Chapter 223
Dread's men were shocked. Even though they had witnessed with their eyes how their boss had been knocked unconscious by a woman, still, no words could describe how shocked they felt. It was unbelievable! His mouth was even bleeding. Who was this woman?
"How dare you hit my boss?"
"Let's go, boys! How dare her to beat our boss! Let's fight!"
Dread's men rushed over angrily. But before Chuck Cannon could react, deafening and awful screams were heard. Chuck saw that these people couldn't even get close to Willa Logan, and she had beaten them up easily with just one hand. How could her lean perfect arms have such great strength?
It only took her less than three seconds to beat these five men to senseless!
It felt like a dream. Everything happened so quickly. Willa smiled and walked over. She said in a gentle voice, "Chucky, what are they doing? Are they loan sharks?"
"Yes, they are." Chuck looked at Dread pitifully. Although he had fainted, there was a fixed expression of disbelief and fear on his face.
He probably did not expect a tall and beautiful woman like Willa could have knocked him out with just one move.
He must be shocked and scared to death before he fainted.
"Loan sharks? Oh boy! This is horrible."
Willa shook her head, took out her mobile phone and snapped a photo of Dread. She then sent the picture out to someone and said, "Take over this man's usury company! ... Yes, dissolve everything including all of his property. I don't want him to own even a single penny!"
Willa then hung up the phone. Seeing that Chuck was completely taken aback, she smiled and asked gently, "Chucky, are you afraid of me?"
Chuck shook his head.
He was also sick of Dread and his doings. He was just going to ask for a few people from his mother to give Dread a hard lesson and ruin his company, but he didn't expect that Dread was so ignorant and even had the gall to molest Auntie Logan today.
Dread definitely deserved it.
Willa received another call and heard some news.
She was stunned. She put away her mobile phone and asked, "Chucky, you have a grudge against them, right? I'll give all of his company's property to the needy people. And then I'll return all your money back."
Chuck wasn't surprised. A powerful woman like Willa could simply solve everything with just a phone call.
"Thank you, Auntie Logan." Chuck was embarrassed.
"It's no big deal, don't mention it. Now please, let's get some breakfast. I'm hungry. Did you hear my stomach rumbling?" Willa smiled and reached out to touch Chuck's hair. Chuck's heart started thumping wildly. He saw Willa's fair arm, and there was a black strap on her shoulder.
This...
Chuck lowered his head and quickly looked away. "Auntie Logan, let's go downstairs."
"Okay," Willa replied. He was really a good boy.
They took the elevator downstairs.
Half an hour later, Dread woke up in a daze. He found himself in great pain. What was wrong with him? Was he knocked out by a woman just now?
"Useless things! Get up now! All of you!" Dread kicked a few of his men, but they were still unconscious. It seemed like they would need a whole day before they could regain their consciousness.
"How could you, a gigolo, ask that woman to beat me?" Dread shouted angrily. Suddenly, five people wearing suits and sunglasses came out of the elevator.
He was confused and asked, "What's the matter?"
Dread could feel that something bad was going to happen as the five men approached him. "What are you doing? What do you want to do? I'm Dread, the loan shark. What's the matter?" "Well, boy. I'm sorry to say that but from today onwards, you aren't any more!"
One of the men in black grabbed Dread with his big hand. Dread was scared as he screamed in panic. "How dare you attack me?"
Hey!
The man punched Dread's teeth out. He was shocked as he stammered in fear, "Who, who are you? Do you know who I am? I am..."
"It doesn't matter who you are anymore. Do you realize what you had done? You have offended President Logan. Just accept your fate!" The man in black shook his head and said in a cold voice. How could Dread endure his punches? Dread begged for mercy, "Stop, please... What do you want?"
"I'll make you beg for food for the rest of your life!"
Boom!
A punch followed by another punch. All Dread could do was moan helplessly. Soon, he fainted again because of the serious injury. His mind was filled with a single thought before he passed out. Who the hell was President Logan whom he had offended?
Chuck drove Willa to the scenic area and he was in a much better mood. He just received a notification of a transaction from Willa. There were 1.2 million dollars in total. This was the lesson Willa gave Dread. Chuck was relieved. Of course, he would return this money to Yvette Jordan.
They were in the scenic area till the evening. He could tell that Willa did not come to these kinds of places often. With Chuck accompanying her, she laughed cheerfully like a young girl throughout the day. Chuck was stunned most of the time and he couldn't seem to take his eyes off of her.
Willa was charming. Chuck sighed. Who would be the lucky one to be this woman's boyfriend?
Chuck sent Auntie Logan back to the house in the evening. He had to go back today, or else Yvette would start to overthink.
"Auntie Logan, please have a good rest. I'll take you to another place tomorrow." Chuck had made up his mind that he would definitely make this trip a happy one for Willa. He would bring her to another scenic spot tomorrow.
"Okay, I can't wait for it." Willa smiled gently.
Chuck went downstairs. Willa was sitting on the sofa and she took out the book with a smile.
"Chucky is really a big boy. But, Karen, your son is too young. He is not suitable for me. I'd better be his Auntie Logan. You've done enough for us... Dear Chucky, where will you take me to tomorrow?
Chuck drove back. He had just called Yvette. She was already home. Chuck said that he would be back immediately. He drove the car into the community and took the elevator up. He knocked on the door and Yvette opened it.
Yvette's heart was filled with disappointment since the night before. She didn't call Chuck for the whole day, fearing that she might disturb him. Therefore, she was surprised when she received Chuck's call just now. Seeing Chuck now, she felt that she was on cloud nine.
"Hubby, come in!" Yvette pulled Chuck into the house.
When Chuck came in, he felt something was wrong. The way Yvette was looking at him was strange. What was going on?
When Chuck was still confused, his mobile phone rang. Chuck took it out. It was a phone call from Wilbur Wendel. He was puzzled and told Yvette that he would need to answer the call. Of course, Yvette said yes.
He went to the balcony and answered the call.
Wilbur was nervous and embarrassed. He thought of calling Chuck at that time to tell him that the truth had been exposed. However, he was too embarrassed. After being anxious for a whole day, he finally decided to call him.
After listening to what he had said, Chuck was shocked. "What did you say? Did you tell Yvette the truth?"
Oh my God!
Chuck was speechless. What was going on? How did Yvette know his identity when he tried so hard to prevent his "baller" identity from being exposed?
"I'm sorry, Chuck. I'll treat you for a massage tomorrow, okay? You see..." Wilbur was even more embarrassed. He had promised to help Chuck and even said that he could count on him. But at the end of the day, he still screwed the whole thing up.
Chuck sighed. "No, it's fine. I'll call you tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm so sorry!" Wilbur felt guilty.
Chuck said it was alright. He hung up the phone and put it in his pocket. He walked in uneasily with a heavy heart. Yvette knew about his identity, but why didn't she say anything about it? He coughed. "Hubby, come over and have dinner," Yvette said in a gentle voice.
"Honey, I..." Chuck was really nervous. Yvette shook her head and walked towards him. She put her arm around Chuck and kissed him. Then she winked and said, "Would you like me to call you Hubby or Baller? Which one would you like better?"
Chuck was embarrassed. She really knew!
"It's you. You were the one who had helped me all this while. Why didn't you tell me?" Yvette asked gently.
Chuck didn't know what to say. It was too complicated to explain everything. Ever since he saved Yvette, he had added Yvette's social media because he wanted to know how she was doing and also because he wanted to give her some money. But he didn't expect that Yvette remembered him and was grateful to have him in her life. Chuck knew things were getting out of control at that point and that he could no longer let things go on this way. However, as time passed, he couldn't seem to figure out a way to tell her the truth.
"Dear, let's have dinner first... or? Just tell me, I can do anything for you." Yvette whispered with shyness.
