Bossy

Two days later, Emma was already walking; she no longer wore a neck brace and felt much better, although the doctor still didn't want to discharge her as she still experienced dizziness as a sequel.

Emma was walking around the room while Chantal read about some lawyer jobs near Chantal's house in the newspaper.

"I think this one looks great, full-time from Monday to Friday with a payment of $30 per hour!" said Chantal, wearing reading glasses while enjoying a large plate of fruits.

At that moment, the doorbell rang, and Carter and Rodrigo entered the room.

"Good evening, I hope we're not interrupting," said Carter, serious, staring at Emma intently.

Emma turned slowly to meet Carter's gaze.

"Excuse me, who are you?" asked Chantal, getting up from the sofa.

"Oh, sorry, I'm Rodrigo, and this is Carter, the man who almost killed your friend," said Rodrigo, shaking hands with Chantal and giving her a mischievous smile, as Chantal was a sexy blonde girl.

"And you must be Emma, right? It's great that you're alive, we were really worried," said Rodrigo, Carter's friend, shaking Emma's hand. "Rodrigo, please be quiet and leave Emma and me alone..!" said Carter, looking serious and urging Rodrigo and Chantal to leave the room.

"I'll let you talk, but if anything happens, shout loudly and I'll come in, okay?!" said Chantal, glaring at Carter angrily.

"Yes, don't worry," said Emma, looking at the incredibly handsome Carter, with his disheveled hair, muscular body, and a hoop earring that made him look sexy.

Chantal and Rodrigo left the room, leaving Carter and Emma alone.

"Hi, my name is Carter, as you've already heard, and yes, it's true that ten days ago you came out of nowhere in the woods and I accidentally hit you!" said Carter, sitting on the sofa and taking out some papers to hand them to Emma.

"Are you kidding me? You come here to tell me that you ran me over as if it were nothing, and you give me these papers to absolve yourself of any responsibility!" said Emma, angrily reading the papers.

"I'm actually doing you a favor. I have a video where you appear out of thin air, as if you were possessed, and you completely wrecked my three-million-dollar car!" said Carter, looking at Emma.

"Haha, doing me a favor? From what I understand, the speed limit in that area is not more than eighty kilometers per hour, and that night you were going way faster!" said Emma, irritated, sitting on the bed and looking at Carter.

"Believe me, if I had been going over 80, I wouldn't be here, but rather in the morgue. Besides, what were you doing running like a madwoman in the darkness?" said Carter.

"It can't be, you're the arrogant guy from the airport café!" said Emma.

"Ah, I remember you now. I get it, for you, it's a habit to run and bump into everyone!" said Carter, mockingly laughing.

"Sorry, but I'm not going to sign anything. In fact, as soon as I leave here, I'm going to file a complaint!" said Emma, angry at Carter's arrogance.

"I understand that you're a lawyer, and you know very well that if we engage in a legal battle, I will have to pay for the damages I've caused so far. But you will also have to pay for my car, a deductible of fifty percent, which amounts to one and a half million!" said Carter, looking at Emma, angry at her gestures that made her look beautiful.

"This can't be happening. You're an idiot!" said Emma.

"Well, I'll leave now. Call me when you have an answer or if you sign the paper. Get well soon, Emma!" said Carter, leaving a card on the dresser and winking at Emma as he exited the room.

"Idiot!" said Emma, angrily.

As Carter left, Chantal entered.

"What happened? Did he try to buy you off so you wouldn't sue or did he try to charm you with his handsome face?" said Chantal, angry.

"No, quite the opposite. He came to collect payment for his stupid car!" said Emma.

"What the hell? The only thing he has going for him is his good looks, but he's an idiot!" said Chantal.

"I can't believe this is happening to me...!" said Emma.

"You're the best lawyer, maybe you can do something about it!" said Chantal.

"You're right. I won't let that arrogant guy get away with it. But right now, all I want is to leave here and not owe anything to him anymore!" said Emma, standing up from the bed.
