My Billionaire Mom

Chapter 590

"Nothing much," Yvette answered. She wasn't going to tell him what she saw.

After all, Chuck had just said that he really respected Willa.

Since he didn't think of Willa that way, she didn't want to embarrass him by telling him what she had just seen.

"Alright then," Chuck said eventually. He didn't think it was anything to worry about anyway.

Willa and Yvette had a good relationship with each other. There shouldn't be any bad blood between them.

However, Chuck thought he saw a trace of sadness in Willa's eyes just now. What was the reason for that?

Soon, he assumed that he must have been mistaken. Willa should have nothing to be sad about, right?

She had a successful career, a good personality and she was also beautiful.

Chuck wasn't going to overthink too much and changed the topic, "Honey, it's been a while since we've..."

"Naughty, your mind's in the gutter again. Hold on a moment," Yvette said, smiling faintly. It was true, it had been some time since they'd been together.

Thud! There was a knock on the door.

"Young Master, President Lee is back. She's requested both of you to get downstairs. We're heading back to the United States now," Betty spoke from the outside.

"Okay, we'll be right out," Chuck replied.

"Honey, let's continue our chat when we get home," He said while standing up.

"Alright, whatever you say. When we get back, we can do whatever you want," Yvette replied softly.

She had been scared out of her wits this time round.

When she had laid on Chuck's chest, she listened closely to the steady beating of his heart. It was proof that he was indeed alive and well.

Chuck smiled and teased, "Really? Anything I want?"

"That's right. But you do know what's off limits right?" Yvette said.

Yvette would never be able to fully commit her body to Chuck since things were still so uncertain between them. She liked him a lot and would do anything he asked, except from that.

She honestly didn't know when she had become like this.

"Of course. Come on, let's head back," Chuck said as they both left together.

"Where's Auntie Logan?" Chuck asked Betty when they finally reached outside.

"She's waiting downstairs." "So... You met with that woman right? What did she want?" Chuck asked. He was particularly concerned about this matter.

Eventually, Betty told him everything she knew. She also told him what she thought about Adriana. Yvette hadn't known about this before, but after finding out how Adriana demanded Chuck to marry into another family, she was furious.

"What? She wants Chuck to marry into her family?!" Yvette hissed, her eyes cold and deadly.

"Yep, that's what she said," Betty was also angry.

Chuck himself already had Karen Lee as his mother. How could he just marry into another family and renounce his name?

"Honey, what happened between the both of you?" Yvette was a little jealous. She was fine with Willa just a while ago, but she couldn't stand this obnoxious woman.

How could she try to steal Chuck from her, and in such an underhanded and derogatory way too?!

"Nothing! I just saved her from the village. That's all," Chuck explained.

He couldn't even figure out what Adriana thought of him.

It was more likely that she thought of him as a plaything to amuse and entertain her!

It had to be!

"Nothing happened? I don't believe you, tell me the truth!" Yvette's tone turned solemn. It was the exact same tone she used when she had been a teacher. Betty was also curious and thought that Yvette might be on to something. The two of them had only interacted with each other for a few days, so something must've happened for Adriana to take an interest in him!

"I'm telling the truth! Her foot was injured, so I just carried her for a few days, that's all!"

"A few days? Hubby, how can you do such a thing?!" Yvette was jealous.

He really shouldn't have!

Betty couldn't help but smile at the couple's exchange.

She was secretly amused at how Yvette grew envious of Chuck's simple action of carrying Adriana.

"I'm sorry," Chuck apologised.

He had really done it this time. He shouldn't have saved that woman. He should've just saved himself and left her there to fend for herself.

Who knew that woman would repay him like this?! She even called to trouble his mother. This was indeed aggravating and unbefitting of her.

Chuck regretted saving her.

Why did he have to meddle that time?

"Hmph, I don't care. Don't even think about touching me today, I can't stand to even look at you right now," Yvette shook her head.

She had to punish Chuck.

If she didn't, who knew how many women he would end up hooking up with? Now, there was already Willa and Zelda in line for him. The more Yvette thought about it, the more upset she felt.

"Honey..." Chuck trailed off. He held her hand in his gently to show her how sorry he was.

His words softened her heart, but she remained grave.

She wanted to break free from his grasp, but no matter how much she willed herself, it was useless. Whatever, she had already made her mind up. She was going to sleep in a separate bed tonight no matter what.

However, she hadn't been able to sleep properly for a long while now. She only felt safe enough to sleep with Chuck. So, maybe a night wouldn't hurt...

"No," Yvette told herself firmly. She wasn't going to be swayed.

Eventually, the three of them made their way downstairs.

The car was ready for them to head straight to the airport.

Chuck thought about getting a good night's rest as he got into the car. Karen was driving.

Willa was looking out the window. When Chuck greeted her, all she did was give him a barely audible reply.

Chuck thought this was odd. What was up with her today?

He didn't probe her for answers. He assumed it was probably the fatigue that got to her after spending so much time searching for him. When they arrived at the airport, Chuck got on the private jet and departed to the United States.

On the plane, he was still apologising profusely to Yvette.

"Stop it, I'm not going to entertain you today, that's final!" Yvette remarked sternly.

Chuck couldn't do anything more after that.

Though, she could not bear to see that dejected expression on her husband's face. Eventually, she sighed, "Honey, come here. But don't touch me."

Chuck smiled and scooched over to Yvette, leaning his head on her shoulder.

Yvette was at a loss now. She gave up and said, "Hubby, I have something for you."

"What is it?" Chuck asked, perking up a little.

"Look at this. When I was in the Amazon forest, I saw this by the river when I was getting some water to drink," Yvette took out a transparent stone the size of an eyeball from her pocket as she

explained. The stone was tinted slightly in red.

"Is this a diamond?" Chuck asked in surprise.

"I think it's a blood diamond. It's pretty heavy, so should be worth quite some money. Keep it safe, alright? Don't mess about in the future anymore. Do you understand?" Yvette said.

She felt like a teacher giving her student a prize as consolation.

Yvette found this metaphor quite funny herself.

"Honey, you should be the one to carry this with you," Chuck said. What use did he have for a diamond anyways?

"I'm giving it to you regardless. In the future, you have to be obedient. Don't do anything else with other women, alright? If you make me angry next time, I won't be so quick to forgive you anymore, do you understand?" Yvette frowned.

Of course Chuck knew that. He wouldn't do anything to hurt Yvette. However, he had already wronged her before with Zelda, Queenie and Quinn.

Speaking of which, he honestly didn't know how they were doing these days.

Those encounters with them were his darkest secrets.

"Alright, I understand," Chuck nodded, putting the diamond away. If he was short on money, he could have it sold. After all, this diamond was very big. He had never seen a diamond this size before, so it should be quite valuable.

"Are you sure?" Yvette smiled.

Chuck nodded fervently.

"I wish I believed you. Well, just try your best to stick to that promise, alright?" Yvette knew Chuck was popular with other women. With his status, how could he not be?

She wanted Chuck all to herself, but she knew that she couldn't stop other women from desiring him as well. She would have to count on Chuck's own self-control. She didn't want to police Chuck's life too much either since it wouldn't feel right.

"I know, Honey. So about tonight...?" Chuck asked hopefully. "No. It's your punishment. Have a good night's sleep tonight and don't think too much about other things, alright? No matter whatever requests you have, I won't entertain them," Yvette reprimanded him sternly.

Knowing that he was already threading on thin ice, Chuck dropped the topic. Never mind then, at least she allowed him to lean on her for now...

"May I ask who you're looking for?"

A stern man asked as he stood in front of Regine. He was the bodyguard of Karen's villa. He had already noticed this girl watching and pacing about the area for the past few days.

Was she looking for someone?

"I..." Regine bit her lip in nervousness. She really didn't know why she came here.

She hadn't been able to get in touch with Chuck in a long while. She could only try loitering around here to see if she could catch him. After all, Chuck did tell her that he lived here.

"Miss, who are you looking for?" The bodyguard, Martin, repeated once more, this time, louder.

"I'm looking for Chuck Cannon," Regine said anxiously. She had already asked around. This villa belonged to a woman named Karen Lee.

She knew that this was a place where only the super rich could stay in. For instance, people like Karen Lee, who owned the entire villa. Logically, no one would be able to stay in her premises.

Did Chuck lie about staying here? "Oh, you're looking for the Young Master?" Martin asked in surprise.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
