My Billionaire Mom

Chapter 143

"Eh?"

Yvette, who had just taken a sip of water, saw that the rich man had actually deleted a message. What was the message he sent, and why did he delete it?

She felt a little strange. She happened to be drinking water just now so she did not see what the message he had deleted was. The rich man was online but how could he not accept the money?

"Thank you for helping me before," Yvette replied.

Chuck broke out in a cold sweat when he read the message. Fortunately, he had deleted it in time. Otherwise, the word "Wifey" would have been enough for Yvette to know that the rich man was him.

Thank goodness!

Chuck sighed. The moment he sent out the message just now, he was thinking if it was a good idea to admit his mistakes and tell her the truth. However...he hesitated: how was he going to tell her?

Yvette's character was different from Lara Jean's. What would he do if Yvette thought that he was lying to her and playing with her feelings?

Chuck admitted that he had lied to her, but he had no choice at that time. When He only added her on WeChat at that time when she was almost tricked into having sex with some random person in the hotel. Chuck just gave her his contact to make sure if she was ok.

He stared at his message for a long time but he did not reply. Forget it, he thought. He hoped that Yvette would slowly forget the rich man who once managed to help her in a crisis.

Yvette looked at the phone screen intently. Was the rich man not online? Why wasn't he accepting the money nor replying to her?

She felt that this was fishy.

Who on earth could this person be? She was curious to know the identity of the person helping her constantly.

In fact, she really wanted to know who this person was. She had invited him to meet her twice before, but he did not appear.

Those few times, she was quite disappointed.

But now...

Yvette shook her head and drove to the plaza, ready to head to the company. She had to make money as soon as possible or she would have trouble paying back the interest every month.

Yvette knew that she would have to face terrible consequences if she couldn't pay the loan sharks back in time.

When passing by Yolanda Lane's office, Yvette really wanted to go in and see if Chuck was doing anything with Yolanda, but she did not muster up the courage to go in. What if they were really doing it?

Then...

Yvette sighed and returned to her company. She began to concentrate on her company's affairs but she couldn't wipe the image of her husband playing around with someone else from her mind. She was restless and kept on losing concentration.

Just then, her phone suddenly rang. Yvette was surprised. Could it be her hubby Chuck?

But...

When she saw that it was Queenie Carson's, she was a little disappointed. When she answered the phone, Queenie's crying voice could be heard clearly, "Teacher Jordan..."

Yvette stood up immediately...

......

A minute later, Yvette ran out of the company looking extremely anxious.

Right at that moment, Chuck and Yolanda were talking about something in the corridor, seemingly discussing their work. After Yvette saw them, she sighed and was prepared to leave immediately. However, she noticed that there was no ambiguous behavior going on between Chuck and Yolanda. It seemed that they were really just talking about the plaza's business.

Looking at Chuck from such a distance, she realized that he had really changed a lot. He looked more calm and composed when he spoke, and every action he took looked elegant. It was a pity that the person standing beside him was the pretty Yolanda Lane and not her.

Yvette hesitated for a moment before walking over. "Chuck..."

Chuck turned his head and looked at Yvette curiously. "What's wrong?"

In fact, he was a bit nervous. Did Yvette come to find him because of that message?

"Are you...free?" Yvette asked carefully.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Seeing her serious look, Chuck agreed immediately but was secretly relieved that his secret was still safe.

"Well, I'll leave you two first." Yolanda smiled and returned to her office.

Yvette watched as she left and shifted her position uncomfortably. She hesitated a while before asking, "Was what Lara said really true?"

"What's wrong, wifey?" said Chuck.

"Queenie called me just now and told me that something had happened, so I..." Yvette trailed off.

"Well, let's go then." Chuck nodded. In fact, when Queenie left yesterday, Chuck had a feeling that something had happened. Otherwise, Yvette would not have given Queenie ten thousand dollars. Besides, the test was tomorrow. If she didn't return tomorrow, it was guaranteed that she was not coming back.

However, Quennie had called Yvette instead of him. She was simply trying to tell him that she did not want him to do anything for her just because of what happened that night. Chuck sighed.

She was too innocent.

"Will it disturb your work?" asked Yvette.

"No, it won't," Chuck replied.

"Okay,"

The two of them immediately went downstairs. When they arrived at the parking lot, Yvette switched on the navigation app on her phone and both of them went to Queenie's house.

After the two of them left, Zelda arrived to find Chuck. She was here to take a look at the stores. However, when she arrived at Yolanda's office, she did not see him. So she asked, "Where's Chuck?"

"He went out with Teacher Jordan," Yolanda said. "Are you here to check out the stores? I'll lead the way." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Okay." Zelda nodded, feeling a little disappointed. She followed Yolanda to the store.

She was considering whether to open her restaurant here. After all, it would probably be a bit awkward for them to meet constantly.

However, she had taken a fancy to this place, so she still wanted to come and take a look. If the place was fine, she wouldn't mind opening her restaurant here since she was here to make money and not to do something else. Yet, she remained unconvinced by her own thoughts: was she purely trying to do business here?

If not, why would she be disappointed when she did not see Chuck?

She gave a deep heave. She did not give herself to Chuck or let him touch her body. Even though she helped him twice, they did not have much physical contact in the process, so how could she fall for him?

......

On the way, Yvette elaborated on what had happened to Queenie's family in detail. Queenie had a rough life. Her parents died a few years back, leaving her younger sister and her. They lived in her aunt's house, and they had been treated poorly since young.

Queenie could only go to school because she begged her aunt on her knees and promised to repay her twofold after she graduated and started working. While in college, Queenie had never asked her aunt for any living expenses and paid for everything using her hard-earned cash from part-time jobs.

In spite of this, a few days ago, Queenie's aunt called and suddenly asked her to stop studying. She wanted Queenie to come back and get married because someone already had their eye on her. Moreover, her aunt had even received the dowry. Queenie refused to return.

However, her sister was still in her aunt's house. She threatened Queenie that she would beat her sister to death if Queenie did not come back. Queenie had always loved her sister dearly, so how could she bear to leave her sister in danger?

Therefore, Yvette gave her 10,000 dollars to return the dowry, but it was not enough. Something else came up and she had no choice but to call Yvette for help...

Upon hearing this, Chuck was also a little annoyed. He had expected Queenie to have bad memories of her family, but he never expected it to be this bad!

Chuck sighed. Queenie was too pitiful.

Queenie was hiding and looking around anxiously at the intersection of the road. She really had no choice but to call Yvette after sneaking out. She was just 19 and was in her first year of college, so she did not want to get married like this, otherwise, her life would be ruined.

Despite this...

A mean-looking woman suddenly appeared behind Queenie and tugged onto her hair. Queenie fell onto the ground.

She burst into tears and cried, "Auntie, please stop, it hurts..."

The woman raised her hand and slapped her, "You should be thankful that Master Cady has his eye on you! And yet you still refuse the marriage and want to return the dowry? No way!"

"Auntie, please don't do this to me. I still want to study in college, I really do..." Queenie pleaded bitterly.

However, the woman slapped her again. "Shut up! I gave you a home, good food, and warm clothes. Yet, you refuse my arrangement for your marriage and your future? You're just as ungrateful as your parents!"

"Auntie, please don't talk bad about my parents..." said Queenie.

"Your mother was a b*tch, and your father was an even bigger b*stard. The reason why I asked you to marry Master Cady is to give you a new chance at life. Don't be as ungrateful as your parents! Get back now!" The woman grabbed Queenie by the hair and dragged her back. She cried and begged but the woman maintained a firm grip and refused to let her go...

Queenie looked at the intersection in the distance tearfully. "Teacher," she thought, "please come and save me."
