The neighbor then closed the door, leaving Yvonne outside in a daze.
Moved abroad?
She absolutely did not believe that the Yaeger family had the ability to do so.
Moreover, she just saw Lynette today.
Yvonne felt a little nervous as she thought about Lynette. She had a feeling that something was going t o happen.
She took her mobile phone out and dialed Lynette's number again.
Unfortunately, Lynette's phone was still off.
Yvonne scrunched her hair irritably and put her phone down. She turned her head to look at the closed door of the Yeager's house and muttered, "Lyn, where did you go?"
"Madam." Luke's voice came from the staircase.
Yvonne lowered her head and looked down. "What's wrong, Luke?"
"Sir called and asked when you would go back," Luke replied.
Yvonne was shocked. "When did he call?" "Just now."
"Let’s go back now," Yvonne replied.
Luke replied as he stood on the stairs, "Okay, I'll go get the car."
Yvonne nodded and flipped the phone to look at the screen. When she saw that there was no call or text from Henry, she felt a little unhappy.
If he wanted to ask her when she would go back, why couldn’t he call her directly instead of calling Luke?
It was strange!
Yvonne could not seem to figure it out so she pouted and convinced herself not to overthink. She put her phone in her bag and slowly went downstairs while holding on to the railing.
An hour later, they arrived at the villa.
Sue came out and quickly approached Yvonne to grab the thermos in her hand. "Madam, where’ve you been? What took you so long?"
"I went to the hospital. What's the matter?" Yvonne was baffled as she looked at Sue-she couldn't understand why she looked so worried.
"What’s the matter?! Sir has been looking for you, and he seems very angry," Sue told her.
Yvonne's heart sank. "Angry? At who?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's you, Madam.
When he got back earlier, he asked where you were. His expression and tone almost scared me to death. I've never seen sir so angry before, madam. Be careful, " Sue said.
When Yvonne heard this, she began to feel uneasy. "H e...why is he angry with me?" i
"I don't know. I tried to ask Sir about it, but he refused t o say anything so I can't help you." Sue looked at her helplessly.
Yvonne forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I'll go in and take a look." She then walked into the villa.
As soon as she entered the living room, she could feel the dark and gloomy atmosphere and it made her feel depressed for no reason.
Henry was sitting on the sofa in the living room with his back facing Yvonne.
Yvonne could not see his expression at the time, but she knew that he was extremely furious from the icy aura he was radiating.
She did not know what she did that made him so angry, and it had been a long time since he had been s o mad at her.
Yvonne did not know how to react and her anxiety made her hesitant to step forward. She stood a few steps behind Henry and said softly, "Henry, I am back."
She knew that sodium nitrite was a chemical ingredient that was harmful to the human body.
Ingesting a small amount would cause symptoms such as vomiting and dizziness, but excessive intake would lead to organ hypoxia and death if the victim did not seek medical attention in time.
The report was about the intake of excessive sodium nitrite, which meant that if the old man did not seek medical treatment in time, he might be...
Yvonne did not dare to think further. She suddenly grabbed the report in her hand tightly, her face turning pale as she explained, "This is impossible. I'd never ever poison Grandpa. Besides, I don’t even have sodium nitrite, and Sue made the chicken soup."
"Yes, I made the soup, and I would never poison the master, sir. Is it a misunderstanding?" Sue said.
Henry clenched his fist tightly, "Misunderstanding? You're telling me it's a misunderstanding but sodium nitrite was found in the chicken soup, and Yvonne delivered the soup. I was the only other person who touched it. Are you saying that I poisoned Grandpa?"
"But I wouldn't either," Yvonne cried.
Henry snarled, "Then tell me, if it weren't for you, how could the sodium nitrite just appear in the soup?"
"I don't know!" Yvonne shook her head violently. "I really don't know what all this is about. I swear that I didn't do it. Grandpa is so kind to me-why would I harm him? What good would it do for me?"
"Yes sir, I don't believe madam wouldn't do such a thing either." Sue stood by Yvonne's side.
Yvonne felt moved as she looked at her. "Sue, thank you for trusting me."
Sue shook her head. "You don't need to thank me-I really do believe that you wouldn't do this."
Yvonne forced a smile as she felt mixed emotions inside her heart.
She was happy that there were people who believed in her innocence.
She was sad that Henry, her own husband, did not want to believe her.
"Henry, believe it or not, I've never done anything to hurt Grandpa. I don’t know why the poison was in the chicken soup, but I can call the police. Before that, I want to know-how Grandpa is doing now?" Yvonne looked at Henry nervously. Her eyes were full of worries for the old man.
