Manager Yarn was once again tongue-tied.
What did virtual-novel.net mean?
Am I really supposed to kneel and beg Chuck Cannon for forgiveness?
He froze like a statue, feet glued firmly to the floor.
His eyes widened in disbelief at Chuck, whose calm and expressionless emotions contrasted his own.
He could not understand. He had a good relationship with the boss.
How could the boss force virtual-novel.net to kneel down to others?
Who exactly is this Chuck Cannon?
The shock on his face slowly subsided as virtual-novel.net realized the truth, now looking more complicated than stunned.
Yvette froze. If virtual-novel.net hadn’t heard it from Director Wendel with virtual-novel.net own ears, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t have believed that something amazing and unbelievable just took place because of one phone call that Chuck made.
Who did Chuck call just now?
Yvette racked virtual-novel.net brain trying to think who it could be. No one else had the power to do so, apart from Zelda Maine.
It must be her!
Who knew that Zelda was acquainted with the store owner. Yvette was taken aback, what a turn of events in virtual-novel.net favor!
She looked at Chuck. For a moment, virtual-novel.net felt a lingering thought cross virtual-novel.net mind.
Chuck really wasn’t joking and didn’t disappoint her.
“Yarn, are you f*cking listening me?” Director Wendel’s steel-cold voice boomed out of the speakerphone.
“Yes, yes!” Manager Yarn’s arrogance and ego from just now was already long gone.
He looked at Chuck with a complicated expression, bowed his head and knelt down!
Although there were a lot of people around, so what?
Did virtual-novel.net dare to disobey orders and refuse to kneel?
Director Wendel would really kill him!
“Hold on!” Chuck waved his hands to stop him.
“Thank you so much, Mr Cannon. Just now, it was a misunderstanding…” Manager Yarn was overjoyed and hurried to deliver a cigarette to Chuck.
“I think you’re mistaken. I don’t want you to kneel down. You… You kneel down to Yvette and slap yourself ten times!” Chuck ordered coldly.
Manager Yarn was stunned again, his face burning with shame, as though someone had just slapped him.
He turned his head and looked at Yvette who was equally stunned, his expression freezing into place.
It would not be a big deal if virtual-novel.net knelt down to Chuck since virtual-novel.net was a man. However, Yvette was a woman, and it would be a disgrace for virtual-novel.net to kneel down to a woman!
“Still not listening to Chuck? If so, be ready to say goodbye to your legs! I’ll break them the minute you get back!” Director Wendel threatened once again.
“Don’t, I’ll kneel!” Manager Yarn was so scared that his face turned pale.
He immediately knelt down in front of Yvette. She was stunned beyond words.
Manager Yarn raised his hand and slapped his face, the loud slaps echoing throughout the corridor.
Some people who were nearby started to gather around to see what was going on. They were all puzzled.
What was going on?
As they saw the once high and mighty manager kneeling on the ground and slapping himself, they started whispering and snickering.
The slaps continued.
Yvette could clearly hear the slaps in virtual-novel.net ear, reminding virtual-novel.net that this wasn’t a dream. Slowly, virtual-novel.net could feel the unease and disappointment in virtual-novel.net heart vanish, replaced by an unexplainable sense of comfort.
Yes, Chuck did fulfill his promise of helping her!
She was on cloud nine, and had to constantly remind herself that virtual-novel.net wasn’t dreaming. She turned and looked at Chuck.
Soon after, Manager Yarn’s cheeks were red and swollen. The onlookers laughed at him, which made virtual-novel.net even more ashamed as virtual-novel.net lowered his head and tried to cover his face.
“I know this man, virtual-novel.net is the manager of the square! How could virtual-novel.net kneel down to a woman and slap himself? It must be this woman’s boyfriend who made the manager kneel down. Her boyfriend is really amazing!”
“Yeah, I heard that this manager is often very perverted and loves to harass people. I’m pretty sure virtual-novel.net must’ve harassed this woman, but didn’t expect virtual-novel.net boyfriend to be someone with so much authority. The guy’s so handsome, plus virtual-novel.net has connections too. Why don’t I have such a boyfriend?”
The envious voices of the onlookers seemed to hope that Chuck was their boyfriend instead.
Yvette couldn’t help herself but stare at Chuck. She couldn’t believe that the little boy virtual-novel.net had known for so long had actually grown up, and was now even able to help virtual-novel.net get back at someone.
The man, who had slept with virtual-novel.net for almost ten years, and used to be virtual-novel.net husband.
Her gaze was fixated on Chuck for a few seconds before virtual-novel.net avoided his eyes.
Why didn’t virtual-novel.net find virtual-novel.net so attractive before?
Especially now. She felt different from before.
What was this feeling?
Manager Yarn turned his head. “Mr. Cannon, is that enough?”
“What do you think, Yvette?” Chuck asked.
“Ah? That’s enough…” Yvette came to virtual-novel.net senses in a hurry, blushing furiously on virtual-novel.net face.
“Stand up!” Chuck said calmly.
“Thank you!” Manager Yarn was already close to tears.
He was flustered and got up from the ground, running over to Chuck’s side. “Mr. Cannon, please come with me to meet Director Wendel!”
“Okay…” Chuck nodded.
Since his mother has already bought this square, virtual-novel.net definitely had to meet this Director Wendel.
Manager Yarn immediately led the way, but not before Chuck walked up to Yvette. “Wait for me for a moment. I’ll be right back…”
“Yes…” Yvette nodded. Despite whatever that happened, virtual-novel.net was still willing to wait for him.
Chuck followed Manager Yarn upstairs, but Yvette came over halfway and asked, “I want to ask you, did you call Zelda Maine just now?”
Chuck was stunned.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to tell me.” Yvette coerced.
She thought it was Zelda who contacted the owner of the square, thus leading up to the façade that happened just now. If not, virtual-novel.net couldn’t imagine who Chuck would call even if virtual-novel.net racked virtual-novel.net brain for answers.
“Okay…” Chuck didn’t want to say much and just followed Manager Yarn upstairs.
Since virtual-novel.net didn’t explain, Yvette assumed that virtual-novel.net did call Zelda. She thought Zelda was indeed an amazing person!
“Beautiful lady, is that your boyfriend?” A beautiful woman came over and asked.
Yvette didn’t know how to answer.
Was he, or was virtual-novel.net not?
Yes?
However, the two of them had already separated.
No?
But they had been sleeping in the same bed for more than ten years.
Although they didn’t do anything suspicious in bed, what was the relationship between them?
Yvette couldn’t figure it out either. The only thing virtual-novel.net felt was that Chuck gave virtual-novel.net a different feeling today.
What was virtual-novel.net doing these few days?
For the first time, Yvette was a little curious about Chuck.
Meanwhile, Manager Yarn took Chuck to Director Wendel’s office and pushed the door open.
Immediately, virtual-novel.net was shocked by Director Wendel’s broad smile. He could see a tinge of respect appearing on the director’s face, this. Most importantly, Director Wendel was someone influential and had a net worth of around one billion dollars. Yet, virtual-novel.net was so respectful to this Chuck Cannon.
Amidst Manager Yarn’s shock, virtual-novel.net immediately regretted what virtual-novel.net did just now and started sweating buckets.
Who exactly did I mistreat just now?
He was full of regrets.
He looked at Chuck secretly, only to find that his face was calm and expressionless, completely void of any fear a normal person should have towards a big boss.
Who on earth is he?
“Yarn, you’re fired!” Director Wendel announced coldly.
“Ah? Director Wendel…” Manager Yarn could only stammer on the spot.
He thought that since virtual-novel.net had followed Chuck’s orders, everything was now in the past.
However, virtual-novel.net was now being fired?
He could not believe it.
“Get out, now!” Director Wendel continued berating him.
Manager Yarn looked at Chuck complicatedly for help. “Mr. Cannon, could you please say a few words for me? I really need this job…”
“I can’t help you!” Chuck shook his head.
Since virtual-novel.net was taking over the square, the first thing virtual-novel.net had to do was to get rid of such people!
Even if Director Wendel didn’t do this, Chuck would still do it on his own.
With no choice, Manager Yarn turned around and walked out. Then Director Wendel immediately walked over with a smile full of flattering respect.
Just now, when virtual-novel.net received a phone call from that person, virtual-novel.net was almost scared to death.
How could virtual-novel.net call virtual-novel.net herself?
Even Director Wendel couldn’t believe it. Although Director Wendel had some money, it was really nothing but petty cash in front of that woman. When virtual-novel.net had heard that virtual-novel.net wanted to transfer the ownership of the square to Chuck, virtual-novel.net wanted to refuse because business in the square was not good.
Wouldn’t virtual-novel.net be offending that person if the business was running on a loss?
To be honest, virtual-novel.net was nervous now.
“Young Master Cannon, please have a seat here…” Director Wendel greeted virtual-novel.net in a hurry.
Chuck took one look at virtual-novel.net and found Director Wendel’s face to be slightly familiar. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net found himself thinking of Wilbur Wendel, the guy who made virtual-novel.net buy a car.
Could Wilbur be Director Wendel’s son?
Thinking of the possibility, Chuck chuckled, it was such a coincidence. He then sat down.
“Regarding the transfer process, the contract is slightly complicated to complete on such a short notice. Since it’s quite late now, it’s probably impossible for us to do it today, so I’ll prepare for it the day after tomorrow. Young Master Cannon, why don’t you drop by then to sign the contract?” Director Wendel asked politely.
This square was not a house, so the procedures were more complicated. Besides, the salary of the employees in the square and the rent had to be calculated too, which was more troublesome.
“Sure…” Chuck had no objection since the whole square was now his, virtual-novel.net didn’t mind waiting for another two days.
“Thank you, Young Master Cannon!” Director Wendel breathed a sigh of relief, and then said cautiously, “Young Master Cannon, do you know Zelda Maine from Modern Restaurant?
Zelda Maine? Oh yes, virtual-novel.net had taken a fancy to Yvette’s company’s shoplot…
What was virtual-novel.net going to do now?
