Stephanie immediately widened her eyes and said, "Jeffrey, what the hell are you up to?"
The driver in front was threatened by Jeffrey's man with a knife, his face pale. The man ordered him, "Drive!"
The driver had no choice. He glanced at Stephanie in the rear-view mirror, and Stephanie nodded, saying, "Do as they say!"
"Okay, Ms. Bishop."
The car started moving.
Stephanie held her backpack in her hands, which was filled with books and a gift for Sebastian.
Her eyes were alert, watching Jeffrey closely.
Jeffrey looked emotionless at the moment, his eyes full of bloodshot, looking very tired.
He stared blankly out the window and said, "Take me to see Ashley and Emily, or you won't be going home tonight."
Stephanie frowned, "How do you know they're back?"
Jeffrey mocked, "you don’t remember?"
"What did I do?"
Apparently, she had completely forgotten what she did and said when she was drunk that day.
However, he didn't mind reminding her.
"Ashley is your teacher, and Emily is my daughter. You told me that yourself."
Stephanie gasped, "Oh my God, how is that possible?"
"You were drunk that day, and Sebastian carried you home."
"And then?"
"When you saw me, you started cursing me as a jerk. But that's not important anymore, Stephanie. You're Ashley's student, and I won't make things difficult for you. Take me to see her or tell me where she is, and I'll let you go."
He seemed to be reasonable.
