Chapter 264
"Your monthly salary." Toddy said deliberately.
Emma paused for a beat before muttering, "What a scam."
Toddy laughed. "Right? I'll take my leave, then. Take a cab back by yourself. Get yourself a female driver. It's unsafe these days, especially for a young, beautiful woman like yourself. Take care."
Upon hearing that, Emma answered, "As soon as I get in the car, I'll tell the driver that I'm one of Master Dylan's secretaries. No one will hurt me then."
No one would hurt Dylan's ally in Orapolis.
Toddy, too, was of the opinion that the name of Master Dylan could really scare anyone.
As such, he left.
Emma couldn't help but say, "Drive slower. There are many cars on the road after work. Don't keep changing lanes to overtake. That's not safe."
Toddy, like Kendall, was fond of car racing.
Emma had been in his car countless times. She would feel nervous whenever she got in and couldn't put her mind at ease until she got down.
A high earner like Toddy could actually hire a chauffeur, but he didn't want a chauffeur as he liked to drive and enjoy the feeling of speeding along.
Hence, he didn't respond to Emma's advice.
Emma's cell phone rang at this moment.
She hurriedly took out her cell phone from her bag. When she looked at the caller ID, she straightened her expression.
It was from Dylan.
"President Coleman."
Emma respectfully answered the phone.
"Busy working?"
"Well, I'm done. I just got off work and I'm going home."
"Any plans for tomorrow?"
Emma thought Dylan was about to give her extra work on the weekend, so she said, "President Coleman, I usually sleep at home on weekends and rarely go outdoors, so I am free. If you have any work for me, just say the word. I'll complete it all."
Emma had no genuine friends.
Anyone who tried to befriend her had an ulterior motive, because she was Dylan's secretary and had Dylan's trust.
Emma didn't want to be used and was afraid she would accidentally reveal the company's secrets. Hence, she preferred not to have a confidant.
Perhaps this is the reason why Master Dylan trusts me. I am loyal to the company, after all.
"I'm taking my wife on vacation tomorrow. My wife doesn't have many friends at the moment. I'm afraid she will be bored, so if you don't have any plans, go to Toddy's door early tomorrow and ask him to take you with him."
Emma immediately envied Kendall.
President Coleman is an indifferent man. I have been by his side for many years and have never seen him being gentle and considerate to any woman. Miss Zorn has been chasing after President Coleman for years, but her patience has not been rewarded. Although President Evans didn't chase after him, everyone knows about her crush. President Coleman would only contact her when he needed to use her too, so she also didn't get anything from him.
"President Coleman, Mr. Heller's car ride is a scam. I can't ride it."
After a while, Dylan said, "Do you know the definition of shameless?"
Emma immediately understood.
"President Coleman, I'll be there tomorrow."
At that, Dylan ended the call.
Next to him, Kendall tilted her head as she looked at him.
"Dylan, I have Amy, Alice, and Jane. I'm not bored."
However, Dylan pinched her cheek. "Don't you like dramas?"
Kendall smiled in response. "You like it too, don't you?"
Dylan fondly nudged her nose as he murmured, "Don't say it out loud."
Then, Kendall grabbed his hand and threw herself into Dylan's arms. As Dylan tried to hug her back, his movements panicky, Kendall smiled triumphantly.
Dylan was annoyed and lowered his head to block her mouth to stop her from laughing.
Unaware that she was the main character in Kendall's drama, Emma put her phone back in her bag and looked ahead. The Porsche hadn't left yet, so she walked over and tapped on the window.
Toddy was puzzled, so he rolled down the window to ask, "What is it?"
"Get out of your car!" Emma ordered coldly.
Toddy was shocked.
What happened? Why is she speaking to me in a commanding tone?
"Miss Finley, do you understand what you are doing?"
"Toddy, get out of your car!"
Emma responded to Toddy with facts. Not only did she know what she was talking about, she even used a first name basis.
Toddy snorted as he unlocked the car and got out of it.
I'd like to see what she will do since she dares to speak to me using that tone.
However, he was dumbfounded when he got out of the car.
It was because Emma quickly climbed to the passenger's seat from the driver's seat, then fastened her seat belt and put her bag on her legs.
"You may start to drive now."
Upon hearing that, Toddy blinked his eyes in confusion.
"Miss Finley, I said I will charge you a lot for a ride." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Toddy said as he sat back in the car.
"Cut the crap and drive."
Toddy choked on his saliva.
Whatever gave her the courage to change her attitude?
Still, Toddy drove the car.
The both of them did not say anything along the way.
After ten minutes, they returned to their home.
Toddy stopped the car. However, he was not in a hurry to unlock the car, but reached out to Emma and rubbed his fingers together. He wanted her to pay him right now.
"I don't have any cash on me."
Toddy didn't expect that, and he countered, "Are you not going to pay?"
"I really didn't bring any cash."
Emma had an innocent look on her face.
President Coleman asked me to be shameless, so I did it.
Toddy stared at her for a long time before he realized he couldn't do anything about her. Hence, he
unlocked the car and said, "I'm thirsty. Get me a drink."
When Emma was about to move, she remembered the act and said, "Mr. Hellen, I didn't bring any cash."
"How about Paypal?"
"I don't have it."
Toddy was not happy to hear that. "Miss Finley, are you pulling my leg?"
"I don't care what you think about me. How about I give you something else as compensation for the fare?"
"What is it? I won't accept it if you're trying to repay me with your body. Hmph!"
Upon hearing that, Emma smiled. "Don't worry. I won't do that kind of thing."
Although Toddy was speaking the truth, he was still upset when Emma said no.
"Then, you…"
Toddy suddenly stopped talking.
He was stunned by Emma's action as he could only stare blankly at the pretty face that was getting closer.
Miss Finley's compensation turned out to be kissing me. I have to say that she really is courageous! How dare she kiss me without my consent?! That said, her lips are so soft. She won't mind if I lick her, right?
When Toddy was about to respond instinctively, Emma pulled away.
Hence, Toddy was annoyed, and the annoyance turned into anger.
"This is the first kiss I've held dear for over twenty years. It'll cover my fare, I suppose?"
Toddy was stunned.
The light kiss was over even before he could react. How can such a kiss offset the fare? That's ridiculous!
