My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 222

"Auntie Logan, welcome to my home. Err... It's a little bit messy. I hope you don't mind." Chuck Cannon opened the door with embarrassment and walked in with Willa's suitcase.

Willa Logan followed him into the house, her beautiful eyes observing around. She smiled and said, "It's good."

Just a little messy.

Willa tied her hair up and then started to tidy up Chuck's house.

Chuck was embarrassed. He told her that he would clean up the mess himself. It was definitely inappropriate and rude to let Auntie Logan clean up the house for him. He couldn't do that.

"It's okay." Willa shook her head and rejected him politely. She would be staying here anyway. She had to clean up her own house.

Chuck, of course, had to clean up the mess together with Willa. By 8 o'clock in the evening, the house was all clean and tidy. Chuck was so tired that he struggled to catch his breath. In contrast, it seemed to be easy and effortless for Willa.

Chuck was stunned. Willa really did live up to her name. A super 'baller' like her was able to come to the Ocean City all alone. She was also a master in fighting. She could beat more than ten people by herself.

"May I ask you a question?"

"Okay. Ask away." Willa sat on the sofa. She didn't use her mobile phone. Instead, she took out a book and started reading it. After listening to Chuck's question, she smiled, looked up and closed the book.

"Auntie Logan, are you good at fighting?" Chuck came over and asked.

Willa was a little stunned, and then she immediately chuckled and replied, "Hmm...I think I'm not too bad."

However, Chuck understood. Willa probably could defeat more than 20 people on her own! She was indeed an incredible woman!

One would definitely feel secure by her side.

Chuck gave her a thumbs-up, and Willa smiled.

"Auntie Logan, I'm going back now."

"Okay, be careful on the way."

Chuck opened the door and came out. He gave Yvette Jordan a call and asked her if she was still at the plaza. Yvette said that she was already home. It was a hectic day for her. Apart from dealing with the company's affairs, she also went to the new outlet in the afternoon. She had taken some photos of the outlet's interior and was ready to work on the design herself.

However, she suddenly realized that she should take the initiative to do something to repay Chuck. So she made a meal and waited for Chuck's return patiently.

"Well, honey, I'll go back soon."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Chuck hung up the phone, but when he walked to the elevator, the light above his head suddenly turned off. Chuck was speechless. Was there a blackout? Seriously? Here? He was at one of the highest floors in the building.

Chuck hesitated for a moment and knocked on the door again to see if there was a blackout at home. Sure enough, when Auntie Logan opened the door, the house was in complete darkness. He was embarrassed. It was the first time he took Auntie Logan home, and never did he expect that he would encounter such an unpleasant situation.

"Excuse me, Auntie Logan. It seems that there's a blackout here," Chuck said apologetically.

"It's okay. I'll just go to bed early tonight. The power is off, so the elevator is not working either. If you don't mind, why don't just spend a night here?" Willa smiled.

She didn't want Chuck to take the stairs down. They were staying on one of the highest floors. His legs might turn numb or even tremble if he took the stairs all the way down. It would be dangerous if he couldn't control the accelerator properly when he was driving. He was still young and had a good future. The accident would destroy his future.

Just as Chuck was about to shake his head and say that he had to go back, Willa added, "Come in. If you walk the stairs down, I'm pretty sure your legs will become numb and shaky. It wouldn't be good for driving. You didn't train enough."

Chuck was embarrassed. Was Auntie implying that she could go up and down the stairs effortlessly but Chuck couldn't?

Chuck was convinced and he eventually entered the house.

"Be careful, Chucky," Willa said gently.

Ouch! Chuck exclaimed in pain. He covered his legs. What luck! How could he even hit something at his own home? He was speechless. Willa quickly helped Chuck up. "Sleep earlier, Chucky. Sleeping early is good for your health."

"Okay, Auntie Logan, you should go to bed earlier too."
