Corinne had no time to deal with Jason, so she assumed he was joking and went back to work.
Unexpectedly, Jason really did wait for her and Francine in front of Holden Group when they got off work.
Corinne and Francine were about to get into their own chauffeured car when a car honked at them from behind.
They both turned to look behind them and saw Jason peeking out his head from the rolled-down window, waving and beaming happily at them.
Francine instinctively frowned when she saw him. "What's he doing here again?"
Corinne was frowning too. "He must have a lot of free time on his hands."
"Hmph! We should just ignore him. Come on, let's get into our car," said Francine, pulling Corinne into the car. Then to the driver, she urged, "Drive the car away now! We need to lose the car behind us."
"Yes, Miss Francine!" said the driver.
However, before he could even step on the accelerator, Jason suddenly drove his car toward their front, effectively blocking their path. It was so sudden that the two cars nearly crashed into each other.
Livid, Francine was about to rush out of the car to give Jason an earful when he got down from his own car and proceeded to get into the front passenger seat of their car.
Francine had never met such a shameless person in her life. Understandably, her tone was not the friendliest when she shouted, "Are you crazy?! Blocking our car with your car is already ridiculous enough, and now you got into our car without us asking?"
"Yes, Miss Corinne."
The driver drove around Jason's car and toward the kindergarten.
Francine was not happy at failing to chase Jason out of the car. She sidled up and said, "Corinne, why are you letting Jason tag along?"
"The kindergarten must be letting the kids out now, so we don't have time to waste on him," said Corinne absent-mindedly.
Francine pouted.
