Chapter 530 Daphne’s Crush

“The car behind us?” Charles was alerted upon hearing Sonia’s words, looking at the rear mirror on his left. As soon as his eyes fell upon the mirror, he saw a black car of a Japanese brand tailing them. Despite its ordinary-looking appearance, it was tailgating them so closely that it was hard not to think it was following them.

“You’re right.” Charles knitted his eyebrows.

Sonia sternly said, “This car seems to have been following us ever since we left Bayside Residence.”

“Really?” Charles was seen with a preoccupied look on his face.

Sonia nodded. “Yes, I noticed it when I looked in the rear mirror. After all, how can I forget a peculiar-looking license plate like that so easily?”

“A peculiar-looking license plate?” Charles raised his eyebrows and looked in the rear mirror once more. When he saw the two digits that read ‘13’, he couldn’t help but snigger. “Damn! That’s peculiar indeed!”

“Exactly! That’s why that car stays in my mind the moment I see it, but I didn’t pay much attention to it because I thought it was just some random car behind us until I realized this car was still tailing us now. Therefore, judging from how closely it is following us, I’m worried that someone could be onto us,” Sonia pursed her lips and said in a serious voice.

“Call the cops!” Charles held the steering tightly. “Call the cops and tell them about our situation. Then, sit tight and grab the handle above your head because I’m about to drive like Mario Andretti and lose that stalker.”

Unaware of the mysterious driver’s intention, both Charles and Sonia decided to take extra precautions and assumed they were in the worst-case scenario. After all, they were afraid that the driver could do something unexpectedly crazy like ramming their car, so the best way to avoid that was to lose their stalker first.

Needless to say, Sonia felt the same way as Charles did, so she nodded and said, “Alright, drive safe.” She then grabbed the handle above her head and reached for her phone with her other hand to contact the police. Nonetheless, just when she just found Teddy’s number, she suddenly saw the car behind them gaining on them in the rear mirror. Seconds later, it appeared just right in front of them as Sonia tried to stop Charles from overtaking it. “Wait, Charles!”
