My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 31

Manager Yarn was once again tongue-tied. What did he mean? Was he really supposed to kneel and beg Chuck Cannon for forgiveness?

He froze like a statue, feet glued firmly to the floor. His eyes widened in disbelief at Chuck, whose calm and expressionless emotions contrasted his own!

He could not understand.

He had a good relationship with the boss. How could the boss force him to kneel down to others?

Who exactly is this Chuck Cannon?

The shock on his face slowly subsided as he realized the truth, now looking more complicated than stunned.

Yvette Jordan froze. If she hadn't heard it from Director Wendel with her own ears, she wouldn't believe that something amazing and unbelievable just took place because of one phone call Chuck made.

Who did Chuck call just now? Yvette racked her brain to try to think who it was. No one else had the power to do so, apart from Zelda Maine! It must be her!

Who knew that Zelda was acquainted with the square owner. Yvette was taken aback, what a turn of events in her favor!

She looked at Chuck. For a moment, she felt a lingering thought cross her mind... Chuck really wasn't joking and didn't disappoint her.

"Yarn, are you fucking listening?" Director Wendel's steel-cold voice boomed out of the speakerphone.

"Yes, yes!" Manager Yarn's arrogance and ego from just now were already long gone. He looked at Chuck with a complicated expression, bowed his head, and knelt down!

Although there were a lot of people around, so what? Did he dare to not disobey orders and refuse to kneel? Director Wendel would really kill him!

But!

"Hold on!" Chuck waved his hand to stop him.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Cannon. Just now, it was a misunderstanding..." Manager Yarn was overjoyed and hurried to deliver a cigarette to Chuck.

"I think you're mistaken. I don't want you to kneel down. You... you kneel down to Yvette and slap yourself ten times!" Chuck ordered coldly.

Manager Yarn was stunned again, his face burning in shame as though someone had just slapped him!

He turned his head and looked at Yvette who was equally stunned, his expression freezing into place. It would not be a big deal if he knelt down to Chuck since he was a man. However, Yvette was a woman, and it would be a disgrace for him to kneel down to a woman!

"Still not listening to Chuck? If so, be ready to say goodbye to your legs! I'll break them the minute you get back!" Director Wendel threatened once again.

"Don't, I'll kneel!" Manager Yarn was so scared that his face turned pale. He immediately knelt down in front of Yvette.

She was stunned without words.

"Clap!"

Manager Yarn raised his hand and slapped his face, the loud slaps echoing throughout the corridor. Some people who were nearby started to gather around to see what was going on. They were all puzzled, what was going on? As they saw the once high and mighty director kneeling on the ground and slapping himselves, they started whispering and snickering.

The slaps continued.

Yvette could clearly hear the slapping sounds in her ear, reminding her that this wasn't a dream. Slowly, she could feel the unease and disappointment in her heart vanish, replaced by an unexplainable sense of comfort. Yes, Chuck did fulfill his promise of helping her!

She was on cloud nine and had to constantly remind her that she wasn't dreaming. She turned and looked at Chuck.

Soon after, Manager Yarn's cheeks were red and swollen.

The onlookers laughed at him, which made him even more ashamed as he lowered his head and tried to cover his face!

"I know this man, he is the manager of the square! How could he kneel down to a woman and slap himself? It must be this woman's boyfriend who made the manager kneel down! Her boyfriend is really amazing!"

"Yeah! I heard that this manager is often very perverted and loves to harass people. I'm pretty sure he must've harassed this woman, but didn't expect her boyfriend to be someone with so much authority! The guy's so handsome, plus he has connections too! Why don't I have such a boyfriend?"

The envious voices of the onlookers seemed to hope that Chuck was their boyfriends instead.

Yvette couldn't help herself but stare at Chuck. She couldn't believe that the little boy that she had known for so long had actually grown up, and was now even able to help her get back at someone.

This man, who had slept with her for almost ten years, and used to be her husband!

Her gaze was fixated on Chuck for a few seconds before she avoided his eyes: why didn't she find him so attractive before? Especially just now.

She felt different from before. What was this feeling?

Manager Yarn turned his head. "Mr. Cannon, is that enough?"

"What do you think, Yvette?" Chuck asked.

"Ah? That's enough." Yvette Jordan came to her senses in a hurry, blushing furiously on her face.
