My Billionaire Mom
Chapter 684

"Elise, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Sophia was flustered. She knew that Elise was smart to tell that she had feelings for Chuck.

Sophia thought that she must have given herself away.

She was so nervous that her heart almost skipped a beat. How could she face her own daughter if Elise found out?

Sophia was ashamed to face her!

"Morn, what I meant was whether you have any other agreements with Chuck. Is that why he's helping you?"

Elise did not think too much about it at all! She couldn't!

Sophia was her mother, and Elise knew that Sophia paid special attention to herself. After all, her mother was a beauty and a single woman. None of the men could be a match to her.

Therefore, Elise did not think about that at all.

Furthermore, it was Chuck they were talking about!

The two of them were not a match for each other at all!

It was even more impossible due to the age gap.

Hence, her opinion of Sophia and Chuck's relationship was thoroughly simple

Hearing Elise's words, Sophia let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that Elise didn't think much of their relationship. She was the one who was overthinking things.

"Yes, we have several agreements between the two of us. We're business partners. He doesn't want anything to happen to me," Sophia felt guilty for lying to her daughter.

She was actually planning to lie to Elise for as long as she could.

She felt guilty, but she was also very worried. There was bound to be a day when they would be exposed. What should she do when that happens?

"I see. Morn, what do you think of Chuck?" Elise asked, fully enlightened by her mother's explanation.

It seemed that Sophia had gradually changed her attitude towards Chuck because of their cooperation.

Elise was glad to know that.

"He's... a decent person," Sophia was silent for a moment.

"Oh, I also think he's a pretty nice person. Morn, do you know? When I looked for him just now, he immediately came over after replaceing out that something had happened to you," Elise said. "Is that so?" Sophia let out a sigh in her heart. She was touched.

She did not regret the affair she had with Chuck that day. If it didn't happen, she would not be able to experience intimate moments with him.

Yet, she had dragged him down this time!

"Yup, Chuck really respects you."

"Respect?" Sophia found it hard to continue the topic. She was embarrassed.

"Yes, respect. He's working with our family, so he respects you," Elise felt that it was normal.

However, Sophia didn't know how to respond to Elise.

"But what should we do when the hidden family gets here five days later?" Elise asked. She was anxious.

The hidden family was just too powerful!

Sophia kept silent. A while later, she asked Elise to return to her room. She then took out her phone and wanted to stop Chuck from going over, but found that she couldn't reach him. Sophia was about to call him again when Chuck sent her a message that said, "Trust me. Have a good rest."

When Sophia saw his message, she felt a sense of warmth in her heart. Her face was full of tears. She was touched and it had been a long time since she last felt like this. Sophia was perturbed for five whole days. She had ordered her men to send the explosives over. She really hoped that Loomis would be here soon, and not Chuck.

In fact, Elise also wanted to be there, but Sophia refused her request.

She didn't want her daughter to be beaten up by

Loomis too.

While waiting anxiously, Sophia suddenly received a call. She thought that it was from her bodyguard who was going to inform her that Loomis had arrived. However, when she answered the call, she heard Chuck's voice.

"Let me in."

"Chuck, it's you? Please leave," Sophia's beautiful eyes were teary, looking touched but also tainted with fear. She was afraid that Chuck would hurt himself for her sake. "Trust me," Only a few words from him were needed for her to tear up.

She was silent for a while and finally gave in. She sobbed, "Fine, come in!"

Around 30 seconds later, Chuck walked in with Black Rose.

Black Rose also found out about it.

Hence, she tagged along with Chuck.

When Sophia saw Black Rose, she quickly lowered her head while forcing back her tears.

She could not afford to let others replace out about the relationship between her and Chuck.

If that happened, she would put Chuck in an unfavorable position.

Chuck shrugged and asked, "When will he be here?"

"I don't know. He only said that he would be here today," Sophia shook her head.

"Black Rose, replace a place to hide first," Chuck still wanted to be careful. He asked Black Rose to bring along a sniper rifle. In case of any emergency, he could ask her to settle things quickly.

It would be a foolproof plan.

Black Rose replied coldly, "Ok."

She looked around and soon found a hiding place.

"It's my fault you're involved," Sophia shook her head dejectedly.

"Believe me, I know Loomis too," Chuck's eyes were cold.

"You know him?" Sophia was startled. Now that she thought about it, it was possible for Chuck to know Loomis given Chuck's status.

However, it was useless for him to just know Loomis. The hidden family's status and strength had surpassed many families.

There was a huge gap between them!

How could Chuck stand up for himself, let alone for her?

"Yes, I do. Since he slapped you twice, I'll make sure that you can slap him back until you're satisfied. Will 20 times be enough?" Chuck smirked.

"You..." Sophia was astonished and let out a sigh.

It must be words of comfort.

Loomis was so powerful, so how could Chuck even lay a hand on him?

In fact, Sophia had already made up her mind. If Loomis got angry later, she would bear all of his anger alone!

She did not want someone she loved to get hurt!

"Don't worry. Trust me!" Chuck grinned.

"Oh fine," Sophia sighed.

Black Rose had already found a spot to hide. She looked at Chuck and muttered, "What on earth are you talking about with her? Why are you talking so much?"

She couldn't be bothered to look at them anymore.

Just then, outside the Lawrence family mansion.

Loomis was driving the most expensive car in the world!

There were two bodyguards with him.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the mansion.

Loomis smiled ominously.

"Young Master!" A bodyguard called out. He was staring at the heavily guarded door.

"It's alright. Sophia is a tough one. I'm growing interested in her," Loomis said with a faint smile. He looked very sinister.

Once Loomis got hold of the explosives, he would have an upper hand against Chuck!

He could already picture Chuck dead. He'd blast that wretched man away!

Loomis got out of the car lazily!

Two bodyguards got out of the car as well. One of them walked over and gave Sophia's bodyguard at the door a good smack. It was so hard that the bodyguard spat out blood.

"Aren't you going to open the door for us yet?"

The bodyguard was furious, but Sophia had already instructed him not to resist.

He quickly opened the door. Loomis laughed and was about to go in, only to suddenly think of something fun. He casually said to the bodyguard who was bleeding, "Go in and tell Sophia... I'm here, so why is she not here to welcome me?"

"What? How dare you!" The bodyguard was pissed. How could he expect Sophia, the head of the Lawrence family, to be out here to welcome him personally?

Smack!

Another bodyguard slapped him again, causing him to pass out almost immediately.

Loomis sneered at the Lawrence family's bodyguards, "Go now! Tell Sophia that if she doesn't come out to greet me, I'll smash her house!"

The bodyguards glanced at each other and one of them immediately went to inform Sophia.

Loomis felt that this was really fun. If Sophia came out and he got her to kneel down and welcome him, it would be really interesting to see!

While Loomis was waiting, his bodyguard received a call and was shocked. He immediately informed Loomis, "Young Master, the Old Master's condition seems to be worsening. They are asking you to return home quickly."

Hearing this, Loomis laughed sinisterly, "Oh, really? It has already been so long. Why isn't he dead yet? If he doesn't die, how will I be able to replace him as the head of the family?"

Loomis had wanted to be the head of the Yeager family a long time ago, but Chuck had stepped in and ruined his bright future!

Now that Brooke was on his deathbed, he stood a chance to climb to the top. Loomis was too lazy to go back and pay the last visit.

It didn't matter if he died anyways.

What was the big deal?

The two bodyguards looked at each other in dismay. Wasn't it inappropriate for him to say that?

"Tell my father that I have urgent matters to deal with right now," Loomis instructed.

"Yes, Young Master!" The bodyguard called his father immediately.

Loomis felt that the whole matter seemed a bit strange. Brooke had suffered from a sudden illness, causing many other diseases to crop up. He had been in a coma for a long time and was already as thin as a

rail.

None of the doctors could replace the cause of his diseases.

What on earth was going on?

Just when Loomis was excited, the Lawrence family bodyguard emerged from the house.

"Where's Sophia? Is she still not coming out? I'm going to smash her house if she doesn't!" Loomis cackled loudly. Sophia would definitely be out to greet him!

This was fun!
