Chapter 47

Chapter 47 A New Start

Jean and Ben went to the parking lot. As the car door opened, a strong scent permeated Jean’s nose. It was a fruity perfume fragrance, one that would be used by young women. Jean blanked for a moment before entering the car.

“If she finds fault with you again, you can tell me right away. I’ll help you out.” Ben seemed peeved.

“It’s alright. I’ll just avoid her the next time.” Jean put on her seatbelt. They happened to be meeting up with Sonny for a discussion about the next competition and decided to go together.

Ben glanced at her. He opened his mouth to speak but hesitated.

With a foot on the accelerator, they headed west.

As they stopped at an intersection, a figure at the side of the road waved toward them.

It was a young teenage girl. She clutched a designer handbag. It was obvious that her family was well off. She kept staring at Ben.

Jean realized the situation.

When Jean called Ben, he came in a short time. He must have been nearby, plus he wouldn’t have gone to the shopping mall on his own.

“Should I just hail a taxi?” Jean asked.

Holding the steering wheel, he muttered, “It’s fine. It’s just some family stuff.”

Before Jean could speak, the girl was by their car.

Ben furrowed his eyebrows as he rolled down the car window. “This is the middle of the road. It’s dangerous.”

“I know. I just wanted to say hello. The driver will be here for me soon.”

She smiled brightly like the sun at midday and waved at Jean. “Jean, I hope you will all win again in the next competition. Good luck!”

She left smiling before Ben could reprimand her.

As the traffic light turned green, he frowned. “That little kid.”

Jean smiled wryly and shook her head. She looked out the window without any more words.
