My Billionaire Mom
Chapter 372

"I won't let you go," Chuck said.

Indeed, it was the first time Yvette had hit him. She was five years older than him, so it should've been normal for her to beat him up as an elder sister.

However, Yvette had never beaten him up ever since they were young. She would let Chuck do everything as he wished and even let him sleep in her arms at night. But at the age of sixteen, Yvette's view had changed. Chuck didn't want her at night, so she'd changed.

At first, she had hated Chuck. But no matter how much she hated him, she would never hit him.

Chuck didn't feel sad when Yvette hit him. He just felt that she was too stressed, he knew she didn't do it on purpose.

"I will hit you again if you don't let go!" Yvette raised her hand again as she threatened. When she was going to slap Chuck in the face, she was struggling inside. She actually wished Chuck had avoided that. Slap!

Yvette's hand was held by someone else, and she let out a sigh of relief. It was Betty.

Betty's duty was to protect Chuck, and she wouldn't allow him to get beaten up like that. It was her fault that he got slapped for the first time, but she wouldn't let it happen again.

Betty couldn't bear to see that.

"Yvette, that's enough," Betty said.

Betty had greater strength. When she grabbed Yvette's hand, Yvette was pushed back and fell to the ground. She was kicked by Duncan earlier, thus, her body was in great pain and she couldn't withstand the force.

Betty didn't use much of her strength and was surprised to see that Yvette couldn't get up.

"Honey," Chuck said with concern, crouching down to help her up. "Honey, Betty didn't do it on purpose."

"Did she not mean it? Now, I know what I am to you," Yvette said bitterly.

Then, she got up by herself, turned around and left. Her retreating figure slowly diminished, appearing lonely.

Chuck's heart was aching at this sight. He ran and caught up with her.

"Go away!" Yvette said indifferently. She bit her lips and then ran into the crowd. Chuck kept looking for her. He was very anxious, but she had already disappeared in the crowd. Chuck couldn't replace her. There were a lot of students in the crowd.

And they were shocked.

They were shocked because Chuck had just hugged Yvette.

Everyone knew Yvette. To them, she was the goddess in school. When she had left, many of them were disappointed.

Someone had recorded the scene when Chuck hugged Yvette and posted it on the Internet again.

Those who watched the video were stunned.

The post immediately accumulated many comments.

Many students commented.

A man wrote, "Am I mistaken? How could Chuck that loser hug my goddess?"

"Did Chuck and Yvette get together? In the video, I heard Chuck called Yvette 'Honey'. Is that true?" another person commented.

"I think it must be true. She used to speak up for Chuck when she was in class. Oh my God, had they been together since then? No wonder she quitted her job," one of the men pointed out.

"Oh my God! Chuck? Wasn't so great about him that even the two campus belles were looking for him? Now, he had also conquered Yvette? Oh my God, I'm jealous!"

"Haha, what are you jealous of? Didn't you see that Teacher Jordan hit Chuck? They must have broken up," another person replied.

"I should go now!" a student wrote.

The post went viral. The plaza which was on fire was nothing compared to that, they were just curious, but Yvette was their goddess.

When Aaron saw the fire in City Square, he smiled happily. He thought, "Chuck, you unlucky fool! Who told you to sleep with Frieda? You brought it upon yourself!"

Frieda also knew that the plaza was on fire through the news on the Internet. She sneered and said, "Your plaza would definitely be destroyed. You're now nothing compared to Aaron. This is karma for not liking me, you deserve it!"

Frieda watched the video over and over again. The more she watched, the happier she felt. She felt like going straight to the scene and laugh at Chuck in person. He deserved it!

At the same time, when Duncan saw such a scene, he was pleased and his face broke into a smile. That was interesting! He felt that his idea was wonderful.

"Do I have to let Chuck go for a month? It wouldn't matter even if I let him go for a year, he's just a piece of trash after all. What can rubbish like him do?" Duncan thought mockingly.

The fire was put out, many students were no longer interested so the crowd slowly dispersed. However, Zelda, Quinn, Lara, and Charlotte didn't leave.

When they saw the plaza, they felt sorry.

Zelda's newly open restaurant was burned down. However, she didn't feel sad about it, she only felt sorry for Chuck. It wasn't easy for him as he had been putting in efforts to grow his business.

Quinn was furious as she wondered, who did that? Who started the fire? When she arrived at the scene, she saw Chuck standing there grievously and she wanted to go over and comfort him. He must be very sad.

He must be. Or else, he wouldn't look like that.

"Young Master," Betty called as she walked over. She had just discovered something, there were tears on Yvette's face when she set fire to the plaza. Why did she cry?

"Betty," Chuck sighed and was ready to look for Yvette. She must have gone back.

After all, Lisa was still there.

Chuck was going to look for her.

"Young Master, I think Yvette didn't set the fire because of the President," Betty analyzed. Karen had spoken highly of Yvette. She said that she was talented and had strong willpower. Besides, she was very kind to her family members.

In that case, even if Yvette were to revenge against Karen, why would she take advantage of Chuck?

Also, Betty noticed someone left right after Yvette had left the scene. It might've meant that Yvette was being controlled by someone.

Betty was thinking and suddenly a person came to her mind, Duncan Lee!

Did he threaten Yvette and told her to put up the fire?

"Betty, are you serious?" Chuck asked as he finally understood the situation as well. Even if Yvette hated his mother, why would she vent her anger on him?

"Yes, when I pushed Yvette, she couldn't stand up. I didn't use any strength at all. The only possible explanation is that Yvette was injured. It could be that before she set the fire, she'd met Duncan. Duncan threatened her and asked her to set the plaza on fire so that you would break up with her. Duncan would surely replace it interesting," Betty said.

She analyzed the entire situation and felt that Duncan's idea was sick.

Hearing this, Chuck's heart ached. He was angry at Yvette and had shouted at her, she must be very sad.

"I should go to look for Yvette now," Chuck said as he was anxious. He didn't want to do anything at that time. All he wanted to do was to hug Yvette and tell her that he was sorry. When Yvette was forced to set fire, she must've been in despair.

That was why she had an emotional outburst

"What about the plaza?" Betty hesitated. The fire in the plaza had been put out and all of the people she'd brought were cleaning up. The fire had caused a lot of damage to the plaza. "Yolanda!" Chuck shouted for Yolanda and she quickly ran over.

"I want you to restore the plaza to its original state within three days," Chuck said.

"Okay," Yolanda nodded. She then contacted the cleaning department immediately. As long as they had money, everything should not be a problem. It was simple to do that with sufficient funds.

After that, Chuck and Betty went to look for Yvette. Yolanda was responsible for the plaza. She had already contacted the workers respectively.

The people at the scene had almost dispersed. The plaza must have been ruined. There would be no City Square in the future.

Both Zelda and Quinn were hesitant. However, no one chased after in the end. Under such circumstances, they both thought that Chuck needed time to calm himself down.

Lara and Charlotte did not go over either.

Zelda and Quinn looked at each other, but they did not speak. Quinn then left, taking out her phone and made a call. She ordered, "Find me the best repairing team and ask them to come to City Square. I want the plaza to be repaired in three days!"

Betty drove very fast as Chuck was anxious. When they arrived at Yvette's place, Chuck opened the car door and rushed down. He wanted to comfort Yvette and tell her that he loved her.
