Rodrick didn’t usually drive himself, he was mostly driven by a driver or Britney.
Hearing Bianca’s tone, Rodrick’s driver probably wasn’t at the hospital right now.
Britney suddenly had a bad feeling and instinctively wanted to get out of there fast.
However, Rodrick called out to her first, “Britney.”
Britney wanted to pretend she didn’t hear, but the big guy in front of her was pretty strong. Britney tried a few times but couldn’t get past him.
And Rodrick had already walked up to her, looking down at her.
Britney just had to face it and asked, “Any instructions, Mr. Livingston?”
“Take us to the restaurant.”
Rodrick used a commanding tone.
Just like before, he called her whenever he wanted and sent her away whenever he pleased.
But she wasn’t the same Britney anymore.
I didn’t suck up to him anymore.
Britney politely but firmly turned down his order, “Placidity Eatery isn’t far from here, Mr. Livingston could just take a cab there.”

Rodrick frowned, already looking impatient, and clearly reminded her, “Don’t forget the car you’re driving now belongs to the company. I get to decide how it’s used.”
Britney suddenly just deflated.
Yeah.
The car was Royarch Capital’s.
Royarch Capital was Rodrick’s.
It had nothing to do with her, even though she had worked her butt off for Royarch Capital and for Rodrick for seven whole years.
Britney forced down the ache in her chest and handed the car keys to Rodrick, “Here you go.”
I didn’t want the job, didn’t want the person, and there was no need to keep the car.
These things were all given to her by him, one by one.
Now he was asking for them back one by one.
Britney’s reaction was surprisingly calm, and the blank look on her face made Rodrick pause for a second.
These days he kept feeling like Britney was a different person.
But he couldn’t really say what exactly had changed.
He suddenly felt kind of anxious and uneasy, like something important
was slowly slipping away without him knowing…
Britney looked up at him, her eyes that had been a bit red slowly cooled down, like a dead sea.

She spoke slowly, her tone distant, “Mr. Livingston, if there’s anything else that’s yours, I’ll give it all back to you.”
Rodrick lifted his eyelids, his features were sharp and handsome, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
“What were you getting upset about?”
The cold rain spread its chill, but it was nothing compared to what Britney felt inside.
At this point, he actually thought she was just throwing a tantrum?
“Then just think I was making a fuss.” She didn’t explain or defend herself.
When people felt disappointed, they only chose to back off and give
- up.
Because she knew clearly that when she talked about her grievances, all she got in return was just a debate.
You should’ve understood, the misunderstandings in the past didn’t need to be cleared up.
A long goodbye was the best outcome.
After Britney said this, she turned around and walked into the rain without any hesitation, leaving quickly.
She didn’t have time to waste on Rodrick anymore.
Seven years, that’s enough of everything!
The early winter rain was really cold, but Britney didn’t notice at all. Her thin figure quickly disappeared into the rain.

“What happened to Britney?” Bianca seemed out of the loop.
Rodrick lowered his eyes and said calmly, “I don’t know. Ignore her. Let’s go eat first.”
After he finished speaking, he took off his jacket and put it over Bianca’s head, “It’s not far, let’s run over.”
