CHAPTER 128 - HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE ON WeChat?

After hearing what Yvette Jordan said, Chuck Cannon shook his head awkwardly. He was really just worried about Queenie Carson.

After all, something like that happened to them last night...

Chuck felt guilty and sighed. He didn't know how to deal with Queenie. Looking at Yvette's eyes, Chuck made up his mind that he would never do anything to make Yvette sad anymore.

'It's not easy for Yvette to change her impression of me. I can't let her down anymore.' He thought.

"Are you going to school?" Yvette asked.

The examinations are just around the corner. Of course, Chuck had to go to school.

Chuck secretly sent a text message to Queenie as Yvette was driving. He asked her to tell him if she needed money. Queenie replied to him with a short 'okay'.

However, Chuck was still worried. Therefore, he sent a text message to Betty and asked her to find out what happened to Queenie's family. Betty replied to him, "Noted, Young Master."

Upon seeing the text message, Chuck breathed a sigh of relief.

Yvette parked the car when she arrived at the school. Chuck did not disturb Yvette because she seemed to be in a gloomy mood. She even seemed to forget that Chuck was still in the car.

Out of curiosity, Chuck saw that Yvette was opening her conversation thread with the Local Tyrant on WhatsApp. She seemed to be thinking about how to discuss the loan with the Local Tyrant.

Chuck suddenly remembered Yvette promised the Local Tyrant that she would pay him back the money within ten days. Was Yvette worrying about the money?

It should not be possible. Yvette did not spend a lot of money in Central City, right?

Chuck felt helpless. He thought, 'Yvette, you don't have to pay 500,000 dollars back if you call me hubby.'

"I'll get off the car now, Wife' Chuck said.

"Okay. You should go to the classroom first. Don't run around. Do you understand?" Yvette said. Then, she sighed and put her phone away.

The necklace cost her more than 400,000 dollars. She didn't have so much money at the moment. However, she didn't want to postpone paying back the money either. After all, credibility was very important.

Chuck opened the door and got out of the car. Then, he stood beside the driver's seat and asked, "Wifey, why are you unhappy? Did something happen?"

"Nope. Please go back to the classroom first." Yvette shook her head and said.

Chuck had no choice but to go to the classroom.

Chuck's mobile phone rang when he was on the way to the classroom. He saw Yvette's text message in WhatsApp when he looked at his mobile phone. Yvette informed him that she would pay back the money before the deadline.

It seemed that Yvette was really worrying about how to pay back the money. Chuck replied to her immediately, "It's okay."

However, Yvette replied to him, "I must keep my promise, So, I'll pay back the money to you before the deadline."

Chuck was speechless. He ignored her text message.

Chuck saw Lara Jean distributing leaflets when he arrived in the classroom. She was starting her business tomorrow. She hoped everyone would support her. Also, she would not charge her classmates for the milkshakes in her store as long as her classmates shared her business page on their Facebook account and collected some 'likes' and 'shares'.

Lara became famous after singing in the plaza last time. Now, everyone became even more envious of Lara as she was distributing her fliers. They praised her that she was her own boss now. They even asked her to treat them to dinner if she made money from her business.

Lara promised them confidently. She was in a good mood when everyone was complimenting her. However, she snorted and walked over when she saw Chuck entering the classroom.

"Well, I'm going to share some good deals with you. Log into your Facebook and scan this QR code. You'll get a free milkshake if you successfully collected ten 'likes'." Lara said and handed a flyer to Chuck.

Chuck shook his head. He was afraid that Lara would find out that he was the Local Tyrant if he switched on his phone in front of Lara.

"Please give it to someone else," Chuck said.

"Are you out of your mind? Why won't you want free milkshakes?" Lara was angry because she thought Chuck was trying to humiliate her. Chuck frowned.

"Perhaps Chuck doesn't even have a Facebook account. He's not even in our group chat." One of his classmates said.

"Oh, really? I just noticed that. Wow! How could someone not have a Facebook account in this era?"

"Well, I bet he couldn't even collect ten 'likes' on his Facebook. He must have less than ten friends on his Facebook account.

"Haha! I think so too. He didn't even add us as friends on his Facebook. Where would he find enough people?

Chuck's classmates were talking behind him. They had never seen Chuck's Facebook account before.

"Do you really not have even ten friends on your Facebook?" Lara asked in disdain. 'Is this why you didn't want to open your phone and scan the QR code?' She thought.

Chuck ignored her and walked directly to his seat. Lara snorted and walked towards Chuck. "Hey! Log into your Facebook account now. Let's see how many friends you have. I'll give you 50 dollars if you show us your account, deal?"

"Haha! That's a good idea. Let's place our bets. I guess there are at most ten friends on his Facebook." One of his classmates said.

"I guess seven!"

"Five!"

"One."

"Haha! One? Is that person, himself? Everyone burst into laughter. They looked at Chuck sarcastically

"Do you not dare to even show us your phone?" Lara sneered. She really didn't like Chuck. She felt that she wouldn't be beaten last time if it wasn't because of him.

"Well, I'll give you one hundred dollars. Show us your account now," Lara continued.

Chuck ignored her and sat down. The class was about to begin.

Lara looked at him in disdain.

"Haha! You don't even dare to do that. How shameful is that?" The other classmates said.

"Yeah! Isn't it embarrassing to have only a few friends on Facebook?"

Chuck's classmates continued to sneer at Chuck. How could they let go of such a good opportunity?

Lara complacently handed the flyer to other classmates and said, "Ah, some people are really shameful. They can't even collect ten 'likes'... How could there be such a loser?"

Yvette came in at this time. Lara handed the flyer to Yvette and said, "Teacher, my store will be opened tomorrow. Please help me to scan the QR code and collect ten 'likes' to redeem a free milkshake."

"Sure." Yvette took out her mobile phone and scanned the QR code quickly. This was what the students were waiting for. In the end, Yvette collected more than 100 likes almost immediately.

Lara smiled and said, "Teacher, you're really fast at collecting 'likes'. Ah, some people don't even dare to open their Facebook in front of us. Is he embarrassed about his own Facebook account?"

"Who are you referring to?" Yvette was surprised.

"I'm referring to Chuck. I just offered a hundred dollars to ask him to show us his Facebook account. But, he did not even dare to do so. Well, I guess he doesn't have any friends on his Facebook." Lara said with a smile.

Yvette frowned and took a glance at Chuck, who was sitting in the corner. "Why do you want to know how many friends he has on Facebook? What does it have to do with you?" Yvette scolded.

"Teacher..." Lara did not know what to say. She felt embarrassed. Why Yvette, who had always been treating Chuck badly, would put in a good word for Chuck?

Everyone else was surprised as well. They were even more envious of Chuck. What was going on? Yolanda Lane, who was the most beautiful student in the school, came to look for Chuck. Now, Yvette, who was the most beautiful teacher in the school, also put in a good word for him!

There was nothing good about Chuck. He was just a loser.

"It's time for class!" Yvette said in a serious tone.

Lara walked to her seat in disgrace. She snorted and stared at Chuck. He ignored her and took out his mobile phone. He sent a text message to Lara: Where are you?

Chuck saw Lara take out her mobile phone He almost laughed out loud when he saw Lara was happy to receive his text message.

Lara replied to him: Local Tyrant! Finally, you've replied to my text messages. I'm so happy! I'm in class now!

Chuck replied: Oh, you're in class. I see. Can you take a video of your class to let me have a look?

Lara replied: Okay.

Lara secretly took a video of the class and sent it to Chuck immediately. Chuck looked at the video and found out that Lara didn't feature him in the video. Well, did she really hate Chuck that much?

Chuck replied to her: Aren't there any handsome guys in your class?

Lara wouldn't tell Local Tyrant if there were any handsome guys in her class. She replied: Well, they're all losers. There are no handsome guys in my class at all.

She continued to send a text message, "Local Tyrant, where are you? Can I look for you now? I'm bored."

Lara missed Local Tyrant a lot. She felt as if she had lost her love when the 'Local Tyrant' ignored her in the past few days. She was really upset. She couldn't even sleep well at night. Finally, the Local Tyrant replied to her text message. She had to seize the opportunity.

Chuck typed: You don't have to look for me. I'm busy with my business. I'm planning to join more groups on Facebook to promote my business. Oh, can you please add me to the group chat of your class? The more people there are, the better... Chuck laughed as he was typing.

'I'll forward all your photos to the group chat the moment I'm in it! The photos are even taken from different angles. I'll see how boastful can you be then!' Chuck thought.

But...

"Teacher, I saw Chuck playing with his phone!" A student sneered and suddenly stood up to report to Yvette. He thought happily, 'Didn't Teacher Jordan just put a good word in you? Well, I'll let her hate you again!'

Chuck almost swore at the student. He turned off his mobile phone immediately.

Everyone was looking at him, including Yvette and Lara. Lara said sarcastically, "Hey, loser! Why are you playing with your mobile phone in class? Are you browsing that kind of website? You're so disgusting!"

Yvette frowned and looked at Chuck. He became nervous. He was afraid that she would find out that he was the Local Tyrant if she took his mobile phone away.
