Yvonne heard the concern in his words and felt a little sad. But she quickly took a deep breath and
ignored it. She shook her head slightly and said quietly, "Let's not talk about this anymore. It's all
over the place. Weâd better hurry and get our dinner or we won't be able to return to the company by
nine."
After that, she raised her foot and walked towards the door.
Henry looked at her back with his deep eyes and he pursed his thin lips coldly.
She avoided it and didnât answer his question directly.
Did that mean that she was injured elsewhere besides her hands?
Outside the door, Yvonne saw that Henry hadn't come out yet. She pretended to be angry and
shouted at the door, "Henry, what are you doing in there? Come out quickly."
Henryâs eyes flickered for a moment. He raised his feet and walked towards her. "Coming.â
He was a little gloomy.
He really wanted to know who her enemy was and what had happened in the past.
But they were just partners and he had no right to ask her about these things.
Thinking of this, Henry bit his back teeth slightly and suddenly felt a little dissatisfied with their
current relationship.
He wanted to take things to the next level with her.
And that thought was very strong at this moment.
He could only ask her about her past only when his relationship with her was closer.
It was easy to think about this kind of thing, but it wasn't easy to do it.
He wanted to go a step further with her, but he didnât know her thoughts. Although some of her
words and deeds were deliberately related to him, he wasn't sure what she wanted from him or
whether she really meant that to him.
So he couldn't go any further with her when he was uncertain. Not to mention his current identity, he
was married.
Unless he was single again, he wasnât qualified to talk about taking things to the next level with her.
"Single..." There was a glimmer of light in Henry's eyes.
He thought that he really should divorce Jacqueline. I n the past half month, Jacqueline and Anna
had caused so many problems, which negatively affected the Lancaster family and the Lancaster
Group. This mother and daughter could no longer stay in the Lancaster family.
After all, he married Jacqueline because of a promise had made in the past. Now that he had done
what he promised, it was fine to divorce.
After dinner, Yvonne and the rest left the hotel one after another and said goodbye to each other
outside the hotel. Then, they got in the car and went back to their respective companies to begin the
attack on the Lambert Group and the Wadkins Group.
It was nine o'clock when Yvonne returned to the company.
She went to the Trading Department and Lisa immediately greeted her, "Miss Smith."
Yvonne took off her coat on her shoulders and put it o n her arm. "Has it started?â
Lisa nodded. "Yes."
Yvonne walked up to the Head of the Trading Department and looked at the computer in front of
him. The data on the company fluctuated. She was a little dizzy, but she resisted and didn't move
her eyes. She asked, "Howâs the attack from the other companies? Have you secured the funds?
Can the traders keep up with you?"
The Head of the Trading Department replied briefly and concisely, "The funds are complete and I'm
waiting for the results.â
The corner of Yvonne's mouth twitched. "It seems that the traders from some of these companies
are good."
Dennis was the one who trained all the traders in her Trading Department.
She didn't expect the traders of the other companies t o be able to keep up with her traders. With
their capabilities, she wanted to recruit some people over.
As soon as Lisa saw the brilliant light in Yvonne's eyes, Lisa knew what she was thinking. The
corner of her mouth twitched and she stepped forward with a document. "Miss Smith, the directors
of several other companies have just called to ask if you're back."
"What did they say?" Yvonne asked indifferently with her eyes still staring at the Head of the Trading
Department's computer.
Lisa tilted her gold glasses on her nose bridge and said, "They said that you were too treacherous
to get them to help you out with the funds to attack the Lambert Group and the Wadkins Group's
stocks."
Yvonne grinned, "They finally realized that now."
"Yes. After all, not all businessmen are as treacherous as you, Miss Smith. You haven't paid a single
penny, but you can get the largest company with only a plan and some manpower." Lisa spread her
hands.
Yvonne touched her chin and smiled, "I can't help it. Intelligence produces results. No one asked
them to be brainless."
"No, itâs not that theyâre brainless. How can they be a director if they have no brains? They just canât
compare with you, Miss Smith, the little fox. After all, Sir Smith, the old fox taught you these things."
Lisa made a gesture of admiring her.
Yvonne rolled her eyes towards Lisa. "How dare you call me a little fox and call my father the old
fox!"
Lisa shrugged helplessly, "I'm only telling the truth. Sir Smith is indeed known as the old fox in
foreign business circles."
When Yvonne heard this, she couldn't refute it.
Yup, her father was called the old fox in foreign countries. It was all because of his cunning heart
and the company's troubles that he often predicted, so he was named an old fox.
Since Sir Smith was the one who taught her when she was young, she had the same business style
as him, and she was called the little fox.
As for Sam, who was Sir Smith's son, he hadnât learned his father's ability at all. He behaved
decently i n the market. Therefore, Sir Smith always said that Sam wasnât like his biological son.
"Well, letâs not talk about that. Is Dennisâs office ready?" Yvonne looked at her watch and resumed
her seriousness.
Lisa did the same and nodded. "It's ready."
"That's good. Stay here to monitor everything. I'll head back to the office and call the hospital. Let
me know if there's anything," Yvonne warned.
Lisa answered, "Yes.â
"Alright." Yvonne patted her on the shoulder and walked away in her high heels.
Back at the office, Yvonne took out her mobile phone and called Shane.
Shane seemed to be waiting for her call. He immediately connected with her when the phone rang.
"Yvonne, where are you? Why haven't you come t o the hospital for so long?"
Yvonne pinched her nose bridge wearily. "I'm in the office. I'm busy dealing with the parents of the
children who bullied Theo. I canât come to the hospital tonight. I have to stay up all night, so I'm
calling to check how Theo is doing. Has he calmed down?"
Shane replied, "I see. Don't worry. Theo has calmed down and is now asleep."
Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes were full of tenderness. "That's good, thatâs good..."
Shane asked, "Do you want to see Theo? I'll send you a video.â
Yvonne shook her head. "Not tonight, I'm afraid it'll disturb Theo and make him more nervous.
Perhaps tomorrow. Iâll come to see him when my work is done a t the office, and then transfer him to
your senior."
"Sure." Shane nodded on the other end of the phone.
Yvonne took a sip of the cold coffee on the table. "How
long did it take for Theo to sleep?"
Shane replied, "He calmed down and became very tired after eight o'clock, so he fell asleep real
quick."
Yvonne hummed, "I'll contact my brother tomorrow and ask him to send Theo's psychiatrist over."
Shane said, "Thatâs fine. Dr. Tom is the worldâs top psychiatrist. Heâs not only good for Theo, but he
may b e good for Elliot too."
When Yvonne heard him mention Elliot, she straightened up slightly. "What's wrong with Elliot?"
