Queen of Wild Cards novel Chapter 696

"What about my car?"

He hadn't even told her he was coming. What if she had stayed out late? Would he have just waited out here for hours?

"Don't worry. I already had a bodyguard drive it back."

"Alright, let's go." Ever since this man found out she was pregnant, he kept her on a very short leash.

...

The next day.

Mr. Warren pulled his investment from the Jeter family.

In his office, Byron Jeter hurled the files off his desk, smashing several mugs in the process.

"That useless Yvonne!"

He had sent her to win over Mr. Warren. After finally getting him to agree to the investment—with the funds practically in their grasp—the man suddenly pulled out.

Without that capital, the Jeter family was doomed.

Furious, he called his daughter, but she didn't answer, which only stoked his rage further.

He stormed out of the office and rushed straight home.

Upon arriving, he threw a massive tantrum.

"Darling, what's going on?" Catherine asked.

Hadn't Mr. Warren agreed to invest? Why was he so furious?

"He pulled the funding! How can I not be furious? Call Yvonne right now and tell her to get her ass back here!"

Hearing the news, Catherine didn't dare ask any more questions. She quickly dialed her daughter's number.

The phone rang for a long time before automatically disconnecting.

"Byron, she's not answering."
