In the garage of the White family, there were three vehicles.
A Mercedes-Benz S6, a Maserati, and an old electric bike that Tacito used for grocery shopping.
Under normal circumstances, Bella, the beautiful CEO, preferred to drive the Mercedes-Benz S6, which was low-key yet sophisticated.
However, just as Bella was about to open the car door and sit in the driver's seat, a large hand blocked her.
Huh?
Bella was taken aback, looking at Tacito in confusion.
"Let me drive today!" Tacito said with a slight smile. Under Bella's surprised gaze, he took the driver's seat.
"Do you know how to drive?" Bella was stunned.
In the three years since they married, she had never seen Tacito drive. He usually rode his electric bike when they went out. She had never even seen his driver's license.
This...
"You'll see in a bit!" Tacito didn't explain further, just smiled slightly and buckled his seatbelt.
Seeing this, Bella had doubts, but didn't refuse. She turned and sat in the passenger seat. For some reason, she felt that Tacito had changed a lot.
The old Tacito was always submissive and timid, but the current Tacito always had a confident smile on his face, as if he had everything under control.
It's said that confident men are the most handsome, and at this moment, in Bella's eyes, this version of Tacito was indeed... quite handsome.
When the car door closed!
To Bella's surprise, Tacito didn't start the car. Instead, his eyes revealed a touch of nostalgia and inexplicable melancholy.
"Bella, do you remember the White's Bun Shop?"
Huh?
Bella was taken aback.
Of course, she remembered. When she was young, due to a family feud, her parents and she were expelled from the White family by her grandfather. They had to rely on running a bun shop to make a living. How could she forget?
However, she didn't understand why Tacito brought it up.
Looking at Bella, Tacito couldn't help but think of a snotty, pony-tailed little girl.
That was ten years ago.
When he was thirteen, his devilish master gave him an order to track down a major criminal from a mysterious organization, which had brought him to China.
In that battle!
Little Tacito killed thirty-two top assassins from that mysterious organization. In the ultimate showdown with the major criminal, he successfully killed the enemy, but he was seriously injured and on the brink of death.
It was still early in the morning.
The streets of Jackville City were deserted, with not a soul in sight. Only one bun shop was still lit.
At that moment, Tacito crawled along, trying to leave.
His blood, bright red, painted a long streak on the ground. He thought he was going to die.
Hunger, pain, and fatigue were constantly tormenting him.
But just when he was about to give up, a little girl appeared in front of him.
It was Bella!
"Big brother, are you hungry? Here, this is a fresh bun from our shop. Eat it!"
Tacito would always remember Bella's sweet smile, as sweet as candy, down to the bone.
It was that bun that gave little Tacito some strength and miraculously brought him back from the brink of death.
He left China!
He completed his master's ultimate mission and became the new king of the global underworld at the age of thirteen!
However!
Even when he was making waves overseas and was invincible, he could never forget Bella, nor the bloody bun she gave him.
"Tacito, what's wrong?" Bella was taken aback.
She sensed a wave of sadness and longing from Tacito, a mysterious aura that made her question if this was the same man she had been living with for three years.
"Nothing, let's go!"
Tacito took a deep breath, locked away the memories in his mind, started the car, and left the White family.
On the streets, cars came and went incessantly.
However, Bella noticed that Tacito's driving skills were extremely proficient. The car was not only smooth, but also fast. It kept weaving through the traffic and overtaking other cars.
Bella's surprise grew more and more intense.
She finally realized that her good-for-nothing husband was not completely useless.
However!
She didn't know that the Mercedes-Benz Tacito was driving was not only smooth and fast, but also managed to avoid all the cameras.
Whenever they entered the camera's range!
The license plate of the Mercedes-Benz was either blocked by the car in front or the one behind, or it entered the blind spot of the camera.
Instinct!
This was Tacito's instinct. The reason he hadn't driven once in these three years was to hide his instinct.
Now, as long as Tacito wanted, there was no camera in the world that could capture him.
The Mercedes-Benz sped along, much to Bella's surprise.
However!
Just as they stopped at an intersection and Bella was about to ask when Tacito learned to drive.
Tacito's ears twitched, and his face changed dramatically.
"Watch out!"
As he said this!
Tacito suddenly turned the steering wheel, and the whole Mercedes-Benz made a 'screeching' sound. Almost instantly, it darted to the side lane.
At the same time!
Vroom!
A Lamborghini behind them let out a beast-like roar and rushed to the spot where the Mercedes-Benz had just stopped, leaving a long trail of tire marks.
That was close!
They were off by a fraction of a second.
If Tacito had reacted a bit slower, they would have been hit hard by the Lamborghini.
With the terrifying force of the Lamborghini, both the Mercedes-Benz and the two people inside would have been crushed to pulp.
But even so!
Bella was scared pale by this sudden change, and cold sweat poured down her face.
That's not all.
What made Tacito's face even grimmer was that there were two young men in the Lamborghini. They seemed surprised that they hadn't hit the Mercedes-Benz, and then they burst into laughter.
"Hey! Isn't this Bella, the most beautiful CEO in Jackville City? How about it? Come out and play with us!"
"Yeah, wow, as expected of Jackville City's most beautiful CEO, you're really pretty! Come on, we'll take good care of you, we promise you'll have a great time!"
Obscene language!
At this moment, the two young men were looking at Bella in the Mercedes-Benz, their faces full of evil and lewdness.
"Roy Nash! Xenon Earp!"
Meanwhile, Bella recognized the two young men, her face turning pale.
She knew that Roy was the young master of the Geralt Group, one of the three leading companies in Jackville City, a super prodigal second generation.
And Xenon was the only son of the powerful chairman of Jackville City.
These two were known as the two wicked young masters of Jackville City.
Before, they had both pursued her relentlessly, but she had repeatedly rejected them. She hadn't expected to run into them here.
That's not all.
Roy's gaze shifted to Tacito in the driver's seat, and he was slightly taken aback. Then a smirk appeared on his face.
"Hahaha... Bella, is this your useless husband? Huh, I heard he's good for nothing, but I didn't expect him to know how to drive. That's quite something, haha..."
Roy's words were filled with mockery.
And Xenon beside him also burst out laughing.
"Bella, how did you fall for him? No job, no looks, no abilities! Could it be that he's well-endowed and good in bed? Haha..."
The eyes of these two young masters were filled with jealousy and disdain.
In their eyes, a goddess like Bella should only be paired with young masters like them. Clearly, Bella, a beautiful flower, was stuck on a pile of cow dung like Tacito.
Hearing these insulting words, a hint of coldness flashed in Tacito's eyes.
Before he could speak, Bella quickly advised him.
"Tacito, let's go! Don't mind them!"
Bella's face was pale, and her expression was full of worry.
Obviously, they couldn't afford to offend these two young masters.
Seeing this, Tacito could only nod. When he saw the green light come on, he instantly stepped on the gas, and the Mercedes-Benz shot out, driving forward.
However, they wanted to leave, but Roy and Xenon on the Lamborghini were not willing to let them go.
"Huh? Trying to run away in front of me? Idiot!"
As soon as he finished speaking!
Roy sneered, then stomped on the gas pedal. The Lamborghini, like an arrow leaving the bow, roared and quickly chased after the Mercedes-Benz.
He was a key member of the supercar club and one of the top amateur racers in Jackville City.
Especially with this imported modified Lamborghini, catching up to a Mercedes-Benz driven by a useless son-in-law was a piece of cake.
Vroom!
In the blink of an eye, the Lamborghini was getting closer and closer to the Mercedes-Benz.
One hundred meters!
Fifty!
Thirty!
