shriek came from to see Sue


    standing by the kitchen with a surprised look on her face.


    "Sue!" growled Henry.


    Sue gathered her emotions and awkwardly replied," Ahem... I was justing out to pick up


    something.”


    "And have you taken it?" asked Henry coldly.


    Sue rolled her eyes. "Yes I have, I should return to my work now. I shall not interrupt the two of you


    then."


    As she finished, Sue stifled herughter and went back into the kitchen.


    Silence fell in the living room again. Yvonne''s face was now as red as a tomato.


    She had never expected Sue to walk in and see the position they were in-Sue had evenughed at


    her. How was Yvonne supposed to face her now?


    Henry looked at her and single-handedly removed her hand from her face and asked, "Why are you


    covering your face?"


    "What do you think? Sue just saw what happened," scolded Yvonne, still blushing.


    Henry snickered. "So what if she saw us? She''s left already. Also, didn''t she ask us to continue?"


    "Continue?" Yvonne''s eyes widened. "What are you intending to do?"


    "What do you think?" asked Henry in return.


    Yvonne’s eyes widened. "Are you thinking of doing it here?"


    "Why not!" Henry eximed as he reached out for the ss of wine on the coffee table.


    He then drank all the wine in the ss in front of her confused eyes.


    As he finished, he ced the ss back onto the table, then used that hand to raise Yvonne''s chin,


    forcing her mouth open, then lowered in to kiss her and slowly transferred the wine from his mouth


    to hers.


    "Y-you...” Yvonne was stunned. The moment she realized what he was doing and wanted to speak,


    she had been choked by the sudden gush of wine flowing into her mouth. 1


    Henry got up and looked at her, waiting for her to finish coughing.

    When she was almost done coughing, he went in to kiss her again before she could scold him for


    forcing wine down her throat.


    Alcohol was known to be used as a stimnt and the alcohol Yvonne had drank caused her to be


    seduced away by Henry once again in addition to the condition she was already in.


    She could not contain her excitement and was carried away in an instant. Her arms were raised and


    wrapped around Henry''s neck.


    As he noticed Yvonne reacting to his advances, Henry felt even more encouraged and the intensity


    of his kiss increased before he dominated herpletely.


    Gradually, the atmosphere in the living room changed and not long after, clothes began to scatter


    everywhere


    The next day, Yvonne got out of Henry’s car and waved at him before turning to leave.


    Just as she was about to leave, Henry suddenly stood i n front of the elevator and shouted to her,


    "Come up to my office for lunch from now on.”


    "What?" Yvonne was startled. Before she could ask him for the reason, he had already entered the


    elevator and the doors closed.


    Helpless, she could only hold back her question.


    She decided to have lunch at his office and save some money along the way which was a good


    idea.


    Yvonne began to hum and entered another elevator to head up to her nning Department.


    Lte saw her and began to scan her, then rubbed her chin and teased, "Wow, look at you,


    looking fabulous. I suppose you had your fair share of funst night.”


    Yvonne’s face blushed bright red. "What are you saying!"


    "Judging by your reaction, I guess I''m correct then?" snickered Yvonne.


    Yvonne pped Lte on the back and said," Alright, hurry up and turn on yourptop. It''s time for


    work."


    "Alright alright.” Lte nodded, proud at herself.


    Time seemed to always pass very quickly in the morning. When it was lunchtime, Yvonne rejected


    Lte’s request to have lunch together and secretly went to the private elevator while avoiding


    everyone else.


    As she arrived at the CEO’s office, Yvonne raised her hand to knock on the door when she


    suddenly realized that the door was slightly ajar and a faint sob could be heard from the inside.


    Hold on, sobbing?


    Why would there be someone sobbing in Henry’s office?


    Yvonne found it strange and couldn’t help but feel curious. She bent and ced her ear by the slit in


    the door to eavesdrop.


    She was surprised to find out who the owner of the sound was.


    It was Jacqueline!


    What was she doing here?


    Yvonne felt a little sour and bit on her lip subconsciously.


    At that moment, she was not satisfied with only eavesdropping on their conversation. She pushed


    the door silently to open it a little more. That way, she could have a look at what was happening


    inside.


    All she saw was Jacqueline wearing a white dress and standing in front of Henry''s desk whilst


    muttering something inaudible from her incessant crying.


    "I beg of you Henry, please let my father go. I know you hate us for the things we''ve done, but it was


    all my idea. If you really must have your revenge, me it on me then..."


    "Didn''t I exin my intention to you clearlyst night? Why did youe and find me personally


    again today?" said Henry coldly.


    Jacqueline''s petite face paled. "Are you really going to be so cruel to me, Henry?” "I''m not the one


    who’s cruel, you are. You felt no remorse when you cruellymitted those crimes previously. Now


    that you’re on the receiving end, suddenly I’m the cruel one?” mocked Henry.


    Jacqueline was so shocked by his words she stepped back in disbelief. "Can’t we move past all this


    now that it already happened a long time ago? I''m willing to kneel and apologize to Ms. Frey. Please


    let my father g o, Henry, I can''t bear to imagine what''ll happen to him there due to his age. Plus, the


    Conrad Group needs him."


    Yvonne rolled her eyes in contempt as she heard this.


    Kneel and apologize?


    If that could solve and repent her sins, would there still bew and order?
