The Amazing son in law Chapter 935

Meanwhile, a deeply anxious Claire was making her way to Sacred Heart Hospital in a hurry.

She was filled with worry after hearing that her mother had suffered a broken leg. Claire felt completely in the dark about what had transpired with her mother over the past two days.

After Elaine hung up the phone, she clutched her right leg, which was throbbing with pain, and broke out in a cold sweat.

At that moment, Elaine could no longer contain her frustration. She urged her driver with irritation, “Can you speed up this broken car a bit? Why are you going so slowly? Don’t you realize that I’m in pain?”

The cab driver responded matter-of-factly, “I have to obey the speed limit while driving in the city. I must adhere to these regulations. If I speed, not only will I lose points, but it also endangers pedestrians.”

“Who are you putting in danger?” Elaine shot back, her anger boiling over. “Can you just drive faster? I’m in agony! Are you trying to milk more money out of me? If I end up disabled because of your slow driving, I’ll make sure to settle this with you!”

The driver, appearing unfazed, replied, “I’m already driving as fast as I can. If you think I’m too slow, feel free to get out and find another cab!”

Without thinking, Elaine snapped, “What kind of attitude is this? Do you really think I won’t file a complaint against you? You’re going to lose your job today!”

The cab driver, now irritated, shot back, “I’m following the traffic rules. What could you possibly complain about? Are you going to report me for not speeding when you demanded it?”

Seething with anger, Elaine cursed, “I’ll tell your employer that you were acting inappropriately and harassing me!”

The cab driver burst into laughter. He glanced at Elaine through the rearview mirror and said scornfully, “Did you take a good look at yourself today? You don’t even have your two front teeth, and you’re claiming I harassed you? I’d be thanking my lucky stars if you didn’t harass me!”

Stunned into silence, Elaine hadn’t anticipated such a sharp retort about her appearance. Infuriated, she shot back, “What’s your name? Which company do you work for? I’m going to call and complain about you right now!”

Hearing this, the cab driver lost his patience. He pulled over to the side of the road and said dismissively, “If you want to complain, go ahead. I’m done taking you anywhere. Get out of my car!”

Elaine, refusing to back down, yelled, “You want me to get out now? Who do you think you are? Start driving this instant! If my treatment for my broken leg is delayed because of you, I’ll make sure to fight you on this!”

The driver switched off the engine, sneering, “Sorry, but my car is broken and I can’t move it. If you don’t want to get out, feel free to wait with me.”

Elaine was taken aback; she hadn’t expected her threats to fall flat. As she continued to fume, the driver opened his door, stepping out for a smoke.

Charlie, sitting in the front passenger seat, couldn’t help but find the situation somewhat amusing.

His mother-in-law seemed utterly clueless about how to handle the situation. She was the one with the broken leg who needed immediate treatment, while the driver had no injuries and was in no rush. What was she achieving by being rude and shouting at him?

Now that the driver had refused to take her to the hospital, wasn’t Elaine the one prolonging her treatment?

Yet, Charlie didn’t mind. He asked, “Mom, what’s our next move? Are we really going to sit here?”

Elaine was about to explode but knew she had to get to the hospital quickly to treat her broken leg. The thought of potential complications terrified her. This text is hosted at find⦿novel.net

Thus, she quickly instructed Charlie, “Get out and hail another cab for us!”

Charlie nodded and exited the car, walking to the roadside to wait for a new cab.
