BXBX NOVEL Chapter 135 - 135: The ‘Driver’ Takes Her Home
The driver looked relieved, laughed, and said, “Young Madam is awake now. That’s great. I was worried about how to wake you up since it’s getting dark soon. ”
“By the way, I waited for you outside for a long time, and when you didn’t come out, I checked on you. I saw you sleeping on the couch and didn’t wake you up. I decided to turn off the stove by myself. Young Madam, I’m sorry.”
So it was Uncle Harper who turned off the stove, and she was just wondering. Her secret husband was still thousands of miles away in Country F, how could he possibly be back? Enna Clark, blushing, quickly waved her hands, “No, I
should be the one saying sorry. I think I drank a bit too much at noon and felt a bit dizzy, so I unintentionally fell asleep. Thankfully, Uncle Harper, you helped me turn off the stove in the kitchen, otherwise I would have caused a big problem.”
“Young Madam, don’t mention it, it’s what I should do.” He paused slightly, and looked troubled, “I may not be able to send Young Madam home later. I need to bring the Tomato Beef Brisket to the hospital, President just called to hurry me up.”
Enna Clark immediately replied, “It’s okay, I can go home by myself.”
“How can that work? This is a villa area, there’s not a single taxi. It would take at least an hour for Young Madam to walk to a place to call a taxi. It’s late now, and it’s not safe for a girl like Young Madam.”
Indeed, this is a well-known wealthy area in Capital City and taxis would never drive in. It is indeed inconvenient for her to walk back home, not because it’s not safe but mainly because it would take a long time. She could imagine Bobby’s raging face when she goes back home.
Enna Clark felt a bit embarassed, “Then… what should we do?”
The driver smilingly said, “Young Madam don’t worry, I just rang a friend, he happens to be free. I’ve already told him where Young Madam lives. Young Madam can take his ride home later.”
“Thank you for your trouble, Uncle Harper.” They were so considerate of her that Enna Clark truly felt grateful.
Uncle Harper’s eyes flickered, seeming to look embarrassed yet also guilty. He moved his mouth before switching last minute to say, “Young Madam, you should get your stuff ready. My friend is already waiting outside.”
Enna Clark really didn’t think so much, she picked up her handbag, checked her phone and found it had run out of battery and switched off automatically. Realising her phone would also be off when Bobby called, she rubbed her forehead feeling a headache. She packed her handbag in no time, said goodbye to the driver and left without any more ado.
Indeed, there was a silver Volkswagen parked outside.
She opened the passenger door, got inside and said, “Sorry to keep you waiting.
Please drive me to Grand Garden.”
” There was an awkward silence in the car.
Enna Clark found it strange that he didn’t say anything. The car had started and was on its way to Grand Garden…
Throughout the trip, the driver in the front didn’t say a word, and she felt too embarrassed to initiate the conversation. The atmosphere in the car was awkward, and to make it worse, her phone was out of battery, leaving her no way to distract herself from the awkwardness.
Enna Clark, feeling vexed, rolled down the window. The cool breeze blew in and she decided to look at the scenery outside…
Finally.
The car stopped outside of the housing estate. Enna Clark couldn’t wait to open the car door, bending over she thanked the person inside, then closed the door and hurried home.
Then, the window of the driver’s seat slowly rolled down revealing a devastatingly handsome face. With his unattainable nobility, who could it be if not Baron Lawrence?
He looked up at the 7th floor of the housing estate, his thin lips gradually forming into a straight line..
