Chapter 523
Chapter 523
This was exactly what Karen was worried about. Alexandrina really had no principles. How could she leer at her son like this?
This wasn't love at first sight or anything like that. She just wanted to play with her son.
What did it mean for his son if he was played by a woman?
It would mean that Chuck would become a toy.
This was something Karen absolutely could not tolerate.
Karen and her were almost of the same age. How could she request such a thing? It was disgusting!
Yvette was even taken aback. "So what if my husband's good- looking? What do you want with him?" She thought in defiance.
She turned her eyes at Chuck, feeling a little sorry for him.
Betty was stunned as well. Just what was going on?
However, she also understood why Alexandrina had made such a request. She just wanted to toy with Chuck to get on Karen's nerves. To be more precise, she wanted to see Karen in a dilemma.
Chuck was stunned. He did not see any trace of interest in him through the woman's eyes. The way she looked at him was similar to when a man would look at his sports car. He was being looked at as a toy.
She was going to use him as a tool against his mother.
Of course Chuck would resist. However, it would be for the sake of Yvette... He didn't know what to think.
"What about your other conditions, let's hear them. I'm not pawning off my son no matter what," Karen said solemnly.
She would never allow that to happen.
Chuck was still young. If he got played with by this woman, where could he place his dignity?
She would not back off from this stance of hers no matter what.
"Well then, there's no need for us to continue now, don't you think? I do think your son is cute though. I really like him," Alexandrina said as she took a sip of wine. Her face was flushed from the wine and she looked charming.
"You do? You're not someone who falls in love at first sight," Karen frowned.
"People change, you know?" Alexandrina took another sip of red wine.
"No way! Let me warn you, if you do anything to my son, I'll turn against you!" Karen didn't care too much.
She had to make herself clear.
"Turn against me? How would you..." Before she even finished speaking, Karen put her hand on her shoulder. She did it at the speed of light.
"If I turn against you, no matter how many people you have around you, you won't be able to hide from me," Karen warned lowly.
When Karen was a killer, no one she was tasked to kill could stay alive.
Even if that person was the boss of this killer organisation.
She wouldn't be able to escape either way.
Many would have trembled with fear when her name, Dark Firmament was mentioned.
She had never once failed any jobs she'd been tasked with. She would complete each and every one of those tasks with ease.
"I know," Alexandrina shrugged her shoulders and took another sip of wine leisurely. She was not afraid at all.
"You do know it's pointless to kill me, right?" She continued.
Karen lifted her hand away from her and said, "Don't mess with my son, or I'll revoke our entire history."
If Karen had done that, she would have already taken action by now and killed her. Instead, she chose to negotiate.
"I don't care. I like your son. Let me play with him for a few days, and then... I'll consider removing Blood Leopard's kill order," Alexandrina said calmly, still looking at Karen indifferently.
"Did I not make myself clear enough?"
"Not really. You don't have to worry too much, I won't really play with him. He'll just have to drink with me and do anything else I ask him to. As for what happens at night, that would be entirely up to him..." Her eyes fell on Chuck again, freaking him out.
She was either playing or torturing him at this point. He was being treated like a toy.
"Stop it. I won't let my husband do such a thing! Over my dead body!" Yvette said coldly.
Karen looked back at Yvette at that.
"Oh, he's your husband? That's interesting. I like him more now. I don't care, I want him," She smiled wickedly.
Yvette glared daggers at her.
"Chucky, Yvette, both of you can leave first," Karen said.
With a nod, Yvette walked up to Chuck and held his outstretched hand.
"No. How about all three of you women go out, and leave your precious son here to stay? If he doesn't, it wouldn't matter if you kneeled before me or even begged me again. You know how rich I am, the kill order will just amass more money so killing me would be useless as well!" Alexandrina said.
"Mom, let me talk to her," Chuck made up his mind, he had to make her withdraw the kill order or Yvette would never get to live a peaceful life in the future.
"Chucky."
"Hubby."
"Young Master."
The three women called out to him in unison. Karen was worried that this woman was going to pull some tricks, and Yvette on the other hand felt distressed. This simply wouldn't do!
Betty also felt that this was a bad move.
"Oh, you want to be alone with me, do you? I'd like that. Quick, get them out of here," Alexandrina waved the others off with her hand, her smile charming.
"It's alright, I'll just have a short chat with her. I won't do anything rash, don't worry," Chuck certainly wouldn't do anything.
Karen thought about it for a bit and came to a decision, "Alright. But remember to keep your dignity intact, understand? Just yell for me if you need anything, okay?"
"Okay, Mom, don't worry," Chuck reassured.
"Let's go then," Karen said. Betty nodded in agreement.
However, Yvette was still worried. "Honey, please don't do anything else. I'd rather you be with any other woman but her. Can you promise me that?" She said.
Chuck smiled faintly at her and nodded.
Yvette was now finally at ease. She trusted Chuck. He had chosen to stay single for her own safety all this time, so she was moved.
Soon, Karen, Yvette, and Betty all went out.
"Remember to close the door behind you," Alexandrina said.
Karen looked back at her and closed the door. Yvette lowered her head and fixed her eyes on the floor. She did not dare speak to Karen.
Karen, on the other hand, was talking to Betty. Betty was fussing slightly in worry, "Is the Young Master..."
"It'll be alright. Chucky knows what he's doing," Karen said calmly. She was confident in her son.
Now that she knew that her son was willing to stand up for Yvette, Karen was satisfied. She would pay close attention to the voices inside. If she thought something was going wrong in there, she
would barge in immediately.
"But she..." Betty trailed off. She was worried about that woman. Alexandrina was a little abnormal.
She really thought so.
"She wouldn't dare!" Karen said slowly, narrowing her eyes...
Meanwhile, in the private room.
Only Chuck and Alexandrina were left inside.
Even so, Chuck was not nervous at all. He just sat down leisurely.
Alexandrina watched his movements as she poured him a glass of red wine, "Drink up. I like boys who listen to my instructions."
Chuck did not move an inch as he asked, "What's going to happen next if I do?"
"Well, you haven't been listening to me at all, have you? How do you suppose I continue talking to you? If you want me to release your wife, you have to be obedient. Do you understand?" She snapped.
With that, Chuck finished the glass in his hand in one gulp. It wasn't bad.
"You're not really interested in me, are you?" He asked directly.
"What are you talking about? Every woman of my age like young men. This is the same reason men tend to like younger women. Don't you like women who are younger than you?" She inquired.
Chuck shook his head. He had always liked older women. Yvette, Zelda and Quinn were all older than him...
"You're lying, that's not right," Alexandrina continued to pour Chuck another glass of wine.
"Really? I'm nineteen this year. What sort of women do you expect me to like?" Chuck shrugged.
Chuck was a bit too young. Perhaps it was because he had been charmed by Yvette ever since they were young, so he preferred older women. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
A woman in her twenties was his preference.
"Only nineteen? You're so young! Let me calculate... Karen gave birth to you at the age of twenty- one?" She asked.
Chuck nodded at that.
"Well, now that you've grown up, you must have trained some martial arts, am I right?" She asked.
He grunted.
"How are your skills? Do you think you're good? How many people can you defeat at once?" She started to pester Chuck. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Don't waste my time," Chuck didn't care.
He started to stretch his hand out.
Alexandrina's eyes immediately turned cold as she glared at him. "If you dare touch me, I'll kill you myself!" She threatened.
Chuck smiled at that and said, "Didn't you say you liked me?"
"How dare you trick me! Stay away from me, you hear me?" She demanded coldly.
Chuck was relieved. Sure enough, this woman had just been toying with him. He just needed to find a way to expose her.
