Henry looked at his hands and he couldn't understand why.
At this time, the door of the lounge opened.
Yvonne came in with a new look. "Mr. Lancaster, we can go now."
Henry looked at her in a daze. "You..."
"Huh?" Yvonne tilted her head, confused.
After that, she realized what it was about and she twirled around at the door. "Does it look good?"
She was wearing a formal suit and now she had changed into a red knee-length slip dress, paired
with a pair of silverfish white heels, making her legs look long, straight and fair, which was very
beautiful.
Henry nodded. "Not bad!"
This woman was indeed beautiful.
Of course, the beauty was not all about her looks, but her personality and glowing confidence.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lancaster. Oh, and this." Yvonne held the purse in her hand and
held it up in the air. "This is the purse you just gave me. I'm using it already, as it matches my
dress."
"As long as you like it, Miss Smith." Henry glanced at the bag and felt a little inexplicable pleasure
because she was using it already.
"Of course I like it. Let's go, Mr. Lancaster." Yvonne carried the purse on her shoulder.
Henry nodded and looked at Joe. "You can go back first."
"Okay." Joe nodded.
Henry retracted his gaze and left the lounge with Yvonne. They walked to the elevator.
Shortly after, they left the company building and arrived at the parking spot on the side of the road.
"Letâs go together in a car," Yvonne said.
Henry had no objection and took out his car key. "Letâs use my car then."
"Okay. After you, Driver Lancaster," Yvonne teased.
Henry wanted to laugh, but he held back as he pressed the button on the car key.
After a beep, the car lock was unlocked.
Yvonne walked to the passenger seat. As she walked t o the door and was just about to open it, she
suddenly narrowed her eyes and stopped.
Henry noticed it and immediately looked at her." What's wrong?"
Yvonne retracted her hand from the car door. "It's nothing. It just feels like someoneâs watching me."
And the gaze felt very hostile.
"Watching you?" Henry was startled and he started looking around, but he didn't see anybody
suspicious.
"Well, maybe I was wrong." Yvonne smiled.
Henry raised his chin slightly, and didnât say anything.
Yvonne opened the door to the passenger seat and got in.
Henry also got into the car.
Soon, the car drove away and quickly disappeared into the busy sea of cars. When the car was
almost gone, a black car suddenly rushed out of the road and followed behind them.
In the car, Jacqueline squeezed the steering wheel as she stared at the back of Henryâs car with red
eyes, and her expression was distorted.
She didn't expect to see the shocking scene earlier when she decided to follow Henry.
Ever since she found out that Henry had gotten a female companion to accompany him at the
auction last night, she had a strong sense of disquietness in her heart. She had a feeling that the
existence of that woman would take away some of her most important things. 1
She turned out to be right. The woman actually told Henry about her and accused her. The woman
told him that she said something about leaving Henry alone.
She never said those words. She actually wanted to say that at the time, but the woman hung up
before she could say that.
To her surprise, the woman actually plotted against her, and Henry believed the woman's nonsense.
After he came back and woke up last night, he blamed her for it. How could she accept that? So
she hated the woman and was determined to figure out who she was so that she could teach that
woman a lesson and let her know that she was messing with the wrong person!
But before she checked the womanâs identity, she heard Henry talking to Joe when she went
downstairs this morning. They talked about the woman last night, and she realized that the woman
was not as simple as she thought. She was Shannon, the lady from the Smithâs family. She was
also the director of an energy company.
She heard Henry saying that he would visit the woman to apologize personally, so she decided to
follow him, but she lost them on the way. She ended u p going to the energy company first. After a
while, she saw a woman that shocked her. It was the woman she saw the other day who looked
exactly like Yvonne!
That woman walked into the energy company, and the security called her "director," which meant
that the woman was Shannon!
Everything made sense now!
No wonder Henry would find a female companion and apologize in person-it must be because of
this woman's appearance!
"Yvonne!" Jacqueline snarled the name with her piercing eyes. Her face was so hideous that she
hardly looked like herself, and it felt like she was about to eat someone alive.
She didn't understand because Henry had forgotten the memory of being with Yvonne, and his
feelings for Yvonne. But when he saw a person who looked just like Yvonne, he started approaching
her. Was it because his brain had forgotten about her, but he was still subconsciously in love with
Yvonne?
"What a joke!" Jacqueline slammed on the accelerator as she had the urge to hit the car in front.
But in the end, she held back and took a deep breath. She took out her phone and made a call.
The phone was quickly connected, and her expression suddenly became affectionate. "Liam..."
"Didn't I tell you already that this is pretty difficult to investigate? Just give me more time. Why did
you call so soon?" The man on the other end of the phone spoke in an impatient tone.
There was a hint of irritation in Jacqueline's eyes, and her tone changed. "I told you that Iâm only
giving you a n hour. You're an internationally-renowned jewelry designer, all your clients are wealthy
women, so it shouldn't be that difficult to ask them about the
Smith's family daughter, Shannon. You'd better tell m e what you find, because don't you forget, you
owe this to me!"
"You..." Liam became angry, but in the end he sighed a s if he had accepted his fate, and told her
the information he had gotten so far. "Sorry to disappoint you. The Miss Shannon Smith you
mentioned isnât Mr. Lancasterâs ex-wife. She has always looked like that since she was a child."
"That's impossible!" Jacqueline immediately retorted," How can two people look exactly the same in
this world?"
"But it is what it is. If you don't believe me, you can come abroad and investigate for yourself," Liam
said, frustrated.
Jacqueline was silent.
Liam would never lie to her, or else he wouldn't have told her that she could investigate for herself.
Besides, she still had evidence of Liam's jewels embezzlement, so it was unlikely that Liam would
lie to her.
In other words, Shannon was really just Shannon!
"How is this possible?" Jacqueline's pupils quivered and her face was filled with disbelief. "If sheâs
not Yvonne, then where did Yvonne's body go?"
For the past six years, she always believed that Yvonne was not dead.
And Shannonâs appearance made her think that
Yvonne was back.
But now she found out that Shannon was Shannon and not Yvonne. Then where was Yvonne?
"Who knows? Maybe her body was taken away by wild animals." On the other side of the phone,
Liam said casually, "Anyway, don't contact me anymore. I donât want to get involved in your matters.
Goodbye!"
Liam hung up and Jacqueline threw her phone on the passenger seat angrily. After a long time, she
finally calmed down.
After she calmed down, she narrowed her eyes and parked her car in a parking space on the side
of the road. She then rolled the window down halfway and looked at the man and woman sitting by
the window a t the restaurant opposite her with malicious intent in her eyes.
"Huh?" Yvonne noticed something and stopped talking with Henry. She turned her head and looked
out the window.
"Whatâs wrong?" Henry asked.
