Chapter 200

Tommy had always been an ignorant person. All he knew how to do was eat, drink, gamble, and play with women. Before, he had gotten into a fight over a woman and almost gone to prison. He only managed to escape imprisonment with Deborah's help. Deborah wasn't helping him out of kindness, rather she wanted to use Loraine. As expected, she did not let Deborah down.

Tommy did nothing all day. Loraine was worried that her son would go down the wrong path again so she asked Deborah to help him find a job.

It took Deborah a lot of time to find a job for Tommy. He was uneducated yet he picky with his work. He wanted an easy yet high paying job. Deborah successively found several jobs for him but he would always mess them up. In the end, she had no choice but to hire him as Steven's driver. Tommy had always been on the lower end of society. He was so happy when he heard from his mother that he had been hired to serve a high-end figure.

Although he was merely a driver, it was rare for an ordinary person to be in such close contact with a high-end figure. When people who knew Tommy heard that he was going to be Mr. Cook's driver, they all admired him and looked up to him. Due to that, Tommy felt arrogant and only then did he start to put in a lot of effort into doing his job well.

With Tommy's character, kissing up to someone was nothing new to him. Steven had a good impression of him due to his wits.

However, recently, Steven had started to dislike Tommy. The other day Director Lewis had come to talk to Steven about business. In their conversation, he brought up Tommy.

"Is Tommy Lewis your driver?"

"Yes. Why?" Steven asked. His intuition told him that Tommy must have done something to be under the police's radar.

"The other day, we held a raid and arrested quite a few prostitutes. One of the clients who frequented that place had the same name."

"What did you say?" Steven's expression changed. Although Tommy was just his driver, it would not be good for his reputation if word got out. People would assume that Steven himself was involved in those kinds of matters too.

"The police officers had wanted to arrest him, but he brought up your name and said that he was your driver. The officers checked and found that he was telling the truth. They didn't want to drag your name into the mud so they let him go. A couple days later, he was caught again in another nightclub with drugs. It's happened twice in a row so I thought I had better come give you a heads up. As they say, a leopard can never change its spots. If he really is your driver, you'd better be more cautious. Try not to be seen with him anymore and save yourself the trouble."

Steven nodded, "I see. Thank you for the heads up."

After Director Lewis left, Steven frowned. As the saying went, 'a rotten apple spoils the barrel', Tommy could not work under him anymore.
