Chapter 6

Eloy couldn't understand why she was sitting next to Felix again, and this time he was driving the car himself.

She was wary of him spying on her through the car's rearview mirror while watching his movements through the rearview mirror. Finally, their eyes finished meeting for a split second before she scrambled to avert her gaze.

It was so awkward, but she didn't know if it was just her illusion, she always felt that she would always be extra unnatural when she was with him. She wiped the sweat off her palms, then she mentally recited the score, and after a few paragraphs she really relaxed a bit.

"Do you have something to say?"

The baritone voice that could rattle her nerves sounded again, and her heartstrings, which had finally calmed down, fluttered again.

"No." She replied decisively, and then she regretted it. Was there really nothing she wanted to take the opportunity to say?

Luckily, he didn't give her a hard time and laughed gently twice before picking up another topic.

"Miss Eloy should be graduating soon, do you have any plans after that?"

Of course she had plans, although she never wanted to make concessions to Klem and Bird, she had him in her life plan, it was just a pity that she met someone who didn't deserve her.

Felix did not know this, but he could vaguely guess something. He was six years older than her, with more life experience and more resources, and he would never put love on a high priority, or even change his original life path because of it.

So after he briefly associated with what happened to Eloy, but he couldn't be very sure, was it the Bird boy that made her so sad? He felt sorry for her, her life simply did not have to encounter such things.

But he also thought that his love and even marriage was his own business, and the Blaine family had nothing to do with it.

If she was free to fall in love, there was no big problem to be sentimental about love once in a while, although he still didn't agree that the object of her love was Klem...

The vehicle slowly pulled into the auto repair store, which had a fully automated car wash line, so he and she didn't have to get out of the car, just sit inside and enjoy a quiet moment.

He took out the coffee that was placed on the passenger seat and handed her a cup.

As if she hadn't expected such preparation, she took the cup of coffee with both hands, still with a bit of rusty politeness, but the surprise was more.

The advice Ethan gave was good, he was top notch as a secretary, and Felix didn't think he would be very good at something like this.

"Since you want to continue your education, Miss Eloy, don't you want to add one more job?"

"What?" He thought she understood the meaning of his words, but she chose to play dumb given that she didn't know how to answer him.

But he watched her innocent eyes blink up and down with some bewilderment. It was like that time when he called out her name, but she was really drunk and only opened her eyes wide in bewilderment.

His heart softened, so in a rare move, he repeated one more time, "Go ahead and teach Allen to play the piano, I'll pay twice the price."

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I'm afraid I don't have time." She suddenly calmed down again, and surprisingly stopped avoiding his eyes, her bright and beautiful eyes gazing at him, but showing the idea of disobeying him.

"You have no time for Allen's lessons, but teach piano lessons to the young lady of Mr. Weir's house on White Road?"

"No..."

She was visibly flustered, but he wouldn't give her a chance to catch her breath.

"Allen's grade examination isn't as high as Miss Weir's, so if it's because he's not taking his lessons seriously or has disobeyed you in some way, you can let me know and I'll bring him to your home to apologize."

This was of course a situation that Eloy could not have foreseen, how could things have turned out this way? The good thing was that she soon reacted to it.

"It's not Allen's problem, he's a very good student. But I like Mary better, and I only have enough time to teach one student, that's why I made this decision."

The car had been hosed down, and soon it was time to wipe the rollers off the car, and soon she would be able to make excuses to get out of here, but before that, she needed to arrange a mutually satisfactory outcome to this matter.

The cappuccino in her hand was almost out of temperature, and now it was particularly sweet to drink. He did not know that this type of taste for women she did not like, she liked black coffee, and it did not matter if it was bitter.

"Weir's family will leave the country soon, haven't they talked to you about the next course? So you don't need to find the next student either, just keep teaching Allen and get double the salary as my compensation."

" Compensation for what?" The word irritated her, and her voice suddenly rose, and all the pent-up discontent in her heart came out regardless.

"Also, Mr. Felix, did you have someone investigate me, I'm just an ordinary college girl, I haven't done anything bad, even if I have offended you, it's never my problem alone, then why do you refuse to let me go?"

By the time her output was over, she expected in her mind that she must have angered this president. Who would have the guts to lecture him like that? He managed a huge company with a billionaire's fortune.

Those who disobeyed him still didn't know what would happen to them? Would he be so angry that he would ask her to get out of the car now? She peeked at the workers outside cleaning the windows, would they feel puzzled then.

"The meaning of the compensation is that due to our problems, resulting in your early departure, a double salary is to hope that you can see this sincerity. As for the investigation or whatever, I won't do that. My social circle is a lot bigger than you think, and since you serve the rich, it's inevitable that I'll meet customers who know each other."

Felix was so calm, there was no anger in his words, which on the contrary made her feel scared. His attitude was not like the rumors at all, she did not believe that this was his special treatment of her, then there was only one other possibility, that was, she had something he wanted.

What could it be about? She needed to find a general direction, and also let her not be completely ignorant and used, and she hated being used.

"Do you know my last name? I'm probably still not comfortable giving Allen lessons."

"That's okay."

The cleaning of the vehicle was completely finished, and he answered her question casually as he pulled out.

"What does the fight between these two families have to do with you? I'm the one who hired you, so if anything goes wrong, just leave it to me."

Eloy only listened to the first half of the sentence, and she thought she had gotten the answer.
