You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1709: Overestimating Themselves

After leaving Christian's mansion, Joyce and Darrin raced back home. As they transitioned from the driveway to the expressway, Darrin suddenly straightened his body, pressing firmly against the seat, his expression tense. He glanced at the rearview mirror from time to time and checked the side mirrors.

"What's wrong? Is something off?" Joyce asked.

Darrin furrowed his brow. "I feel like ever since we turned at the intersection, there has been a black Range Rover following us. I actually noticed it on the side road under the expressway earlier, but I thought it was just my imagination. Now it seems otherwise."

Joyce also noticed the Range Rover; their driving pattern was indeed suspicious.

“Darrin, you truly are extraordinary. You're much more perceptive than the average person. I didn't even notice because the Range Rover was always two or three cars behind us, making it hard to spot,” Joyce praised.

Darrin suddenly swerved the steering wheel and switched to the fast lane.

"General, who do you think they might be? Did Christian send someone to track us? After all, we just left Christian's mansion, and being followed like this raises suspicions,” Darrin asked.

Joyce shook her head. "It's unlikely. Although the Ballard Group has been caught between two factions in the past, Christian has always been straightforward. If he had something to ask me, he would do so directly and not resort to this method.”

“Then who could it be? You've just returned to Khebury, so it's unlikely to be your previous enemies," Darrin pondered.

Joyce shook her head again. "I don't know. I didn't have many acquaintances in Khebury, and I can't imagine having any enemies." "Could they be targeting Mr. Warner?"

Darrin glanced at the rearview mirror. "Not good, they've caught up. They were trying to hide before, but now they're suddenly unrestrained.”

“It's probably because of the road we're on now. There are very few cars, and they can't easily blend in, so they decided to reveal themselves," Joyce analyzed.

Darrin nodded. He suddenly sharply turned the wheel and crossed two lanes.
