Chapter 337 Unusual Lte


    As Yvonne thought about it, she got so excited she couldn’t wait. She turned off the lights in the


    kitchen and hurried upstairs to find Henry in the study.


    When she got to the door of Henry''s study, she could not knock on the door so she could only


    shout, "Henry."


    Henry quickly woke up from his nap when he heard her voice. He looked at the time in the lower


    right corner of theputer and when he saw that it was already one in the morning, his brows


    furrowed." Come in."


    Yvonne carefully put the tray on the ground and reached out to open the door.


    After the door opened, she bent down again to get the tray and walked into his study.


    "Are you hungry?" Yvonne asked with a smile.


    Henry nced at the tray she was holding and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Noodles?"


    "Yes." Yvonne nodded.


    Henry pursed his thin lips. "So you''re still awake at this hour because you were doing this?"


    "Well, I was a little hungry, so I went downstairs to get something to eat and made some for you too.


    Let''s eat. " Yvonne put the tray on his desk and pushed one of the bowls towards him while looking


    at him


    expectantly.


    Henry did feel a little hungry, so he did not refuse either. He picked up the chopsticks she handed


    him and had some noodles.


    "How is it?" Yvonne asked nervously after he started eating.


    Henry raised his gaze and looked at her. "It’s alright."


    "Just alright?" Yvonne was a little unhappy with his answer.


    That was thement she got for the bowl of noodles she tried so hard to make.


    Henry could feel Yvonne''s sadness so he gently put down his chopsticks and said, "It should be


    pretty difficult to make a bowl of noodles taste terrible, right?"


    "Huh?" Yvonne was taken aback for a moment. She did not react until a few secondster when


    she finally understood what he meant, and she broke into a smile.


    She knew what he actually meant was that it tasted good.


    But why couldn''t he just say that instead of talking in circles?


    "Henry, how much longer do you have to work?" Yvonne pulled a chair and sat beside him before


    picking up another pair of chopsticks to feast on the other bowl of noodles. 1


    Henry took a sip of the soup. "It might still take a while so you should go back and rest after eating."


    "I''ll keep youpany," Yvonne said nonchntly.


    Henry was surprised. "Aren''t you going to sleep?"


    "I can''t sleep so let me stay here and keep youpany. I also want to experience the feeling of


    working with you." Yvonne looked at him with eyes gleaming with hope.


    Henryughed with his deep voice, "It’s up to you then. If you can''t hold it, then you should just go


    back t o the room."


    "Okay," Yvonne nodded repeatedly.


    Henry stopped talking and lowered his head to continue eating his noodles quietly.


    When Yvonne saw this, she also shut her mouth and stopped talking.


    For a while, the huge study room was very quiet and only the sound of slurping noodles could be


    heard in the study room.


    After eating the noodles, Yvonne put the bowls and chopsticks aside. She picked up a book from


    Henry''s bookshelf, and sat in an armchair to read it.


    However, she began to yawn after a while, and she was slowly dozing off. 1


    Henry would look up at her asionally and when he saw that she was already drowsy but was still


    holding on to resist going back to her room, he found the situation funny and upsetting at the same


    time.


    He did not ask her to go back to the room because he wanted to see how much longer she could


    last.


    Yvonne ended up disappointing Henry as it was not long before she leaned her head on the arm of


    the chair and fell asleep.


    Her sleeping position was interesting. She curled up into a ball on the chair and even though it


    looked cute, it also made him feel bad for her.


    He didn''t even know if it wasfortable for her to sleep like this!


    "Silly woman, she said she was going to keep mepany but this is how she does it. So


    unprofessional!" Henry whispered and got up to walk towards her. He looked at Yvonne


    condescendingly for a while and proceeded to take off his coat to put it over her body, and then


    picked her up to bring her to the room.


    He did not go back to the study after that.


    The next day, Yvonne was awakened by a phone call. She opened her eyes and checked where


    her phone was before reaching out to get the phone. Without looking at the screen, she held the


    phone to her ear." Hello, who''s this?"


    Her voice was raspy and she was obviously sleepy.


    The person on the other end of the call was quiet for a


    few seconds before speaking slowly, "Yvonne, it''s me."


    "Lyn?" Yvonne was immediately awake when she heard the familiar voice. Her eyes were fully


    open. "It''s so early, what''s the matter?"


    "I..." On the other end of the phone call, Lte was silent again after uttering that one word.


    Yvonne waited for her to continue, but it did not seem like she was going to. She got anxious and


    sat up from the bed. "What the hell is going on? Tell me."


    "Yvonne, I..." Lte''s expression was a little weird as she squeezed her phone tightly.


    Yvonne could not see how odd she was acting, but she could feel that she was a little unusual


    today. She became worried. "Did something happen to Uncle and Aunt?"


    "No no, it’s just..." 1


    "Just what? Tell me." Yvonne scratched her head anxiously.


    Lte bit her lower lip, her eyes were full of struggle and agony. In the end, she looked afar and


    thought about something. She took a deep breath and she seemed determined. "Yvonne, we


    haven''t seen each other for a long time. Want to meet up?”


    "Huh?" Yvonne blinked, "Haven''t seen each other for a long time? But we only met two days ago."


    "Oh, not seeing you for a day feels like eternity," Lteughed.


    Yvonne felt that she had returned to her usual optimistic self so she was relieved. "Since you want


    to see me, then you should’ve said it right from the beginning. Why did you falter? I was so scared I


    thought something was going on."


    There seemed to be a hint of guilt in Lte''s eyes. "Th -then I’m just pulling a prank on you to


    make you nervous and care more about me. Okay now, I know I was wrong, so will you forgive


    me?"


    "All right, I''ll forgive you, but I may not be able to go see you." Yvonne massaged her sore neck.


    Lte was surprised. "Why not?"


    "Because my husband''s grandfather is in poor health and I''m going to the nursing home to take


    care of him"


    so...


    "Not even for a day?" Lte interrupted her, and her tone seemed anxious.


    Yvonne was bbergasted by her reaction. She frowned, "Lyn, you’re really unusual today, are


    you..."


    "No, don''t think too much," Lte interrupted her again, but she sounded like her usual self again."


    What’s unusual about me? I just think we haven''t met i n a few days and I want to see you, but I


    didn’t expect you to be busy."


    "I''m sorry, I’ll invite you to dinner when I’m free?" Yvonne smiled and apologized. 1


    Lte became quiet again, and after a few seconds, she said, "Yvonne, I just remembered I


    haven''t visited your house yet. How about I drop by your house for a visit?"


    "What?" Yvonne was surprised. "Why are you suddenly thinking abouting to my house?"


    "Well, it''s mainly because I have a gift for you. I wanted to give it to you outside but since you can’t


    come out to meet me, I''ll have to pass it to you at your home then. Don''t worry, I won''t hold you up


    to go visit your grandpa," Lte replied.


    Yvonne thought for a while. "Well, I''ll ask my husband then. If he agrees, then you cane over."

    "Aren''t you thedy of the house? Why do you still need to ask your husband?" Lte asked as


    she was puzzled.
