Chapter 195

Eileen was freaking out.

She stared at the ring she had casually slipped onto her thumb.

Eileen was so scared she could hardly move.

She just held her hand up like that, then turned her head, looking at Egbert with sheer terror, and asked in a stiff voice, “Are you messing with me?”

Egbert kept one hand on the wheel while using the other to reach over and press her hand down. He gently squeezed her fingertips and said, “Chill out.”

How could she possibly chill out?

This was 126 million dollars!

Eileen had forgotten to shake off Egbert’s hand.

But she was very suspicious, “Are you pulling my leg? How could anyone give such a gift to someone they just met? You’re definitely playing me, aren’t you?”

Egbert didn’t respond.

Eileen frowned, “Are you or are you not playing me?”

Egbert still didn’t respond.

Eileen was starting to get mad, she smacked Egbert’s hand hard with her other hand, and roared, “Tell me!”

Egbert looked at his hand that had been smacked red.

He knew she was really upset.

He could only say, “I’m not playing you, they really are loaded.”

Even if they were loaded, they couldn’t just spend money like that.

Eileen was genuinely terrified.

She said, “Drive back right now! Drive back immediately!”

But Egbert didn’t turn back.

Eileen shouted loudly, “Go back! I have to return this to them! They must’ve made a mistake!”

After a while, the car stopped. The traffic lights in front of them were changing, and pedestrians were passing by.

As they paused, Egbert looked at Eileen from the corner of his eye.

His deep gaze was meant to be comforting. He said softly, “You don’t have to.

Eileen said, “How can I not? I can’t accept such an unexpected gift…”
