Gwendolyn felt relieved when she saw a car coming. However, she was stunned when she heard the man’s voice.
How can it be him? Should I hop in the car? Patrick is going to choke me if he finds out that I lied to the driver about his intention to jump from a building.
The Uber driver came out of his car and helped Gwendolyn hold on to Patrick while she was still contemplating.
“Miss, I can give you both a free ride,” said the driver.
The driver was being a busybody. He was curious if anyone had rescued her husband from the building. Regardless, he thought that he would have done a good deed if he managed to save someone today.
Gwendolyn could not bring herself to refuse the driver, seeing that he was so helpful. She could only assist the driver in getting Patrick to his car while smiling awkwardly.
“Thank you so much for helping!”
After she got into the vehicle, the driver closed the door for her.
The driver was in a great mood when he began his drive.
Patrick leaned in close to Gwendolyn and wrapped his arms around her.
He closed his eyes and pretended to be drunk.
The driver observed through the rearview mirror. As expected, pretty women will definitely look for good-looking men. They look like a match made in heaven. Why would the guy think of taking his own life? Did they get into a fight?
The driver kept glancing back through the rearview mirror.
He couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, did you have a fight with your husband?”
Gwendolyn shot him a look after he started asking. But somehow, he didn’t seem to notice it as he continued, “Young man, when it comes to disagreements with the ladies, men should be more magnanimous and coax their wives rather than drinking or seeking one’s own destruction.”
Gwendolyn was speechless at that moment.
She was sick of it. The driver’s affection was overwhelming to her.
“Hey, since you were there all the time, did the guy jump from the building?”
Someone else’s voice came through on the driver’s walkie-talkie just then.
