Chapter 200 Charlie’s Car Accident 

Were these projects my compensation

I pressed my l*ps together, taking my time before responding. Scott Corporation was desperate for new ventures, and the Avaloria projects were a golden ticket. His offer was tempting, and I found myself unable to outright refuse

After a moment of silence, I nodded in agreement. Alright.” 

Moving into old manor was not exactly a hardship. Madam Young was not giving me a hard time anymore, and it was a nice place

He seemed pleased when I agreed, a slight smile playing on his l*ps. Need a ride later? I can drop you 

off.” 

No thanks.The words flew out of me, a kneejerk reaction, but then I remembered his intentions were good. Actually, you go on with your day. I’ve got my car; I’ll manage.” 

With that, I left the hospital and headed straight for Scott Corporation

Maxwell was out of the office, which meant my todo list was a mile long. By the time I finally left Sweety’s apartment, the sky was a canvas of deep blues and purples

My phone rang on the drive home. It was Mom. Her voice was barely audible over some background racket. Yvette, have you eaten dinner yet?” 

Yeah, I did,I replied, curious about the commotion. Mom, are you guys watching fireworks or something?” 

Oh yes, they’re just gorgeous,she said, her voice bubbling with joy

I grinned, teasing her, Isn’t tonight the big prewedding bash? Shouldn’t you be gossiping with Mary instead of calling me?” 

Her laughter twinkled through the phone. We just had a chat. Mary’s a bit older than me, and her daughter works in Lake City as a journalist. Hey, that’s what Sweety does, right? Maybe they’ve crossed paths. When I’m back, let’s all grab a bite and introduce you two.” 

I chuckled, Mom, are you trying to set me up with a new BFF?” 

Oh, stop it. Is it really that bad?she retorted playfully. Mary’s daughter is such a gem. She’s gorgeous and levelheaded. You could use a friend like her to cool that fiery temper of yours. I’d worry less with her by your side.” 

I decided to steer away from the topic of my supposed need for calming influences. So, when are you guys heading back?” 

You’re missing us already?she teased

I laughed. Absolutely. The house is way too quiet without you all. When’s the homecoming?”

He boisted the bag of fruit a bit bigher. Mom had a craving, sent me out on a fruit rum. By the way, something came up last night, and I couldn’t sorting by. Sorry about that. How’d it go with Charlie?”
