My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 167

All her relatives looked down on Chuck Cannon, making Manny extremely angry and embarrassed. Why did they all think that Chuck was so incapable?

Everyone thought that Chuck’s plaza was fake and that he would definitely be recording a loss?

Manny sighed and didn't know how to explain.

"Uncles, please don't say that. Zelda's boyfriend's plaza is doing really well." Manny shook her head.

"Yeah, the three of us went to see it last time. It's not big, but it is still pretty impressive for such a young man like him. He not only owns a plaza, but also..." The woman in the tight jeans said. She suddenly realized that she was about to bring up the last time she broke the vase. It was too embarrassing, so she quickly shut up.

"What else?" A relative asked.

"Well, he's not bad anyway. He can settle many issues with just a phone call." The woman in the tight jeans curled her lips.

"Settle many issues? Like what?"

"He settled..." The woman in the tight jeans hesitated. It was embarrassing for her to say it.

The young woman in hot pants immediately used her hand to cover her mouth. Manny’s face was unusual too. She didn't want to bring up the previous incident.

The three of them did not speak.

Were they at a loss for words?

These relatives shook their heads. They all had connections too, and making a few phone calls to settle issues were not considered an exceptional ability.

At most, he was just lucky enough to know a few people.

Alas, Zelda Maine had such good qualities, why did she find such a useless boyfriend like him?

Such a pity.

He did not deserve to be with her at all.

"Does he really own a plaza?" A relative asked. The three of them couldn’t even explain properly, who would believe them?

"Yes, it's true," Manny said in a hurry.

"Come on now, we are all relatives, and we are all looking out for Zelda. There's no need to lie to us." One of the relatives sighed and shook his head.

They were all family, so why did she have to lie for the sake of her reputation?

She couldn't even continue her lies now.

They all sighed and looked down on Chuck even more. He was clearly taking advantage of Zelda. It was such an embarrassment.

Manny was anxious. How did things get to this point?

"My daughter's boyfriend really owns a plaza. It's just next to his school, I went there last time..."

"It's alright. You don't have to say anymore, Manny. We believe that he owns a plaza!"

"Yeah. We all believe it."

They all sighed and shook their heads. In truth, they didn't believe it at all. For Manny’s sake, they just pretended to.

Manny became even more anxious, and her two best friends were helpless.

The atmosphere became awkward.

Rainie Lowe and her boyfriend Wallace Hanne looked at each other, then smiled. Wallace felt so proud of himself now.

Zelda felt sorry for Chuck. She brought him here today to pretend to be her boyfriend. But she did not expect her relatives to all look down on him.

She looked at him apologetically. He was just a student but he was looked down on by her relatives.

Chuck didn't care. He was going to leave after completing his job of pretending to be Zelda’s boyfriend. He was looking forward to buying that car for Yvette.

"Alright, everyone, enough talking. We know him now. Let's eat! I’m famished." A relative proposed. He wasn't interested in discussing about Chuck.

"Yeah. There's nothing to talk about. Let's eat."

The other relatives also said so. Manny sighed and arranged for her relatives to all sit-down.

"Chuck, let's eat," Zelda whispered. She wanted to comfort him by holding him in her arms. After all, she was ten years older than him.

She felt that she should do this, but there were so many people around. Could she do this?

"Sure." Chuck nodded. He had not eaten anything in the morning, and he was already really hungry.

Everyone took their seats.

Zelda asked her mother in a low voice, "Where is Dad? Is he not here at such an important occasion?” Manny then told her that he was out for important business negotiations.

Zelda nodded.
