Forbidden Passion

Chapter 667 Mr. Reynolds' Card

The car pulled up outside the hotel, and Guadalupe spotted Phoebe and Theodore stepping out. He hopped out to open the back door. Theodore bent down to get in, but just as he was about to slide over, the door shut.

He glanced at the window and saw Phoebe leaning in a bit, saying, "Mr. Reynolds, my place isn't far. I can walk."

Theodore's fingers twitched at his side. He stared at Phoebe and let out a cold laugh, "Ms. Ziegler, you think I'm worse than a virus, huh?" Phoebe pressed her lips together and said, "Mr. Reynolds, don't be so hard on yourself. Guadalupe, make sure Mr. Reynolds gets home safe." "Yes, ma'am!" Guadalupe quickly got back in the car.

Theodore watched Phoebe's slim figure standing outside. Anger and anxiety churned inside him, making him want to break everything. But seeing Phoebe's indifferent look, he deflated like a popped balloon, feeling all dejected and helpless.

Phoebe watched the black sedan disappear before she turned to walk home.

Theodore leaned back in his seat, the streetlights casting shadows inside. He caught a faint whiff of Phoebe's scent lingering in the car.

He half-closed his eyes and looked at the driver, "You're Guadalupe, right?"

Guadalupe nodded quickly, "Yes, Mr. Reynolds."

Theodore's gaze made Guadalupe squirm. He stammered, "Mr. Reynolds, please don't look at me like that. It's kinda scary."

Theodore chuckled, "How long have you been driving for Phoebe?"

"I've been with Superstar Entertainment for almost a year. I used to drive for Noah. After Ms. Ziegler came back, I got assigned to her, so it's been just over a month." Guadalupe started to relax and chat with Theodore. Theodore turned to look out the window, the streetlights flickering across his face, "What's Ms. Ziegler like?"

"Ms. Ziegler is really nice, soft-hearted, and considerate. A lot of folks at the company like her." Talking about Phoebe, Guadalupe loosened up, the earlier tension gone.
