Chapter 314
Chapter 314
Chuck had no choice but to calm Quinn and Regine down. Chuck felt a little guilty towards Quinn due to what happened last night, so he pulled her aside first.
If they continued to argue, how will they be able to be on the same flight together?
"What are you doing? Let go!" Quinn struggled angrily and swung Chuck's hand away. "Why did you let her come with us?"
Quinn was extremely upset about the whole thing. Last night, he took her as someone else. Now, he let someone else join their trip. The point was that this woman was so young, she was about the same age as Chuck. Quinn was older than both of them.
She felt that she was out of place all of a sudden.
"She's my classmate and she has her own business to deal with over there. We are just going to Floriland together," Chuck explained. He thought that Regine must have something to do over there. Why else would she be going to Floriland?
They were just going to Floriland together at the same time and he didn't care much for her.
"President Miller, don't be angry. If you're angry, you won't look good. Plus, you'll have wrinkles on your face," Chuck tried to please her.
He just wanted to board the flight as soon as possible. If it continues to drag on like this, there won't be enough time to go through the security check.
"Hmph, do I need you to flatter me?" Quinn snorted.
Chuck breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really kind of you, President Miller."
Quinn was still very easy to coax, at least that was what Chuck began to think so.
"F*ck you," Quinn was angry. She warned, "Let me tell you, I have my own business to do in Floriland as well. She'd better not be following around."
"Okay, I'll go and tell her," Chuck said. Then, he went to talk to Regine alone.
Quinn snorted. Seeing that Chuck went to comfort Regine just like he did with herself, she got angry again. Quinn didn't want to watch anymore and she walked over to the elevator entrance with her luggage.
Fortunately, Regine curled her lips and agreed reluctantly. Although she didn't feel good about it, she did not make a commotion. She asked in a whisper, "Chuck, do you like older women?"
"Why do you say that?" Chuck was surprised at her question.
"If you didn't like older women then why did you bring Quinn along?" She replied. Regine turned to look at Quinn and muttered in her heart, "She just has bigger boobs, isn't it? I'll have the same if I was at her age."
"Quinn also has something to do over there at Floriland, so we decided to travel together," he explained. It must be a joke. How could he like Quinn? He really had never thought about it. Last night was an accident because he couldn't control himself.
However, Chuck agreed that he did have a thing for older women. Yvette was betrothed to him since they were young and she was about five years older than him. But it was hard to tell that she was older. She had such a young look, delicate skin, and a good personality. How could Chuck not like her? And Willa... she was also older than Chuck.
"But I don't think Yvette is considered an older woman... Auntie Logan too. She's not even married yet," he thought.
"Then you have to promise me that you won't fall for Quinn," Regine said seriously.
He was speechless and he found it funny. What was Regine thinking? Chuck certainly did what she said, but he muttered, "Why did you want me to say that?"
"Why not? It's just a sentence. Oh, stop talking. Let's go to the security check quickly," Regine quickly brushed off the topic as she blushed and her heart beat faster. Right, why did she have to ask him to make such a promise?
Regine took her luggage and went to the elevator. Chuck let out a sigh of relief. Then, the three of them went up the elevator. After passing through the security check, they waited for the departure and got on the plane after a while.
Of course, they were all in first-class seats.
After taking a nap, they soon arrived at Floriland. Everyone went out of the airport. Chuck called Betty and asked her about Yvette's location in Floriland.
After all, Floriland was so big, it was impossible for him to search for Yvette everywhere. If he did, it might take him a few years and he would've still failed to find her in the end. Betty said, "Young Master, at this time, the two people who I sent to follow Yvette are still tailing her. I will send you the exact location later at night." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
The main reason was that Betty didn't know how to tell Chuck. After all, Yvette had been beaten up by her cousin, and the two spies had watched it happen. If she told Chuck, he would get angry for sure.
Betty thought it was better to be cautious.
What's more, she couldn't get in touch with the two people who were monitoring Yvette. For the time being, Betty had to figure out a way.
"Young Master, you'd better have fun in Floriland," Betty said.
Chuck didn't have the mood to do that. He shrugged it off and decided to find a place to eat first. He really wanted to see Yvette or it would be difficult for him to go to sleep later that night.
Hanging up the phone, Betty immediately tried to contact the two who were monitoring Yvette. But a few minutes later, Betty felt something bad was about to happen...
"I'm starving. Let's go eat," Regine suggested. She had made an appointment with her friends here, but she was only meeting up with them later.
Chuck had to consider what Quinn wanted too. She was expressionless, and Chuck could only comfort her. Quinn snorted, "You don't need to put in a good word. Anyway, as long as you're with her, I will go explore by myself and won't be with you."
Chuck thought that the idea was okay. Anyway, Chuck was not in the mood and he didn't even have time to explore.
"Alright, President Miller, you can go and have fun," Chuck said.
"You b*stard! You're getting rid of me to hang out with this girl, right?" Quinn was angry as she seethed. Chuck didn't even try to comfort her but agreed for her to be alone. How could he say that? Was he asking her to go away?
"No, you're the one who said that," Chuck frowned as he replied. He was at an utter loss. How could Quinn be so unreasonable all of a sudden? She had said it herself that she was going to stroll around alone!
"Fine, you disgusting person! Have fun, b*stard!" Quinn spat and dragged her suitcase out angrily, got into a car and left.
Chuck heaved a sigh of relief. The car she entered was a Mercedes-Benz private car, which should have been arranged by Quinn. After all, she was so rich, and there must be someone that she knew in Floriland.
That was right, Quinn must've already arranged the schedule last night. She wanted to relax as well, but Chuck had only said so, which made Quinn angry. "You can do whatever you want. I have several estates in Floriland. But you brought some other women with you, then what about me? You can go to h*ll!" She cried to herself.
Quinn closed her eyes in anger.
The driver said, "President Miller, you have ordered a set of couple meal in the restaurant and it has already been prepared for you. According to your request, the red wine is a bottle of 1982 Lafite. The steak is also air-lifted from the United States. You..."
"No, I don't want it anymore!" Quinn interrupted him furiously.
"But the restaurant had already prepared it," the driver whispered timidly. This was Quinn's restaurant. She had made a call last night.
"Then I'll eat alone," Quinn snorted.
The driver was surprised. What was wrong with President Miller?
Seeing Quinn left angrily in a sudden, Regine grinned and asked, "Why did she leave?"
Chuck rolled his eyes at her, "What does it have to do with you?"
Regine curled her lip and said, "I'm just asking. Whatever, let's go and eat. I know a place where the dishes are really delicious."
Chuck was hungry, so he agreed. Regine had been to Floriland for many times, so she took Chuck and departed. However, as soon as they departed, Chuck's mobile phone rang. It was a call from Quinn. Chuck answered with confusion, "President Miller, you..."
"Chuck, I'm asking you, do you want to be with that girl?" Quinn asked straightforwardly. The more Quinn thought about it, the angrier she became. Why? Everything was prepared by her, why should she eat alone?
"No, I'll separate ways with her later." Chuck had planned to do so.
"Well, I'll wait for you for an hour. After you've separated ways with her, I'll send a car to pick you up, and then... we will eat together," Quinn said.
Chuck thought, how would there be enough time? Hence, he answered, "We're going to eat now,"
"Then remember to eat more," Quinn said and hung up the phone angrily.
Chuck murmured, "Why is Quinn somehow different now? Why is she so angry for no reason?" Earlier, Quinn was talking while gnashing her teeth in anger. Chuck didn't understand and wondered, "Is Quinn on her period? Is that why she is in such a bad mood?
Chuck shook his head and could not be bothered. He followed Regine and they took a black car to the place where they were going to eat. Regine kept muttering along the way. For the first time, Chuck felt that women were so annoying. He was too embarrassed to say it, so he could only endure it. When he arrived at the restaurant, Chuck finished his meal in a hurry and was ready to separate ways with Regine.
"What did you say?" Regine was shocked to find out his plan and felt somewhat wronged. She said incredulously, "You promised me to come to Floriland, and now you are going to leave after having a meal?"
Regine was so upset. She had thought about where to go with Chuck after they ate. She had even appointed her friends and expected to spend at least a week over there.
"Well, I still have other things to do," Chuck said directly.
"How can you do this?" Regine felt so wronged that she was about to cry.
