The car door opened automatically, and Felicia got in.
"Mr. Russell, bye-bye."
Maurice, that mad dog, laughed uncontrollably, even blowing a kiss, while the car sped away, leaving behind Stephan, who looked like he wanted to skin Maurice alive.
Furious, Stephan forced his driver out of the car and took the driver's seat himself, slamming the accelerator down hard.
"Stephan!"
Johanna gritted her teeth, quickly diving into the car before he could speed off.
A powerful inertia hit her.
Before she could buckle her seatbelt, her small body was thrown around the spacious backseat, tumbling until she finally managed to steady herself and fasten the seatbelt, still shaken and terrified.
He was driving way too fast!
The speedometer surged from 110 mph to 125 mph to 160 mph...
The car was swerving more and more, but the Lincoln didn't fall behind and was speeding up as well.
The two cars chased each other. Stephan seemed to have forgotten there was someone in the backseat, his foot heavy on the gas as he tried to overtake the Lincoln!
But they were heading into a curve, and just as a large truck was coming from the opposite direction, Stephan sharply swerved the steering wheel. Instead of avoiding it, he tried to force his way between the Lincoln and the truck, narrowly slipping through!
Johanna was so scared her face turned pale, and she couldn't help but scream, "Ah!"
With this speed, one little mistake could be fatal!
Maurice clicked his tongue inside the Lincoln and looked at Felicia meaningfully, saying slowly, "You really are Stephan's weak spot. Look how crazy he is."
She was speechless. Who could beat Maurice when it came to crazy?
She looked through the rearview mirror and saw Stephan's reckless driving. Her palms clenched tightly, and she felt that things were completely out of control!
She called to the driver, "Pull over!"
The driver didn't say a word and didn't respond.
