My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 211

"Hubby, I've given them a vacation to relax," Yvette Jordan said in a hurry. She was nervous and felt guilty that she had lied to him.

"Well, it's better to take some time off." Chuck Cannon thought it was good. It was a good idea too if he could have his employees take a vacation in batches. They would be able to work more efficiently then.

"Well, hubby, I still have something to attend to outside. I'll be back at night."

Yvette was exhausted. She hadn't been sleeping well these days. Even though she had Chuck sleeping beside her and had sometimes rested her head on his chest, she would still wake up in the middle of the night in cold sweat.

She was under a lot of pressure and still owed the 'baller' 600,000 dollars.

She did not dare to say anything to Chuck. If she told him, he would certainly hate her.

Chuck nodded to her, "Alright."

"Hubby, am I very useless?"

Yvette suddenly lost her confidence. She had lost her company and was left with a mere ten thousand dollars. Her rent was almost up, but she was still six hundred thousand dollars in debt.

Yvette looked at the closed shutters. She really wanted to cry, but she couldn't.

"Why would you be? Are you alright?" Chuck was surprised. Why was Yvette so depressed?

"I'm fine, hubby. I'm leaving first. I'll be cooking tonight so let's eat dinner at home." Yvette shook her head and walked into the lift.

Chuck smiled. Yvette had been very busy ever since she started the company. Moreover, since they were at bad terms before and had only reconciled recently, it was already ages since he was last able to eat something she made. Yvette's cooking skills were still pretty impressive.

She took the elevator and left, while Chuck went to Yolanda's office. After following up with some matters, he was prepared to leave the plaza. He had gotten news that there was a new piece of land on sale in the city hub. It would be a definite profit if he bought some property there, so Chuck was going to go take a look at them himself.

It would be a big investment if he purchased some property there.

Since his mother was so powerful, he couldn't lose out as her son!

Chuck's first goal was to be the richest man in the country. As for when he could achieve it, he had to depend on his luck and hard work.

When he arrived at Yolanda's office, Chuck frowned. Quinn Miller was here again. This time, she was dressed in hot pants that revealed her supple and sexy thighs. The outline of her hip was curvy and tempting that he couldn't move his gaze away.

Chuck suddenly remembered how he had saved her and brought her to a motel that night. He couldn't seem to forget that although this person was annoying, her figure was indeed attractive.

Quinn was disgusted by his gaze. It was nauseating!

She just glared at Chuck, thinking that he was a vile person. All men were nasty, apart from the person who had saved her that night. That man would never take advantage of her...

Chuck regretted immensely for saving her that night. Why didn't he just let the assistant have his way with her? He could've just stood by the sidelines and watched as the whole scene unfolded.

"What are you looking at?" Quinn's voice was cold.

Chuck didn't bother to pay attention to her. Didn't she dress like this to seduce men?

He walked over and said, "I'm not going to sell the plaza no matter what. How many times do you want me to say it?"

Yolanda Lane also tried to explain to her, but Quinn had shoved the plan in her hands. If they didn't want to sell it, Quinn threatened to buy a piece of land nearby and build a greater and bigger plaza.

Quinn already had her own construction team on standby. She was clear how much it would cost to purchase the land. 700 or 800 million dollars was probably enough.

Hearing this, Chuck was furious. He stared at her and said, "Do whatever you want. I will not sell the plaza. End of story. You can just build one for all I care."

"You will sell it to me!" Quinn said and stormed out. Chuck snickered, "You've gotten well quite quickly, haven't you?"

Quinn stopped in her tracks. She turned her head and stared at Chuck, asking, "What do you mean?"

Why did he ask that?

Chuck wanted to tell her that it was he who saved her that day. However, he knew that she would never believe him even if he told her. It would be best to spare him the explaining.

Chuck chuckled, "Your butt... You fell very heavily that day."

Yolanda was surprised. What happened between the two?

"Shameless!" Quinn turned around angrily and walked out. Why were there so many disgusting people in this world?

She was utterly disappointed by all men. Was the only gentleman in the world the person who saved her?
