The atmosphere is stifling inside the car. No one speaks.
Paul peeks into the rear-view mirror at Kendric George and Anne, shaking his head. The little girl is too ungrateful. President George never takes a woman back to his mansion. Anne is the only first. Today, the president set aside time for her to have lunch together, but she dared to stand up.
Kendric's face is livid and he exudes a bloodthirsty smell from head to foot. Around him, it seems as if the air would be a few degrees lower, making people tremble.
The backseat is spacious, and Anne tries to shrink herself as far away from Kendric as possible. She is now a bit regretful about her impulse to annoy Kendric. She knows the consequence.
But there is no regret medicine in the world.
Anne gives Kendric a furtive glance with the corner of her eyes and decides to apologize later. After all, dad is lying in his bed waiting for surgery. She needs Kendric's sponsored surgery fees.
