Chapter 275: You Drive Me Crazy

"Brother-in-law, huh?" Mia commented with a frown.

"You didn’t give me a chance to call Steve Davis my brother-in-law, so I took my chance here," Cathy teased.

"Don’t spoil my mood by mentioning that jerk’s name," Mia warned. "Or I’ll throw you out of this car."

Cathy wisely kept quiet about it and said, "Didn’t you notice the kind of pressuring aura her husband had? The best way to melt such a man is to let him hear what he might like. After working in the corporate world, I’m kinda close to understanding such cold people."

"I can’t doubt you on that," Mia said. "I’ll drop you off at Natalie’s home."

"First, take me to the hotel to get my things, and then you can drop me at her home," Cathy said.

Mia hummed in agreement and turned her car towards the hotel Cathy was staying at. "You act like you are poorest person in this world, but you have enough money to stay in a luxury hotel."

"I work hard to earn so I can spend it on myself and live in luxury," Cathy countered.

Mia said nothing more. She dropped Cathy at the hotel, but as Cathy stepped out of the car, Mia smirked and said, "You can spend some of that money to hire a cab to Natalie’s," before driving off.

"Mia, you betrayer!" Cathy shouted, watching her friend leave. "Never mind."

She headed into the hotel, got her stuff, and checked out. Hiring a cab, she made her way to Natalie’s apartment.
