Chapter 494

Lyman swept Effie up into his arms before she could even gasp. Instinctively, she threw her arms around his neck, clinging on as if she might fall.

A smirk played on Lyman's lips as he carried her to the car, setting her down gently in the back seat.

He reassured her, "Don't worry, this isn't the same car from earlier. She rode in that one. I'd never make you sit there."

Effie couldn't help but laugh. "You act like I'm that petty. So, what are you going to do with that car?"

He shrugged. "What do you think? Scrap it?"

She shook her head. "No way! It's perfectly fine. Scrapping it would be such a waste."

He raised an eyebrow. "Then what do you suggest?"

Effie grinned, thinking it over. "Well... maybe she should pay for a cleaning?"

Lyman flicked her forehead lightly. "You little troublemaker. Who's going to bring it up?"

She beamed at him. "Obviously you. You're the one who let her ride in your car— shouldn't you take care of it?"

He ruffled her hair, his tone indulgent. "Alright, I'll handle it."

"When?"

"Tomorrow."

"Okay."
