She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 598

Sybil felt utterly humiliated and awkward, but the sight of Karl pulling up in his luxurious Maybach sent a massive shockwave through her.

"Need a ride, Sybil?" Karl rolled down his window, smiling warmly, acting as if he hadn't noticed Thane's livid expression.

Sybil looked at the gleaming luxury car, then at Thane beside her, who didn't even have a ride and was only capable of throwing a helpless tantrum. The scales in her heart instantly tipped to the extreme.

She made her decision almost immediately.

"Mr. Karl, that would be wonderful." She flashed an apologetic look at Thane. "Thane, it's too far from the city. Let's just take Mr. Karl's car back."

Karl also looked at Thane. "For Sybil's sake, I suppose I can give a broke kid like you a lift."

"Broke kid? Who are you calling broke?!" Thane had never been insulted like this before and swung his fist toward the driver's side. Sybil's patience for Thane was completely gone. She grabbed his arm and snapped, "Are you done throwing your little childish tantrum?! Karl is the only one willing to give us a ride! Do you plan on walking all the way back?!"

"I'll just call one of my buddies to pick me up," Thane said defensively.

He had other friends. Unfortunately for him, one of them drove past at that exact moment, merely giving a quick wave before speeding off, leaving Thane in a cloud of dust without stopping for a second.

Sybil's voice grew sharp. "Buddies? Thane, are you coming with me or not?"

Pushed into a corner, a reluctant Thane had no choice but to get into the car.

Once again, he felt that his current downfall—being poor and looked down upon—was entirely because of Sybil. And now she didn't even understand his grievances. Was his devotion really worth it...?

For once, he sat in the car in complete silence.
