Chapter 141

Stepping out of the restaurant, Eileen looked back to confirm no one was chasing after them. Breathing a sigh of relief, she patted Egbert on the shoulder.

“You’re so smart!”

Egbert just silently looked at her, not uttering a word.

At this time, there were still quite a few people around.

Egbert led her into a parked black sedan.

“Drive.”

The driver started the engine.

Eileen turned to chat with Egbert, only to find him looking gloomy and cold, seemingly pissed off.

Taken aback, Eileen kept silent. She wasn’t sure what was going on, so she decided to keep her mouth shut.

After a while, Eileen started to search in her pockets.

Egbert’s icy gaze moved to her.

Seeing Egbert looking at her, Eileen quickly explained, “I have blood on my hands, I want to clean them up…”

After looking at Eileen for a while, Egbert finally let out a sigh of relief.

He took two tissues from the box behind his seat, grabbed Eileen’s hand, and helped her clean up.

The blood on her hands had already dried, it needed water to wash off, so wiping it could only do so much.

Eileen noticed Egbert was still in a bad mood, so she remained quiet and let him wipe her hands.

After a while, Egbert broke the silence, “were you scared?”

Eileen instantly nodded.

“What scared you?” Egbert asked.
