Chapter 113 Are You Protecting Him?
Yvette had tried to forget that.
However, a deluge of news came out the day after Yazminâs birthday, reporting Lance and Yazmin would eventually get married.
Some witnesses who had attended the birthday party confirmed Lance and Yazmin were getting along well and that the news was true.
Since the news could be publicized, it meant Lance had acquiesced. Otherwise, it would be easy for him to delete the false news.
When Charlie talked about that, it was impossible for Yvette to say she didnât care at all.
Yvette felt distressed but didnât want others to know that.
She looked down and bit the straw. âCharlie, Iâm sorry. I donât want to talk about that.â
Charlie smiled gently. âYou donât have to if you donât want to. I just hope you can be as happy as before.â
âCharlie, Iâm sorry. I believe we should not meet again,â Yvette said.
Charlie didnât expect Yvette to say that. He almost dropped the coffee cup.
Charlie quickly calmed down and asked gently, âWhatâs wrong? Has he threatened you again?â
Yvette shook her head. âEvery time you meet me, youâll get injured. Itâs all because of me. I feel sorry for you. Therefore, it might be better if we donât meet.â
Yvette was simple. She didnât want her friends to be harmed.
Charlie also knew Yvette was innocent.
However, the more innocent Yvette was, the more Charlie wanted to ruin her.
His tone was gentle. âYvette, Iâm not afraid.â
Yvette shook her head. âIâm sorry, Charlie. Iâve decided. I really feel sorry for you. I canât hurt you anymore.â
Yvette had made up her mind. A hint of anger flashed in Charlieâs usually gentle eyes.
Charlie stopped badgering Yvette and looked down at her. âYvette, since you have made your decision, I accept it.)
âThank you for your understanding, Charlie. I wish you a bright future.â
Yvette was sincere.
âThank you. May I treat you to some desert for the last time?â
Charlie was frank. Yvette couldnât refuse him and nodded in agreement.
The restaurant in the private hospital was self-served. Charlie told Yvette to wait and stood up to get desserts.
After Charlie turned around, the tenderness in his eyes disappeared, and he turned gloomy.
He expressionlessly walked to the dessert section. After choosing the desert, he went to his seat from the other side.
When Charlie saw the tall man standing there, he was not surprised. He greeted politely and calmly, âMr. Wolseley, are you here to drink coffee too?â
Charlieâs tone was somewhat mocking.
After all, Charlie was drinking coffee with the wife of the man in front of him.
Lance stood straight, and his pants outlined his long legs. He looked at Charlie indifferently, âI have warned you not to approach my wife. Donât you remember?â
âYes, I do.â Charlie nodded with a smile.
Lanceâs eyes were cold.
Charlie and Yvette were intimate. Lance had seen that, so he wanted to cut Charlie into pieces.
However, Yvette did not like Lance being violent, so he could only restrain his anger.
âWhy donât you leave as soon as possible?â Lance said coldly.
âMr. Wolseley, I havenât left becauseâ¦â
Charlie paused. His ambition and desire were on his face.
âYvette is nice, and I like her very much.â
Hearing Charlieâs words, Lance narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth. âYou like her? Are you qualified to like.
her?â
Charlie smiled and said, âUnfortunately, Yvette wonât change her mind no matter what you will do.â
Lanceâs brain was in buzz, and he almost lost his temper.
He thought Charlie and Yvette were talking about him.
Lance clenched his fists and was about to hit Charlie, but he stopped..
He realized Charlie was provoking him.
Lance raised his chin and sneered, âWe are husband and wife. Yvette is my wife.â
Lance tried to contain his anger. Seeing that, Charlie knew he should add more fuel, so he mocked in a low voice, âMr. Wolseley, isnât it more exciting to stay with someone elseâs wife?â
Boom.
Lanceâs fist smashed Charlie hard.
Charlie got a nosebleed. He covered his face with his hand and kept being decent.
Lanceâs anger had been ignited, and he turned mad. He lifted his foot and kicked.
âStop.â
Yvette ran over and opened her arms to block Lance.
âLance, what are you doing?â
Yvette tried to protect Charlie. Seeing that, Lance narrowed his eyes and felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He sneered, âWhy? Have I come at the wrong time and disturbed you?â
âNonsense!â Yvette shouted at Lance.
She felt distressed.
Seeing Yvette protecting Charlie, Lance was no longer calm. His words turned hurtful.
âYou are so shameless.â
Yvetteâs face turned pale, and she could hardly breathe..
She was exhausted, disappointed, and numb. All kinds of emotions intertwined, which made her tired.
Yvette had been disappointed. Could she be more disappointed?
No, she couldnât.
Yvette turned to help Charlie up and said, âLetâs go to treat your wound.â
âStop!â
Lance was at a high pitch of indignation. He went forward to hold Yvetteâs hand but was blocked by Charlie.
Charlie looked at Lance and said toughly, âMr. Wolseley, do you want to hit a woman?â
Charlieâs glasses were knocked off, and he was no longer gentle. He looked at Lance meaningfully, and his strong arm was between Lance and Yvette.
Obliviously, it was a provocation.
Without a word, Lance punched Charlie, and Charlie fell to the ground.
Lance couldnât vent his anger and jealousy with a single punch. Blue veins stood out the back of his hands, and he rushed to Charlie again.
âLance, Yvette cried out and rushed over to push him.
It seemed Lanceâs fist could not stop. Seeing that, Yvette closed her eyes to meet the terrifying rage.
However, she didnât feel the expected pain.
Yvette opened her eyes and saw Lanceâs fist right in front of her eyes. Lance stopped.
Lanceâs face turned cold. How could he hit Yvette?
He fixed his eyes on Yvetteâs face. âAre you protecting him?â he asked.
