Chapter 10
Chuck Cannon was very worried. If Yvette Jordan knew she had bought this car, what would she do? He doesn't want her to know now.
However, Chuck worries unnecessarily, Yvette drives very fast. They passed by in a flash of light and he didn't even look at her at all. It seemed like he never thought that he would be able to afford this car. He heaved a sigh of relief and stepped on the gas pedal to accelerate.
Yvette glanced at the rearview mirror with a cold look. He's a little confused. "This car is one of the top luxury cars in the series, right? It cost over two million dollars. Whose car is that?"
He had lived in this area for a long time, and he knew almost all the cars. Someone must have bought a car. However, such a wasteful car was expensive, so who could afford it?
As she pondered about it, Yvette had already returned to the area where she lived. He came back to pick up his phone when he realized he forgot to take it when he was out just now. However, he did not see Chuck who was supposed to be carrying a large bag downstairs. He frowned to himself and muttered, "Did he take a taxi and leave so quickly?"
"Still taking a taxi in such a cash-strapped situation? Desperate from him". Yvette shook her head coldly…..
Chuck drove his BMW to a furniture store. He does not want to buy excessive furniture because practicality is more important.
But others don't think so. Driving an amazing car, salespeople have recommended the most expensive furniture for Chuck. A bed that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and a sofa that costs about seventy or eighty thousand dollars. Chuck sighed. Yes, he had money now, but he could not spend it carelessly.
In the end, Chuck spent 200,000 dollars on two beds, a sofa, a closet, etc. It's almost done. They can be sent tomorrow. Chuck took the receipt and walked out of the furniture store, but….
When she comes out, she sees her classmate Queenie Carson, who has a good relationship with Chuck. He still remembers how he defended her when she said he had 'taken some money'.
However, he was a little frustrated that somehow he accidentally scratched his new car with his bike.
Queenie looked frightened as her face paled. He had wiped the scratched area with a wet tissue while tears ran down his eyes. But how could the scratch be covered with tissue?
Queenie realized this and could not help but cry. His family was very ordinary, but he definitely recognized popular brands like BMW! She was crying because she couldn't afford it.
Chuck couldn't stand it anymore and rushed up to him. "Queen, what are you crying about?"
When Queenie saw that there was someone she knew, she stood up and cried even more anxiously. He could not stop his tears from flowing. "Ah? Chuck, I hit somebody's car. I didn't realize that I accidentally bumped into him while I was riding my bike. I tried to get it out with a tissue but couldn't. What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do? should I do?"
Seeing Queenie crying so sadly, Chuck couldn't stand it. He really wanted to say, "It's okay. This is my car"
However, there would be some problems if he said so. Queenie would definitely ask where she got the money from. It's not easy to answer. His mother is still abroad and has not returned.
"It's a BMW, which must be very expensive. It might cost more than three hundred thousand dollars. What should I do?" She was so worried that she cried.
Chuck felt helpless. If he told her that the car was worth 2,450,000 dollars, she would probably cry all day.
"It's just a small matter, people won't notice it. Its alright. Let's go" Chuck said.
“I…. No, I have to admit that I made a mistake. I'll pay for it, but I have to pay. I'll beg the car owner to let me do it for my family…." She bit her lips and cried with tears in her eyes.
Chuck stood helpless. Queenie is a good person with principles and virtues. He will admit his mistake. But who would he admit in this situation?
"Chuck, can you keep me company waiting for the owner to come? I'm afraid to be alone" Queenie whispered in an imploring tone.
"Okay, let's wait" Chuck smiled and pulled her to sit on the ground next to him.
"Thank you".
"It's okay".
"By the way, what are you doing here?"
"I'm, I'm looking into whether there's a part-time job here"
"Oh…."
After a moment of silence, Queenie's mind began to drift. "Will the owner be rude? What if he wants to beat me up? Will she…."
"It's okay". Seeing Queenie about to cry again, Chuck rushed to comfort her.
"How do I expect the owner of this car to be someone I know! I will be able to ask him to let me pay in installments. But now, this stranger, I'm afraid he won't agree ...."
"Yes, he'll do it. Don't think too much. If you are sincere, others will definitely agree".
"I wish so…"
Chuck waited with Queenie until ten p.m., and nearby shops were all shut down. Since it was already dark, he was even more afraid. Chuck could only say, "His owner hasn't come in a long time. I don't think he's coming. Let's go"
"I hope the owner of this car will call me, I will replace it" he said.
"Yes". Chuck nodded, but he would definitely not call her. He would ask the saleswoman, Charlotte Yales and ask how much it cost. He'll finish it himself.
"Thank you for waiting so long, let me buy you dinner. But I don't have much money, is 50 dollars enough for both of us?" Queenie looked at Chuck seriously and said in a small but sincere voice.
"I'll treat you" Chuck said with a smile.
"No, you've been with me for so long, so I have to treat you. What do you want to eat?"
"Yes up to you"
"Then, what about noodles?" Queeny asked.
Chuck agreed with that, so they went to a nearby noodle restaurant. Chuck was hungry and felt much more comfortable after eating a bowl of noodles. Queenie was in a better mood, but she was still worried. He may still be thinking about compensation. In the middle of the meal, Chuck receives a call from Lara Jean, which is unexpected.
Chuck was not surprised. After all, Lara paid over 6,000 dollars yesterday.
"Hey, is this Chuck? I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. I'll buy you dinner and apologize. Are you free now?" Lara asked in a sweet voice.
Of course, Chuck won't be fooled. "I don't have time. I have to work part-time tomorrow".
"Running out of money so fast?" Lara was filled with humiliation, but she was even more furious. If he really had no money, then what would happen to the six thousand dollars he was forced to pay yesterday? He definitely can't fill the gap in his financial allowance, and he really has to find Chuck to get him back!
"Of course"
"It's okay. I'll buy you dinner. We're both alone" said Lara.
Chuck's surprised. Just him and Lara? Indeed, Lara is still very pretty, with a plump body size and sexy fashion sense as well. They were all in the same class, and it was inevitable that he would see something when he lowered his head or bowed. Chuck doesn't deny that he's seen her before. However, he was not interested in such a person.
"What about your girlfriend?" ask Chuck.
"We broke up yesterday. I'm so sad, can you come with me? Please". Laras grinned. Conrad Lee, his girlfriend, holds Lara by his side and continues to touch her, with a sinister smile on her face.
"Decap? But I really don't have time. You can find someone else".
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if you don't have time today. We can meet the day after tomorrow or tomorrow. Tell me the time and I'll be there"
"We'll see later"
"Okay, I'm closing. But don't tell anyone else that I broke up with my boyfriend. I'm afraid they'll mock me".
"okay".
As she hung up the phone, Lara exclaimed in despair. "I can't believe he didn't take the bait!"
"Why don't you go and flirt with her tomorrow? Give her a sense of forbidden lust first, and she'll ask you out on a date herself", Conrad thought for a moment and said.
"Are you crazy? Asking me to tease him. How disgusting is that? I don't even want to see her, and you're asking me to tease her?" Angry barrel.
"What else can we do? If you don't tease him, he'll never take the bait! If he doesn't take the bait, to whom can we ask for 6,000 dollars?"
"But! Ah, fucking Chuck. It's an advantage for him!" Lara stomped her feet.
"Well, for 6,000 dollars, we can only sacrifice a little". Conrad said and started to play Lara.
………………………………………
Chuck and Queenie out of the noodle shop. Suddenly, Queenie screams, and Chuck asks what happened.
"It's 11 o'clock. The gate of the dormitory is closed, what should we do?" Queenie's anxious.
Chuck used to live with Yvette. He did not live in the dormitory, but he knew that the boarding gate of the school was closed at exactly eleven o'clock. It's true that he can't access it now.
Chuck's not thinking about this right now. He could only say unintentionally, "Why don't we get a room to sleep in tonight?"
It is estimated that the furniture can only be moved to the house tomorrow. Chuck had planned to book a room for today, but he said it impulsively, but…. It might not be something worth saying to girls.
