Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Without any clue as to what John had done, Nina patiently stood at the roadside and looked at the cars passing by. Rarely any taxi passed by, and those that did were not flagged as empty.

Henry was an efficient subordinate, and did exactly what John had instructed him to do. All the taxi companies had been bought by John effortlessly. All of the registered taxi drivers, whether on the road or were changing shifts, received the same message accompanied by Nina's photo.

Meanwhile, Nina saw a vacant taxi from afar and walked over to knock on the window. The driver had just put down his phone and slowly rolled the window down.

"Excuse me, I'm going to L University. Can you please take me there?" Nina was about to open the door and get in the car, but she realized that it was locked and she couldn't get in.

When the taxi driver saw that Nina was the same person as the girl in the picture, he changed his mind and smiled while saying in an apologetic manner, "I'm sorry. I've already taken an appointment elsewhere."

"Okay, thank you." Without putting much thought into it, Nina returned to the roadside and waited again.

She tried to flag several empty taxis that passed by, but all of them refused. Each one of them had different kinds of reasons, while some even had the same absurd reasons.

Lexingport City, as the economic center of the country, was highly developed and industrialized. It housed diversified kinds of people, a mixture of the good and the bad. All the ta

e taxi companies in the city, she still didn't hitch a ride in his car," Henry explained and somehow felt a sudden compassion for John.

"Really? Did she walk back to the university?" Panic was written all over James' stunned face. He could not believe John would make her walk all the way back, considering the far distance.

"No, she didn't," Henry replied while shaking his head.

Had she really walked back, John would have been able to gloat that she deserved it as a result of her hardheaded disobedience.

"If she didn't walk, then how did she get back?"

"She bought herself a car!" Henry still could not believe that she had, in fact, bought a car, because he still could not get over the fact and had not expected that.

The corners of James' mouth twitched with an impish smile. For the first time ever, he had seen someone treat John in such a domineering and indifferent manner without any hint of fear.

So smart, she bought herself a car.

"Excellent idea! Absolutely excellent!"

At that moment, people came out of John's office. They were walking slowly, lost in their misery. But as soon as John came out too, they were terrified and ran away as fast as their legs could bring them.

John, however, was still not pacified and was still in a bad mood. He didn't feel any better at all, even after having vented his anger.

His eyes darkened, and a complicated mix of emotions flashed through his eyes.

"What is she afraid of the most?" he asked his nephew.
