"I have news about the Cannon family!" exclaimed Betty.
She was running towards Chuck as she spoke.
After several days of investigation, she finally had found some traces of the Cannon's family's working background through exhaustive means.
Chuck said, "Then, let's head over there right now!"
He could not wait any longer.
Willa's death had truly put Chuck on the verge of madness!
Chuck had dreamt of Willa every night throughout his past few days of suffering.
He was determined to avenge Willa, his mother and Black Rose!
"Alright! I've already arranged for a car." Betty knew Chuck was anxious, thus she had gotten everything ready.
"Ah, wait for me in the car. I'll go and call Yvette!" Chuck told her.
Betty entered the car and waited for Chuck.
"Honey!" Chuck ran to find Yvette.
"Hubby, I'm not going," decided Yvette.
The person who had assassinated Willa, namely Sabina, would find a way to assassinate her, just like how she had done to Willa!
Yvette knew that extremely well.
Therefore, she had decided to silently leave the place like how Willa had done.
She did not want to drag Chuck into her troubles again.
"What are you going to do?" asked Chuck. He was aware of her intentions.
"I won't do anything. I just have some personal matters to take care of." Yvette shook her head and answered coldly. She could not look Chuck in the eyes.
Chuck's eyes saw through her.
Without another word, he kissed her.
Surprise filled Yvette's gorgeous face.
Their lips remained intertwined for rather long.
Finally, Chuck let go of her. "Are you still leaving?"
"I..." Yvette felt resentful towards him. She had been caught off guard by Chuck's actions!
"If you continue speaking, I'll kiss you again and I won't stop until you've run out of breath. Do you want that to happen?" "No, I don't!"
"Let's go then!"
Chuck brought Yvette out with him.
Yvette sighed.
They got into the car.
Then, Betty drove them to their destination.
The journey was short.
"This hotel should belong to the Cannons! We can go in to contact them," Betty announced.
Chuck held Yvette's hand tightly. "Don't run away!"
"I won't," Yvette replied sweetly with a sigh.
The three of them entered the hotel.
A short while passed.
"Ah, Chuck. You weren't qualified to join the Cannon family at first as you shouldn't have been born in the first place! Your mother, Karen, was one of my pawns. You, on the other hand, aren't even qualified to be one! However, things are different now. Karen, who I valued the most, has died. Since you are so proactive, I won't let you down!" mused Osford.
"As Chadrick's son, I don't think you'll mind me using you to give him a wake up call!"
In the darkness, the head of Cannon family's teeth shone as he laughed sinisterly.
His entire face was covered in wrinkles and it exuded a terrifying aura!
"Mr. Cannon, I've brought Chuck here!"
"Let him in, and only him alone!"
"Alright, Betty and Yvette who have come with Chuck insisted on coming with him, but I didn't allow them to do so. What right do they have to come here?" responded the attendant.
"Well done! Let him in!"
"Yes, Mr. Cannon!"
"Luqman!" called the head of the Cannon family.
Behind him, a man appeared. He was in his thirties, and his face was wearing a stony expression!
He was the top fighter of the Cannon family, Luqman Harris!
"What can I do for you, Mr. Cannon?" enquired Luqman.
He waited for an order.
"When Chuck comes in later, test him for me! I want to know how much he lacks compared to his mother!"
"Yes, Mr. Cannon. Be rest assured! However, I have something to say, but I'm not quite sure if I have the right to do so," said Luqman.
"Just tell me. The Harris family has worked for the Cannon family for so many years and you've contributed immensely!" praised Osford.
Luqman replied, "Chuck is the son of Young Master Chadrick. What if Young Master Chadrick discovers how we've treated Chuck?" "If Chadrick finds out about this, then so be it. Even if I were to kill Chuck in front of Chadrick, what can he do to me?" answered Osford with a sneer.
