Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife The Twins Are Not Yours novel Chapter 347

Chapter 347: The New Driver

"Athena, you are not going with them? I thought..." Rodney’s words dried up in his mouth when he was met with unfriendly glares from both Aiden and Ewan.

What had he done wrong now? He checked himself, his words.

Firstly, he had been left like a destitute while the others had flocked into a phone booth he had watched, wide-eyed, transporting them downwards... to an underground facility? He wasn’t sure.

Seeing the sophisticated attires and weapons most of the men had adorned, he knew he had walked into some complicated nonsense. Only the amount of money Aiden had proposed as his monthly salary; after bombarding him with questions, after giving him the details of his job—just drive her!—had kept him rooted in the madness.

If not, why would he be involved with gangsters and whatnot? 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He loved his life! And maybe... he loved his boss.

Although he didn’t think that was enough to sacrifice his life and ambitions. Not with those men looking at him as if he had farted.

Were they her husbands? He hoped not.

He was curious about his boss, whom he had read about—after the phone call that he could see now was beginning to change his life—she was a doctor and a businesswoman. And now something else, from what he could see; no way were all these bulky fellows government-approved.

Rodney however hoped that these men wouldn’t stop his quest. He raised an eyebrow daringly when they refused to look away, when Athena remained silent, watching the others who were transporting cartons of things he wasn’t aware of—things he prayed were not drugs or illegal—into vans.

He bit his lip, getting annoyed when a fellow next to Ewan scoffed. Who was that?

The fellow had sat beside him in the car that had brought them here, but the male had never said a word to him, not even when Aiden was bombarding him with questions. So why the hell was he scoffing?!

"If you have something to say, get it out!" Rodney finally lost it.

This time, he got Athena’s attention—Athena, who had been lost in her own thoughts, unaware of the tension going on between the men.

"What’s going on here?" She asked, darting her gaze between them, eyes centering on Zane because he seemed to be the latest obsession of her new driver.

"They don’t like me." Rodney answered curtly, frowning when Athena chuckled.

What was wrong with these people? Rodney began to doubt his wisdom of accepting this job, no matter the bogus salary that had been offered him; an amount he wouldn’t have made in that dark, primitive excuse for a town.

"Zane hardly hates anyone." Athena said, hissing softly when Zane winked at her.

Rodney committed the name to memory. He would be doing a lot of research later, on the whole lot of them, once he was done with his share of the job today. After all, the job came with better accommodation and utilities, enough time and resources to unwind.

"But really... why are you scaring my new driver?" Athena asked Aiden, avoiding Ewan’s gaze—the memory of his devotion-filled eyes for her, haunting her.

"I think it’s because he addressed you informally, considering his position." Florence answered, a smile in her voice, her hand wound around Old Mr. Thorne’s waist.

"Oh..." And Athena turned to Rodney. "Do you have a problem addressing me formally?"
