Chapter 187
Eileen stared at Egbert in shock, never expecting him to say something like that.
Egbert glanced at her and seeing her stunned expression, he chuckled, raising an eyebrow, “Can I?”
Eileen quickly turned her head.
Looking out the window, she said, ‘Don’t try to trick me! I won’t fall for it!”
Egbert feigned confusion, “Tricked?”
Eileen almost lost control and blushed again!
She exclaimed, “I want to get out of the car!”
Realizing he might have pushed the joke too far and scared her off, Egbert hastened to soothe her, “Okay, I’ll stop now.”
Seeing him shut up, Eileen finally relaxed a bit.
Meanwhile, she quietly upgraded her assessment of Egbert in her mind.
What a sly guy, his words were full of temptation!
She needed to stay alert at all times, or she might easily fall into his trap!
After self-hypnotizing deep in her heart, Eileen gradually calmed down.
The rest of the journey was spent in silence.
But boy, that was a long ride.
The car slowly moved from the city center to the suburbs.
Eileen had eaten too much for afternoon tea and accidentally spent the rest of the ride sleeping.
When she woke up again, the car was already parked outside a highway toll booth, waiting in line.
Looking at the cars ahead, Eileen asked groggily, “We’re not there yet?”
Egbert covered her with a blanket and whispered, “Almost there.”
Eileen mumbled, “Where the heck are you taking me? If you think you can ditch me somewhere and I won’t find my way back, you’re wrong. I can always find my way home…”
Egbert laughed, tapping her nose, “Are you a puppy?”
With her eyes closed, Eileen declared, “I’m a big tiger.”
