Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 723 Mandy Lovett Stirring Up Trouble

"He’s not coming back. He has a social gathering tonight, and Elliot probably has it too," Yvonne shook her head and replied.

Sue suddenly understood the situation and raised her chin, indicating that she understood. She didn’t ask anymore.

Theo didn't ask anymore either. He started eating obediently.

Sue was standing aside and as she looked at the mother and the son, she suddenly thought of something and patted her forehead. "That’s right, madam. I want to tell you something."

"What’s the matter?" Yvonne looked up at her.

Sue’s face sank as she said, "It’s about that woman, Mandy Lovett."

"Her?" Yvonne raised her eyebrows. "Don’t tell me she came here again this afternoon, did she?" 1

"She did. She's so thick-skinned," Sue said with her lips curled.

Yvonne narrowed her eyes and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.

"I just met her when I was leaving in the morning. What is she doing here again?"

"I don't know about that. I heard from the security guard. She went around the family residence and looked around. Nobody knew what she was doing. She then left after a while," Sue replied with a shrug.

Yvonne pursed her lips. "She went around the family residence. She must be plotting something. Sue, get someone to watch her."

"I know, I've already ordered someone to do so,” Sue replied.

Yvonne hummed and said nothing.

After the meal, she took Theo back to the room and played with him for a while. After putting him to sleep, she returned to her and Henry's room.

It was already ten o'clock at night and Henry had not returned yet.

Yvonne didn’t know how much longer she had to wait, and it was inconvenient to call and ask, so she read while waiting.

If she couldn't wait till Henry came back, she would go to sleep by herself.

However, not too long after waiting, Yvonne's cell phone suddenly rang.

Yvonne put down the book in her hand and picked up her cell phone to take a look. When she saw the caller I D on it, she quickly answered, "Hey, darling."

Henry's low and hoarse voice sounded, "Not asleep

yet?"

Yvonne nodded. "No, are you coming back soon?"

"No, it's still early. Hayden and I will have a meeting with the client later. I'm afraid it’s going to be midnight by the time I come back, so I called you to let you know not to wait for me and go to bed early." Henry's tone was slightly apologetic when he said that.

Although Yvonne was a little disappointed, she still understood him.

After all, as the chairman of such a large company, situations like this were quite normal.

"Okay, I get it. I won't wait for you then.” Yvonne smiled.

Henry squeezed the bridge of his nose tiredly. "Well, g o to bed early if you’re sleepy. Goodnight."

"Goodnight." Yvonne tugged at the corners of her mouth.

At the end of the call, she put the phone on the bed and massaged her shoulders. She left a dim yellow light on so that when Henry came back, he could still see. She then lay down and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, the door of the room opened and Henry came back with a very tired expression.

He knew that Yvonne was asleep, so his movements were very small and he was light-handed when walking and closing the door. He didn't make much movement as he was afraid of waking her up. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

He drank a lot of wine and his handsome face was a little flushed. His eyes were a little hazy and his breathing was heavy.

When he walked to the bed, he looked down at the sleeping woman on the bed. He then leaned down and fell on the bed without taking off his clothes. He put his arms around her and closed his eyes.

Yvonne could smell alcohol in her sleep and was awakened. She thought it was a dream, but she was surprised that the dream was so vivid.

In the end, she opened her eyes and saw the man next to her. Only then, she realized that she was not dreaming, and what she smelled was actually alcohol.

Yvonne sighed helplessly as she looked at the man's sleeping face begrudgingly.

She had already told him to drink less, yet he still ended up drinking so much. He fell asleep immediately after he came back without taking off his clothes.

"I really don’t know what to do with you." Yvonne had no choice so after she murmured, she got up and took off Henry’s coat, tie, and shirt for him so that he could sleep more comfortably.

But that was not enough. After that, she went to the bathroom to fetch a bucket of water and wiped his face with a towel.

That way, he was clean and refreshed. He could then sleep well, and she would not feel the overbearing smell of alcohol on him.

After doing that, Yvonne checked the time and it was only three o'clock in the morning, which was still early.

She then climbed into bed again and into Henry's arms before falling asleep.

When Henry woke up, it was already noon the next day.

He sat up and found that his upper body was naked. His pupils suddenly shrank.

But the next second, after he looked around his surroundings clearly, his tense expression suddenly relaxed.

Fortunately, he was at home.

He thought last night...

Without thinking about it any further, Henry rubbed his swollen temples. He drank a lot last night. His head still felt dizzy and painful now, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Just as Henry was rubbing his head, Yvonne came in from the outside and saw that he had gotten up. There was joy in her eyes. "You woke up."

Henry heard her voice and put his hand down. "I'm awake. What time is it?"

Yvonne looked at the phone. "It's eleven o'clock."

Henry frowned.

He didn't expect to wake up so late after falling asleep last night.

Yvonne walked over and stopped in front of him as she looked down at him. "Feeling sick?"

Henry's thin lips slightly opened. "My head is a little dizzy."

"You deserve it!" Yvonne snorted mercilessly.

Henry was taken aback.

What did she just say? He deserved it?

She didn't feel sorry for him, nor did she comfort him. She didn't even give him a massage. She actually told him that he deserved it!

Yvonne folded her arms and said, "When I left yesterday, I told you to drink less. What happened? Did you listen to me?"

Henry's mouth twitched. "I did."

"Yet you still got drunk after listening to me?" Yvonne glared at him.

Henry smiled lowly. "We had Louis XIII."

Yvonne was startled when she heard that.

She knew about Louis XIII, which was the hardest liquor among all the famous liquors and would cause the worst aftereffect.

If that was the case, he probably did not drink much after all.

However, she could not just let him go.

"Even if you didn't drink much, you still got drunk. If you’re drunk, it means you drank a lot. Tell me, what are you going to do about it?" Yvonne sneered.

Henry's eyes flickered-he then grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms in her surprise.

"How about I give you kisses to make up for this?" Henry looked down at the woman in his arms.

Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Who wants your kisses..."

Before she could finish speaking, there was suddenly a knock on the door. "Sir and madam, are you there?"

It was Sue.

Henry frowned his eyebrows for a second as he was displeased. He was obviously unhappy that Sue interrupted them all of a sudden.

Yvonne didn’t care if Henry was unhappy or not. She got out of his arms and shouted at the door, "Yes, come in."

Sue heard her voice and opened the door to go in.

When she saw the two of them sitting by the bed, she called out, "Sir, madam."

"Sue, what's the matter?" Yvonne asked with a serious tone when she saw that Sue's expression was a little

unusual.

Henry did not speak-he was putting on his clothes.

He could not just stay naked.

Sue clenched her fists and replied angrily, "It's Mandy Lovett."

"What's wrong with her?" Yvonne narrowed her eyes instantly.

Henry also stopped for a while as he was buttoning his shirt. He looked at Sue. 1

Sue said angrily, "She's stirring up trouble. She’s spreading bad rumors about you on the internet, madam." 3

"What? Rumors?" Yvonne was surprised.

"Yes!" Sue nodded heavily.

Henry's expression was cold and his voice sank." What rumors did she spread?" 1

"It's about madam bullying her. Oh, I can't really explain it. Madam, sir, you can watch it online. It’s already all over the internet." Sue pointed at the cell phone.
