Chapter 226 The Pier

“I’m going to meet someone.”

“Is there anything you are hiding from me?”

Lamont immediately stopped the car and looked at her seriously.

“Mr. Byron, please conduct yourself. This is my business. You should stop asking.” Amelie was on the defensive.

She averted her stubborn eyes from him and was about to get out of the car.

How could Lamont give up so easily?

“No, I’ll be with you!”

“You!” Displeased, Amelie was about to question him when the car had already started, which took her by surprise.

“What are you doing?”

“Aren’t you going to the pier? We’re going now, and it will be too late if we delay.”

Lamont said with a blank face, stepping on the gas.

“I said I didn’t need you to be with me. Why are you so stubborn?”

Amelie nursed a grievance. But Lamont was driving so fast that she felt too scared to say anything.

Lamont did not answer.

He drove very fast, and it took only ten minutes for the half–hour journey.

Gradually, they arrived at the pier. After the car stopped, Amelie quickly opened the window to breathe in the fresh air.

Now she just felt dizzy and very uncomfortable.

“Get out of the car.”

Lamont got out of the car without responding to her.

Damn it!

Amelie cursed inwardly and then got out of the car.

Ignoring Lamont, she looked for the ship according to the address on the text message.

Lamont quietly followed behind her, like a bodyguard.
