Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 752

Winnie and Sharon were forced to sit there and endure as Kate rambled on. She endlessly bragged about her utterly average son, making him sound like the second coming of a god.

It took every ounce of their self-control not to burst out laughing.

Sharon, in particular, couldn't resist glancing at Eddie through the rearview mirror—a man with small, squinty eyes, a bulbous nose, and an impatient scowl.

She couldn't help but think to herself, "He's just an ordinary guy. Where does he even get the confidence to think he's such a hot commodity in the dating market?"

Completely oblivious to the looks on their faces, Kate kept chattering away. She was enthusiastically praising Eddie and saying how women were supposedly falling all over him.

Eddie, who had been basking in his mother's flattery, suddenly furrowed his brow and snapped at Sharon.

"Do you even know how to drive? Why are you going so slow? At this rate, we won't get to the hotel until nightfall!"

Sharon's patience was already wearing thin. She shot back sharply, "Open your eyes, Your Highness, and take a good look. There's traffic up ahead."

As if listening to Kate's endless boasting wasn't frustrating enough. Now, they were stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

What should have been a simple 30-minute drive to the hotel had already dragged on for over 50 minutes, and there was still no end in sight.

It was her first day of vacation, and it was already miserable. Why was her life like this?

"Hmph. You're just making excuses because you can't drive. Look over there. There's not a single car in that lane. Why don't you just drive through there and get it over with?" Eddie sneered. His tone was full of disdain.

"That's the oncoming traffic lane. You call that knowing how to drive?" she raised her voice, exasperated.

"Or do Creybia's traffic laws work differently from those in 'small places' like ours?"

"So stubborn. There aren't any cars in the way, are they?" Kate chimed in after clicking her tongue.

"Besides, even if you did break a traffic rule, so what? Just pay the fine, and it's done. What's more important, money or time? I can't stand this penny-pinching, small-minded way of thinking."

Faced with the absurd logic of Kate and Eddie, Sharon was utterly at a loss.

If she could go back and choose again, Sharon would never have volunteered to accompany Winnie to pick these two up. She would've dragged Winnie along and ran for the hills ahead of time.

This kind of misery? Let someone else deal with it. Whoever wanted to pick them up could do it. She was out.
