Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 41

Yvonne rolled her eyes. How was she supposed to be happy when others misunderstood her? She felt suffocated

because of it.

"By the way, there's a group of people causing lots of trouble to the Sue family recently and are even creating a

lot of problems at the construction site. | asked a friend to investigate forbut there were no findings, yet

Harvey suddenly pretended to be kind and give us his findings. During the meeting, he said that he found out

who did it and | was told to have a discussion with them tomorrow. Do you think there's something fishy about

this?" Yvonne asked, and her instinct told her that there must be a problem with the situation. Harvey was right.

Her attitude was fortunate not to harm her, how could it help her.

Samuel frowned. He heard about it too and told Johann to find out more. Johann even arrested two people and

tortured them for information, but to no avail. The other party obviously did a good job of keeping everything

under wraps, so there was no way Harvey would know anything.

"What twill you be meeting the person tomorrow?" Samuel asked. Something was clearly fishy about it and

he did not feel at ease to let Yvonne go alone.

"I don't know yet. Harvey will notifytomorrow."

"Letgo with you and be your assistant tomorrow,"

Samuel said.

Back home, Samuel cooked dinner as usual. Although he was previously always alone in the kitchen, Yvonne

recently went in more often to help out a little and perhaps try her hand at frying a dish. Yvonne's cooking

usually never made it to the table though, because it was very unsightly. It was a big black mess and no one

could not see what the dish was.

Back in the living room, Lydia asked Godfrey," Godfrey, haven't you noticed that our daughter has been acting a

bit different recently?"

Godfrey saw that too. Yvonne never went to the kitchen before and her relationship with Samuel was like that of

a stranger. However, she recently learned to help Samuel and their topics of conversation increased significantly

too.

"Maybe our daughter is slowly accepting him," Godfrey said.

That was the answer that Lydia was most reluctant to hear. He pinched Godfrey and said, "Accept, my foot! You

can't possibly allow our daughter to stay with that wimp her entire life?"

Godfrey himself was a wimp, so he was not qualified to comment on Samuel. From Godfrey's point of view, the

situation was a good thing because there would be no divorce, and the old lady would thus not be upset about it.

"Does it matter? Our daughter is finally showing her prospects now and it doesn't matter if we raise a wimp at

home," Godfrey said indifferently.

Lydia glared at Godfrey and said, "Isn't enough that | have one useless wimp at home? Do we have to add

another one? Do you know how badly my family speaks ill ofbehind my back?"

Godfrey shifted in his seat awkwardly and said, "Your mother's family are all gossipy women. Just don't listen to

what they say. Now that Yvonne's on the rise, are you going to force her to divorce? Do you think the old lady will

let us go if she finds out about this?"

Lydia sighed. The biggest obstacle to everything was the old lady-if she did not agree, no one would dare to call

the shots.

Moreover, Yvonne finally gained a position at the company. Divorce at that juncture was clearly impossible.

"One year. I'll see what he can do in one year," Lydia said.

"One year?" Godfrey looked at Lydia suspiciously.

"Nothing. It's nothing serious," Lydia said disdainfully. She did not think that Samuel could accomplish anything

in a year. He was still doing housework at home, in addition to fetching Yvonne to and from work every day. Lydia

did not believe that he could change his fortunes just by being a driver.

"By the way, there's a new Audi downstairs. A new one too. Do you know who owns it? It's parked with us." Lydia

was puzzled. She did not see anyone buy a new car and it was puzzling that someone would buy the smodel

as soon as they bought one.

"Also, I've opened the wrong car door once. Both of these are new cars without a license. | was so confused, and

I have no idea who owns it."

Lydia simply asked casually without digging further into it.

Samuel was the first to take a bath after dinner. He then filled the bathtub with water, since Yvonne had been

working hard recently and always took a bubble bath to unwind.

Barely half an hour after laying on his floor mattress, Yvonne returned to the room after finishing her bath.

The snow-white bath towel wrapped her body like a tube-top dress. On her skin were droplets of clear water that

were visible to the naked eye, like a lotus flower breaking the surface of the water.

Samuel looked down and shied away. The season had just entered midsummer and it was another difficult day.

"Linda clooking foragain today. She said she wants to fight withover you. What do you think about

it?" Yvonne laid on the bed and said to Samuel after applying her facial mask.

Samuel did not know whether to laugh or cry. He never thought that his unintentional actions would result in

such consequences. Linda's words were

merely a joke, of course.

"She's just joking," Samuel said.

"Of course, she's joking. Are you hoping that it's true?" Yvonne's tone changed distinctly.

Samuel smiled and said, "The weather seems to have turned cold recently." "Really? | think it's still really hot.

You can sleep on the sofa if you feel cold," Yvonne said.

Samuel looked at those beautiful legs on the bed and realized that he would have to continue mulling over that

missed opportunity for a long time. He changed the subject and said, "I suspect that the Sue family's recent

troubles are related to Harvey."

The fact that Johann was unsuccessful in his attempt to investigate that matter, coupled with Harvey's apparent

knowledge of the culprit, was a big red flag. After pondering over it, Samuel felt that the only possibility was that

Harvey masterminded the entire situation.

"No, even though he's unhappy with me, he won't do anything to harm the Sue family. He'll be done for if

Grandma found out," Yvonne remarked in surprise.

Samuel smiled coldly and said, "We'll know tomorrow whether that's actually the case."
