Chapter 592 - Either Jeremy or the driver (2/2)

”Let's go. I need to take a shower before I leave for the show,” she stood up. As he would bring her back, there was no point for them to stay in the office any longer.

”I'll get my key,” he said as he went to his table to open the top drawer and took the key. ”Let's go.”

They used the special elevator again to go down after Jeremy informed Jacob he was sending Ryn home.

He helped her with the safety belt before he started the engine. He drove the car once he was satisfied with the temperature and the music.

She crossed her arms and pursed her lips. She refused to look at him or she would get mad for this silly... Reason. She did not understand why was he so paranoid all of the sudden.

She is an ȧduŀt who is used to flying to so many countries alone to do her jobs. She could manage to do everything by herself.

But it seemed like he has forgotten that fact when he thought either he or his driver the only ones who could keep her safe.

But she was giving him a cold shoulder.

He did not like this at all. He would prefer her to scold him than treat him as if he was air.

”Fine. I'm sorry,” he said finally. He could no longer stand in this tense atmosphere.

She looked at him, ċȯċking an eyebrow.

”I'm worried about your safety, love. While crossing the road I have the thought what if you've been kidnapped by a kidnapper? Last time you're safe but my love, you don't have any martial art skill. You don't know how to fight. What if next time the kidnapper use a gun or hurt you? I can't lose you again,” he explained.

She frowned. He had that elaborate thought just when they were crossing the road? It did not take long for them from the restaurant to the office but he actually thought that much. Sigh. He should just become a drama writer or something with his silly idea.

”Ryn, can you understand my worry?” he asked.

”You're just being silly. After what happened last time, didn't I improve my method when I take a taxi? I always take a picture of the taxi, the plat and the driver's face and send them to Mei Li. If I didn't arrive on time, she will call me first and if she cannot be through me, all the photos will go straight to the police. So don't worry.”

”But I...”

She put a hand on his ŀȧp to calm him down. ”Don't worry. I always take care of my safety very seriously.”

He gripped the steering firmly. He understood her but at the same time, it was hard for him right now to let go of his worry.

”Even if one day we get married, I don't want you to think that I cannot drive a car myself and need a driver to bring me around. I am not that fragile. Even Mika can drive her car however she wants,” Ryn pointed out dryly.

He did not speak for a while. He did have the thought of ȧssigning a driver for her once their engagement was official. But with her already saying that, does this mean he has to cancel his plan?

She sank her upper teeth to her bottom lip, wondering how their conversation ended this way. Does this mean they're heading toward another quarrel over a silly reason... Again?

”You know what? I don't want to argue with you. Let's just agree to disagree. I'm taking a nap,” she said finally and quickly adjusted her seating so she could be more comfortable. Then, she closed her eyes.

It was better to sleep than to argue with him.

He glanced at her silently. He was not satisfied with the way she ended their conversation. It did not seem that they have reached any decision. But he could not do anything when she already sleeping.

He sighed heavily.
