Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1365 My Goddess

"I don't need your guarantee. One more word, and you will train a month with them!" Wesley ordered.

Erica didn't say anything at first, but after a while, she replied, "Okay. As long as it makes you happy, Dad, I'll go."

"Don't try to fool me. You'll go tomorrow!"

"Okay!" Erica nodded helplessly.

For nearly an hour, she knelt on the living room floor. When Remus and Yvette came over, they found her still on her knees. Both tried to put in a good word for Erica, but Wesley didn't buy it.

After two hours, Wesley still wouldn't let Erica stand up. Feeling sorry for her sister, Yvette secretly sent a message to Matthew on WeChat. "Matthew, Dad ordered Erica to stay on her knees on the floor, but she's been there for hours now."

It took two minutes after that for Wesley's phone to ring.

When he looked at the caller ID, he didn't pick up the phone immediately. Instead, he looked around the living room. Erica and Tessie didn't have their cellphones, so it couldn't have been them who informed Matthew. As for Remus, he had been answering a call beside him the whole time he was there, and Blair had been playing games with Hugo upstairs.

However, he had no idea where Yvette was.

"Yvette!" he shouted.

"Just a minute, Dad!" Yvette's voice came from the bathroom.

After she washed her hands, Yvette showed up in the living room. "Dad, your phone has been ringing. Why aren't you answering it?" she asked.

Wesley squinted at her. "You called Matthew?"

Erica's eyes lit up once she realized Matthew was the one calling. Now she knew she was going to be saved.

She couldn't help but remember that a long time ago when Blair had wanted to beat her, it was Matthew who came to her rescue. Now it shouldn't be any different.

"I didn't," Yvette answered. It wasn't a lie since she didn't really call him.

"Did you send him a message?"

Wesley asked again. 'Oh, Dad is so clever!' Looking into her father's stern eyes, Yvette reluctantly nodded.

Wesley glared at her before he walked away from the room to answer Matthew's call. This way, he wouldn't be able to hear anything Erica might say from this side of the line.

"Matthew, what's wrong?" Wesley asked.

"Dad, are you busy now?"

"No. I'm playing with Hugo. Aren't you busy?" Both father-in-law and son-in-law were beating around the bush.

But M

ford nodded, "Yes, you passed the training."

Harry Zhang was even more confused after hearing that. "Then why are we being punished into cleaning the bathroom?"

Gifford looked back at him and asked, "Do you really want to know why?"

Harry Zhang nodded.

"I'll tell you after you clean the bathroom for a month. Oh! And don't forget you also have to clean the offices on the third floor!" Gifford patted him on the shoulder before he turned around and left.

Harry Zhang stood there, dumbfounded.

Later, at dinner, all the Li family members gathered around the table except for Gifford and Chantel.

It felt like ages since Erica had such a nourishing meal. She was so excited that she ended up eating two bowls of rice.

After everyone finished their meal, Tessie helped the maid clean the table. Erica was playing with Hugo when someone opened the villa's door from the outside.

A woman came in, wearing a black bucket hat and a long light blue coat over a white lace dress. Her black high-heeled shoes clicked on the floor as she waltzed in.

From her simple yet fashionable clothes, it became evident that she had undergone a tremendous change from the girl who had come to the Li family a few years ago to the woman she was now.

With her designer handbag in one hand, she held many gift bags in the other.

As soon as she took off her sunglasses, Hugo ran to her excitedly. "Mommy, Mommy!"

"Chantel is back!" Walking up to her with a big smile on her face, Blair seemed even happier to see Chantel now than she was when she saw Erica.
