“What’s wrong?” Jacob noticed that something was off with Abigail. Just as he was about to start the car, he paused

and nervously looked at her.

‘Is the seat uncomfortable? Is there not enough space? Maybe my car isn’t up to her standards…’

Abigail always had plenty of admirers, especially wealthy heirs who would spare no expense for her.

Jacob’s confidence wavered as a sense of inferiority resurfaced.

Then, at that moment, he noticed that Abigail hadn’t fastened her seatbelt. A lightbulb went off in his head. Could

that be the issue?

He quickly leaned over and reached out to fasten her seatbelt.

Abigail was startled, and butterflies fluttered in her stomach. In that split second, as Jacob leaned over, she caught

a whiff of his fresh lavender scent and noticed a faint reddish hue on his white shirt under the evening sun.

When he looked up and smiled after securing her seatbelt, she felt it would still be worth it even if she broke her

foot today!

“A-All set.” Jacob hurriedly composed himself, unable to meet her eyes and stumbling over his words. “This car of

mine… it’s not very high-end, so the seatbelt doesn’t fasten automatically…”

“Huh?” Abigail was taken aback.

To this day, she had never heard of a high-end car with an automatic seatbelt function.

Jacob realized his mistake and quickly started the engine. Abigail blushed and smiled, her eyes lowered.

As they drove, she took a closer look at the car’s interior.

It had an elegant black color with sleek lines that exuded grace and sophistication.

On the passenger side, there were no feminine belongings… She discreetly opened the glove compartment, peeked

into the center console, and quietly pulled down the sun visor…

But there were no cosmetics or perfumes, as she had imagined.

In Abigail’s mind, once a girl had a boyfriend, she would claim the passenger seat as her own.

‘Has his girlfriend… never sat here?’

“Are you looking for something?” Jacob asked softly.

Abigail’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly waved her hand. “I’m not looking for lipstick!”

“What?”

Abigail bit her lip, regretting her words.

“Um, you…” Jacob smiled. “How did you know I have lipstick here?”

“Huh?”

Jacob parked the car by the road and took out a tube of lipstick from his suit pocket. It was a limited edition from a

popular international brand.

He placed it gently in Abigail’s hand and turned away, pretending to be serious. “You can use this for now.”

Abigail was stunned. “Why do you have something like this?”

“Ah… Yeah! Haha…” Jacob forced an awkward laugh. “Actually, this isn’t mine! The distributor of this brand in

Centrolis recently had a lawsuit, and I helped him win the case. As a token of gratitude, he gave me their latest

product! This… This is a-a gift!”

Abigail looked at him, noticing the sweat forming on the tip of his nose.

Did he really not realize that this was a poorly constructed lie?

Which distributor would be so tactless as to only gift a tube of lipstick after winning a lawsuit?

And the shade was… 143.

It was a limited edition shade that many female celebrities coveted.

Abigail lowered her head, stealing a secret glance at his handsome profile. She smiled and tucked the lipstick into

her pocket.

“By the way, let me take you to the hospital for your injured foot!” Jacob suggested.

“I’m fine, it doesn’t hurt!” Abigail interjected.

However, a sharp pain shot through her ankle even with a slight movement. Despite her mastery of facial

expressions, she couldn’t hide the grimace of pain.
