Chapter 11
Chapter 11 The day was slowly turning dark. Jack’s expression changed slightly as the anger in him seethed. He gave them a cold gaze. “Get lost!” His voice was chilly and impatient. There was a great look of relief on the men’s faces. In the next second, they were fumbling back into the car and driving off as fast as they could! Violet was stunned and perplexed. She turned to look at him abruptly. Was he letting them go just like that? Was he not going to figure out the instigator behind the attack? All she could see were Jack’s dark and deep eyes. It was difficult to fathom what he was feeling. The gradually receding light from the sunset shone upon his tall body, as though bathing him in a soft, holy glow. Violet was momentarily lost. He was too handsome! Jack rubbed his fists. There was a fierce look in his eyes. He had a lapse of judgment today. As the sunset was about to lose its light, Jack heaved an inward sigh and asked, in a low voice, “Do you know how to drive?” “Oh?” Violet came back to her senses. She looked around the area. “Are you asking me?” “Who else would I be asking?” Jack frowned slightly. Obviously displeased, Violet raised her eyebrows. What was this attitude that he was giving to her?! She did not respond. Jack turned his gaze upon her which was as sharp as a blade. “Don’t you wish to see your mother?” His voice was full of threat.
Violet had nothing else to say. Impatiently, she answered, “Yes, I can drive.” Those words had barely left her lips when Jack’s vision suddenly turned pitch black. He could not see anything before him, and he felt as though he had fallen into a deep abyss because of how dark it was. He turned around and, thanks to the ability he had honed for many years, calmly made his way to the passenger seat.
Through the darkness, he opened the door to the car and sat inside. There was no expression on his face but he definitely felt terrible. The company had kept him busy today. He had driven as fast as he could to fetch her from the villa, but the traffic jam had delayed him. Furthermore, those scu mbags had blocked his way and wasted even more time! He had to get back quickly, before the sunset! He was going to be exposed. Violet was befuddled. Did he not know how to drive? He was not injured, after all! Why was he asking her to drive?! However, she could only cooperate. Her mother was still within his control. When she got into the car, she could see a dispirited coldness of a cri pple in his black eyes. She gave him another look. There was something weird about him. “Drive!” Jack said quietly. His voice was cold and distant. Violet tore her gaze from him. She buckled the safety belt and started the engine. “Where to? Have you eaten?” She was hungry. His grandfather had asked him to bring her for a meal. “Go straight and turn left,” said Jack softly. Violet did as he asked. She still felt suspicious. Why did he ask her to drive? This was a Maserati. It was expensive even if it was not a custom car. What would happen if she accidentally knocked into something? His life was so precious. Was he not worried that she would destroy him by getting into a car crash? Night had completely fallen. The skies were in shades of dark blue. She could see the road before them even without the headlights turned on. The visibility at this time of the evening was excellent. The view was beautiful, but Violet was in no mood to appreciate it. She had a sense of foreboding. 1/2 11:51 Chapter 11 The car turned left. She was not driving fast. “And then? Where do I go?” asked Violet. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“Go straight for another 500 yards.” She did as he asked once more. It was only after she had driven for about 200 yards that she discovered they were in a high-end area of villas. Were they going to his house? Could her mother be at his house? Violet glanced at him as she drove. “Where do you live?” Jack was calculating the time while estimating the speed of the car. Then, he replied in a calm and cool tone. “We’re almost there. The gates will open automatically when the car is near.” He had just spoken when the gates to a mansion roughly 100 yards in front of them slowly opened up. The car began to slow down before turning a corner, entering the courtyard seamlessly. The courtyard was vast, and the architecture within was very unique. The white Maserati came to a stop. Everything was quiet. Violet turned to look at him. He had an indifferent, distant expression; one that warned her not to get close. There were no lights in the mansion. Her mother was definitely not here. Why did he bring her back here? Oh g od. Was he planning to kill and cut her up into pieces? “Get an Uber. I’ll give you an address so you can go get your mother.” He spoke in a quiet tone. Violet looked at him carefully before coming to an inward conclusion. She pursed her lips and held her breath. Then, carefully but very brazenly, she lifted her hand and waved it before his eyes. She stopped breathing and her eyes widened in surprise. “Didn’t you hear me?” His voice had grown colder. “Are… Are you blind?” Violet was in a state of shock. “Did you hurt your eyes?” Could it be? His face was untouched and as handsome as ever!
Jack turned to look at her quietly. In an instant, his cold, hostile aura frightened Violet so much that she was momentarily dazed.
