Chapter 1881 Afraid That She’ll Misunderstand
The assistant scratched his head and looked around the conference room.
“Mr. Sheldon was just in here, but he just disappeared in a blink of an eye. He’s not in his office either since I just
came from there.”
The assistant somehow felt that Yvette’s smile was not a real smile, so he dared not joke with her. Yvette’s heart
sank completely.
Her eyes turned gloomy.
The assistant said, “Ms. Quimbey, why don’t you go back to your office and wait. I’ll give Mr. Sheldon a call.”
Yvette refused.
“No need. You can go about your work. I'll just contact him myself.”
The assistant saw no fluctuations in her expression. She did not look like she was angry. He nodded before he
turned around and went about his business.

Lance was not in the conference room or his office, so where would he be?
Her hands that were carrying the coffee were unconsciously sweating.
Yvette pretended as if nothing was wrong and wandered around.
Everyone was used to seeing Yvette’s casual look, so they were not concerned about it.
When she walked to the stairway in a more remote corner, she seemed to hear a deliberately lowered voice
coming from inside.
Her heart trembled. She then lightened her footsteps and went closer.
The stairway was surrounded by miscellaneous items.
Yvette stood there and leaned toward the door. Finally, she heard a voice inside.
Sure enough, it was Lance’s ex-girlfriend, Whitney Locke.
“T know that you have no choice but to agree to that marriage alliance. I really didn’t mean to take your mother’s
money. Your mother was the one who tricked me by saying that she'd agree to our marriage if I went abroad for
two years of further studies. But as soon as I left, you got married. What’s this all about?”
Whitney cried with sorrow.
Yvette heard every word loud and clear.
Her body turned stiff and cold.
She did not know how to describe what she felt at that moment.
Was it betrayal, or disappointment?
It seemed that it was neither, but it also seemed to be both.
Yvette was hoping that this was just a one-man show by Lance’s ex-girlfriend, Whitney.
She hoped that Lance was not there.
As a result, a deep and familiar voice that was breathing sensuously in her ear just this morning came through.
At this moment, it felt so strangely distant.
Lance said, “It doesn’t matter anymore since it’s already irrevocable. You should leave once you finish this project.”
Whitney’s crying voice was trembling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Why? Why can’t you let me stay by your side? I’m supposed to be your wife, not that uneducated trash of a
woman! She has such a bad reputation. She used to be someone’s mistress who destroyed other people's families.
She even ran away with that man. How can you be with such a woman?!” In an instant, Yvette felt like someone
poured a bucket of cold water all over her body. The piercing chill instantly overwhelmed her.
She could not even move a muscle, and her ears were buzzing.
Yvette experienced and suffered that horrible past, and she paid the price for it.
However, now that she heard someone else recounting her unpleasant past to her husband, she suddenly felt a
bone-piercing cold, and she was humiliated to the core.
Yvette thought, ‘Am I so unbearable? Trash?’ Lance’s tone was calm as he said, “It’s already a well-known fact that
she’s my wife, and I know everything about her, so I don’t need others to remind me about it. I accept her past no
matter what it was, and I certainly don’t appreciate others belittling her.”
“Do you like her that much? You were also this protective of me back then! Everyone said that I wasn’t good
enough for you, but you still stood firmly by my side. Didn’t you also love me back then?”
Whitney could not hold back. She tried to use the past to awaken his love for her.
Lance was silent for a moment before he spoke in a low voice.
“T don’t want to talk about the past, and you shouldn’t mention our relationship in front of my wife. I’m afraid that
she’ll misunderstand.”
