Chapter 0099
opened my eyes when a deep laughter filled the air, giving me a mushy feeling I turned to the person who made the sound. “Don’t be afraid, Sydney.
Lucas said and even though he was not laughing anymore, laughter danced in his eyes. “Luigi may drive roughly but believe me when I say he is an extremely good, experienced and talented driver. Nothing will happen. We will get your bag alive.”
I swallowed and shook my head but I kept my hold on the edge of the seat.
He roughly wove the car through the dimly lit streets and dark alleys until we finally cornered the thief in a dark narrow alley, I wouldn’t have spotted the thief if it wasn’t for the car’s bright headlights. I was surprised how he had just cornered him like that but I was impressed and of course, happy that I would get back my belongings.
The thief, unable to brake in time in his sprint, headed straight for the car in confusion
My heart leaped to my throat and I clutched the edge of the seat tightly. I closed her eyes and braced myself for the impending collision. I felt bitter toward the thief but I wasn’t ready to see him uncontrollably ram himself
into the car.
I was thrown forward when the car came to an abrupt halt and immediately, there was a loud bang that shook the car I felt hands on me then I felt myself in Lucas warm and safe embrace I opened my eyes just in time to see Luigi jump out of the car through the window.
The thief who must have managed to get back on his feet was already. limping back the direction he came. Luigi caught up to him in no time and snatched my bag from his hands.
Luigi dragged the thief after him and sauntered toward the car. He flashed me a confident smug grin and stretched his hand that held the bag into the car toward me.
I raised my brows and bit out, “Thank you very much! I am glad I am still alive to get my bag Then I snatched the bag from his hands.
Him and Lucas erupted in laughter a
outburst.
I closed my eyes as the sides of the car scraped the walls as Luigi drove it out of the alley to the proper road for a car and called the police.
As we waited I saw the front and sides of the car and I was ridden with guilt, it was badly damaged and I was sure that a lot would be spent to return the part that got damaged to its original state.
“This all happened because of me,” I sighed as I walked back to where I had been standing beside Lucas. I leaned against the car, my body tumed toward Lucas. I looked up at him, “Let me pay for the repairs.”
Lucas smiled softly and shook his head. “Not on my life.” Then he turned to Luigi who sat, sprawled on the car’s hood, the thief in his grasp. Lucas dealt the both of them a playful glare and gritted out, “Luigi and the thief should pay for the repairs!”
The thief’s eyes widened as he turned to Lucas, his mouth opening and closing.
