Just as Jimmy grabbed his phone and wanted to call Ariah, Jean, who was sitting next to Ella, called him softly, "Jimmy." Totally unconcerned, Jimmy asked without even looking at her, "Why haven't you left yet?"

"It's raining outside, and Aunt Ella said that it's not safe for me to go back alone."

At this point, anyone could understand what she was trying to indicate, but Jimmy seemed not to have understood it.

Left with no choice, Jean bit her lip and added, "Aunt Ella wants you to give me a ride home."

With a sneer, Jimmy answered, "Am I your chauffeur?"

"Oh, no. I..."

"Since I'm not your chauffeur, why should I give you a ride?"

Flushed, Jean whined. "Jimmy, it's a gentleman's duty to give a woman a ride!"

"Don't tell me all this nonsense." Not to be swayed by her words, Jimmy uttered, "If you're the woman I like, I'll give you a ride even if it's raining knives, let alone rain. It's a pity that I don't think much of you, and you're a nobody to me. I'm just talking to you for the sake of your father. Do you understand that?11

After all, Jean was a young lady that had always been admired by many, and she had never been treated poorly because of her family's wealth and power.

In fact, she had never been this humiliated to the point where she couldn't even say a word

With tears in her eyes, her lips trembled as she said, "Jimmy, how could you do this..."

When Jimmy saw that she was about to cry, he rubbed his temples in annoyance. If Ariah were to cry, he would definitely feel sorry for her and pity her. However, if another woman cried, he would only feel irritated and disgusted.

With an aggrieved expression, Jean looked at the man in front of her and said bitterly, "Jimmy, since you like that Ariah so much, do you know that when I offered her money and make her leave you, she really did want it!"

No man would like to hear such words. Especially Jimmy, who was an egoistical man, he certainly didn't like to hear it either.

Sure enough, as soon as Jean finished her words, Jimmy frowned and said, "She asked you for 911

"That's right!"

Then, Jimmy glared at her and asked, "How much did you offer?"

"One million!"

After Jimmy heard her answer, he asked expressionlessly, "Did she agree?"

"Of course not!" With a face full of disdain, Jean said, "She even demanded an exorbitant price of one hundred million! Isn't she afraid of being a laughing stock?"

The moment Jimmy heard that, he suddenly smiled and said, "D*mn, my wife is really good at making money."

"W-What?"

Stunned, Jean's eyes widened because she could not believe what she had heard.

Meanwhile, Jimmy couldn't be bothered to care about this her. Compared to Ariah, she was really too dumb, and he didn't even bother to look at her right now. Instead, he turned around and left as she wondered why his mother would fall for such a woman.

"Stop right there!"

As soon as he turned around, Ella stopped him angrily.

Then, Jimmy leaned to one side and raised his thick eyebrows slightly. If his mother couldn't tell what was going on and wanted to force him to give Jean a ride, he would have to be an unfilial son for the time being.

When Ella saw how impatient her son was, she endured it and said to him in a friendly tone, "What's wrong with you giving Jean a ride? Forget about how close we are with their family. Even if it's not because of our close relationship, you should still give our family guest a ride home."

Jimmy agreed softly and suddenly asked, "How did she come here earlier?"

Calmly, Ella replied, "I sent our chauffeur to pick her up."

"Then let our chauffeur send her back. Do we not have a chauffeur?"

"Would I still ask you to give her a ride if our chauffeur was around?" "What's wrong?"

"Didn't your brother scald his hand during dinner? His girlfriend had arrived, and she is waiting at the airport. Since he hurt his hand and couldn't drive, I could only let the driver pick her up."

Then, Jimmy narrowed his eyes. "Kobi's girlfriend is coming? Why didn't he mention anything while we were having dinner?"

"Would you even listen if he told you about it?" Annoyed, Ella muttered, "All you care about is Ariah. Your gaze was fixated on her throughout the whole dinner. Don't you feel ashamed?"

However, Jimmy pretended that he didn't hear it as he took his phone and started to make a phone call. Suspiciously, Ella asked, "What are you doing?"

"Finding someone to send her home." Nonchalantly, Jimmy replied without even raising his head. After the call went through, he went to the second floor and uttered, "Ben, make a trip to the Hudson Family's old house. Remember, not my apartment..."

Stunned, Ella was tongue-tied.

Angrily, Jean stomped her feet and wondered how he could do that.

Meanwhile, Jimmy went up to the second floor and called Ariah. The call went through, but no one answered, so he could only frown and hang up the phone.

The Hudson Family's villa only had two floors, and there were only a few rooms. How could Ariah suddenly disappear out of thin air?

Just as he was about to head downstairs, he heard a voice coming from his room...

"Hold on for a bit. I'll try to be more gentle." It was Kobi's voice.

With raised brows, Jimmy wondered why Kobi was in his bedroom and who he was with.

In the next second, he got an answer the moment he heard Ariah snorted softly, "Ouch, it hurts, Don't touch that area..."

Her voice sounded as if she was forbearing and quavering.

Suddenly, Jimmy's body froze, and he was hotheaded. Furiously, he kicked the door open with his face filled with anger.

When Kobi and Ariah saw him, their faces were full of astonishment.

At that moment, Ariah, who was sitting on the bed, was startled, "Jimmy?"

Meanwhile, Kobi squatted in front of her, and he was holding Ariah's foot in his hand. As a matter of fact, Ariah's ankle was slender and beautiful.

Then, Jimmy glared at Kobi's hand, with a face devoid of expression. "Let her go!"

Immediately, Kobi let go of Ariah with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened. "Ariah sprained her ankle, and it seems a little serious. Come over and take a look at it. I'll get the nanny to bring some medicine."

Although Jimmy was furious, he was still respectful to his elder brother. "Sorry to trouble you."

"It's fine. It's just a piece of cake."

After that, Kobi opened the door and went out.

As Jimmy watched Kobi leave, he kicked the door and turned to glare at Ariah fiercely. Confused, Ariah asked, "What are you doing? What's so good about having such big eyes, and why do you like to glare at others?"

Meanwhile, Jimmy stood by the door and sneered. "What were you both doing just now?"

Stunned for a moment, Ariah knew that he was taking it the wrong way. Immediately, she threw a pillow at him and said, "Keep your filthy thoughts for yourself! What can we do under broad daylight!" "Broad daylight?" In a despised tone, Jimmy said, "Is there even broad daylight now?"

"You..."

Then, Ariah told herself to calm down, "I couldn't find you downstairs just now, and I didn't want to be alone with your mother, so I came up on my own. In the end, I accidentally sprained my ankle in the bathroom. Your brother happened to pass by and gave me a hand to stop me from falling."

However, Jimmy crossed his arms and looked at her suspiciously, "How could you fall while walking? Do you really think you're like those spoiled main characters in a drama?"

Enraged, Ariah yelled, "There was water on the floor of the bathroom, and I didn't see it. How could you blame me?"

When jimmy heard her answer, he snorted and walked over to her. Slowly, he sat down beside her and placed her ankle on his thigh with his face filled with displeasure. "Did you purposely sprain your ankle because you saw how handsome Kobi was?"

As he spoke, his hand movements were very gentle because he was afraid of hurting her. "I can hear you moaning in the room from a distance. People who don't know you might think the both of you are doing something shady!"

After that, he frowned and asked, "Why is it so swollen?"

At first, he thought it was just a small injury, but after he looked at it carefully, he realized it was really red and swollen. With her light-complexioned skin, it really did seem shocking.
