Chapter 585

作者: Summer Blossom
The driver wasn't entirely convinced. To him, Macie looked underage, and Rico was about his age. So, he doubted Rico's claim that Macie was his girlfriend.

Judging by Rico's clothes, he didn't look wealthy at all. If he weren't trying so hard to hide his face behind a mask and sunglasses in the middle of summer, it wouldn't have seemed so suspicious.

As the driver hesitated, Rico climbed into the back seat and urged, "Hurry up and drive! What are you dawdling about? Do you want to make money or not?

"I'll pay extra. Just hurry up. Those two creeps are harassing my girlfriend because she's pretty."

The driver didn't immediately press the gas pedal to the floor. Instead, the car crept forward slowly.

Then, the two men running alongside got closer and threatened, "If you drive off, you're an accomplice. You'll be behind bars for the rest of your lives."

They went on, "We're her bodyguards, and he's a bad guy. Stop the car!"

Hearing that, the driver was terrified and slammed on the

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 586

    The two bodyguards had already caught up with the taxi. One of them swung the car door open to help Macie, while the other lunged toward Rico.Sensing danger, Rico lashed out the moment the door cracked open. His foot caught the edge of the bodyguard's coat. The bodyguard bent down to dodge, and the two quickly locked into a fight.With the railing right beside them, space was tight. There was no room to fight properly, not even to throw a decent punch.After a few exchanges, Rico realized he was outmatched. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Macie being rescued through the car window. He knew that the police would arrive at any second.Gritting his teeth, he threw caution aside and looked down at the river. He threw out a few fake punches to buy time, then seized the moment to flip over the railing and jump.Seeing things had gone wrong, the bodyguard jumped into the river after him. But the river was wide, and by the time he hit the water, Rico had already disappeared.Up the

    Rico realized that Macie was planning to leave the country. At that thought, Rico knew that he had to make his move now. Once she was gone, it'd be nearly impossible to act.She had spent nearly two hours at the consulate to learn about the visa application process, requirements, and language qualifications. She'd even researched employment prospects across several countries before deciding on the one she'd go to. By the time she walked out, it was nearly 4:00 pm.Macie carried a thick stack of documents as she walked while scanning through a list of companies hiring in her chosen country. She was too distracted to notice Rico leaning against the wall nearby, smoking.Behind her, quick, light footsteps echoed. She frowned as a nagging feeling made her glance over her shoulder.She saw a burly man wearing sunglasses and a mask come into view. Before she could react, his hands shot toward her.Macie's eyes widened in surprise. She turned to flee, but Rico caught her in a chokehold

    Charlie snapped to attention and awkwardly backed out of the room. He knew that there was no point in pushing further. Sean would share the news when he was ready.Once the door closed, Sean returned to his tablet. However, his mind was elsewhere, and his expression darkened slightly.Good news coming? Where were they getting that from?He'd only glanced at his phone, yet his employees jumped to all these wild conclusions. That was way off the mark.Sean continued to catch up on the international updates, then sent a message to Charlie."Rex, the CEO of Lyrex Global, is in the country. Find out why he's here."Charlie replied instantly and immediately went to investigate.Sean pursed his lips as he glanced at the image of the former CEO of Lyrex Global's first branch, who had already been dealt with. That was quicker than he expected.If he remembered correctly, that man's Averdane name was Elias Hale. Sean had met him twice back when he was working abroad to discuss financial

    Just as the project report wrapped up and it was time for each team to share their feedback, Sean put his phone down and started paying close attention.The meeting had run longer than expected. By the time it finally ended, it was already 12:10 pm.Charlie had already left earlier after Macie called him to pick up Sean's lunch. He set the insulated food container down in the CEO's private lounge before heading back to the conference room.When the meeting finally came to a close, Sean stood up and left. As he pushed open the hidden door to his office lounge, a tempting aroma hit him.His eyes landed on the "glutton" sitting on his couch, who was halfway through her meal. When their eyes met, she gave him a thumbs-up."You didn't even bother waiting for me?" Sean grumbled as he walked to wash his hands.Alice flashed a polite smile. "After you called your dear sister a 'glutton', the fact that I didn't take the food downstairs is me going above and beyond.""You're only having l

    Sean acted like nothing had happened yesterday, as if there was no awkwardness between him and Macie. Then, he texted her."Can you prepare an extra portion? Thank you."Macie raised an eyebrow when she read his message. He was the one who had said last time, "Do you think I'm a pig?" and then asked her to reduce the portions.As she was thinking, he sent another message."I heard Alice wants to mooch a meal too. She's a glutton. I'm sorry for the trouble."Macie frowned. She barely glanced at the message before snapping a screenshot and forwarding it to Alice, who was called a "glutton" by her brother. After all, she and Alice were on the same side.Almost instantly, Alice responded with a 60-second voice message—the max length for a single clip. But that wasn't all she sent.Macie didn't even need to press play to know that Alice had gone off. Judging by the length of the audio note alone, it had to be packed with every curse word she could think of.After that, Alice bombard
