So he took off his sports jacket, gave it a quick shake, and laid it carefully over her.

Draven’s jacket was oversized, covering Cassia from her chest all the way down to her knees.

Keeping her knees covered would help prevent Her from catching a cold.

After adjusting the jacket snugly around her, Draven reached out to adjust her. Supporting her shoulder with one hand and her head with the other, he carefully shifted her so she leaned against him.

A warm human cushion was far more comfortable than a cold, hard car door.

Draven also told Seven to lower the music.

When they reached the Chesthale Peak toll booth, Seven rolled down the window and pulled out two dollars. However, the staff told him there was no charge and waved them through.

“Huh? Why no charge?” Seven asked, puzzled.

Noticing the staff glance inside the car, Seven followed their line of sight.

Is it because of Mr. Grey?

But if that’s the case, why were we charged when we first got here?

Seven was about to ask Draven what was going on when he saw Draven lift a finger to his lips, signaling him to stay quiet.

“Shh…”

Seven looked at Cassia, who was sleeping soundly on Draven’s shoulder, smacked his lips, and stopped talking.

He started the car and drove through the toll booth.

Even with Seven talking earlier and the noise around them, Cassia had not stirred, which showed how deeply she was sleeping.

When Rosalie’s car arrived at the Chesthale Peak toll booth, the driver, Leslie, tried to pass through directly. But after waiting for a while, the barrier didn’t lift.

“Two dollars for the toll, please,” the staff said, assuming the driver didn’t know the rules.

Leslie turned toward the back seat and looked at Rosalie, then asked in confusion, “Didn’t you

let us through for free before?”

“Before?” The staff peered into the car and didn’t see Cassia.

“I let you through for free earlier because the boss who paid to build this road was in car, so there was no toll.”

“Huh?” Leslie became even more confused.

When they came two days ago, Richard had not been in their car.

your

“This is the daughter of the boss who built the road,” Leslie said, gesturing toward Rosalie in the back seat.

The staff followed his gesture and rolled his eyes dramatically.

Who are you trying to fool? That is clearly Mr. Scott’s daughter.

Still, this driver can’t really be blamed for not knowing the truth. Ms. Wood personally asked Mr. Scott to put the project under his name. To everyone else, it looks like he’s the one who funded the road. Only the toll workers and a few high–level executives know the truth.

The management had repeatedly warned them not to tell anyone.

The staff paused as that thought crossed his mind.

He had accidentally let it slip just now!

But since he hadn’t mentioned Cassia by name, it shouldn’t count as exposing her, right?

Leslie felt increasingly baffled by the strange look he was getting.

Mr. Scott is the one who built this road. What’s wrong with that?

He wanted to ask more, but the car behind them honked several times. Leslie figured it wasn’t good to block traffic, so he decided to pay first, pull over, and then come back to ask.

“Ms. Scott, you’re curious too, right? I’ll go ask for you in a moment.”

Rosalie seemed indifferent on the surface, but she had already guessed who the “Boss” the staff mentioned was.

Still, it wouldn’t hurt to let Leslie confirm it.

So she nodded.

“Yeah, okay.”

Leslie handed over the two dollars, and the staf lifted the barrier.

After their Lincoln passed through, Leslie pulled over to the side of the road. He got out, walked back to the booth, and found the same worker.

“Wasn’t this road built by Mr. Scott?”

Hearing this, the staff looked at Leslie.

Why did this guy come back?

I really shouldn’t have said anything earlier. Now he looked determined to dig for answers.

“I don’t know, don’t ask me. I don’t know anything. I’m just a worker. Why don’t you ask Mr. Scott?” The staff refused to explain and quickly used work as an excuse to avoid the conversation.

“Look, I have work to do. Please don’t interfere with my job.”

Seeing that the staff refused to talk and appeared busy, Leslie had no choice but to give up.

It was strange, but there was nothing he could do.

“Well? Did you find out what’s going on?”

When Leslie returned, Rosalie asked out of curiosity.

“Ms. Scott, that person refused to say anything,” Leslie replied as he fastened his seatbelt and started the engine.

As the Lincoln moved forward, Rosalie and Sacha both turned their heads to watch the toll booth at Chesthale Peak fade into the distance.

Just as expected, two days ago, the staff hadn’t le them pass for free not because they recognized Rosalie, but because they saw Cassia

Does that mean Cassia built this road?

Her father had once told her that building a road would cost at least 100,000 dollars, let alone a road like the one in Chesthale Peak, which was dangerous and full of muddy potholes.
