Chapter 67
At half past five in the evening, Dixy Land shut its door punctually.
"I haven't even played enough!" Heidi leaned against the car window as she looked at the enormous Dixy statue by the gate with a pout on her face.
After seeing her disappointment, Jacob felt sorry for her. "If you really want to play more, I can buy Dixy Land for you to play as much as you want. How about that?"
Heidi immediately stood up with excitement sparkling in her eyes. "Are you really going to do that?"
"Tsk! Of course, he's lying to you!" Sitting next to her, Dana pursed her lips as she played her mobile game. "Buy Dixy Land? He's just boasting!"
"You'll need lots and lots of money!" Heidi's face fell in disappointment.
"Can you stop underestimating others, young lady?" Jerry, who was sitting in the co-driver's seat, shot a sideway glance at Dana.
With that coming from her idol, she immediately nodded obediently and turned into a fangirl. "You are right, my master. We should never underestimate ourselves. In the future, I'm going to be a black platinum master who's respected by everyone as well!"
"This girl is hopeless!" Jerry pouted after retracting his gaze.
Meanwhile, Jacob also rolled his eyes at Jerry before saying, "You're no better than her."
Jerry turned around and winked at Dana. "Do you still remember what I told you just now? If I'm satisfied with you, I will help you out in the game until you reach the black platinum league!"
"Of course!" She nodded vehemently.
Jacob smiled and shook his head before he picked up a call through his car's audio system.
Once the call connected, Moira's annoyed voice immediately rang. "If you still don't pick up the phone, I'm about to call the police."
"I'm sorry; I missed it." His eyebrows slightly arched as he was maneuvering the steering wheel.
He knew that she would finish work by 3.30 PM, but in order to let Heidi play as much as she could, he did not pick up the phone.
Now that he could get some information from Dana – since he spent some effort getting closer to her – it was fine to just ignore Moira's calls.
"Look at the time now! Bring them back to me!" With that rude instruction, she hung up the phone decisively.
"How dare she speak to you in such a tone! How could she reach a higher position at work with her attitude like this?" Jerry frowned.
With a glare from Jacob, he immediately shut his mouth up.
At around 10 minutes after six, they finally arrived after they passed the final traffic light before Moira's
place.
As soon as Heidi got out of the car, she charged to Moira, who was standing near the gate of her neighborhood. "Aunt Moira, I had so much fun today! Mr. Mooney got a huge Dixy plushie for me!" With that, she looked in the direction from where they arrived. "When will the car arrive with him?"
"What car? And what Dixy?" Moira asked impatiently. "I think you had so much fun that you are incoherent!"
After giving her a lecture, she raised her head and shot a glance at Jerry, who looked like an average Joe, before she frowned at Jacob. "Mr. Mooney, do you know how worried I was when I couldn't reach you?"
"I'm sorry. I'll take note next time." Jacob nodded before he replied humbly.
Jerry's face darkened with a sharp flicker across his eyes.
He's the Warlord of Scarlet Dragons! Even when he faced tens of thousands of troops, he never apologized!
Even so, Moira did not buy it. "Not just that – I hope this will never happen again!"
With that, she held Heidi's hand and glared at Dana before she berated, "Why are you still standing there? Follow me back now! You're also another heartless person – why didn't you pick up your mom's call? You made me the subject of her grumbles!"
Ah, so this is also one of the reasons for her annoyance! With that thought in mind, Jerry pouted. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
