He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 338

"Like mother, like daughter! Yardley, you have to do something! I'm so scared something terrible is going to happen to Aunt Corinne!"

Sylvia screamed viciously into the phone.

Yardley pressed his lips into a thin, hard line, his eyes burning with a terrifying rage.

As a son, if he couldn't even protect his own mother, he didn't deserve to be a man!

Fueled by pure adrenaline and fury, he hung up and immediately dialed Scarlett's number.

Scarlett was speeding toward the police station. She glanced at the screen and completely ignored the call.

After three failed attempts, Yardley dialed Jacqueline's number instead.

As soon as Jacqueline picked up, Yardley's dark, furious voice roared through the speaker:

"Mom! I heard you took my mother?!"

"Why would you do that? If you have an issue, why can't we just talk about it reasonably?"

Jacqueline still had a death grip on Corinne's hair. Corinne's face had turned a sickly shade of blue from the pain.

She had never been manhandled like this in her life. Traumatized into shock like a frightened rabbit, she covered her mouth, wanting to cry but terrified to make a sound.

Hearing Yardley's voice, Corinne realized her savior had arrived and instantly shrieked:

"Son! Help me!"

"They're taking me to the police station! They want to put me in jail! Son! I don't want to go to jail!"

"It hurts so much! Ahhh! This crazy bitch is ripping my scalp off!"

*Smack!*

Unable to tolerate the screeching any longer, Jacqueline delivered a vicious, open-handed slap straight across Corinne's face.

Her fierce, commanding aura—the presence of a hardened businesswoman—flared up. Corinne instantly clamped her mouth shut, utterly terrified to make even a whimper.

"Mom! Are you okay?!"

"Mom!! What's happening?!"
