Chapter 326
Yvette didn't expect her mother to have such a good sense of smell.
If Lisa discovered what had happened just now, there would be trouble. Yvette felt too ashamed to face her.
Yvette stood up in a hurry and said, "Mom, you should go to bed early. I am going to the toilet."
As Yvette was about to leave, Lisa stood up with a serious expression. She had to have a good talk with Yvette. Lisa reached out and grabbed Yvette's hand, "Yvette, I want to talk properly with you."
"Mom, I'll talk to you after I go to the toilet." Yvette had to discard the paper towels, or else, she would be restless.
"Alright," Lisa said and let go of her. She couldn't use force on her daughter.
When Yvette reached the bathroom in the room, she sighed with relief.
Lisa frowned outside. She sniffed the air and felt that there was something wrong with the odor she had just smelled. Yvette had been downstairs for about ten minutes. Could it be...
Lisa was furious at this thought. She was an experienced woman and she had suddenly realized what the smell was. She really wanted to go into Yvette's room to confront her. Perhaps, she could find the source of the smell. However, Lisa felt that their relationship would be ruined if she did so, thus, she hesitated and sat down again.
"Yvette, he is the son of the person who killed your father. How could you..." Lisa sighed. When she came here, she thought that there was a possibility that she could persuade Yvette. But now, it seemed like it was impossible.
Lisa had underestimated the relationship between them. They had lived together for so many years, so it was not going to be easy separating them.
However, Lisa didn't like Chuck at all. How could her daughter be so obsessed with him? Lisa sighed repeatedly.
Soon, Yvette came out after taking a shower and sat down beside Lisa. What else could Lisa say? It would be useless to say anything, and it would ruin the relationship between the mother and daughter who had just met.
There was a heavy silence.
Facing her mother, Yvette felt guilty over what had just happened. The two of them stayed silent for a few minutes. Lisa then sighed, "Yvette, get some rest."
Lisa got up and went back to the room. Yvette sighed with relief. When she returned to her room, her mobile phone rang. It was a message from Chuck, "Honey, I have arrived at the hotel. Are you asleep?"
Yvette felt at ease and replied, "I'm getting ready to sleep."
"Honey, I miss you so much," Chuck replied.
"You're thinking about it again, aren't you? Just now, my mother almost discovered what we did. You got me into trouble." After Yvette sent this message, Chuck seemed to be dumbfounded. Yvette could not help but laugh. After a long while, she was finally amused and she cracked a wry smile. Her husband must be stunned.
"It's okay. My mother didn't discover anything. She just smelled something unusual. I explained it to her, and she didn't suspect anything," Yvette went on to reply.
Chuck was indeed stunned. After all, it was embarrassing enough when the elders knew about this kind of thing. Moreover, Lisa disliked him from the very beginning and it would be worse if she found out. She might even confront him directly. What was he supposed to do by then? Fortunately, Yvette had explained it away.
Chuck heaved a sigh of relief.
"Hubby, go to bed early. You're going to school tomorrow," Yvette replied.
He replied, "Okay." Chuck then put down his phone, at ease, and slept.
Yvette's eyes were gloomy. She thought, "I really want to go to school. My goal after graduating from university was to become a teacher, but that's not possible anymore. See you, my dear students..."
Yvette sighed.
When Yvette got up the next morning, she went to prepare breakfast. Lisa and her bodyguard didn't sleep the whole night. Lisa felt that she had to find somewhere else to stay, and Yvette's cousin must have started to hunt for her already. How should she escape from him? This was a huge problem.
Lisa's basic idea was to make Yvette grow stronger. She was ready to train Yvette and improve her fighting skills so that she could defend herself.
When Lisa saw Yvette coming out of her room, she told her right away. Yvette had no objection. She also felt that she was too weak. Previously, she had almost died at Damon's hands. This family of hers was cunning. If she had no strength, she may die at any time.
Yvette was eager to improve herself as well. Otherwise, how could she take back what belonged to her?
"Also, find another place to live. This place is not secluded," Lisa continued.
Yvette was silent. She didn't have much money, so she decided to call Susan and ask her for some money. After all, the company had made some profit in the past month, and the restaurant was ready to open as well.
Just as Yvette was about to do so, she suddenly received a message on her mobile phone. Yvette opened it and saw that it was from Chuck. He said that he was going to school, and then there was another transfer of 200,000 dollars to her account. "If it is not enough, just let me know," he added.
Yvette was instantly touched by his gesture. Chuck knew that she had no money. When Lisa wasn't looking, she accepted the money and replied, "Hubby, you treat me so nice."
Chuck was amused and he replied, "Don't leave me again."
A few minutes later, Yvette replied with a "yes".
Chuck was about to drive the sports car to school in the morning, but he looked at the scratch marks from the previous accident. Since it hadn't been fixed yet, Chuck decided to drive to the shop to fix the car first and take the bus to school instead. Chuck was thinking that he had to buy a new car and wondered when the helicopter that his mother had mentioned last time would arrive.
This was something Chuck looked forward to.
At the school entrance, Lara was waiting for him. Initially, she wanted to send a message to Chuck and ask him when he would arrive. But after thinking about it for a long time, she guessed that Chuck would not reply to her. She held a cup of milk tea that she had made, and it was absolutely tasty.
But why hadn't Chuck arrived yet?Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
She saw that Queenie was also at the entrance. She walked over and asked, "Hey, who are you waiting for?"
"No one," Queenie explained hurriedly. She didn't want Lara to misunderstand. She was indeed waiting for Chuck. She was worried that Chuck wouldn't come to school.
However, since Lara was asking, she couldn't keep waiting. Seeing that Chuck hadn't arrive yet, Queenie entered the school, disappointed.
Lara snorted and said to herself, "So you think that I don't know who you are waiting for? Last semester, you two sat together and were so close to each other. This semester, I will sit next to Chuck. I won't let you sit beside him. Let's see if you still have the chance to get close to him."
"Lara, who are you waiting for?" A classmate saw Lara and asked curiously.
It was the first day of the term. Lara was dressed in a revealing outfit. She wore a pair of hot pants and a T-shirt. Her slender legs were so eye-catching that many people took a second glance.
"What does it have to do with you?" Lara curled her lips and replied.
"Oh, could it be that you're interested in the handsome guy, Aaron Dawson, who is a freshman?" her classmates teased. It was said that there was a handsome guy among the freshmen. As soon as he showed up, he overthrew all the original school hunks and became the top school hunk on campus. Lara was extremely smitten with good-looking boys, so her classmate guessed she must be waiting for Aaron.
And not only was the school hunk replaced, but the two campus belles were also overthrown. Yolanda had graduated, so naturally, she was no longer the campus belle. There were two new freshmen belles. Now, the school had four campus belles, but two of them were new.
This year's freshmen were of high quality in appearance. Not only was there a school hunk, but there were also two campus belles!
"Aaron Dawson?" Lara curled her lips and said. She had been here a few days ago. Of course, she had heard about the new campus belles and hunk. But she was not waiting for Aaron. She was waiting for Chuck instead. She muttered in her heart, "Why hasn't he arrived yet? It's been too long, and the milk tea will no longer taste good."
"Wow!" Suddenly, there was a roar coming from the students.
Her classmate urged, "It's the new school hunk, Aaron. Lara, let's go and have a look." The students ran to the entrance. Lara curled her lips and said, "I'm not going. What's there to see?"
At this moment, a sports car arrived with a loud noise. The door opened and a stunning guy came out of the car. He was as handsome as a celebrity. Many girls at the entrance went crazy when they saw him.
Aaron smiled and walked to the school entrance. He was used to this kind of situation. Many women sent him flowers and food, but Aaron didn't want any of them. He was thirsty. Suddenly, his sigh landed on Lara, who was standing not far away. The beauty had a good body figure and had a milk tea in her hand. Aaron wondered if she had prepared it for him.
Aaron then walked up to Lara and took the milk tea from her hand, saying, "Thank you."
"Hey, it's not for you!" Lara was shocked and she yelled. What the h*ll was Aaron doing?
Aaron frowned and felt humiliated. He was so attractive, so why was it that the milk tea was not prepared for him? How was that possible?
"This is not for me? I have to admit that this method you're using to attract my attention is quite ingenious!" Aaron looked at Lara and said.
