Chapter 277 A Familiar Figure
Norman sounded a little resentful. He was driving particularly slowly.
As for Gareth, after he got out of the car, he wasn’t in a rush to open the door in the passenger’s seat.
Linda’s expression was complicated. She took a breath in and opened the door herself. One of her legs
quickly stepped out.
Gareth went up to her and stopped her in an instant. “Wait.”
Linda’s eyes flashed. She looked at the man subconsciously with some disbelief in her eyes. She said in
a trembling voice, “Are you shunning me because that night, those men almost…”
Her face was pale, and she looked at Gareth seeming as though she had tears in her eyes.
Gareth wrinkled his brows slightly. “Don’t let your imagination run wild.”
Linda’s lashes trembled, and her tears suddenly fell. “I know that… I’m not worthy of you. But on that

She couldn’t go on.
Gareth furrowed his brows. “I’m not trying to shun you. I’m afraid that you’re traumatized from what
happened that day, so I’m not approaching you.”
Astonishment flickered across Linda’s eyes. She had just looked down, only to look up abruptly. She
asked hopefully, “Really?”
Gareth was feeling conflicted. He was feeling indescribably fidgety. He thought that it was only right for
him to carry her to the hospital when she had problems since she was his savior. But now, he didn’t even
want to touch her.
“Mm.” Gareth nodded with ease.
Linda suddenly came to her senses, and she was moved. “Garry, you’re so considerate.”
Gareth looked away. He didn’t want to look at her eyes that were feeling touched. It seemed as though
he was feeling guilty for lying to her.
Linda hesitated for a moment before saying, “Actually, I don’t…”
Gareth nodded indifferently but didn’t carry her. Instead, he looked at Norman’s car impatiently. It wasn’t
even that far. Why was he driving so slowly?
It was as though Norman could feel Gareth’s ferocious, slightly impatient gaze. He didn’t dare stop any
longer and sped up at once.
Rose’s expression changed. “What are you doing? Didn’t you want to go slow!”
“I can’t go any slower. Can’t you see that Gareth is impatient? He just doesn’t want to carry Linda today.
Did he injure his hand?”
“Huh…?” Rose looked at Gareth’s hand subconsciously, but they were too far away, and she couldn’t
see anything. She said obliviously, “Perhaps he did. If he did hurt his wrist or his arm, he can’t carry
Linda.”

he’s afraid that we would overthink. It’s fine, I’ll carry my beloved daughter.”
Norman got out of the car after that.
He walked over quickly and smiled. “Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Wickam. I received some good wine
recently. Why don’t you stay and try it out, Mr. Wickam?”
“I still have things to do at the office. I’ll try it next time.” Gareth’s voice was flat. He didn’t pay attention to
anything else. Seeing that Norman had carried Linda out, he closed the car door and drove away.
But before he left, he saw that Linda was reluctant to part with him, but she still slowly decided to support
his decisions.
Gareth had complicated feelings. He stepped on the gas but when he reached a red light, his car
stopped slowly. But… he never thought that the car behind him would suddenly rush forward.
Only the crashing sound was heard.
Bang!
Gareth’s face darkened immediately.
But when he saw a familiar figure get down from the white BMW behind him, his wrinkled brows were
suddenly relaxed.
