Chapter 70: Cool Ride
Chapter 70: Cool Ride
Suddenly, the dining table atmosphere inside the pizza parlor became extremely awkward ever since Seth and Iven appeared.
Seth chose to avoid moving from time to time unless he had to get and put some food on Melody's plate using his fork.
Seth's movements were as smooth as if he and Melody had been married for a long time, without a single hint of discomfort.
Iven felt a little jealous as he stood on the side.
He had known Seth for so many years.
If it were him, Seth would just let him get his food, just as how he would not even initiate to pour him a glass of wine.
'That hurts!' Lance felt a little uncomfortable as he watched how overly attentive Seth was towards Melody, trying to please her continuously. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Lance had a feeling that his uncle would only cheat on Melody.
'Boss, do not be fooled by that jerk!'
No matter how much he wanted to shout and warn Melody, he could only do it inside his head.
Unfortunately, the jerk Lance was pertaining to was his uncle.
No matter how brave he was, he did not dare to make his uncle mad.
The only thing he could do to drown his grief was to drink all alone.
Clifford noticed that his friend was not in the mood.
The others ate until their stomachs got full, but Lance ate only a little.
Finally, Clifford gathered all the courage he had and told Lance, "I'm almost done eating.
I have not finished my homework for the night.I will excuse myself and leave first.
Right when Clifford excused himself, the others from the dining table said the same excuses to leave.
Seth glanced at Melody.
When he saw that she had already put her utensils down, he nodded at her generously and agreed to leave.
Lance was about to pay for what they ate, but the crew informed him that Austin had already paid for everything.
Lance felt slightly annoyed as he could not pay for the bill because Austin had already paid for it as Seth instructed him to do so.But what else could he do?
'I have to keep myself together!'
When everyone reached the door, Seth suddenly paused for a moment.He then faced Melody and said, "I will send you home"
The way he said it seemed to be usual, as if everything had always been like this.
However, Lance interrupted even before Melody could utter a word, "She went her by herself.I guess she could go back home on her own too."
Seth could not help but raise his eyebrows as he looked at Melody.She pointed something at the parking area.
It was the black Harley bike that looked cool and different from other luxury cars.
Iven also saw what Melody was pointing.He had not expected a gentle and lovely girl like Melody to be interested in such a wild vehicle.
lven could not help but release a heavy sigh.
"That's pretty cool!"
Seth raised his eyebrows once again and looked at Melody.
The expression on his handsome face did not change.
"I will still drive you home!"
Melody slowly looked at him from head to toe.
Seth just walked out of the office, so he was still dressed in his work attire.
He seemed like a perfect business leader because of his silver-gray suit with a slim black shirt inside.
This clothing style was suitable for sitting in a top commercial vehicle, holding a glass of red wine, and looking down on everyone.
What he was wearing was not suitable for riding a motorcycle.
Seth immediately understood the meaning behind her gaze on him.
Seth took off his coat and handed it to Austin, who was standing beside him.
The buttons on his collar down to his chest were opened, making him look like a handsome bad boy full of charm.
His sleeves were rolled up to his forearm, revealing his firm muscles.
Seth's exposed muscles had a hint of attraction.
Seth slowly tilted his head to the side and raised his eyebrows at Melody, signaling her to give the keys to him.
Melody's thoughts got blank for a brief moment at that point.
She then pulled out her key and tossed it at him.
When Melody got back into her senses, she realized that Seth had already gotten into the motorcycle before she could even react.
It was too late to reject Seth now.
She could only lower her head and curse in her mind.
"Argh! This handsome man makes me dizzy' When she raised her head, Seth had already revved the motorcycle and parked in front of her.
Melody expected it to be strange, but it turned out to be the opposite, except for the fact that the atmosphere was filled with a charm that could captivate someone to death.
Seth took his helmet off and put it on Melody's head.
Seth's blurry and deep eyes made Melody obey him.
After putting the helmet on, Seth patted Melody's head lightly.
Melody was immediately amused by those pair of eyes that could steal one's soul but had a rare gentleness in them.
Melody turned around and stepped onto the motorcycle.
Her hands subconsciously supported herself in the back seat.
She did not hold Seth by the waist as if she was purposely avoiding him.
"Vroom, vroom, vroom!"
The motorcycle rushed away in front of everyone, rumbling like thunder.
The combination of Seth's handsome face and Melody's beautiful figure was too eye-catching.
They were gone from everyone's sight before people could even react.
After a long time, Lance came back to his senses and said subconsciously, 'When did Seth learn to drive a motorcycle?' In his eyes, Seth was smart and talented.
That was why their family raised their expectations of him.
Lance's life was far different from his uncle's, although Seth was just a few years older than him.
While Lance was playing football with his friends, his uncle had already read the company statements and started to deal with the company matters by his great-grandfather's side.
Therefore, he looked at his uncle as someone who always had a meticulous and dignified image of a king.
Now that he suddenly saw his uncle's freewheeling image, it made him a little bit pressured.
Iven released a sigh as he saw how surprised Lance was for what he had seen.
He reached out to pat Lance on the shoulder and sighed again.
"You are still young compared to your uncle.Back then, your uncle was famous for his driving skills in California!"
‘'Seth was driving a motorcycle even before?’' Lance asked himself.
Lance was left dumbfounded because of what he discovered.He could not believe his third uncle had been really and famous for riding a motorcycle in California.
Seth was a bit aggressive while driving Melody through the streets and alleys.
However, Melody could tell that Seth was good at riding a motorcycle.
Melody did not expect Seth, a wealthy heir, to be this good at driving a motorcycle.
'He was just sitting inside his office every day!' Seth was driving too fast that their motorcycle was dashing on the road.
Suddenly, another motorcycle appeared behind them.
Suddenly, other motorcycles appeared behind them.
Soon, they overtook Seth and Melody.
They seemed to be challenging Seth for a race.
One rider was able to drive faster than Seth and the other motorcycles.
He even turned his head and gestured his thumb down on the others.
"Kid, you are driving such a good bike to pick up ladies, but you are too slow! You cannot get ahead of me!" the guy shouted arrogantly.
After hearing this, Seth's cold, handsome face and sharp eyes became dark.
But Seth did not react right away.
Instead, he turned his gaze to Melody and asked for her opinion.
Melody glanced at the motorcycles surrounding them and looked back at Seth.
"Do you think you can do it?" she asked.
Seth looked at her with a smirk on his face.
"Can I?"
he asked with his dark eyes, 'I should not have asked him!'
Melody immediately regretted asking Seth.
Now she had to face the disastrous consequences.
Looking at Melody's provoking eyes, Seth smiled faintly and devilishly.
He raised his hand to signal the few young men riding motorcycles around them.
He formed his left hand into a fist and waved it behind him.
It was a gesture that everyone who liked racing could understand.It meant that the people behind him should try to accelerate and surpass him.It was a signal for a race! In an instant, the young riders burst into cheers.
'Don't this group of young motorcyclists love racing?' The motorcycles kept rumbling, "Vroom, vroom, vroom!"
Seth used one hand to control the acceleration of the motorcycle.He was still able to move his other hand backward.
Seth forcefully pulled Melody's hand over and placed it on his firm waist.
"Hold on to me tightly!" Seth reminded her.
Seth let go of the brake as soon as he finished speaking, and the motorcycle sped up.
The riders were chasing after each other so fast that people could not see them clearly, as if they seemed to be ghosts.
The red motorcycle who challenged Seth earlier was leading the way.
It seemed that he was the god of motorcycles in this race, and no one could beat him.
In the challenger's eyes, Seth was just a beginner who rode on a motorcycle accompanied by a bubbly lady, so he did not bother himself to keep an eye on him.
However, he was left dumbfounded about the next thing that happened.
