Leah did not know how to drive nor did she have any money with her. As a result, she had no choice but to walk back home. After a while of strolling along the street outside the hotel, a vehicle pulled up beside her. Her attention was drawn to the piercingly loud horn.

Leah frowned and approached the vehicle. She looked into the window and saw Han staring at her coldly. The man’s heart sank when he saw her in a dishevelled state. Her evening dress was creased and crumpled, with stains from the alcohol earlier. Her hair was straggling all over and her face was pale and blotchy. Han furrowed his brow and said coldly, “Get in.”

After a moment of hesitation, Leah shook her head and asked, “What do you want?”

“What do you think I can do to you?” Han scoffed and continued sarcastically, “Don’t think too highly of yourself, Leah.”

The woman bit her lip and vehemently protested, “You told me to stay far away from you, Han Howard. I’ll not board your vehicle.”

“I don’t like to repeat myself.” Han’s grip on the steering wheel tightened, clearly irritated by the woman’s hesitant demeanor. “Don’t test my limits,” he warned.

Leah knew that she could never argue against the man. No matter how reluctant she was, she had to obey Han’s instructions. After letting out a sigh, she pulled the backdoor open.

Just as Leah was preparing to enter the vehicle, Han slammed the backdoor close and ordered harshly, “Sit in the front.” The woman had no choice but to scuttle into the passenger seat obediently.

Once Leah fastened her seatbelt, Han slammed on the accelerator and the car took off in the speed of light. Frightened by the high speed, she grabbed on the handle as tightly as she could. Though her face was as pale as sheet, she tried her best to maintain her composure and avoided screaming.

Leah could no longer tolerate the high speed because it made her stomach queasy and nearly caused her to vomit. She screamed at the top of her lungs, “What are you doing, Han Howard!”
