I Met The Female CEO While Escaping A Blind Date-Chapter 18

Even though William Scott had an impressively calm state of mind, his jaw almost dropped when he heard his mother’s words.

What was going on? When she told him the other day that Yvette Quinn was his girlfriend, she didn’t believe it at all. Why was she bragging about it now?

Then, he quickly understood what his mother meant. She was clearly annoyed by his uncle’s family. They kept repeating that Lydia Connor was in the middle management of Lin Feng Corporation and making a big deal out of it. Meanwhile, the CEO was her future daughter-in-law. She would see how they could still feel superior.

But wasn’t Mom afraid of being exposed? Wouldn’t that be extremely awkward?

His mother was someone who cared so much about her face. This made William Scott feel a little amused. However, he would indulge her no matter what flaws she had.

“Did my parents say anything else to you?” Yvette Quinn went straight to the point.

“They mainly wanted me to give in to you more and forgive you more so that the two of us can get along well together. Also… they told me to be bolder at the right time.” William Scott summarized the old couple’s intentions very simply.

Yvette Quinn was silent for a few seconds before saying, “I understand, but you don’t have to worry.”

William Scott wanted to say, “You should be the one worrying, not me, right?” But he didn’t say it out loud.

“Alright, call me if you need anything. Goodbye.” After saying that, she hung up the phone.

William Scott rushed to the living room. He had to support his mother, or she would lose face.

“William, your mom said that Yvette Quinn from Lin Feng Corporation is your girlfriend?” His aunt looked at him strangely.

William Scott glanced at his mother, who was already straightening her neck. There was a guilty look in his eyes as he grinned. “Yes.”

......

“That’s ridiculous. Do you know who Yvette Quinn is? She’s the CEO of a company with hundreds of millions of yuan in assets. Not only is she very capable, but she’s also very pretty. How could she be your girlfriend?” Bernard Scott was the first to voice his doubts.

Lydia Connor frowned and said, “CEO Qiao has always been single. If she has a boyfriend, the middle management of our company should know something. But there is no news at all.”

William Scott chuckled and said, “We’ve only just gotten together, and I’ve never gone to the office to look for her. It’s normal that you guys don’t know.”

His aunt rolled her eyes and said unhappily, “Stop bullshitting. Who are you? And who is Yvette Quinn? The two of you are two different people from different worlds. Even if you have the chance to get to know her, she won’t like you. Tell me, what do you have? Are you handsome? Do you have money? Do you have a good background? You don’t have anything. Is Yvette Quinn blind? Is that why she likes you?”

Her words were really merciless. Most importantly, she said it so confidently, as if she was completely right.

Janna Sands’ face turned red. “What do you guys know? This is called love at first sight. Yvette Quinn is rich and pretty, that’s why she doesn’t need those things. What she needs is someone she has eyes for. She has eyes for William, so they got together. William, don’t you think so?”

William Scott looked at his mother’s meaningful gaze and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. His mother clearly didn’t believe him either. She just wanted him to cover up the lie. He immediately nodded seriously and said, “Mom is right. It’s actually like that.”

His aunt and her family looked at one another. The four of them had a look of disbelief in their eyes.

Big Aunt shook her head and said, “Alright, alright. We’ll believe you. I say, Janna, it’s been so many years. Your personality… hasn’t changed at all. You just want to save face and suffer after that. You can save your face in front of others. But with our relationship, do you really need to do that?”

Janna Sands secretly regretted boasting like this, but this was her personality. She straightened her neck and said, “If you don’t believe me, then forget it.”

“Alright, alright, we believe you. You two, I really didn’t expect William to have inherited this bad habit of yours.” His uncle looked as if he expected better from William. Then, he said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. In another half a month, Mother’s 80th birthday is coming up. Let’s discuss how we should settle it.”

Janna Sands did not want to talk about this matter anymore. She said, “I don’t have any ideas either. I don’t know if William’s father will be able to make it back. You can make the decision.”

His uncle said, “I think the 80th birthday celebration is a joyous occasion. We’ll invite all of our immediate relatives over. We won’t accept any gifts. We’ll just let everyone come and have some fun so that our mother can have some peace of mind.” 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

His aunt added, “As for the expenses, you don’t have to worry. Our Bernard has a high income and will be in charge of it.”

Janna Sands immediately said, “How can we do it this way? This is Mother’s 80th birthday. Bernard is her grandson, and so is William. Let the two of them handle it together. We should share it.”

His aunt frowned and said, “I was just thinking that William doesn’t have a girlfriend yet and doesn’t have a job. He’ll be burdened in the future. That’s why I’m helping you out. Why are you treating our kindness as ill intent?”

Janna Sands immediately said, “I’ve already said that William’s girlfriend is Yvette Quinn. With such a big CEO as his girlfriend, how could our William lack that bit of money? You guys don’t have to be so polite. We’re only family.”

“You…” His aunt was really a little angry. “Yvette Quinn, Yvette Quinn, I think you’re possessed. If William really has that ability, then bring Yvette Quinn over to celebrate Grandma’s birthday. Grandma will definitely be the happiest.”

Lydia Connor also said in an unpleasant tone, “William is amazing then. In the future when I’m in the company, I need William to put in a good word for me in front of CEO Qiao.”

Bernard Scott even said in a weird tone, “That’s right, William. Whether your cousin-in-law can improve further depends on you.”

“This… is nothing. William, you have to bring Yushan with you.” Janna Sands promised confidently.

His uncle’s family was stunned. Janna Sands sounded so confident. Was Yvette Quinn really William Scott’s girlfriend?

The corners of William Scott’s mouth could not help but curl up as he almost burst out laughing. However, he forced himself to endure it and nodded repeatedly. “No problem. It’s Grandmother’s birthday, so it’s only right for her to go over.”

Janna Sands slapped his thigh and said, “Alright, then it’s settled.”𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
