Chapter 76


    Jodie did not dare to drive too fast because of the dark surroundings. She was betting on the dimly lit


    environment for a chance to escape. Even if she had to ditch her car in the parking lot, Jodie might have


    a chance of stumbling into an elevator.


    The vehicle behind followed her into the parking lot as she expected. She noticed that the vehicle was a


    van and reckoned that more than one person was inside the van. She had given up hope on requesting


    assistance from a passer–by because, at that point, only running into a group of people would be helpful


    for her to escape the predicament.


    A ck Bentley suddenly appeared in front of her car just as she turned a corner. Without having


    sufficient time to avoid the car, Jodie mmed on the brakes. She shrieked out loud as the two vehicles


    collided. The van trailing behind her came to a halt as well. Four to five burly men got out of the car, each


    of them holding a weapon in their hands. It was apparent to Jodie that these men were up to no good:


    She hurriedly got into the Bentley upon seeing that. Disregarding the man in the driver‘s seat, she


    frantically locked the car windows and doors.


    The few muscr men shouted outside of the Bentley, “Get out of the car!”


    Jodie pretended not to hear them. This car is obviously very expensive. I dare them to thrash this car if


    they are so desperate to get to me!


    The man in the driver‘s seat gazed at her with an amused look. “What are you doing, little girl? Are you


    nning to seduce me after crashing into my car?”


    Jodie thought that his voice was surprisingly pleasant. Then when she turned to look at his face, she


    subconsciously gulped. “I have no other choice. I’ll get beaten to death if I get out of the car now. I don‘t


    even know them! Let‘s discuss thepensation for the car‘s damageter. Please bring me out of here


    for now. Bear in mind that I can‘t reimburse you if I die here!”


    That man chuckled in response. “I don‘t need you topensate me. I only want you to get out of my


    car now.”


    However, not only did Jodie ignore him, she even fastened the seatbelt on the passenger seat and acted


    as if she would never leave the vehicle. “I don‘t want to! Don‘t think too highly of yourself just because


    you are slightly rich. Even though I am driving this cheap car now, my family used to own a few of this


    Bentley in multiple color variants. They were parked inside my garage. One more thing, do not


    call me ‘little girl. I bet you‘re not even over thirty years old. Otherwise, I‘ll address you as my dad!”


    Jodie was indignant because that man in front of her appeared at most two or three years older than her,


    yet he brazenly called her “little girl.” Thus far in her life, Jodie had never begged others for help. She


    would not have gotten into the car if she was not caught up in that grave situation.


    Intrigued, he took out his ID card and showed it to her. “All right. You‘ll have to call me ‘Dad‘ now.”.

    She examined the date of birth printed on the ID card before saying sulkily, “Steven Jones... Is that your


    name? That‘s quite a pretty name. I did not expect you to be so old. Nheless, you are too young to


    be my dad, even if you‘re eight or nine years older than me. Please help me out. Look, these people are


    about to hit your car. I‘m not paying for the damage they cause!”


    Steven nced at the few men outside of the car nonchntly. Then he smirked at Jodie. “Call me Dad,


    then I’ll help you.”


    She was cursing at him inwardly but was forced to sh a wide grin. “Dad...” Jodie was wise enough to


    know when to concede. She promised to avenge herself someday as long as she could live through the


    mess.


    Steven did not say another word. He got out of the car alone and locked her inside the car.


    The few burly men were looking for someone to vent their anger at that moment. They charged at Steven


    with the weapons in their hands after noticing someone had gotten out of the car.


    a


    Steven kept his calm and slowly removed his ck coat that was restricting his movements, revealing


    the perfect fitting suit he was wearing underneath. Then he raised his leg andnded a precise kick on


    the muscr man nearest to him, causing thetter to crash on the floor a few feet away.


    Jodie‘s palms were covered in sweat as she witnessed the brawl in anxiety. She was in the same boat as


    Steven, and they were up against a few burly men. Even though Steven appeared to be skilled in


    fighting, Jodie was still nervous because she would be sharing Steven‘s miserable fate if he lost in the


    fight. !


    Those muscr men were all lying on the floor after five minutes, to her utter astonishment.


    Impressively, Steven had not used his fists in the fight. Instead, he had merely booted them. If not for the


    fact that Jodie was in a rtionship with Jack, she


    would have offered herself up to Steven. At that moment, she was more than willing to sleep with him, let


    alone call him “Dad” inside the car.
