Chapter 262 Car ident


    J''s mind slipped out of focus when she read the message from Ethan.


    What had happened? He had already agreed to have dinner with her. Why did he now suddenly say


    that he couldn''t make it?


    "That sucks!" She put her phone aside and began packing her things up in an unhappy mood.


    Gerda noticed that she looked unhappy so she nudged her and said, "We have all heard the


    exciting news! You''re going to be the chief designer of a project, why do you look so down?" "I''m not


    unhappy. You''re just imagining things!" J pinched Gerda''s chubby face gently and made a face


    at her.


    Regardless of what Ethan had said, she was in a good mood today so she didn''t let it get to her.


    Perhaps he really was caught up with some kind of emergency.


    When Gerda noticed that J was about to leave, an idea popped into her head. "It''s your first


    time in charge of a project. Would you like to celebrate the achievement perhaps? There is a new


    pizza ce downtown. I heard the pizza from there is amazing. Do you want to give it a try?"


    J blinked her eyes with confusion. After due thought, she nodded and said, "Sure, I''m free


    tonight anyway."


    In any event, it didn''t seem like Ethan would be home any time soon.


    Gerda was happy when she heard J''s answer. But then she replied with a crestfallen


    expression on her face, "But I don''t know if I have the time to get pizza. I have to finish myst


    design draft urgently today. That pizza ce is really popr, we might have to wait in a queue for a


    while."


    J was amused by the sad look at Gerda''s face. She responded, "Take it easy. I''ll got ahead of


    you and wait in the line, then you cane join meter. How does that sound?"


    "J, you are an angel from heaven!" Gerda hugged her and kissed her appreciatively. "I love you


    so much."


    "Alright, alright. Go finish your design quickly, or the pizza might get cold by the time you get there!"


    J smiled and said. Then she lifted up her bag and made her ways to the elevator.


    Meanwhile, Charis was standing on the higher level of the building, waiting for Ethan toplete


    his perusal of the financial statement. From her vantage point, she looked through the window and


    her eyes fell on a woman standing on the roadside.


    Judging from the woman''s figure, she guessed that the woman was none other than J. She


    seemed to be waiting for a taxi to pick her up.


    Fiona had asked Charis to inform her immediately when she saw J get in a car.

    Charis''s phone was a luxury, smart phone sporting a high-definition camera. Even at a distance,


    she could take remarkably clear photos of the cars on the road. She clicked two pictures of the car


    when J got into it. The license te number and the appearance of the car were captured


    clearly in the photos.


    She secretly sent the photos to Fiona, together with a text letting her know that J had got into


    the car and looked like she was headed up north from the Larson Group.


    J felt so fortunate that there weren''t too many people in the pizza restaurant tonight and she


    managed to get a table within mere ten minutes. Gerda joined her shortly after.


    J learnt from her previous experience and decided against the idea of alcohol. Instead, she just


    ordered juice. By the time they had eaten their fill, it was almost ten o''clock at night.


    "Lind, where do you live? My ce is up that direction. Would you like to take a taxi with me?"


    Gerda burped and asked.


    "I live near thepany, in the opposite direction to your ce." With a smile, J hailed a taxi


    and asked Gerda to get in it first. "I will wait for the next one. Send me a message when you arrive


    home safely."


    After sending Gerda off, J got on another taxi soon.


    It was alreadyte at night, but the streets were still bustling in the city.


    J felt full and sleepy. She leaned against the car window and noticed the car was driving


    towards a bridge. The river was glistening under the moonlight. The bright, crescent moon was


    slowly rising higher into the sky.


    Just when she was about to close her eyes for some rest, something rather odd caught her eye.


    She opened her eyes wide and saw an old, beat up truck headed directly towards them.


    Before she had a moment to react, the truck hit them head on.


    The taxi was knocked over the railing of the bridge, and the two vehicles fell into the river, stirring up


    a huge wave on impact with the water...
