But for whatever reason, it was none of his business.
As a lawyer, it was his duty to be conscientious.
The lawyer asked, "Okay, Mr. Lancaster. Do you have anything else to add?"
Henry waved his hand. âNo, you may leave for the notarization."
"Okay." The lawyer closed his notebook, stood up, and kept his recorder and camera before he left
the study room.
Henry was left alone in the study room.
After staying for a while, Henry went back to his room.
He hadn't rested much for the past two days and his head felt heavy now.
In the evening, Henry went to the hospital again after resting for a few hours.
He found Shane and asked for his permission to visit Yvonne in the ward.
Shane resolutely refused to agree.
However, Henry was very firm and he refused to back down.
In the end, Shane compromised and granted him ten minutes for the visit.
Henry put on the protective clothing and entered Yvonneâs ward.
Yvonne was still sober at the moment. She tried to open her eyes with all her strength when she
heard the footsteps.
She asked weakly, "Are you going to sterilize again?"
Henry felt heartbroken listening to her voice that was weaker than yesterday.
Henry parted his lips lightly. "It's me."
Hearing his voice, Yvonne opened her eyes in disbelief and looked at him. "Henry?"
"Yes." Henry nodded and stopped by the hospital bed.
Yvonne's body trembled slightly. "Henry, are you crazy? What are you doing here? Get out of here
now!"
Henry looked at her with serious eyes. "I'm not leaving, n
Yvonne was very angry at the moment. "What are you doing here if you don't go out? Do you know
it's dangerous? You werenât allowed to come in here a long time ago, but you're here now. Did you
come in without permission?"
"No." Henry replied, "Shane agreed."
Yvonne didn't believe him. "No way. How could he agree to let you in? He's a doctor. He knows that
this is dangerous. How could he let you in?"
Henry sat down beside the bed. "Don't worry, I didn't lie to you."
Yvonne became more agitated when she saw him sitting down instead of leaving. "Henry, what do
you want to do? I'm begging you. Please go out and donât stay here!"
She really didn't want him here.
She was really afraid that he would be infected.
Henry looked at Yvonne who was anxiously worried. His thin lips behind the mask were hooked.
"It's okay. I'm here. Besides meeting you, I wanted to tell you something more important."
Henry looked at Yvonne who was anxious and worried, twitching his mouth behind the mask. "Itâs
okay. Besides wanting to see you, more importantly, Iâm here to tell you one thing." 2
"What's the matter?" Yvonne looked at him.
Henry took her hand and put it to his ear. 1
Upon seeing his action, her heart suddenly jumped. " Henry, what are you doing?"
He wasn't going to take off his mask, was he?
However, it turned out she was right.
Henry took off his mask.
Yvonne's pupils shrunk to the size of a needle. Her face changed and her voice became sharp.
"Henry, you're crazy! Why are you taking off your mask? Do you know what you're doing now?
You're looking for death. You're looking for death!"
There was a faint smile on Henry's stern face. "I know."
Yvonne yelled and urged him, "Why are you still doing this if you know? Quickly put on your mask
and go out for disinfection and inspection!"
Henry stood still and said, "I won't leave. Hear me out, this is what I want to tell you. I can't bear to
see you suffer alone, so I'll accompany you. Even if the vaccine couldn't be produced in time, I'll die
with you."
Yvonne roared with her eyes popping out. "Crazy.
You're crazy, Henry. You're a lunatic!"
Henry knew that she was so afraid that he would be infected with the virus, so he didn't think that
she was ugly at all. Instead, he thought she was beautiful.
Henry smiled. "I'm crazy. From the moment you were infected with the virus, I was crazy. I said that
I can't bear to see you suffer, but I can't help you, so I can only accompany you."
Yvonne's eyes were red and her tears kept rolling down. "Why are you doing this? The world is so
beautiful. Why do you want to die this way?"
Henry replied without hesitation, "Because I love you!"
Yvonne was taken aback and she cried even harder. " Love me? But I'm not touched at all. I don't
think that you're great even when you do this. I just think that you're stupid. Why? Do you want me
to be charged with killing you?"
Henry knew that she said this to provoke him.
She wanted to make him angry and leave the ward to find Shane for disinfection.
But he had made up his mind. He wouldn't do that.
"Please stop, Yvonne. I know what you're trying to do, but don't you think it's too late?" Henry
looked at the skinny woman on the bed.
The woman looked slightly startled. "Too late?"
Henry said, "Yes, you're no longer in the early stage, but in the middle stage. The virus in your body
has become stronger. Do you think I won't inhale the virus the moment I take off the mask? That is
to say, I may have been infected now, so it won't help even if I go for disinfection now."
He spoke in a light tone and wasn't nervous about being infected with the virus.
It was as if being infected with the virus was just a trivial matter.
But Yvonne was completely dumbfounded. Her mind was blank and she took a long time to come
back to reality. Her voice was hoarse. "Henry, is it worth it?"
Henry didn't even think about it and answered directly, "It's worth it!"
Yvonne had nothing to say. Her last bit of persistence completely collapsed and her heart had
completely softened.
"You're really..." she cried, not knowing what to say.
Henry took her hand. "Now that weâre infected with the virus, I can touch you. You won't drive me
away, right?"
Yvonne moved her lips a few times and burst into a smile. While she was smiling, tears started
streaming down.
Yvonne said in a broken voice, "Stupid, idiot, moron, fool. How can there be such a person in this
world whoâs not afraid of death?"
She had accepted him completely and finally faced her feelings.
He could die for her. What else was she holding onto?
Henry lowered his head and put his forehead against Yvonne's. His voice was gentle and full of
affection." Everyone is afraid of death. I'm afraid too, but if I'm dying with you, then I'm not afraid
anymore. What's more, I've sworn that I'll never leave you again after I left you six years ago, so no
matter where you are, I'll b e there."
Yvonne couldnât stop crying, "What about Theo? What i s he going to do if you do this? He's losing
his mother. Do you want him to lose his father as well?"
Henry said, "I believe our son will understand. He's very smart. He's just shut himself off for now,
but he knows everything about the outside world. Furthermore, I made full preparations before
coming here."
Yvonne sobbed, "Preparations?â
Henry replied, "Yes, I left everything to Theo, which means I'm penniless now. The richest man in
our family is our son. Besides, there's Hayden. He's Theo's uncle. I believe he'll take good care of
Theo in the future."
Yvonne raised her arm in difficulty and patted him.' Have you asked Theo if this is what he wants?"
These were just his arrangements.
