Ex’s Ambition

Jack finally let go of Anne, he could not bear to see Anne get so afraid like that. Jack doesn't want Anne to be traumatized again.

"Get up, don't let anyone see us like this in the car," whispered Jack softly when he realized that Anne was closing her eyes tightly.

Hearing Jack's words made Anne open her eyes quickly. Her face looked like a boiled crab now. Without a word, Anne immediately sat back in an upright position. She even straightened the car seat that Jack had previously put on.

Anne was stammering, "I… I have to get back to work, you better go home."

"No, I'll be here waiting for you..."

"My working hours are still long Jack. I still have to work for another three more hours. Are you okay waiting that long?" Anne asked quickly, she deliberately mentioned the remaining working hours in the hope that Jack would think twice if he wanted to wait for her.
