Chapter 588
Betty was shocked. Karen had exceeded her expectations once again. She honestly thought that
the Karen she was looking at now was at her peak.
"But won''t this hidden family... Won''t they start to..." Betty was concerned.
Currently, the dilemma with the Oatker family was yet resolved. To make matters worse, this hidden
family wasn''t one that the Four Greatest Households couldpare themselves to.
"It doesn''t matter. No one is allowed to force my son into anything. I''ll settle this for him," Karen said.
"Alright then, I''ll take Young Master back hometer. How should we deal with the Lawrence
Family?" Betty asked.
Chuck had been beaten into a miserable state this time round. They had to return the favour back to
them tenfold!
"I asked Chucky, but I don''t think he knows much about that. Come on, let''s head back," Karen
replied.
"Oh, by the way, how about the person who has been spying on Young Master all this while? Should
we just let him be?" Betty asked in a worried tone.
It was a big issue, wasn''t it? If this was to continue on, wouldn''t Chuck''s whereabouts be known to
that woman all the time?
"Just leave it. Don''t provoke the Whitlock family for the time being. Let me deal with the affairs of the
Oatker family first, and..." Karen suddenly trailed off into silence.
"Is this about Young Master''s father, Chadrick?" Betty inquired.
She could feel that Karen was very disappointed.
Karen had nted a tracking device on the bullet and followed it. She must have found something
out.
Additionally, Chadrick had not been in contact recently. After all, the news about Karen''s break-in
into the Lee family household in the middle of the night had already spread throughout the country.
It was impossible for him to not know about it at this point.
"Well, I''ll figure it out soon. He... Why would he have such thoughts? Chucky is his own flesh and
blood, I don''t understand why he would do this," Karen said, feeling upset.
She really could not figure it out.
If she did something wrong, he could''ve told her!
"President Lee, don''t overthink too much. The Young Master is still waiting," Betty reminded.
She could feel Karen''s evident sadness.
After all, this man who she had been loyal to for so long did not return the favour.
It was too confusing.
Karen grunted softly in acknowledgement. She shook her head and tried to sort out her thoughts.
She then took out her phone and called ck Rose. ck Rose was still in the jungle searching
high and low. When her phone started to vibrate, she looked at the caller I.D. and saw that it was
Karen.
She answered the call straight away.
"Wi has found my son."
ck Rose let out an audible sigh of relief at that. She had spent so many days searching for him,
so she could finally rest now.
"I''ll send you an address. Come over and have dinner with me," Karen continued.
"I''d better rest up first. I just found a nice tree to sleep on, so I''m going to take a shrt nap."
"Alright, thank you."
"No problem. He... I''m d to hear that he''s alright," ck Rose said, hanging up the phone
instantly. She climbed up the aforementioned tree and found a perfect spot to lie down.
It was incrediblyfortable.
She was exhausted. With eyes closed, her thoughts started to wander. "Some green bean cake
would be amazing right now..." She thought, licking her lips at the image of the cake she had
conjured in her mind.
"Auntie Logan,"
Chuck had wanted to resume his slumber. However, now that he wasying his head on Wi''sp,
he couldn''t lull himself to sleep.
After hearing what his mother had said just now, he couldn''t stop his thoughts from flooding his
brain. "What''s wrong?" Wi asked, smiling gently. Shebed through Chuck''s hair with her hand
affectionately.
"I can''t sleep."
"Do you want to talk then?"
"That would be nice. Hey, Auntie Logan, can I ask you a question?" Chuck looked at her.
"Sure, go for it."
Chuck wanted to ask why Wi never wore short jeans. After all, he really wanted to see how it
would look on her. However, he knew that it was too inappropriate of a question to ask her.

"What is it?" Wi prompted softly with a smile after Chuck fell silent.
"I... Oh, forget it. I''m going to go back to sleep," He shook his head. Wi had done so much just to
find him. How could he ask her such a silly question after all that?
It would definitely make her feel ufortable.
Then, they wouldn''t be able to chat regrly afterwards.
"Why? What is it? You know you can ask me whatever you like, I''ll tell you anything," Wi said
solemnly.
Wi honestly didn''t think too much of it. She knew that the question might have been rted to her
in some ways. Maybe he was curious about what her ns were for tomorrow, or what her hobbies
were, or even something else...
She would never have thought that Chuck might ask her about short jeans of all things. It was a bit
absurd.
She might even be confounded by the question if he really were to ask.
"Um... Nevermind. I''m going to sleep," Chuck shook his head and continued to sleep.
With Wi so close, he could rest well now.
Wi watched as Chuck slowly fell asleep. She was relieved. However, his unasked question was
still bothering her quite a bit.
His evasiveness towards the question had piqued her curiosity.
"You''re talking in your sleep again. What are you dreaming about?... Have you ever dreamt of me?"
Wi lowered her voice and asked quietly, not expecting a reply from. After all, Chuck was asleep,
he wouldn''t be able to hear her anyway.
"I''ll sleep for a while too."
With that in mind, she discreetly held Chuck''s face in her hands and pecked him on the cheek softly.
Then, she closed her eyes and was ready to drift off on the sofa, but...
"Auntie Logan, you..."
An rmed voice filtered into the room.
It was Yvette. Her eyes were wide with shock as she could not believe her eyes.
She had just received a call from Wi and was told that Chuck was safe. At that time, she had
cried with joy in the forest. Without no hesitation, she rushed over. There were so many things she
wanted to say to Chuck...
All she wanted was to spend time together with him now.
However, when Yvette arrived and was about to knock on the door, she found that the door had not
been closed. She pushed the door open slightly and...
She was met with the scene of Wi kissing Chuck...
Yvette was really astonished.
Indeed, in her absentmindedness, Wi did not close the door properly and had been seen.
Seeing Yvette''s shocked expression, Wi''s face started to redden from under her stare. She
quickly averted her gaze from Yvette and removed Chuck''s head from herp, covering him with a
nket.
The room was dead silent now.
After exactly three seconds...
"Yvette, I..." Wi started to exin. Never in her life had she felt as embarrassed as she was now.
If it had been Karen, she would just feel a bit shy about getting caught. After all, Karen had wanted
to set herself up with Chuck at the very beginning anyway.
It wouldn''t have been a big deal if it were Karen.
However, this was Yvette. She had been seen by Chuck''s wife of all people. Wi was panicked,
feeling as though she was going to have a spontaneous breakdown. She felt a flurry of emotions all
at once. There was embarrassment, pain, disappointment, and most prominently, guilt.
She didn''t know what to do at this point. She would rather Yvette walk up to her and p her a few
times. She wouldn''t resist since she was at fault after all.
She knew it was impossible for her and Chuck to be together. She didn''t know what came over her
that she would be bold enough to kiss him just now.
"Yvette, I..." Wi tried to exin. She could sense the change in Yvette''s expression.
From astonishment, anger, and then finally frustration and pain.
"Auntie Logan, let''s have a chat outside," Yvette said, then walked out.
Wi couldn''t get her legs to obey her. She really wished Yvette woulde up to her and p her.
It would definitely make her feel better.
However, Yvette did not do as she had hoped.
Casting a lingering look back at Chuck who was sound asleep, she strode out of the room, her legs
trailing awkwardly behind her.
Once outside, both women looked at each other. Wi had lost her confidence for the first time. She
felt really guilty...
She really didn''t know what to do now.
"Auntie Logan, when did this begin?" Yvette asked as she took a breath and calmed down.
"It... It started back when you disappeared," Wi confessed. At the time, she had spent a lot of time
with Chuck and took care of him when he had been depressed because of Yvette''s disappearance.
Every night, Chuck would fall asleep on herp.
Yvette understood in an instant. She was aware that both Chuck and Wi had stayed together
when she was gone. Wi must have fallen in love with him during that period. It was no wonder
that Wi woulde all this way to find Chuck.
She should have known this long ago, but Yvette had not considered the possibilities in that
direction. She didn''t think that Wi would actually...
"So... You started to have feelings for him since then...?"
"That''s right. I... I''m so sorry. Please, I''ll stop myself from now on, I won''t repeat what I''ve just done
ever again," Wi bowed her head as she apologised profusely.
