Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1728

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

Yvonne frowned, completely confused.

But Michelle held her hand, quietly signaling her to calm down.

Yvonne turned to her. “Mom, what does he mean by that?

“Why don’t I understand anything you’re talking about? Did you make some sort of deal with him?”

Her voice carried a helpless edge.

She was terrified that the very thing she feared most was happening right in front of her.

Seeing their daughter so frightened made both Charles and Michelle deeply uncomfortable.

And the more they thought about it, the more it felt as though handing her over to Edwin was no different from trading their daughter away for favor.

How could they possibly bear something like that?

But when neither of them answered, Yvonne panicked.

She gave Michelle a small push, her voice tightening.

“Mom, say something. Why aren’t you saying anything?”

She looked from one parent to the other, filled with helplessness.

“Did you promise him something? Why won’t you tell me anything? How long are you planning to hide this from me?”

In the end, Michelle couldn’t hold back anymore and spoke first. “We didn’t agree to anything. You’re back now, aren’t you?”

Charles let out a long sigh.

“Don’t overthink it. Your mother and I know what we’re doing.”

Yvonne collapsed onto the sofa, her voice trembling. “You know what you’re doing, but why don’t I? Everything you’re dealing with concerns me, yet you’re keeping me completely in the dark. How is that right?”

Hearing that, Michelle felt a sharp ache in her chest.

She turned her head away, unable to face her daughter.
