Chapter 1890: Change Your Last Name to Locke

Fiona said, “Bring Yvette home for dinner tomorrow.” Lance’s mind was a mess.

“I’’m busy.”

His tone was harsh, and Fiona could hear it.She sneered.

“What, did that woman make up some nonsense, which made you think that I’m the devil who broke
you up?”

Lance pursed his lips. “Mom…”

“Don’t call me mom! If you don’t come back tomorrow with Yvette, just change your last name to
Locke!”

That was Whitney’s last name.

Fiona then hung up the phone ruthlessly.

She became suspicious because of Mrs. Sally’s phone call, which made her investigate the company.
There were rumors going around the company about Lance and Whitney having an affair in the
stairway that day.

Fiona did not believe that Lance would have an extramarital affair and do such a shameless thing. The
only possibility was that Whitney deliberately made a show of it to others so that people would
misunderstand their relationship. Fiona had seen such tactics long ago.

Fiona was the only one who could explain what happened back then.

Initially, Fiona thought that Lance and Yvette only had a small disagreement. Who knew that Whitney
Locke suddenly appeared? That woman certainly could not be underestimated.



Lance hung up the phone and felt a headache for a moment.

He did not go to the guest room and only lay on the living room sofa without a hint of sleepiness. When
the day dawned, he only took a nap fora while.

However, he was soon woken up.

The maid got up early in the morning to make breakfast.

Not long after, Yvette also woke up and washed up.

Lance went to the dressing room to get changed. When he walked out, he also saw Yvette walking out
of the bedroom.

He paused in his footsteps.

Yvette smiled. “Good morning.”

Lance saw her nonchalant attitude and felt inexplicably irritated.

Yvette turned around and went to the table to eat breakfast. She even praised Mrs. Sally’s delicious
seafood soup, which made Mrs. Sally smile brightly.

When it was almost time for work, Lance looked at his watch and said, “Let’s head to the office.” He
was talking to Yvette.

Yvette took a tissue and wiped her hands before she stood up and turned around to get her bag. The
two of them got into the car in silence and did not speak the entire journey.

The feeling of being so close yet so distant made then feel powerless.



The car finally parked in the underground garage. Yvette pushed the door open to get out of the car,
but it did not budge.

She looked back at Lance with slightly cold eyes. Lance loosened his collar, and his throat moved. “Do
you plan to treat me like this forever?”

This indifference and detachment made them feel like strangers.

They clearly should not be like this since they used to be so close.

Lance looked at Yvette’s expression.

Yvette pursed her lips and laughed. Her tone was a little erratic and bewildered.

“We might not even be together forever,” she said.

She did not sound like she was joking.

Lance instantly froze. His face darkened.

He stared at her and knew what she meant by that, which made his heart collapse in an instant.
Acertain place seemed to disappear without warning.

Lance suddenly grabbed Yvette’s wrist. “What did you say?! What do you mean by that?”

Yvette struggled, but when she could not break free, she just gave up.

She laughed.

“Nothing, I’m just saying it casually.”

She looked indifferent as if she did not take what she just said to heart at all.



Lance’s heart trembled for a moment. When he noticed that her wrist was red from his grasp, he slowly
loosened his grip, but he did not let go of her.

He gently rubbed her wrist as he spoke in the gentlest tone possible.

“I’ve already told them to fire her, so she won’t show up in the office again today or in the future. I don’t
care whether it’s a misunderstanding that she went abroad. I’m already married to you, so I have a
responsibility to you and our marriage. I’ll never betray you.”
