Chapter 46 As soon as that voice emerged , Elis stomach churned with unease .

His grip on the phone tightened , his tone dropping into something sharp and demanding Noelle , who was that speaking just now ? Uh the driver , Noelle answered honestly , her voice tinged with her usual breeziness .

The driver ? Elis frown deepened No ordinary driver would address her as Miss Anderson A troubling thought passed through his mind , and his voice dropped another octave .

Whose driver ? Dont tell me it a Nicolays It is Noelle chirped , completely oblivious to the storm brewing on the other end .

Noelle quickly pulled the phone away , holding it at arms length to shield her ears She sighed inwardly .

Sure enough , the mere mention of Nick was enough to set Eli off like fireworks on New Years Eve .

But she didnt feel the need to hide anything why should she ? She hadnt done anything wrong .

You stay right there at the school gate .

Eli barked , trying to rein in his frustration .

Im coming to get you ! But then he realized Noelle really had a way of making his blood boil with a single sentence .

To avoid another fight , Eli could only suppress his anger , planning to lecture Noelle properly when he saw her .

Uh … Noelle hesitated , glancing out the car window , But Im already in the car , and were pretty far from school now .

What ? Elis voice escalated to a near shout .

Youre telling me you were getting in the car this whole time ! Eli , I think you have a bit of a temper ! Are you u angry ? Ill bring you back some honey later to cool you down .

Who needs you to cool me down ? with anger .
