Aurora smiled before she said, "Master Wade, please trust my skills!" 1
Charlie nodded before he stepped on the speedboat and sat down next to Aurora. 1
At this time, Aurora pressed the start button. The four side-by-side V8 marine engines roared loudly. The low idling sound was even more powerful compared t o the feeling of a supercar. 9
Aurora drove the speedboat slowly out of the dock. After that, she smiled mischievously at Charlie before she said, "Master Wade, please sit tight!” 1
After she was done speaking, she suddenly increased the accelerator to its maximum power! 1
The entire speedboat burst forward with great power a s it rushed forward.
Although Charlie had been prepared for this, he was still shocked by the huge power of this speedboat. 1
The lake was very wide. So, driving this speedboat was not like driving on land where you would have to pay attention to the conditions of the road at all times. 7
On the lake, it was still alright to close your eyes for a moment before you open your eyes again. Therefore, the entire lake suddenly became Aurora's venue to act recklessly. 2
Her character itself was a combination of rigidity and softness. Her character as a feisty young woman solidified her preference for this kind of intense extreme sports.
However, what Aurora did not expect was that Charlie would have an extremely calm expression from the beginning to the end. This made her feel a little disappointed. 7
The reason why she had invited Charlie to ride on the speedboat was because she wanted to see how Charlie looked when he was nervous. After all, everyone who had been on her speedboat had always been nervous o r afraid. 1
She felt that even if Charlie was not afraid, at the very least, he would show a little nervousness on his face. I f that happened, she would have succeeded in pranking him. s
However, the expression on Charlie's face did not change at all.
"I know!" Aurora replied as she smiled. "Jasmine gave you the check to honor you when you gave us the magical pills at Don Albert's Heaven Springs the last time, right?"
Charlie nodded.
Aurora hurriedly asked, "Master Wade, one hundred million dollars should be nothing in your eyes. Why would you be nervous about that check?" 6
Charlie smiled as he said, "I placed the one hundred million dollar check in my pocket at that time. After that, I had mistaken the one hundred million dollar check for a one hundred and eighty thousand dollars check when I had given it to my mother-in-law." 1
Aurora asked incomprehensibly, "Why would you be nervous about that? Anyway, one hundred dollars means nothing to you at all." 7
Charlie smiled indifferently before he said, "I wouldn't feel sorry at all if I lose that one hundred million dollar check. However, I'd feel really distressed and I won't be able to sleep for an entire month if that one hundred million check falls into my mother-in-law's hands!”
