Chapter 191
As the car came to a halt before her, Patricia instantly felt that her burden would be lifted soon.
However, as soon as she heard the man's voice, she was taken aback.
Why is it him again? Should I get into his car? It was just moments ago when she had lied to the man.
If Isaac knew that he was going to allegedly jump off the building, was he going to strangle her when he
knew about her claim?
As she hesitated, the driver alighted from the car and helped her to grab hold of Isaac. "Ma'am, I won't
charge you for sending you home."
The driver was nosy and he had parked his car by the sidewalk to check whether she had successfully
rescued her husband.
After all, he had offered her help earlier, so if she succeeded in saving Isaac, that must mean he did a
good deed as well.
At this point, Patricia could not find it within herself to reject the man upon noticing his eagerness to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthelp. Hence, she helped Isaac into the car and smiled awkwardly. "Thank you, sir."
Both of them entered the car as the driver helped her shut the door.
Then, the driver hopped into his seat in good spirits and the car merged into the traffic.
Meanwhile, Isaac leaned against Patricia and took her into his arms by wrapping her with one hand.
With the act still ongoing, he pretended to be drunk as he lowered his eyelids.
The driver took a peek at them from the rearview mirror and thought, What a good-looking couple they
are. They must be a perfect match, but why did he attempt to leap off a building? Did they get into a
fight?
He persistently stole a peek before voicing out, "Hey, Ma'am. Did you get into a fight with your
husband?"
He persistently stole a peek before voicing out, "Hey, Ma'am. Did you get into a fight with your
husband?"
As soon as Patricia heard him talk, she tried to signal to him with her eyes but he did not notice it. He
continued as he drove, "Hey man, I know how you feel, but we as men should always be the bigger
person when it comes to a fight. All she needs is a little coaxing and apologizing. Getting drunk and
attempting suicide are definitely not the way, man."
At that point, she was at a total loss for words. Sh*t. You're not helping me…
"Hank, has that man jumped off the building? I thought you were keeping an eye below?" It was then
that another person's voice rang out from the walkie-talkie of the driver.
Patricia hurriedly covered Isaac's ears to stop him from hearing the conversation as she thought,
Please be asleep. Please, please, please…
As for Isaac, he initially wanted to take a quick nap. As soon as she covered his ears with her cold
hands, he was awakened instantly. His ears were his sensitive spot and to him, her actions indicated
intimacy.
The driver responded to his walkie-talkie, "Don't worry, guys. The lady's husband didn't end up jumping.
They're in my car right now and I'll send them back home safely. Don't worry."
"That's great!"
"Tell that young man that life is still full of hope."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes. There will always be a silver lining."
Naturally, Isaac heard all of their words. Oh, so she wasn't actually caressing me… She was just
preventing me from hearing the conversation. Does she know the driver? She must have told the guy
when she caught a ride here that her husband was about to leap off a building.
As soon as he thought of that, he could not contain the smile on his face. He liked the term 'husband',
but was frowning at the suicide description. At that moment, he had an idea as a wicked smile widened
on his face.
On the other hand, Patricia was panicking. Gosh. Why are these people chatting incessantly? If Isaac
was roused by their voices and heard her lies, then he was surely going to kill her. As such, she piped
up, "Sir, we'll pay for the fare. Could you concentrate on the road and stop chatting?"
Subsequently, Hank hastily spoke into his walkie-talkie, "That's enough chit-chat. I'm driving."
She lowered her eyes and glanced at the man leaning against her chest. He had his eyes shut and his
long eyelashes were tempting to touch. He also had a pointed nose which helped his side profile to
look prominent and handsome all the time.
She had originally intended to check if he was asleep, but somehow, she became deeply entranced by
his looks.
"Don't worry, Ma'am. I'm a seasoned driver and I'll definitely send you back home safely," stated Hank.
