My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 424

Yvette was astounded. What was going on?

Did this hotel really belong to Chuck?

When did he buy it? Yvette did not know about this at all!

She should have realized it long before. When Patricia had mentioned the name Mr. Cannon, she should have known that she was referring to Chuck.

After all, there weren't many people with the surname Cannon in the world.

However, when had Chuck become Landon's enemy?

Did Chuck's mother, Karen, have more power than the Allen family?

Yvette was taken aback by this surprising piece of knowledge. Karen was too amazing.

This meant that the person Patricia was looking for was Chuck. But how did they know each other?

What kind of relationship did they have?

Would Chuck end up helping Patricia?

Other than this, what else did Chuck buy without telling her?

Yvette's mind was a mess. This was beyond her expectations!

"Teacher Jordan..." Yolanda started to waved her hand in front of Yvette to catch her attention. She wondered why her ex-teacher looked so caught by surprise.

Frankly speaking, while Yolanda knew of Chuck's capabilities, she was still shocked to find that he had bought this hotel. After all, Yolanda knew that Chuck had a strong background but she didn't expect him to be so powerful. Even the Four Greatest Households had to put their heads down and give in to him.

Yolanda felt that she knew less and less about Chuck with each passing day but she knew for certain that the best decision she had made in her life was to follow his lead.

"Teacher Jordan..." Yolanda prompted again.

"Huh?" Yvette finally replied, having come to her senses. She looked back at the hotel and asked, "Is Chuck here?"

"No. He left a long while ago," Yolanda replied.

That made sense. It was already very late.

Chuck was bound to be in bed right now.

"Teacher Jordan, why don't you call Chuck and ask him?" Yolanda asked as she felt somewhat puzzled. Why was Yvette here in the dead of night?

"There's no need for that," Yvette said while shaking her head. Patricia still hadn't come out yet, so she must be calling Chuck over the phone at this moment.

There was no point for her to call him if that was the case. She wouldn't be able to get through.

"Yolanda, could you help me out with something?" Yvette asked solemnly.

"Teacher Jordan, don't say that. Whatever you need, just let me know. After all, you are my lady boss," Yolanda smiled as she replied.

Yvette's face turned red at that. Lady boss?

Yes, she was Chuck's wife. So naturally, she would be declared as such, but...

"It's nothing serious, but could you not tell Chuck that you've seen me here?" Yvette said. She could not let Chuck know that she had become an assassin. It would make him worry.

"Teacher Jordan, may I ask why?" Yolanda asked, taken aback. Why would Yvette make such a request?

"I don't want Chuck to know what I'm doing," Yvette admitted.

"I don't understand... But it's alright, don't worry. I won't tell if you don't want me to," Yolanda reassured.

"Thank you," Yvette said and felt relieved.

"It's nothing. Here, have something to eat." Yolanda offered Yvette some food that she had bought just now.

Yvette opened her mouth to refuse but Yolanda had stuffed the food into her hand before she could speak. "Enjoy. I'll buy another one," said Yolanda before leaving.

With a beaming smile, she went back to buy more food.

Yvette was indeed very hungry. After eating Yolanda's midnight snack, she felt content and continued to wait in the car. She pondered on how Patricia was going to pitch her problem to Chuck.

Soon, she watched Patricia exit the hotel and got in the car.

"So... What did Mr. Cannon say? Did he agree?" Yvette asked, looking at Patricia. She looked conflicted. What did this mean?

Could it be that Chuck...

Yvette kept those nasty thoughts to herself. Did he want Patricia to keep him company?

Otherwise, why would Patricia look so conflicted?

Yvette's face had turned sour at this thought. She was jealous.

"He agreed to help me, but..." Patricia trailed off. She was in a dilemma. Chuck didn't ask her to accompany him, instead, he had asked her to take refuge in his place.

Yes, Chuck wasn't interested in Patricia. But why was he helping her?

Was it out of his own goodwill? But Chuck was neither a good Samaritan nor a saint.

Unless Patricia was one of his people...

And so, in return for his protection, Chuck had asked Patricia to work for him for five years!
