?Chapter 329:
Afterward, he made his way around to the driver’s side, moving with purpose, his eyes shing a mocking look at the stunned Rnd. With a sly grin, Chris climbed into the car, mmed the door, and sped off without a second thought.
Rnd’s hands balled into fists, Maia’s words ringing in his head.
“Handsome… please me…”
Was he not attractive enough? Was he unable to please her?
A surge of anger bubbled up in Rnd’s chest.
He spun around, but the car had already disappeared into the distance.
Inside the car, an uneasy silence hung between them.
Chris’s arm rested casually on the wheel as he drove. Every now and then, a small smile tugged at his lips, hinting at his good mood.
Maia felt the silence stretching on too long. Looking at the unfamiliar car, she asked, “Why the change? What happened to your boss’s car?”
“I didn’t change cars. I bought this one,” Chris answered with ease.
Maia blinked, surprised. “How did you afford it?”
Chris steered the wheel smoothly, his voice casual. “You gave me a million dors. I spent it on this car.”
Maia frowned, clearly confused. “A million dors can buy this car?” Did he really think she was clueless about cars? The price of this car clearly far exceeded one million.
Chris’s face didn’t change as he answered quietly, “It’s used. Not too pricey.”
But the car’s condition… it hardly looked used at all.

Maia chose not to push it. After a brief pause, she asked, “So what about your job as a driver?”
“Well, since you’ve decided to be my sugar mama, I don’t see why I’d need a job,” he said with a grin. “From now on, I’m your personal chauffeur!”
Maia was left speechless.
She had only joked about him being a “kept man,” but he had actually taken it seriously! And now he was acting like it made perfect sense, as if it waspletely justified? He’d just walked away from a solid job as a driver like it was nothing? Chris was asid-back and reckless as theye. If she had known, she never would’ve given him that much money!
Seeing Maia stay silent, Chris shot her a sideways nce. Then, he asked, “Why did you hide our rtionship from him earlier? Still keeping him around as your backup?”
Maia was left even more speechless.
Rnd was Drakrnire’s bestwyer, while Chris was just a smooth-talking yboy. At least Chris had a job once. Now, he did nothing.
Maia sighed deeply and said, “Do you even know who he is? If he finds out about us and sees how you’re acting, we’ll be divorced in no time.” If Rnd ever dug up dirt on Chris, he could easily lock him up, not to mention get them divorced.
Chris nodded, unfazed. “Understood.”
Of course, he knew exactly who Rnd was. But that wasn’t the issue. The issue was Maia worrying that their marriage might be at risk. The thought made Chris’s lips curl into a small smile. In a carefree voice, he asked, “Where are we headed?”
“The MCN building.”
“Got it.”
Chris drove smoothly toward the MCN building, right in the city center. “When will you be finished? I’lle grab you,” Chris asked as he backed into a parking spot.
