"Huh?" Evelyn froze hearing what Eric said, did this guy even know what he was saying? What the heck was he even thinking?"Now you'll both stay here, get into the car and lie down, I'll be back in no time." Eric continued seemingly not noticing Evelyn's expression."Eric, what the heck are you thinking?" Evelyn asked feeling confused as she couldn't understand what the heck was going on in his head."I can't just leave the clothes, I have to go get them, they are too expensive, I don't like wasting money." Eric shook his head, refusing to listen to Evelyn."But...""No buts, just get into the car and wait for me I'll be back in no time." Eric shook his head interrupting Evelyn."Now don't worry about me and get into the car, everything will be fine " Eric smiled reassuring Evelyn."Now you are both good and wait for me, I'll be back in no time." Eric smiled before running off."Get into the car." Evelyn instructed opening the car and get inside alongside the sales girl.She didn't kn
"You see the problem you caused?" Evelyn rolled her eyes, turning around to look at the cars chasing them. "But it's not my fault, I just didn't want to waste money" Eric grumbled unhappily."Yeah, but now, a whole terrorist group is after us just because you didn't want to waste money." Evelyn huffed and rolled her eyes again before putting on her seatbelt.There was nothing she could do anyway, what had happened had already happened, besides, she knew that Eric was not going to take the blame no matter what, so she just stopped blaming him.He was the one who had put them in the situation, so she was sure that he would have a plan. As to what plan he had she didn't care about it."Evelyn, do you have any idea how we can escape, we are already being surrounded." Eric Suddenly asked, turning to look at Evelyn."You put us in this mess, you'll be the one to get us out of the mess, I don't have any plans." Evelyn rolled her eyes at Eric before proceeding to ignore him.Eric smiled bitt
"Screech!" A loud sound resounded throughout the whole place as the car was forcefully brought to a stop.The men watched in amazement as Eric stopped the car, all of them were overwhelmed by shock. To stop a car moving at such speed required a lot of things. One of them was to step on the brakes and also pull up the handbrakes at the same time.Also, one had to have perfect control of the car or else, they were going to lose control and the crash was going to be even more fatal than it was supposed to be.Besides that, there were a lot of things involved. But at the moment, they were watching a live action of Eric stopping a car accelerating at a very high speed some meters away from causing a crash.Evelyn breathed in a sigh of relief seeing that Eric had stopped the car, but there was a problem at the moment. Even though he had managed to stop the car and prevent the crash, how was he going to prevent the men from shooting at them."Now what next?" Evelyn questioned getting ready
"I'm sorry Eric," Evelyn muttered in a guilty voice as the car shot forward. "Don't worry, it's fine, it wasn't your fault anyway, so don't think about it." Eric shrugged, waving off the matter."But.. ""Are you seriously feeling bad about that?" Eric interrupted Evelyn with a raised eyebrow."Even if you hadn't looked outside, we would still have been discovered, all you did was just accelerate the speed at which we were seen." Eric continued."So, you don't need to feel bad. If you want to feel bad, then channel those thoughts and think of a way to get us out of this mess." Eric rolled his eyes at Evelyn."Alright, I'll think of something." Evelyn nodded in all seriousness."Good." Eric agreed with a smile on his face, then turned to look at the cars. Following them.The highway was free because of the shootings and all, so there was no car to stop them. Also, with the speed of the terrorists, and the government military trying to catch up, the highway was in a chaotic mess.A rea
Eric smiled as he could guess the thoughts of almost everyone present, but that was none of his business, he had already found a way so he was not going to give up.The terrorist car which was directly at the back of Eric when he suddenly stepped on the brakes and immediately shifted to the side.It couldn't afford the collision, so there was no way it was going to let Eric hit it. If Eric didn't value his life, then there was no need to do anything, they all valued their lives, so they were not going to joke with it.Because of Eric's actions, almost all the cars including the government military cars made way for him in such a manner that he was the only one left on the lane.Now, all of them were either in front or beside him."Exactly what I wanted," Eric muttered with a grin on his edge and the next moment, stepped on the brakes pulling the handbrake at the same time.Almost immediately, the car was brought to a stop, not wasting even a second, Eric changed the gears of the car, t
(The Next Day)"Brother, be sure to let me know where you're going next time, otherwise, I'll report you to Mother." Emily threatened."Yes." Eric nodded in agreement, swallowing a lump stuck in his throat.Yesterday when he got to Chloe's house, he wished he had never gone there. If not for Aunt Mary saving him from the clutches of the two women, who knew where he would be?Emily was already in tears thinking that he was dead. Chloe was no better. Though she wasn't crying like Emily was, her eyes were red and it was as though she had lost something.At first, he had tried to convince them that the news had exaggerated everything, but they refused to listen to him and went all out.Explanations were quite useless and there was nothing he could do about that. All he could do was just try to pacify them.But nothing worked and in the end, it was Aunt Mary who had to intervene, but that was after he had suffered a lot at the hands of the two furious young women. Also, Emily seemed to hav
"Logan, here you are." Eric laughed turning around to look at Logan who was walking towards them with a rather complicated expression"Mr. Eric, if I may ask, is there any problem?" Logan asked, feeling rather skeptical as he looked at Evelyn and the other police officers."Nope, there's no problem, they'll just be aiding the work I'm about to do here." Eric chuckled."But Mr. Eric, the executives are going to make a fuss and also the employees as whatever the police would be doing, they would be doing it without any proper investigation," Logan said slowly, trying to hint that bringing police officers to the company was going to cause a lot of problems."Well, I think it's my mistake this time, but let me introduce her to you." Eric grinned, understanding what Logan was trying to hint at.But then he couldn't care less, Evelyn was Simon's granddaughter and also had a right to the company. So she could arrest anyone who violated the rules of the company.Besides, he was going to find
"Who the heck are you?" The man, a fat chubby man, yelled seeing Eric walk into the office alongside the police officers who were looking as though they wanted to eat him alive, especially Evelyn."Who am I?" Eric mused for a moment before chuckling Loudly looking at the man."I'm your doom." Eric grinned, showing his rows of white teeth.The man shivered upon seeing the grin on Eric's face, from the way the latter smiled, he was sure that he had no good intentions, he had to look for a way to escape."I don't care who you are, but you're under arrest for sexual assault." Evelyn voiced suddenly as she removed her gun pointing at the man."Sexual assault?" The man burst out into laughter hearing what Evelyn said."Who the hell do you think you are?" He sneered."You're just an ordinary bitchy police officer and yet, you dare....""Who the fuck do you think you are to insult my woman?" Eric's low growl came, cutting off the man, and the temperature of the office which was already cold i
