Chapter 178 Are You Trying To Kill Us?



However, before Maddy could answer, the car door suddenly opened. Scarlett was surprised to see Carter getting out of the car.

Carter looked dashing in his casual clothes; he wore a white shirt, khaki trousers, and white sneakers. This was the first time Scarlett had seen him look like this. He looked much younger, and this time Scarlett believed Carter was the same age as her because if he wears a formal suit, he looks older than his age.

"Carter! Why are you here?" Scarlett asked, confused as she looked around for Logan, but the man was nowhere to be seen. "Where's Logan?" she turned and asked Maddy.

"Sister Scarlett, Logan had to leave early..." Carter answered Scarlett's question.

"Why did he leave early without waiting for me? or at least tell me!? Did he lose his memory or something?" Scarlett asked, slightly upset and confused. She clearly recalled telling Logan they would only leave at 5 PM. And it's not even five yet!

Scarlett was even more confused when she saw Carter. Instead of answering her question, he smiles.

"Why are you smiling?"

"Oops! Sorry, Sis..." Carter took a deep breath before continuing, "I told Logan to go first. Because I'll drive you there!" Carter replied excitedly.

Without waiting for Scarlett's response, he opened the car door for her and ushered her into his new sports car — A limited edition.  There are only 2 in this country. Not even his older brother has a type like this. And now he wanted to show off to his sister-in-law.

Scarlett didn't say a word and immediately got into the car.

...

"Sister-in-law, today I will be your chauffeur!" He chuckled when he saw Scarlett in a daze, not saying a word.

Carter started the engine and let her observe his new car. She must be impressed with him to own this car, right?

He drove slowly because the White and Riley Mansions were only 7 minutes away at average speed. So, he wanted to have a bit longer chat with his sister-in-law.

Shortly after...

"W-What? Why are you looking at me like that, Sis? Are you mesmerized by my good looks? I think my looks are not that far from my brother, right?" He quickly glanced at her.

Scarlett, "..."

"Tsk! Sure!" Scarlett shook her head and looked at the street ahead.

"Hahaha, my sister-in-law is an honest person…" he said playfully.

For Carter to spend time with his sister-in-law was his goal, he wanted to get to know her better. Because it was so hard to spend time with her alone like this. And now, while his brother is still on an overseas trip, it's his chance to talk to her.

"Sister-in-law..."

"Carter, just call me Scarlett! I feel so much older when you call me that."

"Sure..." Carter smiled before continuing, "Scarlett, you don't like it when I pick you up?" He asked again after he saw her silent. Seemed uninterested in saying anything.

"No! I don't mind. However, I don't particularly appreciate driving sports cars. I prefer sedans or SUVs. They have more space and are higher from the asphalt surface!" Scarlett answered seriously. She never liked this kind of car, so she has no sports cars in her New York car collection.

Carter was shocked to hear Scarlett answer. He was in awe of his sister-in-law. All the girls who ride in this car would be overjoyed and even compliment him. Unfortunately for Carter, Scarlett didn't show that at all.

"Why? Isn't driving a sports car cool?" he asked curiously.

"Well, no offense..." Scarlett glanced at Carter, "Sitting in the car like this, I feel like sitting on the asphalt. And I don't like it!" She smiled bitterly.

Somehow driving a small car like this was torturing her. Besides being too low, the space for movement is also minimal.

Carter's brow lifted slightly. Without taking his eyes off the road ahead, he said, "Don't you often ride in the same car with my brother?"

He often saw them when they came to the Riley Mansion. Therefore, he thought, Scarlett likes sports cars.

Scarlett smiled and turned her gaze to the outside. She suddenly missed Xander!

"Well, that's a different case!"

"How come? Isn't it the same?"

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom Scarlett turned to look at Carter again. She smiled before replying, "...That's because my husband is the driver! I forgot the feeling of sitting on the road because he always fascinates me!"

Carter suddenly slammed on the brakes. The sound of screeching tires was clearly audible due to the sudden stop.

No matter how expensive this car is, sudden braking like this can cause them to have an injury. Luckily Carter drove this car at moderate speed.

Scarlett, reflexively looked forward, worried that they might hit something, but the road ahead was empty.

Her hands spontaneously gripped the seat belt. So her body wouldn't be thrown forward—Even though she knows this expensive car must have a seat belt that will keep her safe in her seat even though the vehicle stops suddenly.

This kind of thing will not scare her, but she wasn't happy that Carter had suddenly hit the brakes!

She glared at Carter, "What the hell are you doing, Carter Riley? Are you going to kill us?"

Scarlett shook her head and looked back, afraid that there was a car behind them. But a second later, she remembered, they were at Riley's private property. This entire Pearl Garden belonged to Riley. So, no one will pass this street except them.

She looked at Carter again, and she was surprised to see Carter's pale face.

"S-Sister... S-Scarlet, I'm sorry!" Carter was surprised to hear her words, making him hit the brakes without noticing.

He felt so stupid! And worried that Scarlett would be frightened. But seeing her calm face made him relaxed.

Scarlett wanted to laugh at his shocked expression but was worried that this man would act stupid again. She just took a deep breath.

"It's okay! Now, drive fast. I can't stand sitting in this car!!" She wants to get her ass out of this car.
