Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife

Chapter 571 Stubborn Jacqueline

"What do you mean?" Henry pushed her away and glanced at his sleeve that she just grabbed in disgust.

Jacqueline almost fell to the ground after being pushed away.

"Anna was bullied, Henry. Our little Anna was bullied!" Jacqueline shouted emotionally.

Henry looked at her. "How did you know that Anna was bullied?"

"I saw it. Someone sent me a video and Anna was petrified," Jacqueline said with a distorted expression.

"Video?" Henry squinted.

Joe took a step forward. "Mr. Lancaster, I'll ask the doorkeeper about it."

"Okay." Henry nodded.

Joe went out.

After a while, he came back with a strange expression on his face. "Mr. Lancaster, I've figured it out.

Someone came here yesterday to pass Jacqueline a flash drive. That person passed the flash drive to Hendrix the doorkeeper and said it was under your order. The person also told Hendrix that he must play the content of the flash drive for Jacqueline." "Where’s the flash drive then?" Henry's face was cold a s ice.

When did he order someone to send a flash drive?

"Jacqueline has already destroyed it. However, Hendrix did see the video in the flash drive. It was a video of Anna Lancaster being chased by many monsters, so I think it's obvious who sent the flash

drive." Joe smiled helplessly.

The shadow of Theo's mother could be seen everywhere.

"It's her!" Henry thought of her as well, and he felt a little helpless.

Jacqueline rushed forward again. "Henry, please let m e out. I'll never mess things up again, and TH never do anything that might set a bad example for Anna ever again. Just let me go. I'm very worried about Anna and I want to see how she's doing. She has been bullied, so she must feel extremely helpless."

"Helpless?" Henry took a step aside to avoid her. He said coldly, "You only care about how helpless Anna i s. Why didn't you care about how helpless and

terrified the child must have felt when he was bullied by Anna? Anna was bullied, but she deserved it."

"I don't care. Anna is my daughter and I only want the best for her. I don't care what happened to the other child. Even if Anna bullied him, I’m sure it was because he made Anna upset. Otherwise, why would she bully him instead of other children?" Jacqueline looked at Henry shamelessly. 1

Henry was stunned by her remarks. So were Sue and Joe who were standing behind Henry.

She was shameless, brazen, and she didn’t think it was wrong to spoil her child.

She was not afraid to show it either.

"You're so stubborn!" Henry stared at Jacqueline with a hint of darkness in his eyes. It was as if he wanted t o tear Jacqueline into pieces.

Jacqueline stepped back in fear. "I'm just speaking the truth."

"Whatever. I'm not here to argue about this now. I'm here to ask about the deal you made with Dr. Lucas!" Henry raised the whip in his hand and pointed at Jacqueline.

Jacqueline had only just discovered the whip, and her pupils suddenly shrank. She was emotional as she asked, "Henry, what are you doing with the whip? Are you going to hit me?"

Henry didn't answer her question. He cracked his whip and whipped the floor.

Snap!

The sound of the crack made her heart tremble.

Jacqueline went pale. "Are you really going to hit me?" "Answer me! What deal did you make with Dr. Lucas?"

Henry questioned again.

Jacqueline's eyes were full of guilt. "Henry, what are you talking about? What deal can I make with Dr. Lucas, your psychiatrist?"

"So you’re not going to tell me?" Henry narrowed his eyes.

Jacqueline felt her heart sinking. She took a step back. "Henry, what can I tell you if I didn't even talk to Dr. Lucas!"

A sound broke the silence in the air and a scream could be heard at the same time.

Jacqueline was beaten to the ground by Henry and she curled up in pain.

Joe and Sue went toward the door to give Henry some space.

Jacqueline's body could not stop trembling. Her face was pale and covered in cold sweat as she looked at Henry in shock. "Henry, I cannot believe you actually hit me!"

"Do you think I’ll show you any mercy after you made Dr. Lucas hypnotize and influence me with psychological cues?" Henry looked at her condescendingly like she was an insect.

Jacqueline was in complete shock.

He knew!

He actually knew!

Who told him?

When Henry saw the drastic change on Jacqueline's face, his eyes darkened. "Speak. Tell me everything. How much did you pay to bribe Dr. Lucas? What's the reason for stopping me from regaining my memory? Tell me everything!"

Jacqueline gritted her teeth. "I won't tell you."

If this happened in the past, she would just tell him because it was not a big deal. The worst that could happen was that she had to risk it all.

However, things were different now that Yvonne had returned.

If she told him that the reason she did not want him to regain his memory was that she did not want him to remember his feelings for Yvonne, he would definitely find a way to regain the memories. If Yvonne ever showed up and told him about what she did back then, she would be doomed.

Therefore, she would never tell him!

Henry saw the determination and stubbornness in Jacqueline's eyes.

Henry sneered mockingly before raising the whip again and lashed it at her.

Jacqueline was shocked and she yelled, "Henry, how could you hit me? How could you!"

What about the psychological cues?

Didn't Dr. Lucas say that he wouldn't be able to be

cruel to her?

But what did he just do?

Henry looked at Jacqueline blankly. "Why can't I? This whip can only be used on members of the Lancaster family who made grave mistakes. You're also a part of the Lancaster family, so why can’t I hit you? Since you played these tricks on me, I'll make you pay the price."

After he said that, he proceeded to whip her twice. 1

Jacqueline’s condition had not been well, and her body was much weaker than before because of her mental health.

She could not stand the physical pain, and in the end, she passed out from the pain.

Henry handed the whip back to the person behind him.

Joe immediately went forward to get the whip.

"Wash the blood on it thoroughly. I don't want her dirty bloodstains on Grandpa's whip," Henry said coldly.

Joe nodded. "Yes, sir."All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

After that, he went towards the bathroom to clean the whip.

"Sue, send her back to her room." Henry pointed at Jacqueline who was lying on the ground.

"Okay. Do we need to get a doctor?" Sue asked.

Henry lowered his eyes and said, "No need, as long as she’s not dead."

"Okay." Sue stepped forward to pull Jacqueline from the ground and walked upstairs.

Henry held his head that was beginning to hurt again. He walked to the sofa and sat down while biting his tongue to prevent himself from passing out.

No one could possibly imagine the pain he endured when he whipped Jacqueline.

It was because there was a voice in his head that constantly told him that he was not allowed to do it.

He knew that was the psychological cue Dr. Lucas had given him.

In order to get rid of the psychological cue in his head, he almost bit off the tip of his tongue in order to stay alert and prevent himself from being influenced by the psychological cue. There was still a lingering metallic taste of blood in his mouth.

"Mr. Lancaster, the whip is now clean." As he was lost i n his thoughts, Joe came out of the bathroom.

Henry did not pick up the whip. He got up and said," Send the whip back to the old house and let Frederick keep it. I'm going out."

"Where are you going, Mr. Lancaster? Shall I see you off?" Joe asked.

Henry waved his hand and rejected him. After leaving the Conrad villa, he drove away.

He didn’t know where he was going, so he drove around the streets aimlessly. He kept driving until he realized he was parked at an apartment.

Knock knock.

There was a sudden knock on his car window.

Henry snapped out of his daze and rolled down the window to see Shannon bending over and smiling at him. "It really is you. What are you doing here?"
