My Billionaire Mom
Chapter 485

"My goodness, Willa. Don't you feel lonely? You've lived life alone like this for a whole thirty years?" Willa's friends were astonished.

They were really taken aback.

It was natural for both men and women to have a s*x drive. However, how could that not cross Willa's mind? She had even spent every night watching movies and reading books!

"Do you really not do anything else?" Emily hinted with a 'you-know-what-l-mean' expression.

Willa did not seem to understand what she had meant but she nodded anyway.

A few of her friends exchanged glances and smiled. They were women, after all, so talking about this topic shouldn't be a problem.

It seemed to them that Willa did have other ways of relieving her boredom.

"What are you all laughing about? Why are you smiling like that..."

Willa was dumbfounded. A moment later, she finally understood what they were implying and quickly spoke up to correct them, "Hold on, no! I don't do whatever it is you're all thinking about right now, okay? I swear I only read books or watch TV shows. Either that or I would continue training myself."

Willa was speaking the truth. Whenever she was alone at home, she was nothing but productive. Her favorite thing to do was learning and she liked martial arts.

Training, running, punching... She loved all kinds of martial arts. They allowed her to stay young.

Her friends were rendered speechless. It would be unbelievable if these words were uttered by any other person, but this was Willa. She would not lie to them. They knew Willa's personality very well.

While some of them were the same age as Willa, one of them was three years younger than her.

However, Willa looked much younger than them. Her constant exercising had made her stay youthful.

Exercising gave her a smooth and perfect skin complexion, and she didn't have any wrinkles at all. She even looked beautiful without any make-up.

Some of her friends didn't dare compare themselves to her beauty.

One could not achieve her standard without strong determination.

So, this was Willa's life. If she wasn't reading books, she would be training.

This was how she had always lived.

"Willa, I really admire you. A few of us would feel really uncomfortable if we don't get some affection from our boyfriends every day. Compared to us, you're like a saint!" Willa's friends felt sorry for her. They couldn't fathom how she could stand it.

"Willa, how do you do it?"

"Yeah, how? Do tell us!"

Her friends chattered away.

"Just be in a state of calm. If you don't have anything that needs getting done, just go to bed," Willa replied with a smile.

Her friends looked at each other in dismay.

"Willa, I'm sorry but I have to ask. Are you... Are you still the same as you were when you were younger? You know what I mean, that is..." Emily trailed off.

Willa was startled by her audacity. "I refuse to answer that," she managed to get out eventually.

"Tsk, you must still be a virgin then," one of them said.

"Yeah, that much is clear," another added.

Willa felt a little overwhelmed by their comments and she spoke up, "Let's not talk about that. Yes, okay. I'm still a virgin."

It was true. After all, Willa had never had a boyfriend.

Her friends were stunned by this information. She had no boyfriend and no nightlife? How could she spend her nights like this?

"Willa, you're thirty now and still don't have a boyfriend. You must fancy someone, right?" Emily asked.

"That's right. It's impossible for you to not like someone. You must be really loyal to him if that's the case."

Willa's friends looked at her expectantly.

All of a sudden, Willa fell silent.

Who did she like?

She had already admitted to herself that she had fallen for Chuck, hadn't she?

"Jackpot! Willa finally has someone in mind! Tell us! We want to know who this lucky man is," Emily squealed in excitement.

"Who is it?" one of them probed.

"Are you okay, Willa? Why aren't you speaking?" another friend asked upon noticing her silence.

Someone interjected, "Oh no, it can't be, can it?"

"What?"

"I have never seen Willa with other men before. I think she might be hiding her feelings for this man! She must be secretly crushing on them!"

"That's impossible. Why would she need to do that? People are queueing miles just to get together with her!"

Her friends started to discuss.

In their minds, Willa was the most beautiful woman they had ever laid eyes on. She was so perfect that anyone would be lucky to have her! There was no need for her to hide her feelings. How lovely must the man be to make a woman like Willa have a secret crush on him?

This was unexpected.

"Willa, are we right? Do you really have a crush on someone? Don't worry. We won't tell anyone," her friends asked, tone cautious.

Willa looked at them and contemplated her answer. Although they have pretty messy private lives, they were still nice people. She was silent for a while before confirming their guesses, "You're right." They exchanged looks with each other and did not speak for a long time.

This really was shocking news.

"Willa, who is this person?"

"I don't want to tell you all," Willa replied as she shook her head in distress. Telling them would be no use anyway.

When Karen had brought her and Chuck together, Willa hadn't thought about the possibility of getting together with Chuck. Now that she was finally starting to think in that direction, there was no chance left. She had missed her opportunity.

"Hey, Willa, does this man like you back?" Emily asked.

Willa shook her head and answered, "No, he doesn't."

Even though Chuck was with her every day during these few days, she knew that he hadn't thought of her in a romantic light at all.

Did he actually like her?

She didn't think so.

Whenever Chuck looked at her, there was not even a sign of romantic attraction in his eyes. Instead, they shined with respect. Thinking of this, Willa felt solemn, blaming her age as the cause of that. It might be that Chuck had always regarded her as his senior, so he had never thought to think in that direction at all.

Yeah, that was probably it.

"How could that be? Any man would fall in love with you if you want, right? You know, when my boyfriend saw you last time, he was so entranced by you..." Emily said as she was feeling confused. "Willa, have you told him your feelings?" another friend asked.

"No, I haven't," Willa said, shaking her head.

"Why not? Just do it! If you like him, tell him!"

"That's right, Willa. Tell him that you are basically a goddess in our eyes! If you told him that, he might even be moved to tears!"

This was absolutely true. How could one not be moved when a gorgeous being like Willa had a crush on them?

"No, I won't," Willa sighed as she shook her head sadly. She would never.

She knew it wouldn't end well. Even if she had confessed, she knew Chuck only had Yvette in his heart. He would never like her back.

If she had confessed, it would only make her relationship with him awkward.

"Why not?" Emily asked.

"He doesn't like me," Willa answered miserably.

Her friends exchanged glances at that.

"How can that be? Come on, Willa, don't be sad. You are so beautiful. I'm sure he will definitely like you back," one of her friends reassured.

"Yeah, Willa. You have to believe in yourself. We all know a lot of people who like you, you know. You can take your pick and choose a boyfriend to your liking. I'm sure he will fall desperately in love with you one day!"

Her friends comforted her for a long while.

Willa nodded her head in thanks at their concern and thought deeply about what they were saying.

She knew Chuck respected her a lot. However, would he be able to look past that and think about her in another way? He was still really naive... Wasn't he?

The more Willa thought about it, the sadder she felt. At this moment, she felt ready to combust. She really wanted to reveal to Chuck that she was the woman whom he had kissed and then profess her feelings towards him.

However, Willa was a rational person. She would not do something so impulsive.

"Let's not talk about it," Willa said and saw that Chuck and Yvette had finally walked out. Her friends stopped talking immediately when they saw Yvette. They were amazed.

Compared to Willa, Yvette was definitely equally goddess-like.

Her figure, appearance, and temperament...

No wonder when they had asked if they could introduce Chuck a girlfriend, Willa had said that there was no need for it. That was indeed true. Yvette was too alluring, too gorgeous. Who could top her? That was unless Willa came forward herself. But how could it be possible? Willa had a crush on someone else already. Moreover, she was Chuck's senior.

So never would they know that Willa's crush was Chuck...

"Oh my, Chuck's girlfriend really is beautiful!" Emily gushed out.

"Yeah, her figure is gorgeous. I'm afraid that only Willa can compare to her. It's perfect!"

"Look at the way they look at each other. They're so in love, truly an ideal match!"

Several of her friends expressed their high opinions in surprise. However, they weren't aware that their words were as though needles piercing into Willa's heart. She was glum, but she agreed with them. Chuck and Yvette made a perfect match indeed.
