My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 220

But how could that be possible?

How could Chuck afford to buy himself a house at that time? Yvette didn't understand. Moreover, how could the place that Chuck had found for Queenie be her previous house? Could it be a coincidence?

What was going on?

"Well, you live here, right?" Yvette Jordan smiled. She saw Chuck's car downstairs, so Chuck must be here.

Of course, she didn't think that Chuck Cannon would do anything that would break her heart. She had just received a phone call from Chuck, saying that he had left the plaza and was heading for home.

Yvette knew that Queenie Carson was working part-time in the plaza, so Chuck was probably just sending her back.

"Teacher Jordan, please come in and have a seat." Queenie was nervous and at the same time, the feeling of guilt was engulfing her. She felt sorry for Yvette. She had done something that would let her down, and then she was trying to do it again!

"Nope, it's fine. I have to go home to cook." Yvette took a look inside. Hubby, aren't you going to come out yet?

"Well, Teacher Jordan, please be careful on the way." What a sigh of relief! Queenie thought. If Yvette really came in, she couldn't imagine how awful the incident would have been. After all, Chuck was still inside the washroom.

"Okay," Yvette sighed in her heart.

She then turned away and left.

"Wait."

However, Chuck had come out from the washroom. He knew he couldn't hide anymore. After all, his car was still parked below. Yvette wasn't blind, how could she pretend that she had not seen him?

He wouldn't be able to explain himself if he still refused to come out. Anyway, Chuck just came here to send Queenie back. He did not do anything, nor did he planned to do anything.

Yvette heaved a euphoric sigh of relief. This proved that Chuck was not doing anything behind her back. If Chuck didn't come out, she would be convinced that he and Queenie were doing something culpable just now. Since he came out now, she believed that he was innocent. He probably just sent Queenie home.

The reason why he hid was that he was afraid that she might misunderstand him.

"Hubby." Yvette turned her head and asked with a smile blossoming over her face, "Why are you here?"

Chuck replied awkwardly that he was just sending Queenie home and was just about to leave.

Queenie's heart sank.

"Well, Queenie, I'm going back now. Take good care of yourself. Go ahead and do your work," Chuck said.

"Okay, thank you for sending me home."

Chuck felt guilty as if he had just committed a crime. Even though he didn't, but he nearly repeated the same mistake that might break Yvette's heart and hurt Queenie. Chuck was well aware that he couldn't give Queenie, this divine and innocent young lady, the future she wanted.

All in all, it was a mistake from the beginning. And yet, the thing was becoming more complicated now. If Queenie was an easy girl, Chuck could've hooked up with her without any guilt. But Queenie wasn't. She was simply charming, sweet and beautiful. She just needed to find herself a Prince Charming who would treat her like a princess. Her virginity should be left to her husband in the future.

"Hubby, could I ask you a question?" Yvette came in and asked.

Chuck replied in embarrassment. "Yes?"

"I knew that you were the one who found this house for Queenie, but how did you find it?" Yvette smiled. She just asked due to curiosity. She didn't mean to accuse him of anything, but she merely wanted to know the truth, simple as that.

"Err...I, I bought it," Chuck stammered. He thought it was no longer necessary to hide these matters from her. He was pretty sure Yvette was already suspicious about him when she asked the question.

"You bought it?" Yvette was stunned. She remembered the time when she had hired a real estate agent on the day she sold the house. Coincidentally, someone happened to buy her house on that very same day. She and a real estate agent went to the house management office the next day. Chuck was also present at that time.

She should have thought of it! She had completely no idea that Chuck had so much money!

Also... she had suspected then that the reason it was bought so quickly was because of the "baller". Then, could it be that Chuck... was the "baller" who had been helping her all along?

Yvette began to grow nervous. How should she explain it? She could sense that something was fishy when Wilbur Wendel showed up as the "baller" and had dinner with her. That feeling.... it was weird. She did not get the same feeling from Wilbur compared to with the "baller". Nevertheless, she thought that she was just overthinking at that moment. But it seemed that she didn't... If Chuck really bought the house, then it would be a high possibility, at least a fifty percent, that the "baller" was Chuck, then...

Was it true?

"Yes." Chuck nodded.
