"Wait!" John didn't want to pretend to be painful anymore.
Then John stood up and straightened his clothes. Without asking Nina, he said, "I'll drive you to school."
"What?" What did she hear just now?
"Are you sending me to school?" Nina asked in reply, feeling that something was unusual.
Was he trying to play tricks on her again?
"Anything wrong?" Why didn't she believe it? Did he look like a bad guy?
Besides, was it strange for him to send her to school?
He didn't think so.
Nina had already become his woman. Of course he would send her by himself.
"No, but don't you need to go to work?" Nina raised her hand and indicated him to look at his watch. It was already eight o'clock.
There was still plenty of time before her class began. But if he went to work now, he could still arrive at the company on time.
"No." Couldn't the company operate normally if he didn't go to work on time? Then why did he spend so much money on employing so many people?
For the time being, sending Nina to school was more important.
Nina blinked. With such a boss, the company should go bankrupt.
In the end, she still let John drive her to school. The moment she left the North Yard, she felt that she had made a wise decision. If no one drove her back, she might really have to walk to school.
The North Yard was on the hill and was so far away from the city.
After getting in the car, Nina kept vigilant, fearing that he would leave her halfway. There was no way to buy a car here. On the other hand, she was afraid that he would take revenge on her and drive her to the mountains and did some bad things to her.
Nina had always been concerned about the road ahead, and from time to time, she would pay attention to the mood of John. She needed to be careful and protect herself.
"Uncle John, is it okay for me to call you in this way?" The first step to negotiate with others was to call his name in a proper way.
In fact, she still didn't know how to address him. If it was her own idea, she would just call his name.
A name was to be called.
But since she knew him, she hadn't heard anyone call him by his name. Everyone called him in a respectful way.
"No." The man clenched the steering wheel angrily.
He didn't want to hear Nina call him Uncle John, as if his niece's wife was calling him.
It was obvious that she was his woman, not James'.
In an instant, he hated James again.
The trees on both sides of the window were dazzling, and Nina's heart was thumping. Feeling that the speed of the car was obviously faster, she grabbed the seat belt with both hands. After a while, the speed returned to normal.
With a lingering fear, Nina said, "How about Mr. John?"
'Mister? I'm a respectful person in your eyes?' He couldn't accept the fact that Nina call him Mr. John.
"Then, how should I call you?" Nina was anxious. What did this man mean? Why couldn't she call him Mr. John like others?
She really wanted to lift his skull to see what was going on in his brain.
Hearing Nina ask for his opinion, the expression on his face softened. With a smile at the corners of his mouth, he asked, "What do you want to call me except Uncle John and Mr. John?"
"You... Ask me?" It was surprised that he asked for her opinion.
'What's wrong with this man? Is it because I beat him too hard last night after getting drunk and caused some sequelae?'
She looked carefully at John. His head was not deformed, and there was no bald patch on his head. His hair was slightly curled and black, with a little maroon.
His face was good-looking of course. He had dashing eyebrows and starry eyes. His pursed lips were actually not very thin, but with a pink color. He would often inadvertently lick his lips, very shallow and quickly, without being noticed.
