Chapter 237 She Goes Back on Her Own
Gerald was driving the car on the highway.
Gerald didn’t want to talk to Leana anymore as he was a little angry.
After all, Gerald had risked his life to save Leana, but she still threatened to expose his secret
unless he agreed to bring her into Night Watch. This was really… too much!
Even though he knew that Leana wanted to avenge her parents, he still felt a little annoyed in his
heart. He simply didn’t pay attention to her.
“Do you agree or not?” Leana sat in the passenger seat and asked Gerald.
“Well,” Gerald said, “I saved your life. Instead of thanking me, you threatened me. It’s unfair,
right?”
Leana said indifferently, “I know I’m being a jerk, but I have no other choice. I have to go to Night
Watch. My parents were Watchmen but got killed by insiders. I have to take revenge!”
“Saul did it, right?” Gerald asked, “Mr. Jackson told me that my mission is to kill him. I promise you that I will kill him for you one day. Is that okay?”
“No, I must kill him personally to avenge my parents,” Leana said stubbornly.
“Don’t be a child,” Gerald said.
“Anyway, if you don’t bring me into Night Watch, I will expose you. I don’t care!” Leana said willfully.
Gerald turned on the emergency flashers and pull in on the emergency lane.
Gerald turned around and said to Leana, “Get down!”
“What?” Leana was stunned for a moment. “What do you mean?”
“I only promised Mr. Jackson to save you, but you repaid my kindness with ingratitude. I am not your grandfather, so I won’t spoil you. Now that I have rescued you, there is no need to take you back to Washington,” Gerald said.
Leana was stunned. She glared at Gerald and said, “This is the highway. How can I go back?”
Gerald curled his lips and said, “On foot!”
“You…” Leana’was speechless. She looked at Gerald in surprise and said, “You… you don’t have the slightest manner of being a gentleman!”
“Damn!” Gerald scolded, “I fucking saved you, and then you’re cursing me. Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and get down.”
“I…” Leana was dumbfounded. She did not expect Gerald to ask her to get out of the car.
Leana seemed to have lost her temper. She got out of the car and said through gritted teeth, “Alright. You have to bring me into Night Watch. Otherwise, I will expose you. Give me your phone. I will call someone to pick me up!”
She heard a sound at this moment.
The window was winded up.
Then, the engine roared.
The car suddenly rushed out in front of Leana’s eyes.
Leana stood there dumbfounded.
She thought that Gerald was just scaring her.
But Gerald… really left her on the highway and drove away by himself.
“Gerald, bastard!” Leana stomped her feet in anger.
It was almost midnight.
Gerald drove the car and curled his lips.
Gerald understood Leana’s thoughts, but he was a bit annoyed. Leana was so naïve that she thought that her requirements would be unconditionally met.
Gerald wasn’t worried because Leana was at the top level. Although it was fifty miles far, she could still be able to run back.
Gerald was in a good mood. After all, he had dealt with Darrell and Mark properly.
He stepped on the gas pedal. About an hour later, he returned to his apartment.
