Chapter 289 - Chapter 289: Bribe

Erick chuckled. Then Elle turned to look at him, pouting.

"Ali! I am Ali, not Elle." Elle corrected him.

Erick snorted and just continued driving. Elle felt relieved. Erick didn't insist on bringing up the topic of Elle.

Erick stole glances at her from time to time. He even slowed down his driving, prolonging their journey going back to the headquarters. Elle noticed what he was trying to do but she didn't mind it as she just went along with him.

"Thank you for today." Erick softly said to her.

'Thank you for staying alive and coming back.' This was what Erick truly meant by saying that.

"I should be the one thanking you. After all, you were the one who paid for our bills."

Erick let out a husky laugh.
