My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 390

It was the first time Chuck had been absent from class so the students were gossiping about by themselves. Lara was feeling particularly upset. Did something happen to Chuck? Was that why he didn't come?

Why hasn't he replied to the WhatsApp messages?

Lara did not have the mood to study anymore. She longed to call Chuck, but she was afraid that he would not answer the phone. She held her chin up with her hands as she daydreamed.

One of her classmates was sneaking dirty looks at her. When Lara had caught on, she immediately got angry and yelled, "What are you looking at! Get lost!"

The whole class really is filled with perverts. Only Chuck could look at her like that!

Her body had tensed straight with anger. As Abigail walked in, she noticed the empty seat in the corner where Chuck usually sat in. "Is Chuck absent today?" she questioned in her head.

She thought more about it after class. Then, she decided that she would ask about it. After all, she was specially hired to teach Chuck.

"Everyone, let's begin," Abigail said.

Zelda, on the other hand, had the same uneasy feeling. Chuck had promised to return back home with her the day before, but he had suddenly cancelled their plans. He had said that he couldn't make it and so, she had been bombarded with calls by her mother about their absence.

Zelda found an excuse to fool her mother, but it was already noon. "Could Chuck spare some time today then? Is he busy? Would I disturb him if I were to call now?" she wondered.

Zelda sighed. At this time, the phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and nearly yelled in frustration because it was her mother calling again. She didn't know what to say, but she had to answer it. Otherwise, her mother would continue to call, annoying her to death. And so, she answered the phone. Sure enough, it was her mother asking her why she hadn't come to visit her yet.

"Mom, Chuck is busy now... No, no, I didn't break up with him. It's fine. In a few days, when Chuck is done with his work, I will bring him back with me. Yes, I know..." After hanging up the phone, Zelda's eyes were dimmed. She lay her head on the table helplessly and thought, "Chuck, what are you busy with?"

Chuck had now been absent for three days. Lara couldn't get in touch with him and all the other students' discussions about him were getting to her. They said that Chuck did not want to continue his studies anymore, and that he was too lazy to study at the university since he was wealthy already.

There were some who even said that Chuck's family might have gone bankrupt and he couldn't afford to study in the university anymore.

All sorts of speculation were thrown about.

Lara was getting less interested in school because Chuck wasn't there anymore.

Aaron smirked as he was glad that Chuck had been absent all this while. He thought Chuck had felt too embarrassed to show up because perhaps Frieda had taken her revenge on him as well, so he had chosen not to come.

“What a classic rich fellow. Let's see how soon your family goes bankrupt!”

"You'd better flaunt all your money everywhere, spend it all. By the time you end up with nothing, I swear I'll have you bowing at my feet!" he vowed in his mind.

Aaron smiled coldly as he set himself a new goal. After all, there were four campus belles in the school. Since he was done with Frieda, there were still the three other girls waiting for him.

......

During these three days, Chuck had been stuck in the hotel. The entire staff was protecting him day in and day out. However, Black Rose did not seem to make an appearance anywhere. What did she have planned?

Chuck couldn't figure it out. He could only stay in the presidential suite every day and didn't dare to go anywhere else. He wanted to see how she would get to him like this.

Yvette already knew about Chuck's situation. She had stayed by his side day and night. She wanted to protect him.

Willa didn't move from her spot as well, staying close to Chuck. If Black Rose appeared, Willa would be able to dispose of her.

She had stayed in the hotel for three days. She didn't get much sleep, neither did Betty.

"Hubby, aren't you scared?" Yvette asked. Chuck's forced calm composure made her heart ache. She thought that this Duncan fellow was too abominable.

"No, I'm alright," Chuck smiled in response. These past three days were honestly going great for him. Yvette had listened to him and did whatever he wanted.

It was in fact, very enjoyable.

Chuck held Yvette in his arms, her face flushed red with worry. She murmured, "Hubby, you have to restrain yourself. When Black Rose comes, how can you run when your legs are weak?"
