Chapter 678 Refuse To Take Jay
Obviously, the driver was afraid that Jay wouldn't give him money when Jay got out of the car.
"I... Lie to you about the money for the taxi?" Jay pointed at his nose incredulously. "Do I look like a man without money?"
To his annoyance, the driver nodded in agreement. "Yes. You definitely look like a man without money."
Hearing this, Jay lowered his head and tugged at his clothes. Well, his clothes worth tens of thousands of dollars had been torn by the Tibetan mastiffs. At this moment, he didn't look like the CEO of Fang Group at all. He looked like a beggar!
Never did he imagine that he would be in such situation I "Okay, I... I won't say anything more. Just take me home first."
"No, you'd better get out of the car. I don't want to be cheated by you, so I decide not to drive you to wherever you want to go." The driver refused to take Jay.
"Well, I am... Why are you so timid? It's only a hundred dollars from here to my home. Do you think I need to cheat on you?" It would be difficult to hail another taxi, so Jay was not willing to get out of the car like this. He would rather convince the driver to take him home.
"I think you're lying. You'd better get out of the car. I have parents and children who rely on me, and it's not easy to make money. Please choose someone else to fool. I'm not easy," the driver pleaded with a sad face.
A rich man like Jay wouldn't normally take a taxi when he went out. He would rather drive his own car, or let his driver do it for him.
It was an honor for taxi drivers to drive him!
But today, he was rejected!
"How about I pay you ten times the fare?" What Jay said made the driver burst into laughter.
"You are really good at joking. You may be able to fool others with your words, but I'm experienced. You can't fool me!"
When the driver laughed, Jay felt insulted and angry. He didn't believe that the driver was not moved by so much money. Therefore, he decided to make the offer bigger, only to be disappointed with the driver's words again.
"Would one hundred times be enough?"
The driver looked at Jay as if he was looking at a fool. "Sir, you are talking too big. Get out of my car. If you don't, I will call the police!"
"Okay, okay. But I hope you won't regret this day. I was telling the truth when I said I will give you a lot of money if you take me home. If you don't believe me, I have no choice!" In the end, Jay got out of the car and slammed the door behind him.
Contrary to the scowl on Jay's face, the driver was grinning widely. "Okay, sir. Take care. Thank you for letting me go. Bye!"
Then the driver left with a big smile on his face.
It was so ironic!
What kind of bad luck had happened to Jay in the past two days?
After he was taken as a thief who climbed the wall, he was now regarded as a penniless beggar.
How could a famous figure like Jay be reduced to such a miserable situation?
Every time a taxi passed by, Jay would wave his hand, hoping that there would be a kind driver to take him. But it almost drove him crazy when no taxi stopped in front of him.
Sure enough, he was discriminated by all the taxi drivers today because of how he looked like.
"Damn it!" Out of anger, Jay kicked the banyan tree beside him.
However, it didn't move at all. It only caused a sharp pain on his foot!
"Well, you all bullied me. I'll find someone to kill you later!" Jay shouted at the banyan tree.
What he didn't know was that Doris was laughing at him inside the car. She only knew that Jay an idiot, but she had never seen him so childish.
Without saying a word, Doris honked the horn.
"Stay away from me. I'm not in the mood..." When Jay turned around and saw it was Doris who was sitting in the car, he swallowed the last sentence.
The frustration he felt was instantly replaced with excitement. "Doris, honey?"
With a sneer, Doris said, "Jay, you are really something, aren't you? Now you are yelling at the banyan tree."
In a hurry, Jay opened the car door and got in. "I am so angry. Honey, thank you for picking me up."
As Jay spoke, he glanced at Doris carefully and asked, "Did you go to the Su family?"
"Or else? Why do you think the police would let you go so easily?" Doris said crossly.
"I know it's all my wife's credit. I was just afraid that Pam will make things difficult for you... Did she say anything?" Whenever he thought of Pam's coldness, Jay still felt a lingering fear within him. "She said, if you dare to go to see Eva again, she will release the Tibetan mastiff and tear you up. At that time, I guess I can only pick up your bones!" An evil smile appeared on Doris' face.
It gave Jay goose bumps so he cursed, "Pam is a cruel and merciless woman!"
For a moment, Doris didn't speak. She recalled what happened in Su's residence, and Eva's face suddenly appeared in her mind. "Tell me, what's going on between you and Eva?" "Have you seen Eva?"
"Yes."
With an exasperated sigh, Jay leaned back against his seat. "Nothing serious. It was just love at an early age. I just can't help but think... There are a lot of people who fall in love at a young age but nothing bad happens to them. Why is there only Eva... Alas, do you think it is my fault? Doris, my heart breaks every time I think of it. We were still so young when I fell in love with her. I asked Eva out, but I never thought that she would have a car accident even in my dream. I... I'll regret it for the rest of my life. Why did I have to fall in love at a young age? Why did I fall in love with Eva?"
Maybe it was because he had been keeping all to himself that when Doris asked him, Jay couldn't help but cry out in pain. "I made her like that. It's a pity for the rest of my life."
After a moment of silence, Doris slowly asked, "Do you still like her?"
However, Jay didn't reply. He was silent as if he was taken back to the past.
In the year of the car accident, Jay lived like a dead body.
It felt as though his soul had been swallowed by a black hole.
Later, he had been with a lot of women and walked out of the sadness brought by Eva.
At that time, he tried his best to avoid visiting Eva or even hearing any news about her.
A year later, when everyone seemed to forget about what happened, Jay also gradually began to forget, until everyone stopped mentioning Eva's car accident one day.
When Jay met Doris, he completely forgot Eva. He was certain that the only woman he loved now was his wife.
However, he didn't expect that the moment Eva would wake up again, his guilt would've been woken up too.
Only because he felt that he owed Eva too much that he went to their house and caused so much trouble. He never thought of getting back together with her.
Thinking of this, Jay glanced at Doris with a serious look on his face. "What will you think if I tell you that I still like Eva?"
"What can I think? It doesn't matter whoever you like. Everyone has a crush on someone." Of course, it was a joke half-meant for Doris.
"I like her, but not in the way you think. I don't love her anymore. I just owe her." A hint of sadness crossed his eyes. "After all, it was all because of me that Eva had a car accident. I feel very guilty. Can you understand?"
"Well, Jay, don't be sad. It's all over. Let's not worry about it too much. Our child is still waiting for us at home!" It was not hard to tell that Jay was somehow lonely and pressured because of Eva's situation, but Doris didn't want him to stay this way.
The past was the past. It was useless to be immersed in sadness!
At the thought of Ace, Jay nodded his head. He didn't want to be immersed in the past, but he felt uncomfortable when he thought of Eva.
After all, the fact couldn't be denied that he had something to do with it.
