“If you weren’t Macy’s dad, I wouldn’t bother saying another word to you!”
“Let me give you one last piece of advice: for Macy’s sake, find a decent job!”
Beep beep beep! At that moment, a black BMW parked by the roadside honked repeatedly.
The driver’s window rolled down, and a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses waved at Karen.
“Take care of yourself!”
Karen didn’t linger, throwing down a sentence before walking towards the BMW 5 Series.
Ding! You have received a new order.
At the same time, the familiar Uber Delivery notification sounded from Jacob’s phone.
He instinctively glanced at the order information; the pickup location was a cake shop one kilometer away, and the delivery community was less than two kilometers from the pickup point, making it a quality order.
At this moment, Jacob couldn’t determine whether the HealthyWage Game System was real or not, but life still had to go on. He took a deep breath and then hopped onto the nearby electric bike.
“Bro, don’t worry.”
“I’ll take good care of Karen!”
The man with gold-rimmed glasses leaned out of the driver’s seat, speaking smugly.
Hmph! Pah!!
Jacob couldn’t be bothered to waste words with such a person. As the electric bike started, he spat a mouthful of phlegm directly at him.
Damn it!!
The two were quite close, and Jacob’s spit landed right on the man’s nose.
The phlegm slid down and slowly flowed to his lips.
Karen quickly took out a tissue to help wipe it off.
“What kind of quality!”
“What the hell kind of quality!”
“Damn it!!!”
Wiping away the old phlegm that almost flowed into his mouth, Rick Zapper cursed loudly.
“Dear, let’s not stoop to his level.”
“He’s just a stinky food delivery guy; what quality can he have?”
Karen quickly comforted him.
“You were blind to have found such a man.” Rick scoffed, taking a wet wipe to clean his face.
“I was young and didn’t know better back then.”
Karen said with a pitiful look, as if she were about to cry.
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about the past. I’ll take you out for a big meal to celebrate!” Rick reached out and pinched the woman’s cheek, then started the car.
…….
Smartday Holding.
The developer positioned it as a high-end community, but in reality, it was only of mid-to-high-end quality, far from the truly upscale neighborhoods in Coastville.
Delivery riders were not allowed to enter the community with their electric bikes, so Jacob could only walk. Since he was delivering a birthday cake, he didn’t dare to run and was careful all the way.
With just two minutes left on the delivery time, he arrived at the client’s door.
He pressed the doorbell on the fingerprint lock, and soon the door opened.
“Thank you.”
A beautiful woman in her thirties, wearing an apron, smiled as she took the cake.
“You’re welcome.”
Jacob replied and casually clicked to mark the delivery as complete.
Just as he was about to leave, the beautiful woman suddenly called out to him, “Hey, wait a moment.”
“What’s wrong?”
Jacob looked at her in confusion.
“There are a few cockroaches that somehow came out of the kitchen. Can you help me deal with them?”
“I can give you fifty bucks.”
The woman said somewhat frustrated.
“Uh, sure!”
Jacob was currently struggling financially, and fifty bucks was significant for him; he could treat his daughter to an extra meal that night.
“Thank you, please come in.”
The woman took out a pair of men’s slippers from the shoe cabinet.
As she bent down to grab the slippers, her pajama pants inadvertently tightened, outlining the curves of her rounded hips, showcasing the unique charm of a mature woman.
Once inside, Jacob instinctively glanced around the room and soon spotted a wedding photo hanging on the wall. The woman had indeed been beautiful in her youth; the V-neck wedding dress revealed an enticing cleavage.
The man beside her was refined, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Huh? This man looks a bit familiar.
What a coincidence!! Jacob was shocked; wasn’t this the BMW guy he had just spat out some 1982 phlegm at? He didn’t know the man’s name but knew his surname was Zapper, the department director at the advertising company where Karen worked.
Karen had mentioned the capable Director Zapper several times shortly after starting her job, so he wasn’t surprised that the two were involved.
However, he didn’t expect that the beautiful woman in front of him was actually Director Zapper’s wife.
“Hey, the kitchen is this way.”
Seeing Jacob standing there in a daze, Vienna Zapper reminded him.
“Oh, okay.”
Jacob snapped back to reality, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over Vienna’s cheek. This woman wasn’t as stunning as Karen, but her figure was more voluptuous, and there was a captivating charm in her eyes, reminiscent of a ripe peach.
