Chapter 1389: Algerone Swain Has Some Abilities
Algerone Swain stood beside the passenger seat, patiently looking at her, thinking, you were worried enough to call me, so why are you pretending now? Belinda was caught in a dilemma, looking up at the sky the winter wind gradually growing colder.
"What's the fuss about?" Algerone Swain held the opened car door and bluntly said, "Just treat this like an Uber. You can pay me the fare!" Belinda met his gaze, feeling helpless, as the suitcase was already in his car.
In the taxi, Monica looked at the stalemate, feeling anxious. Why weren't they getting in the car yet? What were they doing? Hurry up and follow dad! Her dad really should be helping her a bit more. Monica wished she could use telepathy to push her mother into the car!
After a few seconds, she finally saw Belinda reluctantly getting in the car, and it seemed like she saw her dad's smile as well. She watched him close the car door, walk around the car and return to the driver's seat, and soon the car drove off.
"Miss, are you getting off or not?" The taxi driver looked back at her, "Don't delay me from taking other fares."
"No, just follow that car!" Monica pointed ahead, excited, wanting to see where her dad would take Belinda. "Alright." The taxi driver restarted the car, enjoying this slightly exciting tailing task.
In the car ahead, Belinda was once again sitting beside this man, feeling extremely uncomfortable. The strong woman in the business world seemed a bit lost, even her breathing became unnatural. She picked up her phone and searched for nearby hotels.
Without looking at her phone screen, Algerone Swain knew her intention. So, while driving, he said to her, "You don't need to search. All the nearby hotels are like this, not accepting guests starting today, and the rest are fully booked."
Belinda looked at him, disbelieving. Could it really be such a coincidence? He glanced at her and laughed, "Don't doubt it. Several hotels under my company are doing inventory checks. But don't worry, since you're in Arkpool City, I won't let you sleep on the streets."
So, was he going to take her to his place? Belinda directly protested, "Algerone Swain, I'm not going to your place! Let me out of the car!"
"Don't worry, I have extra houses that I can lend to you for free, not to live with me under the same roof," he reassured her.
"I don't need your house! I have friends here, I can stay with the Fritz family!"
"There's no need to bother them," he emphasized, "You're not staying just one night, they have their own family. It would be inconvenient for you to stay for a week or even longer."
The man's casual words alerted the woman. A week? That was a keyword; her daughter would also be leaving in a week. So, Belinda looked at him coldly, "Did you conspire with Monica to make me move out?"
"What are you talking about? Do I have that much power? It's not strange for hotels to do inventory checks, is it?" He drove the car and said to her, "I have a house just sitting there, why won't you live in it? I really don't understand you."
Belinda knew it was not good to bother her friends, but... her mind was in chaos for a moment, and she couldn't replace the words to refute him.
Soon, the car drove onto a quiet asphalt road, with similarly sized houses on both sides, surrounded by lush greenery and an elegant environment. The car finally stopped outside one of his properties, "We're here." Algerone Swain unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
He carried the suitcase to the living room, "I'll send the location to Monica, or maybe I'll pick her up." He looked back at the woman who had just gotten out of the car.
