"Ding." The elevator door opened.
"Honey, get in," Chuck was nervous. What would Yvette's reaction be when she saw his mother?
"Alright," Yvette stepped inside, but just then, her cell phone suddenly rang. She took out her mobile phone and took a look. It was an unknown number.
Yvette said in confusion, "Honey, wait a minute, I need to take this call."
Chuck had no objections since they had already arrived at his mother's hotel. His mother was just an elevator trip away, there was no hurry. Besides, a phone call wouldn't take long.
Yvette answered the phone and said, "Hello...?"
A few seconds later, Yvette froze. "What did you say? Okay, I got it."
Yvette hung up the phone with a conflicted look on her face.
"Honey, what's wrong?" Chuck asked.
"I think they had the wrong number," Yvette replied while biting her lip and shook her head.
"Okay, come on in," Chuck smiled.
Yvette entered the elevator. Chuck then pressed the button to the top floor, and the elevator went up slowly. Chuck was getting more and more nervous by the second. He would see his mother soon.
Chuck watched as the elevator's number reached the top floor. "Ding." The door opened as they arrived.
"Honey, let's go," Chuck pulled Yvette out.
Yvette hesitated, then she nodded and said, "Okay, Hubby."
Chuck brought Yvette to his mother's office. Chuck knocked on the door, but there was no response. Was his mother not there? Chuck was disappointed. He pushed the door open and there was indeed no one inside.
Yvette followed him in and glanced at the empty room. "Hubby, who are you bringing me to?"
Chuck had no choice but to say, "Please wait a minute, Honey. I'll make a call."
"Okay," she replied.
Chuck walked to the side, found his mother's number, and dialed the number.
Yvette stared at Chuck. For a moment, she was in a trance.
As soon as the phone call was connected, Chuck heard a loud crash. It was the sound of a car crashing. Chuck was frightened, was his mother in a car accident? He asked frantically, "Mom, what happened to you?"
"I'm fine. Didn't you say that you wanted to bring Yvette to see me? I was on the way to the hotel, but someone stopped me. This person doesn't want me to see Yvette." It was his mother's voice.
Chuck was furious, "Mom, where are you right now?"
"Why, are you coming?" On the phone, Karen chuckled.
"Yes, Mom, where are you?" Chuck was sure to go there. She was his mother after all!
Now that his mother was in danger, how could he not go?
"Okay, I'll send you the location," Karen said.
Hanging up the phone, Chuck received the location. His eyes were filled with coldness. He thought angrily, "How dare you people make a move against my mother? No matter who you are, you must die!"
Chuck was really angry!
He put away his phone and ran to Yvette's side. "Honey, I'm going out. I'll be right back, just wait for me here."
"Okay, Hubby, go ahead!" Yvette nodded.
Chuck couldn't wait any longer. After getting Yvette's understanding, he ran out.
Yvette's eyes glanced around in the office. She sat down and was silent, very silent. She took out her mobile phone and stared at the strange number on it...
......
When Chuck arrived at the parking lot, he drove his sports car away and went to his mother's location as fast as he could. Chuck was extremely worried, so he didn't control the car's speed at all. He drove at about a hundred miles per hour on the city's road, and about ten minutes later, Chuck arrived at the suburbs and saw his mother's car.
