My Billionaire Mom
Chapter 86

It was very quiet in the car, and the atmosphere was a little strange. Chuck Cannon was surprised at what Zelda Maine was doing. He couldn't help but look at Zelda's face and found that there was a trace of complexity in her eyes. "Is she going to..."

Chuck understood.

He was not a fool. He knew what she meant. She wanted to 'help' him, just like what she did last night.

However, Chuck was very conflicted.

If Zelda was thanking him for today's incident, then Chuck didn't want it. After all, he took her as his friend. Giving help to a friend did not need repayment. It would alter the meaning of their being friends. Chuck didn't think it was necessary for her to do so.

Zelda unbuckled the seat belt just like the last time, and then stretched out her hand. It was very dark inside the car. Chuck could not see her face, but he could see her eyes clearly, just like yesterday... "Sister Zelda."

Chuck really wanted her, because her hand was very skillful. But he didn't want Zelda to help him in this way. He didn't think of asking for this when he decided to come to help her. Zelda was stunned. Her hand stopped and she bit her lip. "You don't want me to do it today?"

"Er..."

Zelda was a little disappointed. After the fierce struggle in her heart just now, she took the initiative to approach Chuck, but he didn't want it. It was...

She sighed and nodded. "Well, let's go then!"

She sat upright again, put on her seat belt, and drove. It was still silent inside the car.

Chuck felt a little uncomfortable. It was not because he felt uncomfortable physically, but because he saw Zelda's disappointed eyes. He felt distressed about this. How should he explain? Chuck didn't know how he was feeling about Zelda. Yesterday, she had 'helped' him. When he went back at night, he wondered if Zelda could be deemed as his lover now.

He was looking forward to it, to be honest, he was really looking forward to it. After all, Zelda's figure was so good, and she was so beautiful. She is an attractive lady.

It would be great to be her lover. But Chuck's also thought that they should not interfere with each other's lives... Then what about the disappointed look in Zelda's eyes just now? Could it be that Zelda had feelings for him?

"It can't be, can it?"

Chuck was confused and he peeked at Zelda again. She looked calm. He breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought too much. After all, Zelda believed strongly in staying single! When they arrived at the residential complex, Chuck hesitated for a while before he said, "Sister Zelda, I've already asked Yolanda to pay attention to the shop lot you want." In the afternoon, Chuck briefly talked to Yolanda Lane about this matter. She certainly had no problem with it. He thought that Zelda's restaurant would definitely draw large crowds. "Alright."

The two of them took the lift upstairs. When the lift opened, Chuck said, "Good night, Sister Zelda."

"Good night," Zelda whispered, then walked to the door of her unit. She opened the door and walked in.

Chuck was a little regretful. Just now, he should...

"Forget it. I'll handle it myself." Chuck entered his house and headed towards the bathroom.

When he was sleeping that night, Chuck had a dream of Zelda again. This was another illusion...

In the morning, Chuck Cannon got up and went out to ask Zelda Maine, "Would you like me to accompany you?" Zelda shook her head. She didn't want to trouble him. She could take her mother and two aunties to visit places on her own.

Chuck couldn't help but feel helpless. Did Zelda feel very upset about his rejection last night?

They got off the lift together. Zelda said that she would send Chuck to the plaza. But he then shook his head and said that he would go to school instead of today.

"Then I'll send you to school," Zelda spoke, but then fell silent. "Isn't Yvette at school?"

Obviously, that was the case. Chuck need not explain further.

"Well, good luck with your classes today," Zelda said softly and drove away.

Chuck shook his head and took a taxi to school. For the next few days, he had classes at school every day. Whenever Chuck didn't attend a class, Yvette would call him to remind him that their exams were drawing close and that he must attend those classes!

Her tone was particularly serious!

Chuck thought that he had to start catching up with classes, so he went to Yvette's office every day to ask her questions. Yvette actually explained everything to him patiently and carefully until he fully understood, which made him feel very pampered.

"If you fail this course, I'll punish you," Yvette said coldly and seriously.

Chuck nodded helplessly. Seeing Yvette packing up her things coldly, he asked her whether she was going to the company.

"Hmm," she said. "You're going to your part-time job, right? I'll take you in my car."

Chuck shook his head as he thought about it. He had driven over today.

Seeing him shake his head, Yvette was a little angry. "Alright, whatever."

After she said so, she left. Chuck was startled by her sudden anger, and he left the school helplessly. After arriving at the parking lots, Chuck drove to the plaza. The place was getting quite busy recently! Chuck had to go help out with the operations.

After arriving at the parking lot at the plaza, Chuck took the elevator to the first floor and especially went to check the new facilities. He was wandering around on the first floor and felt quite content. Although there was no big change, the new rest area facilities would surely attract new shoppers.

"Mr. Cannon..." While Chuck was wandering around, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. Chuck turned his head in confusion and found that it was the BMW salesperson, Charlotte Yates. Lara Jean and Charlotte had opened a shop here at the plaza. It was probably still under renovation, so she must have come to check on it.

But today she was wearing a denim mini skirt. Her straight long legs were really attractive. She was wearing a tight white T-shirt, which was quite revealing. Chuck's eyes lit up. Her figure was not as curvy as Yvette's but she was attractive as well.

Charlotte was nervous. She hadn't taken the initiative to contact Chuck for a long time. The last time, Chuck had rejected her advances, so she was very upset. She thought that since she had sold the car to him, she might not have another chance to meet him. She didn't expect to see him again here.

"Just call me Chuck."

"Well, what are you doing here?"

"Just wandering around," Chuck said.

At this time, Lara's voice came from behind. "Hey, cousin, come over here. It's so heavy..."

"Sorry, wait a minute." It occurred to Charlotte that both Lara and herself had ordered some fixtures and were about to send it to the store.

Charlotte ran over to help. At this time, Lara was carrying a big box and bending her body out of breath. Chuck's eyes moved. Recently, he had continued to seduce Lara on WeChat and asked her to send photos to him constantly. Lara was very obedient. As long as Chuck mentioned it, she would send them.

He was probably pushing it, but these photos gave Chuck a particularly clear understanding of her body shape. Normally, she never flaunted her figure, so Chuck had to admit that her figure was actually quite attractive.

Charlotte was excited. Chuck was looking at her. She had thought that he was no longer interested in her.

Chuck was surprised when he caught a glimpse of the store. The renovation should be done in a few days and the design was quite modern and stylish. The signboard would also be fixed up very soon. He commented, "The renovation design is quite good."

"That's right. I designed it myself." Lara was proud of her work. She was panting and tired of moving things. She took twenty dollars out of her pocket and gave them to Chuck. "Go and buy three bottles of water. Take the rest as a tip."

Chuck was stunned, and Charlotte was angry. "Lara, what are you doing?"

"Nothing. I'm thirsty. I want to drink some water. Why are you still looking at me? Don't you want ten dollars as a tip? Go..." Lara pushed Chuck out of the store and walked in by herself. Then she opened the box.

Chuck felt helpless. "This Lara!" He walked aside and suddenly thought, "Should I ask her out? Let her come and we'll get a room, and then I'll let her know that the "baller" is actually me. How would she react?"

Chuck was getting excited. He immediately took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Lara, saying, "Let's meet tonight!"
