After the driver drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom away, Charlie drove Jacob's BMW 5 Series over to the entrance of the airport.
As soon as the car stopped directly in front of the three of them, the old man hurriedly opened the rear car door before he said in a gentlemanly manner," Matilda, after you!"
Matilda nodded slightly before she smiled and bent her body to get into the car. 2
Immediately afterward, Paul walked over to the other side of the car as he prepared to get into the back seat with his mother. At this time, Jacob hurriedly said, "0 h, Paul! Since you and Charlie are both young people, you should have a lot of topics in common. You should have a good chat with him along the way to the hotel!" 6
After that, Jacob quickly got into the back seat before Paul could even reply to his request.
Paul had no choice but to get into the co-driver seat. 4
Charlie drove toward the city and Jacob, who was sitting in the back seat with Matilda, could not help but feel a little embarrassed as he said, "Matilda, my car is a little old and crude. I hope that you will not mind it too much." 5
Matilda replied helplessly, “Jacob, I already told you
that I do not care about all these things at all. So, you have to stop talking like this." 2
"Yes. Yes." Jacob started to compliment her, "I know that you do not care about all these things. I just feel that this car is not worthy of your temperament and elegance at all. Just look at you! You do not look like a person who is about to turn fifty! You look like you are less than forty years old! A woman like you should be riding in a top luxury car such as the Rolls-Royce Phantom."
Matilda blushed when she heard Jacob praising herself. She smiled before she said, "Jacob, after so many years, you are still so eloquent."
Jacob smiled before he said, "I am only speaking from the bottom of my heart." 2
Matilda nodded slightly before she asked, "So, how has life been for you throughout all these years?" 1
Jacob sighed as he replied unhappily, "I am just living an ordinary day to day life. To be honest, I have never been happy after graduating from university."
