Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 457 Blood Clot In His Brain

She felt like she was contradicting herself.

On one hand, she didn't want Henry to see her, but on the other hand, she hoped that Henry would know that she was still alive, i

But if he knew she was still alive, he would definitely come to see her... 1

This made her wonder what she should do...

"He didn't believe it, because he believes that you're with me. After all, I've been watching him closely. So i f he still doesn't notice anything, he doesn't deserve to be in charge of such a large corporation. However, even when he didn't believe it, there's someone out there who wants to make him believe it." Sam looked a t Yvonne on the hospital bed.

Yvonne opened her lips slightly, ‘Who is it?'

"Jacqueline!" Sam replied.

'Her?' The hate in Yvonne’s heart started rising. 'What did she do?’

"She surprised me. I don’t know who she hired, but she got a dead body to make people believe that it was you. She also bribed the forensic pathologist who inspected the body and got him to manipulate the DNA identification machine, and insisted that the body was you."

With that said, Sam told Yvonne everything that happened.

After Yvonne heard that, she was so furious that she bit her lips.

However, she was certainly more worried about Henry than Jacqueline's lack of remorse.

'Henry will be fine, right?’ Her lip movement was quick, and it showed how anxious she was.

Sam looked at his watch and said, "I’m not sure. On the way back, I sent someone to the hospital where Dr. Summers is to inquire about the situation. We should hear about the results soon."

Just after he said that, his cell phone rang.

Sam raised his eyebrows. "I actually got it right."

'Hurry up!' Yvonne urged.

Sam nodded and took his phone out. He didn’t hide it from her as he accepted the phone call right in front o f her.

"Mr. Smith." The assistant's voice sounded on the phone.

Sam asked, "How is Mr. Lancaster?"

"Mr. Lancaster is fine, but there's a pretty serious problem,” the assistant said.

Sam frowned and after glancing at Yvonne, he asked," What's the problem?"

"Mr. Lancaster has a blood clot in his brain. Dr. Summers said that because of the blood clot, Mr. Lancaster has had a headache for many days.

Moreover, Miss Frey's death triggered him and the blood clot was pressing on his nerve, so that’s why he passed out," the assistant replied.

"Blood clot? How could he have a blood clot in his brain?" Sam was a little puzzled when he heard this.

Yvonne also moved her lips quickly. 'What blood clot?'

Sam saw her but didn't answer her. He waited intently for the assistant's reply.

The assistant scratched his head. "I'm not sure about this. Dr. Summers also asked Mr. Woods for help, but h e didn’t answer."

"Really?" Sam rubbed his temples. "Then is Mr. Lancaster okay now?"

"He's okay. The blood clot in his brain has been broken apart by ultrasonic vibration by Dr. Summers, but he won't wake up for another two days."

"Okay, I see. You can come back now." Sam hung up the phone.

Yvonne asked again, 'Sam, what blood clot? Tell me!’

Sam put down the phone and tucked her underneath the blanket. "It's not a big deal. There's a blood clot in Mr. Lancaster's brain and they don’t know how he got i t. Do you know?"

When Yvonne heard this, she began to ponder.

After thinking for a moment, she pursed her lips. 'I don’t know, I've never seen him with any pain in his head.'

A blood clot in the head was usually caused by a strong impact to the head, which would affect the blood flow and subsequently form blood clots.

However, the formation of blood clots couldn’t have happened in a short period of time. Generally, it would take a long time.

In other words, Henry's head may have been hit a long time ago.

But she didn’t know when Henry hit his head.

"I see. It seems like Mr. Lancaster is good at keeping secrets," Sam sighed.

Yvonne bit her lower lip. 'How’s Henry now?’

"He's okay, but he'll be unconscious for two days," Sam replied. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief, 'That’s good, that's good.' 2

"The reason why Mr. Lancaster passed out was because of the blood clot in his head and the shock he felt when he thought that the body was you. You still don’t want to let him know that you're alive?" Sam looked at her.

Yvonne did not answer him, but she felt uneasy.

It was not that she did not want to tell Henry that she was still alive because she desperately wanted to.

But with her current condition, how could she see him? 3

Even if he did not think it mattered, and that he would not care or despise her, she still could not get past that hurdle in her heart. She simply could not face how ugly she had become after the burn.

Because in this relationship and marriage with him, she had always felt inferior. In terms of family background, ability, personality, appearance, and many more, she never felt she was worthy of such a perfect man. Now that her face was ruined, she felt even less worthy of someone like him.

When Sam noticed Yvonne's silence and the negative aura that was radiating all over her, he knew what she was thinking.

But he did not know how to console or enlighten her. After all, she was the one who got injured and if she could not get past herself, no one else could make her.

'Sam.' Yvonne suddenly said, 'Can you give me some space? I want to take a nap.'

Sam knew that she wanted to calm down so he got up from the chair. "Okay, go to sleep."

After he said that, he turned and left the ward.

When Yvonne heard the door of the ward closing, she could no longer suppress her emotions and she cried

silently.

She cried for her injuries, and for her future with Henry... 3

She did not know what would happen to her and Henry in the future, or what would become of their marriage.

She only knew that she was lost and confused now. She had completely lost her confidence and hope for the future...

Soon, two days had passed.

Yvonne's vocal cords had recovered a lot and she could finally make a little sound, but her voice was hoarse and unpleasant as if she had swallowed sand.

Moreover, the doctor said that her voice would most likely be like that in the future. Even if there was a change, it would not change much.

Yvonne was disappointed, but compared to the burns o n her face, she was already very content that she could at least speak, so she would not really become mute. However, she still could not see, and the gauze o n her eyes had not been removed yet.

"Sam." Yvonne heard Sam's footsteps and hurriedly asked, "Is Henry awake?"

In the past two days, apart from her injuries, she was mostly concerned about Henry. 1

Now that two days had passed, she could not wait to find out how he was and if he had awakened.

Sam seemed to have expected her to ask this question so he was not surprised at all. "I just got the news that Mr. Lancaster is already awake."

Yvonne was overjoyed, "That's great."

"Do you want to hear his voice?" Sam took out his phone and shook it.

Yvonne instantly understood what he meant and nodded, "Yes!"

"Okay, I'll call Mr. Lancaster to send him my regards," Sam said as he dialed Henry's number.

Yvonne held her breath and waited quietly.

Soon, the call was answered, but instead of Henry answering the call, it was Joe.

"Mr. Smith?" Joe squinted his eyes in confusion, "May I ask why are you calling Mr. Lancaster?"

Sam watched Yvonne as he replied to Joe, "I heard that Mr. Lancaster is already awake, so I wanted to send my regards to him. Where is he?"

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Smith. Mr. Lancaster went for another checkup. Would you like to call back later?" Joe suggested.

The corner of Sam's mouth twitched. "Bad timing?"
