My Billionaire Mom

Chapter 322

Yvette sighed. It appeared to be true and Chuck's expression alone gave her the confirmation to her question. Once upon a time, Yvette would've gotten angry, but now, she did not. She and Chuck had no future after all, so how could she constrain him?

"Honey, I..." Chuck was anxious. He could see the clues in Yvette's eyes. How did she find out about them?

He knew that Queenie would not expose it. Chuck was confused as to who else it could be. Was it Yvette's sixth sense?

Or, maybe... Chuck suddenly thought of something. Was Yvette awake when he and Queenie were doing it in the room for the first time?

Did she simply not say anything at that time?

When Chuck had this thought, he felt that it was not possible. Yvette was not that shrewd.

"It's okay, Hubby. Let's go upstairs," Yvette shook her head and dismissed the matter. She saw that Queenie was no longer upstairs. Besides, she had hit her the last time they met.

Chuck wanted to confess his wrongdoing, but how could he possibly do that? Was he going to admit that Queenie had pleasured him when Yvette was asleep in the room? If he did, Yvette would definitely be shocked and very furious.

"Honey, I..." Chuck struggled to find his words. He wondered if Yvette would get angry.

"Hubby, are you going to admit something to me?" Yvette stared at Chuck and asked knowingly.

"I..." Chuck hesitated.

"You have trouble telling me?" Yvette's eyes were full of curiosity as she asked again.

Chuck braced himself and nodded. The words were stuck in his throat. For the first time he and Queenie did in the room, it was difficult for him to explain. However, it was a misunderstanding for the second time they did it in the bathroom... it truly was a misunderstanding. But he had indeed done something with Queenie in the end. They were already halfway through, so there was nothing he could do at that time.

"Yes," Chuck said after holding back for a long time. If Yvette really wanted to know, Chuck would be honest.

"It's okay, Hubby, I'm no longer how I was before. I will not hold you up," Yvette said gently. She knew that they would definitely become enemies in the future.

But as for this enemy, Yvette couldn't bear to do anything to him.

Chuck sighed. Of course, he couldn't continue to say anything. Thus, he walked silently with Yvette into the building and they happened to meet Zelda, who was handling the renovation. The look in Yvette's eyes was cold as she said, "Hubby, you have done a lot of things."

Chuck was embarrassed upon hearing this.

In a long span of time, Chuck only touched Queenie and Zelda, but he did nothing else.

Zelda saw Yvette with Chuck, and she felt grieved. Yvette had slapped her the other day. Zelda sighed softly at this thought and walked away, continuing to check on the renovation. The business was about to launch soon.

Because Yvette was there, Chuck couldn't go up to Zelda. It took a lot for Yvette to return to his side, so Chuck couldn't make Yvette angry again. He could only try to give Zelda a call later at night to comfort her.

Then, Chuck and Yvette walked forward.

At the company, Susan had to face more troubles. Things at the company were calm for the time being, but someone had been looking for Yvette, and it was Wilbur.

That's right. He was the one who had divulged to Yvette that the owner of the plaza was Chuck. However, he did not get his desired result. He wanted to see Chuck break up with Yvette, and he wanted to Chuck fall from his grace. He was especially upset over what had previously happened with Zabrina.

"Yvette really isn't here. As you can see, I'm helping her manage the company," Susan was helpless as she told Wilbur.

"If she's not here, I will be back tomorrow!" Wilbur said stubbornly and stood up. He found the business in the plaza to have improved and the customer flow had increased by a lot. His father had regretted selling the plaza and Wilbur felt even more regretful. The thing was that Chuck had not shown up in the plaza recently. What was he doing?

"Why are you here?" Yvette's eyes darkened as she walked in and saw Wilbur.

Wilbur was surprised, but when he saw Chuck who was behind him, he sensed that something was wrong. Did Yvette tell Chuck about what had transpired? It had better not be, because if she did, Chuck would have to be hit by a car and die just like Wilbur had warned her.

"What?" Of course, Wilbur pretended not to know anything. He then greeted Chuck, "Hey, Chuck, where have you been recently? I wanted to hang out with you."

Chuck smiled and replied, "I left because I had something on." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

But before Chuck could finish speaking, Yvette pulled him aside, "Hubby, don't talk too much with this person."

Yvette could tell that Chuck didn't know what Wilbur had told her about the plaza. Wilbur was such a vile person and she didn't want Chuck to get too close to him.

Chuck was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"No reason. Why are you not leaving yet?" Yvette simply replied and then looked at Wilbur fiercely. Being spoken to like this, Wilbur was a little annoyed. He said, "Chuck, what's wrong with your woman? You..."

Slap!

Yvette's slap landed on Wilbur's face. Chuck was stunned, and Wilbur was shocked as well. Even Susan, who was surprised to see Yvette, was startled too.

"How dare you hit me!" Wilbur was shocked that Yvette had hit him.

"Get out of my way. Understand? If you approach my husband again, I'll kill you!" Yvette said callously.

Chuck was absolutely stunned. At this moment, Yvette's eyes were incredibly menacing.

Wilbur snorted. He didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Chuck. After all, he knew that Chuck was backed by a person from the Logan family from Central City.

Wilbur could only stroke his red and swollen cheek and walked out. Chuck came to his senses and said, "Honey, you..."

Chuck didn't expect Yvette to hit Wilbur. What was going on?

Yvette said, "Hubby, don't contact him anymore. He's a villain!"

Chuck understood her meaning, but he was curious. How did Yvette know that Wilbur was such a person?

Chuck didn't ask any more questions because what Yvette said made sense. But even if Wilbur really was a vile person, he had helped Chuck before with Zabrina's matter.

After that, Susan came over and told Yvette about the recent developments at work. Yvette's eyes were dim as she spoke, "No need. This company will belong to you eventually."

Susan was shocked and she asked, "Yvette, what do you mean?"

Chuck sighed upon hearing this. He could tell Yvette's reluctance. All he could do was to go out and meet Yolanda by himself to ask her about the situation at the plaza and the land.

However, just as Chuck walked out, he saw a crowd gathered in front of what seemed to be Lara's cafe. What was going on?

Chuck went downstairs, in doubt, and happened to meet Yolanda who was in a panic.

"Yolanda, what's wrong? What's happening?" Chuck asked. He felt that something was wrong.

"Something happened in Lara's cafe. Those who drank her milk tea have been poisoned," Yolanda said helplessly. This was all she knew, so she had to go over and deal with the situation.

Chuck was shocked to hear this. Did the customers get poisoned? That was a serious matter. He then asked, "How many people were poisoned?"

"More than ten." Yolanda became serious and said, "I know Lara wouldn't do this kind of thing. She has a conscience in running her business. I'm just worried that someone had deliberately targeted the plaza. That would be troublesome."

More than ten people were poisoned, so this was not a small matter. If it was not handled well, no one would dare to come to the plaza anymore. Furthermore, who had the guts to target the plaza?

It was better to take a look before making judgement calls. Thus, Chuck and Yolanda ran down towards the cafe.

This was an emergency. Yolanda immediately asked the security guards to come over. She had also called the police. When Chuck arrived, he saw a palm print on Lara's face. Someone had slapped her and she had burst into tears.

Charlotte was in the same state. Chuck saw that Lara was grieved. It didn't seem to be Lara's fault. Had someone really targeted his plaza? Chuck's eyes were cold when he thought of this.

"Chuck, Chuck," Lara cried and ran over. "Chuck, there's nothing wrong with my milk tea and it's not my fault. Yet, they insist that I have put poison in my milk tea," she sobbed.

Lara had been slapped a few times and she felt so wronged that she cried. She was particularly fussy about this aspect. She bought all the stock personally, so how could she have done such a thing?

But at this moment, so many people claimed that they felt uncomfortable and vomited. Lara was very flustered. If something happened to these people, she might go to jail.

"As long as it's not your fault, it should be okay," Chuck comforted her. Lara nodded, feeling grieved yet moved. She hadn't seen Chuck in a long time. How did he become so gentle?

Chuck and Yolanda then walked into the crowd. Yolanda dealt with the situation and inquired what was going on. They said that after drinking the milk tea from Lara's cafe, the situation turned into this way. Yolanda frowned and walked towards Chuck, saying, "I think someone is causing trouble."

Chuck agreed with her. He looked at Lara and said, "Aren't you coming?"

Lara quickly ran to Chuck's side and said, "I really didn't do anything wrong. Believe me."

"I'm not saying that you have done anything wrong," Chuck said as he looked around at the people. He then asked her, "I'm asking if you have offended anyone recently."

"No, I've not even been going out," Lara shook her head hastily and said.

"No?" Chuck frowned and his eyes were fierce. He muttered, "So, am I the one who has been targeted?"
