Noble Husband At the Door

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. I asked a friend to investigate for me but 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 I 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 time will 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 notify me tomorrow."

"Let me go 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 t o 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 t o 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 I have one useless wimp at home? Do we have to

add another one? Do you know how badly my family speaks ill of me behind 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 same model as soon as they bought one.

"Also, I've opened the wrong car door once. Both of these are new cars without a license. I 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 came looking for me again today. She said she wants to fight with me over 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? I 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."
