On the way back, Ariah's phone rang. When she picked it up and looked at the caller ID, she did not answer the call. Instead, she hung up the phone.
Although Jimmy was driving, he noticed her actions and asked casually, "Who called?"
"Oh, it's no one." Then, Ariah put her phone back into her bag.
Was it really no one?
Since Jimmy was a delicate man with a keen observation ability, how could he not notice that something was fishy? Immediately, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is it a call from the hospital?"
"No, it's an unfamiliar number..."
Suddenly, there was a creaking sound, and before Ariah could say anything, Jimmy had stepped on the brakes.
Caught off guard, Ariah leaned forward. Fortunately, her seatbelt was fastened, and when she came back to her senses, the bag she had placed on her knee was taken away by Jimmy.
At that moment, Ariah's eyes widened, "What are you doing?"
However, Jimmy ignored her as he took out her phone and checked her call history. When he saw that it was really an unfamiliar phone number without a given name, he threw the phone back into her bag.
Angrily, Ariah trembled and shouted, "Jimmy, that's my privacy!"
"You have no privacy in front of me."
Then, Jimmy returned the bag to her. Due to his profession, he was sensitive to certain things. For example, when Ariah reached for her phone earlier, if the call were from an unknown caller, she would definitely have immediately hung up, or she would have answered the call to ask who the other party was.
But there was something strange about her reaction. In fact, she even looked down at the number and paused for a few seconds, as if she was thinking about something, and finally, she hung up the phone.
If there weren't a problem, her reaction wouldn't be like that!
It was why he took her phone and looked at it. But when he did that, he realized that it was really just an unknown number.
Could it be that he was overthinking it?
Just as he was giving it a thought, he heard some noises from the passenger seat. When Jimmy saw Ariah was trying to get off the car, he immediately locked the car door. Then, Ariah turned her head and glared at him with a pair of fiery eyes. "Unlock it!"
"What are you doing?"
"Let me out!"
Slowly, Jimmy's eyes narrowed, and he stared at her for a moment.
At that moment, Ariah was on the verge of exploding with anger. What did he mean by she had no privacy in front of him? What did he think she was?
Both of them refused to budge. When the red light turned green, the cars behind them honked angrily, but Jimmy didn't seem to hear it. At that moment, his dark eyes were still on Ariah, and he just stared at her without a word.
The car right behind them came over and knocked on the window of the car angrily. "B*stard, the light has changed..."
However, Jimmy rolled down the window, and his gaze was as cold as ice. "Get out of my sight!"
Suddenly, the man was shocked by his imposing manner and hurriedly took two steps back. Although his lips twitched as if he still wanted to yell at Jimmy, when he saw Jimmy's strong physique, he swallowed his words and gloomily returned to his car.
Meanwhile, Ariah gritted her teeth and retracted her hand from the car door. "I don't want to get out already. Hurry up and drive!"
If it went on like this, it would definitely affect the traffic.
With a sneer, Jimmy uttered, "Do you think I can't deal with you?"
Then, he started the car and left.
In fact, Ariah was so angry that her eyes turned red. How could she not have realized that this person was so unreasonable? That attitude of his that took things for granted could infuriate anyone to death.
Annoyed, she turned her head and looked out of the window, as her mood suddenly became gloomy.
All this while, Jimmy had always been such an egotistical man. With that self-centered attitude, no one could refute anything that he thought was right.
How could he just checked her phone like that?
Also, who was he to say that she had no privacy in front of him?
Sometimes, the things he did could really drive her crazy!
Suddenly, Ariah felt a pain in her knee as something hit it. With a soft cry, she glared at him with her red eyes and asked, "What are you doing again?"
However, Jimmy snorted and ignored her.
