Chapter 598

“I’ll see you off.” As soon as Claire finished speaking, Arthur immediately said.

Claire exclaimed in confusion. “That’s not appropriate, Mr. Jarrett, you must be joking.

“No. Thank you.”

She said as she bent down to pick up her bag from the sofa. Glancing outside, she turned to leave. “I’ll go look for Mateo outside; he should be able to hear me if I call his name.”

With that, she turned and took a step. But just as she was about to take the second, a strong hand grabbed her right wrist, stopping her in her tracks.

The warmth from her wrist made Claire, who had stopped abruptly, let out an involuntary moan.

Arthur’s voice came at the same time. “I’ll take you home. It’s fine. Besides, Mateo’s probably asleep at this hour.”

Mateo, who was guarding his phone, waiting for Arthur to summon him at any moment to take Claire home, yawned repeatedly, looking sleepy.

“Why is it taking so long? It’s been almost three hours. They sure can talk, good for them. I’ll reward myself with another episode of the show. No rush, no rush,” he hummed to himself.

Half an hour later, after some discussion, Claire found herself getting into Arthur’s car to go home. It was a sedan that looked quite ordinary but had been heavily modified.

The mature and steady man in the driver’s seat focused on driving, while the beautiful woman in the passenger seat was engrossed in her phone, illuminated by its faint light.

Claire: [Cherise, I’m going to die. Arthur’s dad is taking me home. How could I possibly deserve this? It’s more like I’m his driver.]

Claire: [I said I didn’t want him to, but he insisted. He didn’t even bring a bodyguard. If something happens to him, will I be a sinner for ages?]

Claire: [Mom knows you’re asleep, but I still have to send this to you. At least I’ll have one more witness. You can testify for me that I didn’t volunteer for this. Arthur’s dad forced me to do it.]
