"Okay baby, I promise to marry you as soon as I got everything prepared." Alfred consoled Carrie again
and again. The sweet begging sound on the phone finally stopped.
During this time, Carrie kept pestering Alfred. She intentionally seized every opportunity to talk about
their marriage. If it were in the past, Alfred would arrange a grand wedding and marry Carrie
immediately, but now...
Alfred blinked his slightly sore eyes, looking at the smog-filled weather ahead and feeling even more
depressed.
"Lauren, when you were alive, you refused to get a divorce and block between me and Carrie. When
you died, you stuck in my heart like a thorn. Why are you so annoying?"
Alfred thought of this name which was like a taboo. He muttered, feeling distressed.
"Mr. Kent, the things you ordered have already been prepared." Another call came. Alfred answered
the phone. Hearing the news, he curved his lips slightly, "I'm sure to get this deal. Those who dare to
compete with me aren't born yet!"
Too much pride would lead to failure. This saying once again worked for Alfred.
At this time, it was heavy smog outside. The searchlights of the car could only see a blur. Fortunately,
there were not many vehicles on the highway. Alfred was driving fast, then bent over to pick up
something. As he got up again, his head already hit the airbag. Before he could fully react, his car had
rotated.
"Damn!" Alfred, who regained his composure, realized that someone had hit his car and made him hurt
his forehead. He couldn't help but mutter a curse.
Alfred moved the steering wheel again, only to find that the car could no longer move. When he got out
of the car, one of the tires was sunken in the ground.
If it were merely a light strike, Alfred wouldn't bother to deal with it because he had something urgent to
do. He didn't expect that his car would be scrapped. It was estimated that his trip would be delayed.
Alfred was furious.
Striding over to the car that caused the accident, Alfred could vaguely see the two women who had
caused the accident through the heavy smog and the car windows.
"Ladies, you hit my car." Alfred suppressed the anger of his favorite car being destroyed and knocked
on the window of that car.
"You hit my car and delayed my trip. We need to negotiate!" Alfred thought that the people in the car
were worried about him causing trouble, so he explained again.
But the people in the car still didn't respond. Alfred couldn't help being a little annoyed. Were they going
to play dumb?
"You guys."
When Alfred was about to lose his temper, the car door suddenly opened. Alfred found two women in
black suits sitting inside. One of them was wearing sunglasses. The waves covered most of her face,
making it difficult to see what she looked like. But the temperament of her body indicated that this
woman was not simple.
The graceful woman waved her hand, leaned over, and whispered a few words to the woman next to
her. Then the woman who looked like an assistant immediately got out of the car.
"Excuse me, sir, how much compensation do you need?" The assistant was very respectful to the
woman in black, but when she saw Alfred, she became aloof. Even her apology sounded plain.
Alfred, who had always been taken seriously, was never treated like that. He immediately scolded,
"Can you afford to pay?" Before he had finished, the woman who had been sitting in the car suddenly
pushed the car door and got out. She wore all black and had beautiful facial features, looking rather
aloof. Since she got out of the car, her expression was extremely indifferent. She raised her brows
slightly when she walked to Alfred.
Alfred suddenly swallowed his words quickly when he was about to curse.
"Who are you?"
After a long pause, Alfred asked. The woman in front of him looked cold and glamorous, but she also
seemed familiar. Alfred couldn't tell exactly how he felt. He just thought that she was like an old friend
who he had met before.
The woman in black curved her lips at this moment, showing an inexplicable smile. Then she took out a
stack of cash from her bag.
"If this isn't enough, I got more!" The woman's voice was cold as if she was mocking him.
Alfred looked at the stack of cash in his hand and he couldn't believe it. He was actually fooled by a
woman through her money. He should have been angry, but the moment he saw the woman's deep
eyes, he couldn't speak.
"Who are you?" Alfred was amazed and started racking his brain. He saw a lot of women with money,
good looks, and great temperament, but he had never seen a woman who combined these three
characteristics. Moreover, he always felt that he knew this woman.
"Hehe, I'll see you soon!" The woman turned around and returned to the car at a brisk pace, leaving
those words before she left.
Looking intently at the car driving away, Alfred stood beside his broken car, lost in thought for a long
time.
Why did that woman resemble Lauren so much?
