Chapter 497
Chuck asked in concern, "Auntie Logan, are you hungry? I''ll buy you something."
Chuck was actually quite surprised. Wi was such a strong woman, but she never lost her temper
with him. Instead, she was always smiling as if she was always in a pleasant mood.
"I''m fine. You should go and rest. You''re injured too," Wi shook her head. She was worried that
Chuck would copse.
"I won''t, I want to stay with you, Auntie Logan. Can I?" Chuck was reluctant to leave her. He only
wanted to apany Auntie Logan since he had almost lost her a while ago.
Wi smiled gently, "Sure, you can rest on the bed there."
"No, I want to hold your hand."
Chuck wanted to feel Wi''s warmth. He was afraid that she would lose her pulse and warmth out of
a sudden. He would regret it for life.
"Alright," Wi was willing to do whatever she could if Chuck asked.
Chuck held her hand and closed his eyes contentedly. It felt quitefortable and peaceful, as
though he was sleeping on Wi''sp.
Wi''s hand was unexpectedly soft and supple. Chuck had imagined her hands to feel as tough and
rough since she had been training for some time. Since Wi was so skilled, her body would be buff
and her muscles well-toned.
Yet, it was the exact opposite of what he felt. He fell asleep soon, snoring softly as though he was
sleeping on a soft pillow.
When Wi saw Chuck finally falling asleep from the exhaustion, she was relieved. It was only then
that she touched her lips peculiarly. She had a feeling that someone touched her lips when she had
lost consciousness... Was it just her imagination?
Probably.
Wi smiled. It was nice to see him sleep like a baby...
Maybe that was a sign of him finally feeling at ease!
Wi woke up quite early the next morning, but Chuck was still sleeping soundly. Since she was
quite physically fit, she only felt a slight ache in her body after the operation. She had regained most
of her strength back and could probably walk in a few days with enough rest.
When she saw Chuck stirring in his sleep, she couldn''t help but chuckle. This kid had slept with his
hand in hers for the whole night...
Chuck woke up in a daze. When he saw Wi, he felt at ease. She definitely looked better
compared to before.
He reluctantly let go of Wi''s hands, unable to believe he had held her hands so tightly for a whole
night.
"Auntie Logan, I will get you something to eat," Chuck stood up and announced.
"Okay."
"Auntie Logan, what do you want to eat?"
"I''ll eat whatever you order, Chucky."
Chuck walked out with ease, only then remembering that he had left Yvette sleeping on the seats
out in the corridor overnight. He was touched and also remorseful to have forgotten about his wife.
She must''ve been cold and tired.
He walked over and gently carried her in his arms. Yvette was startled and woke up, realizing it was
Chuck. She sighed in relief and leaned her head against his chest, mumbling, "Hubby..."
She tried to tell herself it was fine, that it was alright for Chuck to have forgotten about her.
Ultimately, her feelings overwhelmed her, and she was slightly upset.
However, she didn''t express it. Wi was seriously injured, so it was fine for Chuck to apany
her instead. As a proper wife, it was her duty to wait for him patiently.
"I''m sorry forst night," Chuck said with guilt.
Yvette shook her head, her face blushing as she assured him, "It''s alright, Hubby. By the way,
where are you carrying me to?"
Was he having lecherous thoughts again?
"You need proper rest," Chuck said as he requested for a room in the ward. Since this was Wi''s
hospital, they could stay as long as they wanted.
He carried Yvette into the room and ced her on a bed. Then, he kissed Yvette on the forehead
and said, "Sleep well. I''ll order breakfast for you."
"Okay."
Just as he was about to leave, Yvette tugged on his sleeve bashfully and asked, "Hubby, could you
stay with me for a while?"
She was about to get hunted down by killers. By then, she would have to go in hiding, with no way
to see Chuck for a long time.
Chuck already felt guilty for leaving her alone for the whole night, so he agreed. Hey down on
Yvette''s bed and made small talk with her. It was as though they had gone back to the past.
After a while, Chuck came out of the room and went to order breakfast. Along the way, Cheryl called
him and he picked up her call.
She asked anxiously, "Hello, Mr. Cannon, have you found Frieda?"
She couldn''t get a wink of sleep the whole night!
Her nudes were still in Frieda''s phone, and they could be spread any second. Last night, she did
nothing but refresh the news to check if her photos had gone viral.
The whole night passed peacefully, but Cheryl was already on the verge of breaking down. She
couldn''t hold herself back and called Chuck to see if there were any updates.
Her anxiety was maxed out!
"I have those photos with me now. You cane over and watch me delete them," Chuck said.
Cheryl cried with joy, "You got those photos? Thank you, Mr. Cannon. Where are you now? I''ll be
right there!"
Her worries had lifted and hope had returned to her.
Chuck shared his address with her and hung up the call. Then, he went downstairs and gave Betty
a call.
Once the call was connected, Chuck ordered coldly, "Betty, help me find ck Rose. Find her no
matter what it takes!"
ck Rose was the main culprit for Wi''s injury. Not to mention, that b*tch, Frieda Olmedo!

Both of them had to die! Especially Frieda!
Chuck never expected her to be so ruthless. He had underestimated her.
"I''m on it!" Betty started her investigation. Soon, she managed to track down ck Rose and
Frieda, only to find both of them in the United States.
"Young Master, ck Rose has left the country."
"Where did she go?" Chuck asked coldly.
"If I''m not mistaken, they should have gone back to the United States."
Chuck was stoic. ck Rose was always on the offense in her attempt to assassinate Chuck, while
he would mostly be on the receiving end as he tried to defend himself. However, this time it was
different. ck Rose shouldn''t have hurt Wi!
"Alright, help me book the tickets. I will depart for the United States in a few days!" Chuck was
determined to kill Frieda and ck Rose. No more waiting. Even if they returned to the United
States, he was going to hunt them down and kill them, once and for all!
Chuck already had a way to force ck Rose to show up the moment he arrived in the States. He
had checked Frieda''s phone and found out there were a lot of photos of ck Rose other than
Cheryl''s.
He could definitely force ck Rose to reveal herself with these photos.
When the time came, he would set traps for her so she wouldn''t be able to escape!
Betty reminded him, "Young Master, President Lee requested you to stay in the country."
It would be dangerous for Chuck to be in the United States simply because Brayden Lee and the
Lee family would be around.
It was even direr since Karen had cut off her ties with the Lee family.
To leave for the United States without a n and a strong backing was too risky.
Chuck''s eyes were bloodshot as he insisted, "Betty, I''m going to the United States to kill ck Rose
myself! Auntie Logan was injured and she almost died..."
Betty was shocked, "What? Alright, Young Master, I will make preparations for you right away.
Young Master, how strong are you now? The United States is a dangerous ce!" She was furious,
unable to believe that Wi had almost lost her life because of ck Rose.
How serious had things be?
"I know," Chuck had made up his mind. He would depart for the United States once Wi was fully
recovered. Then, he would hunt down ck Rose and Frieda.
He wanted to kill them both, especially Frieda. He wanted to make sure she got what she deserved
before she died a painful death at his hands.
"I''ll make the necessary arrangements once I get permission from President Lee."
"Okay," Chuck had no objection to it. Of course, she had to ask his mother first.
Chuck hung up. Meanwhile, Betty immediately made a call to Karen. Once Karen picked up, she
quickly reported, "Something happened to Young Master and President Logan almost died..."
Chuck was about to go back up when Cheryl arrived. She ran over to him and called out urgently,
"Mr. Cannon."
He looked at her and nodded, turning on Frieda''s phone in front of her. Then, he started deleting the
photos one by one. Cheryl was furious and relieved. How insane would Frieda need to be to take so
many videos and photos of women?
As the photos were finally erased out of existence, she sighed, d that everything was now over.
She quickly thanked Chuck, "Thank you, Mr. Cannon."
She was thinking about how to repay Chuck while she was on her way. After all, she didn''t expect
him to go out of his way to help her.
"You can rx now."
"Yes, thank..."
Before Cheryl could finish thanking him, Chuck turned around and went into the elevator. He didn''t
bother to stay any longer as his only current concern was Wi''s safety and health. He refused to
waste time on anyone other than her. Speaking of which, he should be having breakfast with Wi
now!
Cheryl was dumbfounded. She didn''t expect Chuck to interrupt her midway and not even ask her for
a favour!
She was relieved, but somehow, she also felt quite disappointed...
