Chapter 280 Public Revenge


    "I''m alright,” replied Yvonne with a wry smile, her throat slightly dry. “Just feeling a little cold from the


    wind."


    Sue rubbed her hands together and said, "Let’s head back into the vi then madam."


    "It''s ok, let''s wait for Henry.” Yvonne shook her head and looked at the rainy scenery.


    After staring in that direction for a few minutes, Henry appeared with Jacqueline in his arms from


    within the mist caused by the rain.


    Both of them werepletely drenched. Jacqueline was lying in his arms with her wig covering her


    face. Hence, Yvonne was unable to see her face.


    However, she could see that Jacqueline’s skin was so pale that it looked as if she was a corpse.


    It was obvious that Jacqueline was not in good condition at that moment.


    However, Yvonne was not concerned about all this. She was only concerned about Henry.


    "H-Henry..." Yvonne called out to him subconsciously a s Henry walked past her with Jacqueline in


    his arms.


    However, Henry did not reply to her and continued to carry Jacqueline into the vi without even


    looking at her. He hadpletely ignored Yvonne.


    Yvonne’s face paled, and her heart froze as well.


    She held tightly onto Sue’s hand, her voice slightly croaky as she said, "Sue, do you think Henry


    couldn''t hear me, or did he ignore me on purpose?" 1


    Sue could feel that she was in pain and patted her hand in sympathy. "Don''t think too much about it


    madam, the rain is so heavy that sir actually might not have heard you. It’s understandable."


    "Is that so? But I can''t shake the feeling that he did it o n purpose. Also, I saw it in his eyes as he


    carried Jacqueline inside. Those eyes showed concern for Jacqueline." Yvonne’s face turned bitter,


    i


    Yvonne had prepared herself for this day toe.


    Yet when she saw how concerned Henry was for Jacqueline at the time, her heart was in so much


    pain.


    This was enough to prove that Henry had not meant it when he said he did not care for Jacqueline


    any longer when in fact he still had some feelings for her. Although those feelings may not have


    been as strong a s they used to be, Jacqueline was still his first love and that made it unforgettable


    for him.


    Sue was sharp enough to realize what Yvonne was thinking at that moment. She took a deep


    breath and sighed, then feigned ignorance and said, "I think you’re overthinking things madam. It is


    normal for sir to be worried for Jacqueline. I would be too if I were in his shoes."


    "What?" Yvonne was startled and couldn’tprehend what Sue had just said.


    Sue smiled and said, "Think about it madam. If sir had not carried Jacqueline in at the time, she


    could''ve died with the condition she was in. If that had really happened, the consequences that


    would have followed would be unthinkable. I believe sir thought of this and was anxious, hence his


    actions just now.”


    Yvonne twitched her lips, not knowing whether tough or cry. "Sue..."


    Of course she knew that Sue had said all that just to console her and stop her from thinking too


    much.


    But undeniably, Yvonne felt better thanks to her.


    "Alright madam, let''s go back inside. It''s so cold outside that we might catch a cold if we stay any


    longer," reminded Sue.


    Yvonne nodded. "Let''s go."


    Back at the vi, the living room was empty so it was obvious the two of them were upstairs.


    Yvonne was worried that Henry had carried Jacqueline to his room and grabbed Sue as they


    hurried upstairs together.


    It wasn''t until they arrived upstairs that Yvonne realized that she had really overthought things this


    time.


    Henry had ced Jacqueline in the guest room instead of his own room.


    Yvonne let out a sigh of relief and felt embarrassed at the same time for misunderstanding Henry.


    She knocked on the door with her reddened face. The door was half-open at the time, so Yvonne


    had walked in without waiting for a reply after knocking.


    The room was quiet. Jacqueline was lying by the bed with Henry sitting beside her, his gaze fixed at


    Jacqueline.


    Yvonne felt a sharp burning pain stinging her when she saw this. Tears began to gather around her


    eyes.


    She bit her lip and thought to herself. Did Henry sit beside her like he did now when she was in a


    coma previously?


    "Madam," said Sue as she nudged Yvonne when she saw that something was wrong with her.


    Yvonne realized that she was out of order and took a deep breath before calling out to the man that


    was by the bed. "Henry."


    The man held his head up. "When did youe in?"


    Yvonne''s face darkened.


    How dare he ask her when she had entered the room?


    How could he not have heard her knocking just now?


    Was he so enchanted by Jacqueline that he couldn’t hear anything?


    Thinking of this, Yvonne curled her lips and replied in a cold tone, "I just got here."


    Henry was unaware of Yvonne''s unhappiness at the time and massaged his temples. He then stood


    up and said, "You''re here just at the right time. Her clothes are wet, get her changed."

    "But sir, we do not have Ms. Conrad''s clothes here," said Sue.


    Henry raised an eyebrow and looked at Yvonne.


    Yvonne understood what he meant and couldn''t help but lower her head in contempt. "I’ll go and


    grab a change of clothes from my closet. You should go shower and get changed as well Henry,


    otherwise you might catch a cold."


    "Alright, I''ll be going now.” Henry left the room after h e spoke.


    Sue shot Jacqueline a look of disdain and asked, "Are you really going to bring your clothes for her


    to change into?"


    "What else can I do? Wasn’t that what Henry meant when he looked at me?" answered Yvonne with


    her lips curved.


    Sue snorted. "What is sir thinking? Clearly he knows that the two of you are not on terms, yet he


    asked you t o bring your clothes for her to change into." "That''s enough Sue, I''ll go to my room to


    bring my clothes. You wait for me here.” Yvonne got ready to go


    out.


    Sue grabbed onto her hand to stop her. "Hold on madam, this girl does not deserve to wear your


    clothes. I''ll go and bring mine instead."


    "Is that alright though?" Yvonne blinked her eyes in disbelief.


    Sueughed and said to her, "What’s wrong with it? She should be d that she has a change of


    clothes in the first ce."


    After she spoke, Sue left the room.


    Soon enough, Sue returned with a set of clothes.


    Yvonne nced at the clothes and noticed that the colors had faded and even the style was old


    fashioned. It was obvious that the clothes were meant for a mature woman such as Sue.


    But Yvonne had never seen Sue wear such clothes before. They were probably buried deep inside


    her closet amongst her other clothes.


    "Are you doing this on purpose Sue?" asked Yvonne with a snicker as she pointed at the clothes


    Sue was holding onto.


    Sue snickered and walked towards Jacqueline without replying.


    Sue changed Jacqueline''s clothes for her. However, she did it in a rather rough manner that Yvonne


    couldn''t help but feel slightly sorry for Jacqueline.


    Jacqueline seemed like an object to Sue, being thrown around left and right, even twisting her


    slightly as revenge.


    Yvonne couldn''t help but feel ted as she saw the scene y out and did not stop Sue from


    continuing.


    She knew that Sue was doing it mostly for her, even though Sue disliked the girl as well.


    Therefore, there was no reason for Yvonne to stop her. Instead, Yvonne stood by the door to keep a


    lookout, in case Henry came in and saw what was happening.


    However, the truth was that she had overthought things again. Henry was never going to enter the


    room abruptly. Instead, he knocked on the door and said," Are you done getting her changed?"


    Yvonne shot a nce at Sue.


    Sue nodded her head.


    Yvonne took in a deep breath and replied, "We''re done,e in."


    Henry entered the room with a man covered in a white coat.


    It was a doctor.


    The doctor scanned the room before walking towards the bed and he carried out a checkup on


    Jacqueline.


    After the checkup was done, Henry stood beside the doctor and asked, "How is she?"
