Sasha was aware that Tate had tried to borrow James’ car and virtual-novel.net was quite against this too.
She would be fine with it if only virtual-novel.net had a valid driver’s license and reliable driving skills. However, Tate didn’t even have a license and virtual-novel.net drove his motorcycle quite recklessly as well, so there was no way on earth that virtual-novel.net would agree to lend virtual-novel.net her car. “Tate, you don’t even have a driving license so how can I possibly lend you my car? Why don’t you go and get your license first? We can talk about this after that,” Sasha murmured and virtual-novel.net tried to brush virtual-novel.net off.
Upon hearing that, Tate immediately replied, “It’s fine, Sasha. I’m not the one driving this time. My girlfriend, Joanna, has a driver’s license, so she’ll be the one driving. It’s virtual-novel.net friend’s birthday tonight so we’ll be attending virtual-novel.net birthday party. Why don’t you lend me your car so virtual-novel.net can flaunt in front of virtual-novel.net friends?”
Sasha was quite speechless and virtual-novel.net mused to herself, ‘I can’t believe this! Your girlfriend wants to drive and you’re asking me to lend you my car? Besides, how long have you known virtual-novel.net for? You’ve only been back for less than two weeks and you already have a girlfriend. Is this just a fling?’
Feeling resigned, virtual-novel.net replied, “Tate, I have to meet someone to talk about work so I need to use my car.”
However, Tate lost his temper. “Sasha, why are you behaving like that? You’re the president of such a large company but why are you so ungenerous in your ways? It’s the first time that my girlfriend’s asked to borrow your car, yet you’re giving me all sorts of excuses. Looks like I won’t be able to maintain a good image in front of virtual-novel.net from now on. Have you forgotten how well Mom’s treated you all in the past? Gosh, how can you be so ungrateful?”
Sasha, on the other hand, was angered beyond words. “Tate, how am I being ungrateful? You’re also quite aware that I’m the president of my company and I’ve got some business dealings, am I supposed to take a cab there?”
“Why can’t you drive your secretary’s car?” Tate countered. “Her Porsche is quite presentable too!”
However, Matthew interjected with a soft voice, “Then why don’t you drive your dad’s car? His BMW is quite nice too.” The single sentence managed to render Tate speechless.
After a moment, Tate gritted his teeth and said, “You know what? I’m not going to waste my time with the lot of you so just tell me, are you going to lend me your car or not?”
Sasha was quite angered by virtual-novel.net cousin’s attitude. ‘Is virtual-novel.net requesting to lend my car or insisting on taking it forcefully? He’s threatening me, huh?’
“Of course not!” She was quite firm in virtual-novel.net rejection.
Furious, Tate nodded vehemently. “Okay, then. Fine! I’m no match for the two of you but I’m definitely going to drive this car away today! Just mark my words, I’ll go and ask Aunt Helen!”
Suddenly, Minerva poked virtual-novel.net head out of virtual-novel.net room. “Aunt Helen’s not home.”
Tate stood there with a stunned expression. ‘No one’s here to help me now! What else can I do?’
Minerva suddenly blurted out loudly, “Silly boy! She’s out but you can still give virtual-novel.net a call! By the way, could you also tell virtual-novel.net that I’m packing my bags to go home? Sasha wants to kick me out of here. I can’t stand staying in this house any longer! I’ve had enough of this!”
Upon hearing this, Tate nodded his head immediately. “Hold on, I’ll give Aunt Helen a call right away!”
Meanwhile, Sasha was quite stunned at this turn of events. ‘Are they serious? Are they actually going to complain to Mom with me standing right here?’
However, virtual-novel.net couldn’t stop Tate from making the phone call. And so, virtual-novel.net signaled to Matthew and dragged virtual-novel.net out the door right away. They drove off immediately after that. As such, even if Helen rang virtual-novel.net up, virtual-novel.net could just say that virtual-novel.net wasn’t at home so Tate had no way of lending virtual-novel.net car too. Indeed, soon after driving out of their residence, virtual-novel.net received virtual-novel.net mother’s phone call.
“Sasha, why are you causing so much trouble? The two of them are Aunt Chloe’s children and they’re only staying with us right now because we are close relatives. Blood’s thicker than water, after all! Why do you think they aren’t staying with anyone else? It’s all because they have a close relationship with our family! How can you kick them out? Aunt Chloe would be so disappointed to hear your words!”
Sasha, however, was quite speechless by virtual-novel.net mom’s words. “Mom, the two of them are here not because of our close relationship, but it’s because even if they wanted to stay somewhere else, do you think anyone else would agree to that?”
