I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 1132

Chapter 1132: Afraid of Me Now?

In the end, it was Lane who drove Bonnie home.

"Lorraine, you don't have much else to do at home, so why don't you come along and have some fun with us? You can experience the nightlife of your hometown," Bonnie said, lightly pushing Lorraine towards Haider as she spoke. "Big brother, I'm leaving Lorraine in your care."

Haider glanced at Lorraine. "Don't worry."

Lorraine looked at Bonnie and thought, even if you didn't suggest it, I wouldn't dare leave. After all, if I do leave, someone is going to break my legs!

With that in mind, Lorraine maintained her composure. "You go ahead and take the kids home. Don't worry about me; I can take care of myself."

Bonnie acknowledged with an "mm-hmm." "Let's catch up tomorrow."

Lorraine nodded. "Alright."

As Lane left, he nodded at Haider, conveying a message that probably only Haider and Lane understood.

After Bonnie and Lane got in the car and drove away, the remaining group changed the scene.

Due to Bonnie's instructions, Lorraine naturally got into Haider's car.

As Lorraine looked at Haider sitting in the back seat, she moved to get in the front passenger seat.

Before she could make a move, Haider reached behind her and pulled her collar, dragging her over. "Sit in the back."

Eduard was surprised to witness Haider treating a woman like this. He glanced at Haider's face, his memory of Haider always being well-mannered and polite, regardless of who he interacted with.

But at this moment, seeing Haider grab a young girl's collar like this, Eduard felt like he was looking at a fake Haider.

Haider, however, was nonchalant. He met Eduard's gaze and asked, "Do you like what you see?"

Eduard gasped and quickly turned away, not wanting to intrude on their privacy.

Lorraine had no choice but to bend and sit in the back seat.

Just as she was about to close the car door, someone grabbed her hand. "Get in."

Lorraine couldn't help but protest, "Can't you get in from the other side?"

Haider said calmly, "This is my car. If I want to get in from that side, I will."

Lorraine muttered, "..."

Eduard mumbled, "..."

Haider got into the car directly. Lorraine hadn't even had a chance to move when Haider pulled her over. "Sit next to me."

Eduard, even if he was slow, sensed that something was different.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Eduard raised the partition, prepared to turn a deaf ear to what was happening in the back.

Lorraine looked at the partition rising and felt uneasy.

"Now afraid of me? Weren't you quite fearless before?" Haider leaned against his seat, his tone cool.

Lorraine glanced at him, momentarily feeling that this person was somehow different from the one in her memory. She couldn't quite put her finger on what exactly had changed.

The car drove steadily on the wide road, and there was no more conversation between the two in the backseat.

Eduard couldn't hear what was happening, but that didn't stop his curiosity.

Taking advantage of a red light, Eduard sneaked several glances back.

Apart from them getting close, nothing else seemed to be happening.

At an unknown number of times, when Eduard sneakily looked back, Haider knocked on the partition.

Eduard put down the partition, turned to Haider, and asked, "Mr. Hughes, what's the matter?"

Haider looked at him. "What were you looking at?"

Eduard was stunned, chuckling awkwardly. "I wasn't looking at anything."

"Curious?"

Eduard's head shook like a rattle-drum. "Not curious."
