My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 497

Chuck asked in concern, "Auntie Logan, are you hungry? I'll buy you something."

Chuck was actually quite surprised. Willa was such a strong woman, but she never lost her temper with him. Instead, she was always smiling as if she was always in a pleasant mood.

"I'm fine. You should go and rest. You're injured too," Willa shook her head. She was worried that Chuck would collapse.

"I won't, I want to stay with you, Auntie Logan. Can I?" Chuck was reluctant to leave her. He only wanted to accompany Auntie Logan since he had almost lost her a while ago.

Willa smiled gently, "Sure, you can rest on the bed there."

"No, I want to hold your hand."

Chuck wanted to feel Willa's warmth. He was afraid that she would lose her pulse and warmth out of a sudden. He would regret it for life.

"Alright," Willa was willing to do whatever she could if Chuck asked.

Chuck held her hand and closed his eyes contentedly. It felt quite comfortable and peaceful, as though he was sleeping on Willa's lap.

Willa's hand was unexpectedly soft and supple. Chuck had imagined her hands to feel as tough and rough since she had been training for some time. Since Willa was so skilled, her body would be buff and her muscles well-toned.

Yet, it was the exact opposite of what he felt. He fell asleep soon, snoring softly as though he was sleeping on a soft pillow.

When Willa saw Chuck finally falling asleep from the exhaustion, she was relieved. It was only then that she touched her lips peculiarly. She had a feeling that someone touched her lips when she had lost consciousness... Was it just her imagination?

Probably.

Willa smiled. It was nice to see him sleep like a baby...

Maybe that was a sign of him finally feeling at ease!

Willa woke up quite early the next morning, but Chuck was still sleeping soundly. Since she was quite physically fit, she only felt a slight ache in her body after the operation. She had regained most of her strength back and could probably walk in a few days with enough rest.

When she saw Chuck stirring in his sleep, she couldn't help but chuckle. This kid had slept with his hand in hers for the whole night...

Chuck woke up in a daze. When he saw Willa, he felt at ease. She definitely looked better compared to before.

He reluctantly let go of Willa's hands, unable to believe he had held her hands so tightly for a whole night.

"Auntie Logan, I will get you something to eat," Chuck stood up and announced.

"Okay."

"Auntie Logan, what do you want to eat?"

"I'll eat whatever you order, Chucky."

Chuck walked out with ease, only then remembering that he had left Yvette sleeping on the seats out in the corridor overnight. He was touched and also remorseful to have forgotten about his wife. She must've been cold and tired.

He walked over and gently carried her in his arms. Yvette was startled and woke up, realizing it was Chuck. She sighed in relief and leaned her head against his chest, mumbling, "Hubby..."

She tried to tell herself it was fine, that it was alright for Chuck to have forgotten about her. Ultimately, her feelings overwhelmed her, and she was slightly upset.

However, she didn't express it. Willa was seriously injured, so it was fine for Chuck to accompany her instead. As a proper wife, it was her duty to wait for him patiently.

"I'm sorry for last night," Chuck said with guilt.

Yvette shook her head, her face blushing as she assured him, "It's alright, Hubby. By the way, where are you carrying me to?"

Was he having lecherous thoughts again?

"You need proper rest," Chuck said as he requested for a room in the ward. Since this was Willa's hospital, they could stay as long as they wanted.

He carried Yvette into the room and placed her on a bed. Then, he kissed Yvette on the forehead and said, "Sleep well. I'll order breakfast for you."

"Okay."

Just as he was about to leave, Yvette tugged on his sleeve bashfully and asked, "Hubby, could you stay with me for a while?"

She was about to get hunted down by killers. By then, she would have to go in hiding, with no way to see Chuck for a long time.

Chuck already felt guilty for leaving her alone for the whole night, so he agreed. He lay down on Yvette's bed and made small talk with her. It was as though they had gone back to the past.

After a while, Chuck came out of the room and went to order breakfast. Along the way, Cheryl called him and he picked up her call.

She asked anxiously, "Hello, Mr. Cannon, have you found Frieda?"

She couldn't get a wink of sleep the whole night!

Her nudes were still in Frieda's phone, and they could be spread any second. Last night, she did nothing but refresh the news to check if her photos had gone viral.
