Chapter 681
Chapter 681
Maybe Willa was just overthinking things. Black Rose wouldn't have seen anything at all. Last night, Chuck had invited her in for a drink, but she had refused him coldly.
How could Black Rose drink?
She still had to protect Chuck!
Therefore, she wouldn't have gotten anywhere close to the house last night.
She wouldn't have seen anything.
"Chucky, go in first. I'll have a few words with Black Rose."
"Okay," Chuck replied as he entered the car.
With that, Willa came to look for Black Rose.
Black Rose was startled. Why was Willa looking for her?
Of course, she didn't see anything. Last night, when Chuck invited her inside for a drink, she even grew angry and refused to go anywhere near the house.
Then, she had just been patrolling around the house to protect Chuck.
If Black Rose got to know about what had happened between Chuck and Willa last night, she might've...
"What do you want?" Black Rose asked.
Willa heaved a sigh of relief. She was indeed overthinking and said, "Nothing much."
"Have you not recovered from your injuries? Why are your legs so wobbly?" Black Rose asked in confusion.
"I... I was drunk last night and slept on the wrong side of the bed," Willa made an excuse.
As an assassin, Black Rose was incredibly observant.
She would pay attention to even the smallest details.
Hence, Willa could only make up a reasonable lie.
"Okay," Black Rose didn't say anything else.
That made sense.
Willa then returned to the car in relief. Chuck started the car and the three of them went back.
After Willa came home, Chuck went to find Yvette, while Black Rose followed behind them. Willa said that she wanted to rest, but in fact, she went out to buy medicine quietly.
On the way, she met Karen.
"Willa, are you going out?" Karen was surprised. Why was she heading out again as soon as she had returned?
"Yeah," Willa nodded, feeling slightly embarrassed.
"What do you want to buy? I'll ask someone to buy it for you."
"It's ok, I can buy it myself," Willa was nervous. How could she ask someone to buy those things for her?
"Alright then. Where did you guys stay last night?"
"At Patricia Dawson's house. She was feeling depressed because she had been alone for some time, so we drank a bit," Willa explained.
"Okay, as long as you're safe," Karen was also relieved. Willa was smart and had self-control, so she wasn't too worried about them.
"I will. I'm leaving now," Willa nodded.
Karen felt at ease.
They were about to face off with the Yeager family.
After Willa went out, she heaved a slight sigh of relief. She drove to a place far away to purchase some medicine. However, she was a little hesitant after buying it.
What happened yesterday would probably only happen once in her entire lifetime. So...
If she was pregnant, it would be no problem for her to raise her child alone. Furthermore, her child could even keep her company when she grew older.
But if Chuck knew, then....
Willa sighed. It was safer for her to take the medicine.
It was both unfair to the child and to Chuck. If she really did give birth to his child, wouldn't she be forcing him to marry her?
Chuck didn't like her, so how could she do that?
Willa thought about it for a long time. She bought the medicine and placed it in her bag. She would eat it when she got home.
Chuck's mind was still full of the dream he had about Yvette and him. Once he had returned, he kept holding her in his arms.
"Hubby, what are you doing?" Yvette was startled.
Why was Chuck being so clingy?
He already told her that he had gotten drunk the night before and didn't return.
Yvette understood it completely.
When Chuck told her about last night's dream, Yvette's face turned red and she grumbled, "You little jerk. What on earth were you thinking?"
Chuckfrinned, "Fine, I'll stop."
"Alright, let's get down to business. Hubby, the Yeager family will definitely try to deal with us. What should we do?" Yvette was worried.
Chuck showed Yvette his cellphone and she blushed, "Who's that? Who did you learn this from?"
He laughed and explained to her that it was Loomis. Yvette was surprised, but when she looked at it carefully, she felt a little relieved and exclaimed, "Fine then. What is Aunt Karen planning to do?"
Upon noticing Yvette's tone and address towards Karen, Chuck could only chuckle. He was happy to hear her speaking comfortably.
"That's the only name I can call her by. Do you want me to call her by her name?" Yvette said with a sigh.
"Of course not. I'll tell you about her plans," With that, Chuck told her about Karen's intentions.
After he finished talking, Yvette's beautiful eyes lit up. So that was how it was going to be...
"Madam Sophia, there are some people outside to see you!" Sophia of the Lawrence family answered a phone call from her own security guard.
"Who is it? Didn't I already say that I won't meet anyone recently?"
Sophia frowned. Since she had agreed to cooperate with Chuck and even had an affair with him, she decided to give it her all.
If she could earn profits faster, she could make money for Chuck.
After all, Sophia still felt that she had taken advantage of Chuck. She felt guilty, so she wanted to make it up to him as much as she could.
Money was the most direct way for her to do so.
"Don't be angry, Madam. He only said one word," The voice on the phone was shaky.
"What did he say?"
"Yeager!”
Sophia was astonished. Yeager? What Yeager?
Was that person messing around with her?
Suddenly, the expression on her face changed drastically!
"How many people are there?" Sophia asked.
"Two."
"Let them in!"
"Yes, madam!"
After hanging up the phone, Sophia took a deep breath. As one of the Four Greatest Households, she definitely heard of the hidden families before.
The Yeager family was one of them!
However, none of the three hidden families had sought her out before. What was happening?
Sophia thought about it, but she could only find out after meeting them.
After a while, someone entered the room.
It was Loomis, followed by one of his bodyguards!
Why was he here?
It was simple. As the largest military supplier in the world, the Lawrence family was home to the technology of many different weapons.
He wanted Sophia to make a few bombs. Better, he wanted her to make the type that Chuck had brought before, those that couldn't be detected easily.
After all, Chuck had dirt on him right now, so he would definitely be controlled by Chuck for the rest of his life if he didn't do anything! He thought of a plan, and decided to try to bomb Chuck up secretly!Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Sophia had never seen Loomis before, but she knew from one glance that he was from the Yeager family. He was pretty domineering.
"It's said that Sophia Lawrence is a charming and well- maintained beauty. I finally see with my own eyes that it's true," Loomis smiled.
Hearing this, Sophia was secretly disgusted. She hated others talking like this to her. Besides, he was not Chuck. Why was he saying those things to her?
"What can I do for you?" She went straight to the point.
"Oh, it's not a big deal. I want you to make something for me," Loomis continued smiling.
"What is it?"
"A bomb the size of a glass marble."
Sophia was shocked. Wasn't this the bomb Chuck had asked her to make last time?
She had started on production recently, but there were still a few adjustments to make.
"Doesn’t your company study this kind of stuff?" Loomis walked over.
"No. But if you want, I can help you to do some research," Sophia felt that Loomis was extremely annoying at first glance.
Loomis smiled and pinched Sophia's chin. She immediately backed away in anger and frowned, "What the hell are you doing?"
Bang!
Loomis raised his hand and slapped Sophia in the face.
Blood trickled from the corner of her lips as she fell onto the ground.
Her pretty face was reddened and swollen, looking gruesome and painful.
"Does it hurt?" Loomis was still full of smiles.
Sophia got up on her own and glared at him. She would've called for her men to come in if she was dealing with someone else. However, this was the Yeager family she was dealing with. It was one of the powerful hidden families!
As the head of the family, Sophia knew how powerful they were, so she had to consider her family's sake.
Therefore, Sophia did not react to the slap just now.
"Do you think you can hide from me? I heard that you have a lab that has started making such bombs. Do you still want to lie to me?" Loomis snorted.
Sophia was stunned. He actually knew about it?
"Don't be so surprised. Don't forget that one-third of the world belongs to my family. What can you hide from me? So, let me ask you again! Do you have the bomb?" Loomis walked over towards her step by step.
"What do you want those for?" Sophia asked vigilantly.
"It's none of your business. Sophia Lawrence, answer me! Do you have it or not?" Loomis sneered.
He pinched Sophia's chin again.
Sophia pushed his hand away and shouted, "Don't touch me!!"
"Hah!"
Bang!
Loomis immediately slapped her again and she fell to the ground. She was quite miserable now as the head of her family.
