With that, he would be able to mull over it, and she would not have to waste her time. In other words, it was a decision that would benefit them both.

“Okay. I’ll come back after I figure things out. I’m really sorry. I never thought it’d be as complicated as this. I sincerely apologize for wasting your time, Ms. Joan,” Carl agreed immediately.

In fact, he had been stumped by how he should keep up with his lies, so upon hearing Joan’s suggestion, he quickly grabbed hold of the opportunity to avoid exposing himself.

“It’s okay, you’re our client, and this is my job,” Joan replied. “So we’ll stop here today, Mr. Jefferson. I have other things to attend to, so I’ll be taking my leave.”

“Sure, Ms. Joan. I’ll be leaving too. Would you like me to send you back?” Carl joked.

“Thank you, but it’s best that I take a cab,” Joan rejected instantly with an apologetic smile.

“It’s fine. Let’s walk out together. I’ll help you hail a cab.”

Carl then gestured for her to step out of the café first.

“All right. Thank you.”

As the two stood by the side of the road, they chatted away.

Slowly, Joan became anxious. It seemed that there were barely any cabs around that day, and the ones that drove past them already had passengers on board.

“Be careful!” Carl yelled as he pulled Joan aside.

Right then, a car sped past where Joan had been standing a second ago.

Although Joan had fallen onto the ground from Carl’s pull, she was safe.

On the other hand, Carl was not as fortunate as she was. Although the car had not collided with him, it still clipped him and sent him flying a few yards away from where he stood earlier.

Joan was still sitting on the ground, frightened by what just happened. If she had been knocked over by the car, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
