My Billionaire Mom

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.

The whole night passed peacefully, but Cheryl was already on the verge of breaking down. She couldn't hold herself back and called Chuck to see if there were any updates.

Her anxiety was maxed out!

"I have those photos with me now. You can come over and watch me delete them," Chuck said.

Cheryl cried with joy, "You got those photos? Thank you, Mr. Cannon. Where are you now? I'll be right there!"

Her worries had lifted and hope had returned to her. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Chuck shared his address with her and hung up the call. Then, he went downstairs and gave Betty a call.

Once the call was connected, Chuck ordered coldly, "Betty, help me find Black Rose. Find her no matter what it takes!"

Black Rose was the main culprit for Willa's injury. Not to mention, that b*tch, Frieda Olmedo!

Both of them had to die! Especially Frieda!

Chuck never expected her to be so ruthless. He had underestimated her.

"I'm on it!" Betty started her investigation. Soon, she managed to track down Black Rose and Frieda, only to find both of them in the United States.

"Young Master, Black Rose has left the country."

"Where did she go?" Chuck asked coldly.

"If I'm not mistaken, they should have gone back to the United States."

Chuck was stoic. Black Rose was always on the offense in her attempt to assassinate Chuck, while he would mostly be on the receiving end as he tried to defend himself. However, this time it was different. Black Rose shouldn't have hurt Willa!

"Alright, help me book the tickets. I will depart for the United States in a few days!" Chuck was determined to kill Frieda and Black Rose. No more waiting. Even if they returned to the United States, he was going to hunt them down and kill them, once and for all!

Chuck already had a way to force Black Rose to show up the moment he arrived in the States. He had checked Frieda's phone and found out there were a lot of photos of Black Rose other than Cheryl's.

He could definitely force Black Rose to reveal herself with these photos.

When the time came, he would set traps for her so she wouldn't be able to escape!

Betty reminded him, "Young Master, President Lee requested you to stay in the country."

It would be dangerous for Chuck to be in the United States simply because Brayden Lee and the Lee family would be around.

It was even direr since Karen had cut off her ties with the Lee family.

To leave for the United States without a plan and a strong backing was too risky.

Chuck's eyes were bloodshot as he insisted, "Betty, I'm going to the United States to kill Black Rose myself! Auntie Logan was injured and she almost died..."

Betty was shocked, "What? Alright, Young Master, I will make preparations for you right away. Young Master, how strong are you now? The United States is a dangerous place!" She was furious, unable to believe that Willa had almost lost her life because of Black Rose.

How serious had things become?

"I know," Chuck had made up his mind. He would depart for the United States once Willa was fully recovered. Then, he would hunt down Black Rose and Frieda.

He wanted to kill them both, especially Frieda. He wanted to make sure she got what she deserved before she died a painful death at his hands.

"I'll make the necessary arrangements once I get permission from President Lee."

"Okay," Chuck had no objection to it. Of course, she had to ask his mother first.

Chuck hung up. Meanwhile, Betty immediately made a call to Karen. Once Karen picked up, she quickly reported, "Something happened to Young Master and President Logan almost died..."

Chuck was about to go back up when Cheryl arrived. She ran over to him and called out urgently, "Mr. Cannon."

He looked at her and nodded, turning on Frieda's phone in front of her. Then, he started deleting the photos one by one. Cheryl was furious and relieved. How insane would Frieda need to be to take so many videos and photos of women?

As the photos were finally erased out of existence, she sighed, glad that everything was now over. She quickly thanked Chuck, "Thank you, Mr. Cannon."

She was thinking about how to repay Chuck while she was on her way. After all, she didn't expect him to go out of his way to help her.

"You can relax now."

"Yes, thank..."

Before Cheryl could finish thanking him, Chuck turned around and went into the elevator. He didn't bother to stay any longer as his only current concern was Willa's safety and health. He refused to waste time on anyone other than her. Speaking of which, he should be having breakfast with Willa now!

Cheryl was dumbfounded. She didn't expect Chuck to interrupt her midway and not even ask her for a favour!

She was relieved, but somehow, she also felt quite disappointed...
