My Billionaire Mom

Chuck's appearance made most of Yvette Jordan's ex-classmates think twice of their predictions from just now. He looked like a poor loser who wasn't able to support Yvette. She was probably the one supporting him instead.

"Lincoln, here's the money for our share of the bill." Yvette handed the money that she had prepared over to her ex-classmate.

Lincoln Collins, the class monitor, shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. Matthew paid for this reunion."

Yvette was shocked. However, she knew that Matthew Yallopp came from an extremely rich family. His net worth was probably more than a few billion dollars.

Just then, a handsome young man sat down and smiled at her.

Yvette nodded and said, "Thank you."

Matthew shrugged his shoulders in reply.

"Oh yeah, Matthew, you've earned a lot of money recently, haven't you? I heard it's more than 30 million dollars, am I right?" One of the classmates said with envy.

Matthew smiled and said, "More or less."

"Congratulations! 30 million? No wonder. We can't just eat today, we have to also go to the bar later."

"That's right. You should invite all of us for some fun since you earn big bucks now."

The classmates were surprised and filled with jealousy. He belonged to a rich family and was a smart businessman. They admired him for being able to earn 30 million dollars at one time. None of the classmates were able to earn as much as Matthew even if they spent the rest of their lives working.

They envied him.

"No problem. Let's eat first," Matthew said. He didn't care at all. After all, it was really just a small sum of money to him.

"Come on, let's all sit down."

The manager smiled and said, "Matthew has ordered our hotel's most famous dishes for everyone. The most expensive one is worth more than 3 thousand dollars." "What? So expensive?"

"It's expensive to us, but it must be nothing to Matthew, right?"

"That's true. Thank you, Matthew. I've never eaten such an expensive dish before!"

"Me too. I'm so glad that you're my classmate."

Everyone was busy praising Matthew and trying to get his attention.

Matthew smiled, "It's my pleasure. Enjoy the food and have fun! It's all on me."

"Wow! I'm in luck."

The students were surprised.

"Stop talking and let's take a seat." The manager made the arrangements.

"Hubby, let's sit down too," Yvette suggested. Chuck was also feeling a little hungry, so he sat down with Yvette.

Although it was a four-star hotel, it was still incomparable to his mother's hotel. Chuck glanced around and tried to analyze the area himself since this hotel had good business. It was beneficial for him to learn about other people's business anyways.

After all, Chuck intended to earn some money from the movie he invested in at the plaza. With that amount of money, he could invest in other businesses, like a hotel. That was his plan anyways.

"Hubby, don't be shy. It's okay." Yvette noticed Chuck glancing around. She thought that Chuck was not used to this kind of situation. If he was, she would feel bad for bringing him here. She couldn't bear to let her husband feel upset and out-of-place.

Chuck smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Yvette breathed a sigh of relief.

One of the classmates chuckled, "Yvette, seems like your husband hasn't been here before. He looks a little reserved. Take it easy. We're all classmates,"

"Yeah." Yvette nodded. She looked at Chuck who was beside her, and she was relieved at how confident he looked.

"Come on, the dishes are here. Let's eat!" The manager said.

The dishes were served one by one. The students started to salivate at the sight of the dishes. It was rare for them to enjoy themselves so extravagantly.

Everyone began to eat, and some took photos to post on social media. Some of the boys began to drink. Yvette whispered, "Hubby, you're not driving later, so would you like a drink?"

Chuck thought for a moment. He figured that since his tolerance wasn't high, some practice would do him good.

Yvette stood up and poured Chuck a glass. She was afraid that he would be embarrassed, but the class monitor, Lincoln, smiled and said, "Yvette, I thought you're driving? Are you sure you want to drink?" "I'm not drinking, my husband is."

"By the way, is your husband still studying? I heard that you are a teacher. Is he your student?"

"Wow, are you guys in a teacher and student relationship?! That's cool!"

The students laughed, and Yvette replied, "Yes, he's my student, but we grew up together. I asked him to apply to the school I taught at."

"Childhood sweethearts? What's your age?"

"I'm a freshman."

"Then he shouldn't be drinking now. What if he starts drinking now and becomes a heavy drinker in the future?"

"Why can't a freshman drink? He wants to drink, so just let him be." Yvette grabbed the alcohol and poured her husband a glass. After pouring half a glass, she asked, "Hubby, is this enough?" "Yes, that's enough," Chuck replied. He didn't want to drink too much either. Just a taste would be enough.

Yvette put the bottle down and grabbed some food for Chuck.

Lincoln frowned and the other students jeered, "You love your little husband so much?"

"Stop it," Matthew said.

"Forget it, you should all know that Yvette cannot take jokes. That's enough. Come on, raise your glasses everyone, let's toast! Let's thank Matthew for his hospitality today." The manager raised his glass. Everyone stood up to toast Matthew. Yvette drank juice and Chuck raised his glass as well.

"Don't mention it. Please help yourselves. Order more if you please," Matthew said.

A female classmate hurriedly raised her hand and said, "Wow, thank you. I want to place more orders. I heard that there is a very delicious dish here."

"Go ahead," Matthew smiled.

Yvette felt that the dishes were enough, but she still asked Chuck, "Hubby, would you like to eat anything else?"

"No, I'm good." Chuck shook his head, then took a sip of the alcohol. He was so hungry that he had already begun to eat. The other students continued to order. After all, it was a rare opportunity for them. Halfway through the meal, Yvette saw one of her ex-classmates leave for the bathroom. She was the one with a lawyer as her husband. Yvette got up and decided to follow suit. She said, "Hubby, I need to go out for a while. Enjoy the food."

Chuck nodded. He knew that she had been taking too much care of him. "Honey, go ahead."

"Okay," Yvette said. When they arrived at the bathroom, the female classmate looked at her in surprise and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I have a question to ask your husband," Yvette blurted.

"Okay, why don't you tell me about it first." The female student scanned Yvette from head to toe.

"Here's the thing. I borrowed a loan, but..."

The female classmate's eyes narrowed slightly. The thought of her being so poor as to get a loan bothered her. She told Yvette, "Okay, go on...'

"

In the meantime, Chuck felt that he was almost full. Seeing that Yvette had gone out, the classmates decided to tease Chuck. The class monitor Lincoln brought the alcohol over and filled up Chuck's glass. Chuck was stunned.

"You should at least show your respect to our boss today, right?" Lincoln said. "You wouldn't have the chance to enjoy such a good meal without Yvette."

"Well, yes, that's true," Chuck nodded, picked up his glass and said. "Thank you for your hospitality."

Matthew glanced at Chuck and did not intend to return the toast. He completely ignored Chuck.

Lincoln smiled, patted Chuck's shoulder, and snickered, "Haha, I forgot to tell you that not everyone can give a toast to Matthew. Ordinary people don't have the right to do so. I'm sorry, I forgot..." The other students all laughed and mocked Chuck.

Some of the guys had drank a bit too much and their faces started to turn red. They took the opportunity to tease Chuck for marrying their high school crush. They didn't really like him because of this, and were taking this opportunity to lay off some steam.

A smile appeared at the corner of Matthew's mouth. He used to like Yvette as well. This was why he organised the class reunion. He just wanted to show himself off in hopes of winning her heart. However, he didn't expect that Yvette would bring her husband with her. Of course he felt unhappy.

Chuck glanced at Lincoln and said, "It's alright."

He put down the glass. Lincoln then smiled and said, "Even though you can't drink with Matthew, you should thank him for this meal. Finish the alcohol! You wouldn't want to waste it, right? This bottle of wine costs more than a thousand dollars!"

"Yes, since we're all so happy today, you should finish this," Everyone agreed together. They all thought that Yvette's husband was a loser.
