Chapter 1438
The few men next to Cindy saw the white Land Rover parked nearby and knew
something was wrong, so they didn’t dare advance. This wasn’t their turf, and they
would be in trouble if they offended someone.
They picked up the man that was down and left.
Without her backers, Cindy was a lot less intimidating and ran away too.
Elaine was still processing what happened when the man helped her up. “Ms. Xavier,
are you alright?”
She looked at him, stunned. “Aren’t you...”
She was familiar with him. It was the manager of the cafe.
He smiled and replied, “I was in the club with my boss, and we saw you when we came
out.”
The man in the Land Rover walked over in his casual suit with a black turtleneck top.

would make it look hollow.

“Are you alright?”
Elaine finally recovered and smiled. “I’m fine, thanks to you.”
The man frowned when he smelled the alcohol. “It’s not a good idea to drink and drive. Where do you live? I’ll send
you.” He then gave the keys to the manager.
The manager took the keys and got into the Land Rover.
Elaine sobered up after what happened, but her head was aching. She could drive back, but she was afraid the
police might arrest her for a DUE Thus, she accepted the offer.
After getting into the car, she noticed that the car was spacious and cool looking. “Thank you. Please send me to
the Xavier mansion at South Lake Avenue.
The manager nodded, then started driving.
Elaine had a splitting headache on the way back until the man handed her a sealed water bottle. “Drink up. It’ll
help.”
“Thanks.”
She took it and twisted the cap. “what a coincidence that you were at the club too.”
He didn’t reply, but the manager smiled and said, “ That was indeed a coincidence. He went over because there
was a meeting.”
Ian Summer smiled. “Why were you there then?”
“To speak with some clients.” she threw her head back and drank from the bottle.
She drank half the bottle and burped.
Ian turned his face to look at her and chuckled. “You need to speak to clients too?”
Elaine looked into his eyes. “How did you know who I am?”
The carriage was dark, so the outside lights lighted his face on and off.
He looked away but answered truthfully, “You were at Beyond Tech. I’ve heard of you.”
“I think you’re quite an interesting person.”

They looked at each other, and the atmosphere changed in the dark car. Unfortunately,
it was ruined by Elaine’s sudden burp.
He laughed. “You should drink more water.”
Elaine was ashamed, but she could only drink to ease the tension.
The car stopped in front of the mansion.
Elaine got out, waved at them, and walked into the yard.
The white Land Rover finally disappeared into the night.
