Selena did not know whether to laugh or cry. "What use is there in hoping? Why should I have hope if they’re not going to come!"
"Do you really want them to come? Then I should invite them over!"
Fane smiled and spoke in a confident tone, "I believe that they'll definitely preserve m y dignity!”
"My goodness. You're speaking as though you had plenty of dignity, to begin with!"
Selena rolled her eyes at him. Then she noticed that his hand was on her thigh. She picked it up, cheeks flushing. "Drive properly and don't put your hands everywhere. Seriously!"
"Heh. Looks like you're embarrassed!”
Fane chuckled. "I'll place it everywhere when it's bedtime. How about that?"
The pink on Selena’s cheeks deepened. "I can't be bothered with you, you pervert! Now we're both jobless, and you've offended the Drake family. I just pray that James really won't come for us, like what you said!”
"Don't worry. He would have done something just now if he wanted to take revenge! Would he have let us leave just like that?"
They quickly arrived at the villa. After he parked the car, Fane said, "Oh, right. Let me tell you how I was fired by Timothy!"
"Oh, yeah. I would have forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it. Timothy said that you talked against him. What on earth happened? Weren't you doing your job just fine for the Drake family?"
Selena immediately asked as the thought popped into her head.
"That's because I struck big today—I won a bet worth ten billion bucks just like that!"
