Chapter 219
Quinn Miller was ashamed and angry. When had she ever been reprimanded by a man like this? "What on earth do you want to do? Are you trying to stalk them and beat them up?" Quinn asked.
"What does it have to do with you?" Chuck Cannon thought about it for a long time and decided to go in and have a look. Waiting here wasn't a choice either.
He opened the door and got out of the car. However, he turned back and said, "You should leave. Don't stay in my car."
Quinn narrowed her eyes. She took out a card and said, "Do you think I won't be able to afford a car worth several hundreds of thousands? Don't look down on me. I'll buy your car." Chuck ignored her and went straight in.
As for Quinn, she received a call from her new assistant in the car.
"Well, I'm fine. You... don't have to follow me here. No need to pick me up either, I'm in the car." Then, she hung up the call.
Sitting in this car, she felt fine. At least there was a sense of security.
She was suddenly surprised with that thought. Was it because he had saved her twice?
Quinn shook her head. She was bored and played around with her mobile phone while she waited for Chuck. As she did not sleep well night before, she quickly dozed off.
She had another dream.
In her dreams, she was once again doing it with that person......
Huh!
Quinn opened her eyes and felt discomfort in her pants. She was embarrassed, what was wrong with her?
She looked out of the window in a daze. That disgusting man had saved her twice. Quinn didn't even know if there was something wrong with him or with her. She should've stormed out of the car by now, but why didn't she?
What was she doing here?
She was so bored that she just waited for him.
Right then, she saw Chuck coming out of the room and she was instantly relieved. Wait a minute, was she worried about him just now?
Chuck opened the car door and got in. His presence seemed to lighten up the mood in the car.
"How was it?" Quinn asked subconsciously.
"What does it have to do with you?" Chuck started the car engine and smirked. He found out that Dread was a frequent customer there. After spending some money bribing the staff, Chuck managed to find out where Dread's usury company was.
Hence, he made up his mind. Not only was he going to make Dread cough up all the money, he was going to wipe off his company from the face of the earth.
He was going to crush Dread completely.
Who asked him to plot against his wife?
Chuck drove his car back. He had to first come up with a plan.
Hearing Chuck's impatient words, Quinn frowned but remained silent. She sat quietly in his car. When they drove past a hotel, she suddenly spoke, "Drop me off here."
Chuck did not speak and just stopped his car at the side of the road. Quinn opened the door and went out. However, Chuck noticed that the seat was wet. What was this? Was the weather too hot? "Hey!" Chuck called Quinn and pointed to the spot on the car seat.
Quinn looked back. When she saw it, her face turned red. She had left a stain on the car when she had that dream just now.
"Sorry, I was careless when I was drinking water just now... I'll compensate you." Quinn stammered as she took out a card. She had never felt so humiliated.
He probably didn't know, did he? She was nervous. If he found out, she would definitely collapse.
Chuck didn't want to talk to her anymore. Why was she so careless? And who would want to accept her money?
He got out of the car, took out a tissue and wiped the seat clean. Then he threw the tissues into a trash can on the side of the road. Seeing Chuck's actions, Quinn was so embarrassed that her face turned redder. How could he......
Chuck drove away without saying another word.
Looking at Chuck's car leaving in the distance, Quinn barely managed to keep her cool. She couldn't let him know what happened just now, or he'd never let go of the chance to laugh at her forever. Quinn calmed down, but she kept looking in Chuck's direction. What was wrong with her?
"Humph, you don't seem to be so disgusting anymore..." Quinn murmured to herself. She then turned around and went into the hotel. She had to take a good bath...
Chuck went back to the plaza and found out where Dread's company was located. He could check it out tonight, but it was still early. So, he brought Yolanda Lane along to check out the vacant shop house that was up for rent.
It was situated quite strategically, as expected for a place where its transfer fee was already almost 1 million dollars. Both of them was quite pleased with the shop, so Chuck quickly paid them and bought the store. Hiding the contract in his jacket, Chuck planned to give Yvette a surprise.
Besides that, he was also going to give her company back to her.
Chuck called Yvette and asked her where she was. She told him she was still discussing with the higher-ups of a company, which meant that she was still looking for a job. Chuck smiled and asked her to go home. He was hungry.
Yvette said, "Okay, hubby, wait for a while. I've found a new job. Someone's going to bring me around so I'll be back soon."
Chuck agreed and hung up the phone. He didn't know how Yvette would react when she knew that he had helped her retrieve her company and even gave her a new shop.
Chuck sent Yolanda back to the plaza and happened to see Queenie Carson. She was just about to head home, so Chuck offered to give her a ride. After all, he had a car and it wasn't a big bother to him. Queenie bit her lip as she got into Chuck's car.
Chuck sent her home. When she got home, Chuck wanted to see if she needed anything, so he followed her upstairs. Queenie opened the door and invited him in. Chuck noticed her sister wasn't home, and even saw her clothes that she was drying on the balcony. He cleared his throat awkwardly.
He was a little embarrassed. Why did he follow her?
"Um, I'll leave first." Chuck said awkwardly. The two of them were alone in the same room and he couldn't help but think of the events that night.
"Okay." Queenie lowered her head and Chuck walked to the door. She plucked up her courage and hugged him from behind, saying, "Stay for a while. Just a while, okay?"
Queenie had been accused unfairly at work today She usually would endure it quietly, but Chuck happened to send her back. She couldn't help but think of that night just like Chuck did...
She was as impulsive as she was that night.
Chuck fell silent. He felt sorry for Queenie. He had asked her to help him get off when she herself didn't have a boyfriend. He could not find a way to repay her, so the only way he could compensate her was by giving her this house.
Chuck asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Queenie must have been wronged. Otherwise, she wouldn't be as bold as to make a move that was out of the ordinary.
"Stay here for a while." Queenie held Chuck in her arms.
Chuck sighed softly. He wasn't refusing her, but it was just the way Queenie was hugging him. He had been training recently and didn't have Zelda Maine help him get off, so his physiological reaction was instant.
Queenie felt the bulge as well and plucked up her courage like that night. She asked, "Didn't Teacher Jordan help you?"
Chuck was embarrassed. It was not because Yvette was unwilling to do so, but because Chuck wanted Yvette to see him at his strongest. He had restrained himself from then onwards.
"Do you want me to help you like I did last time?" Queenie blushed and said shyly.
Chuck shook his head awkwardly. He had not thought of that initially, but ever since she started hugging him just now, he could feel his determination stripping away. After all, Queenie was pretty and had a voluptuous figure. In addition, she had the vigour of a 20-year-old woman.
However, before he could say anything, someone knocked on the door. Both Chuck and Queenie were startled. Queenie quickly loosened her embrace, thinking that her sister was back. She whispered, "Chuck, it's not good for my sister to see you like this. You should go to the washroom..."
Chuck was embarrassed since it wasn't ethical in the first place. He hurried to the washroom and soon heard the sound of Queenie opening the door. Then, he heard her exclaim, "Teacher Jordan?" Chuck, who was in the bathroom, was taken aback. Didn't Yvette say that she had just found a new job and was looking around the company? Why was she here?"
He was the one who had bought her house after all!
It was Yvette who was outside. She had found a job at a real-estate agency today, so her colleague brought her to take a look at one of the houses on sale. Coincidentally, it was in the neighborhood where she used to live in. When she was about to leave, she saw Chuck's car and wondered why he was here.
With that in mind, she tried knocking the door of her old house. She didn't think much. If it was vacant, she would leave straight away. However, the door opened, and she was shocked to see Queenie...
Yvette was shocked. She remembered that Chuck had found a place for Queenie to live in, but why here? What was going on? Was Chuck the one who bought her previous house?
