At this time, a very worried Claire was also rushing to the Silverwing Hospital.
She was feeling very anxious because she heard that her mother's leg was broken. She did not even know what had happened to her mother during the past two days.
After Elaine hung up the phone, she held her right leg i n her hand as she broke out in cold sweat from the pain. 5
At this time, Elaine screamed as she urged the driver with an annoyed expression on her face, "Can you drive your broken car a little faster? Why are you driving so slowly? Do you know that I am already hurt right now?" 7
The cab driver replied indifferently, "There is a speed limit that I have to adhere to when driving in the city. I have to follow the speed limit regulations strictly. I will not only get my points deducted if I speed, but reckless driving will also pose a great threat to the pedestrians' safety." 2
"Who would you be threatening?" Elaine was furious. When she heard the cab driver's words, she started scolding him angrily, "Can you drive faster? I am hurting so much right now! Are you trying to make more money out of me? Is that the reason why you are driving so slowly? If I end up disabled because of you,
I will make sure that I settle this score with you!" 9
The cab driver replied helplessly, "I am already driving this car fast enough! If you think that I am driving too slowly, then you can get off and hail another cab instead!" 7
Elaine did not even bother to think about his words and she simply blurted out, "What kind of attitude is this? Do you believe that I am going to file a complaint against you? Do you believe that I am going to make you lose your employment today?" 6
The cab driver replied angrily, "I am following the traffic rules and regulation and I am driving safely. What do you have to complain about me? Are you going to file a complaint saying that I refuse to speed when you asked me to?" 2
Elaine gritted her teeth as she cursed, "I will complain and tell your employer that you were acting indecently and sexually harassing me!" 7
The cab driver started laughing out loud. At this time, he looked at Elaine through the rearview mirror before he said contemptuously, "Did you even look at yourself in the mirror today? Do you even know how ugly you look? You do not even have your two front teeth, and you actually have the guts and face to say that I was sexually harassing you? I would have to burn incense to thank god if you did not sexually harass me!" 9
Elaine was at a loss for words. She really did not expect the cab driver to talk back at her or ridicule her ugliness at the moment. Elaine got even angrier at this time and she shouted coldly, "What is your name? Which company are you working for? Do you believe that I am going to call your company to complain about you right now?"
