My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 174

Chuck sighed. Two days ago, he had promised to buy a car for Yvette. However, he slept too late last night and woke up at 2pm today.

Yvette must be very disappointed since she had been looking forward to it today. He had broken his promise to accompany her today. Moreover, he had not taken the initiative to contact her. Chuck was anxious and wanted to go back immediately.

But what was the point of going back now? He couldn't buy it now even if he rushed home.

Yvette must be very disappointed in him.

Looking at his cell phone, he saw that there were no missed calls from her. Yvette was like this and would hide her feelings. Chuck sighed, "Sister Zelda, I have to make a phone call..."

"Okay," Zelda nodded.

She opened the door and went out, only to see her mother, Manny Lowe, waiting for her. She saw that her daughter's hair was in a mess and her complexion was rosy. Did they have a rough night?

She was an experienced woman. She obviously knew the reason why women were in good spirits after a night.

She smiled and asked, "Zelda dear, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes mom, I slept extremely well," Zelda sat down and took a sip of the milk on the table.

"Daughter, I won't pester you to get married. But when do you think you can give me a grandchild? I am open minded enough for you to have a baby before marriage," Manny said with a smile.

Zelda's expression became unnatural. Have a child? That would require Chuck to be willing to lay a hand on her first, and also approve of them having a child.

In this case, why would Chuck want to touch her? Even if he finally succumbed to his desires, it would not be possible for her to get pregnant overnight.

She didn't want to threaten Chuck with a child. It was meaningless to do that.

Gosh, even her mother was worried about her love life.

Zelda was forced to come up with an excuse, "Mom, do you think it's appropriate to say such things? Chuck is still a college student."

"What's wrong with college students? How many college students became pregnant when they were studying? Things are different now. My daughter, you have to be more open minded," Manny said earnestly.

Zelda felt helpless.

Manny sighed and said, "My daughter, you will be 31 years old in a few days. Have you ever thought about your age? It's about time for you to have a child. This is what a woman should do in her life."

"Mom," Zelda sighed softly. She glanced sideways into the room. Chuck must be calling Yvette.

Manny couldn't do anything about it. She said, "Daughter, you have to work hard. Chuck is young. The both of you have been together for so long, so you should be pregnant by now. Work harder!"

Zelda smiled bitterly and thought to herself, "If Chuck doesn't want to touch me, how can I work hard?"

On the other hand, Chuck was in the room desperately trying to call Yvette.

When he finally got through to her, he let out a sigh of relief, "Honey, I'm sorry. I told you that I'd like to accompany you to buy the car today, but..."

Yvette said, "Chuck, it's alright,"

Chuck felt even more guilty. He could hear her voice trembling, it must be because she was disappointed.

Sigh, what did he just do?

They had finally became closer, so why did he make such a stupid mistake?

Chuck said, "Yvette, are you at work? I'll come over tonight."

Her eyes were filled with tears as she said, "No, I'm going out of town for a business trip. I won't be home until tomorrow." In truth, she was in her room.

She was slapped twice so her face was still swollen. If Chuck saw her like, Yvette would fall apart.

She couldn't let Chuck see her in such a sorry state.

Chuck said gently, "Alright. I went out yesterday and I will be home tonight. What time will you be home tomorrow? I'll pick you up and then we'll go buy the car, okay?"

"I..." Yvette wanted to cry, but she couldn't. She couldn't let Chuck know.

"I'm sorry, honey. I promise I will show up tomorrow. I swear, please trust me," Chuck said earnestly. He could not wait to see Yvette.

"I trust you. Listen Chuck, I'm about to head into a meeting right now."

"Okay, don't tire yourself out, alright?"
