Chapter 339 The driver instantly became aggressive. He said, "Pay up. You can't take a ride without paying." The driver was cunning. He had been roaming across Seechertown for years and knew the people who came out from the golf course were rich.
Also, he could smell the alcohol coming from Wilbur, so he sneakily adjusted the meter. Moreover, he could tell those two were not married. They were probably dating.
Usually in a situation where the guy was drunk, he would pay without caring about the amount.
Even if they were sober, the guy would usually pretend to be generous in front
of their girlfriends. They would pay up to avoid unnecessary trouble too.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was not the first time he had done this kind of scam. He basically had everything covered.
However, Wilbur was not drunk at all.
~The price was absurdly high, and he did not want to be treated as a fool, so he asked the driver.
He had no idea the driver would flip out on him. Wilbur was also annoyed by that.
He looked at the driver and said, "Aren't you worried that I'll report you for doing that? You'll be fined." The driver instantly yelled, "Hey, are you trying to avoid payment?" "Watch it. Are you threatening me?"
asked Wilbur nonchalantly.
The driver noticed that it was not Pp working on Wilbur, so he instantly got out of the car and slammed the door.
He yelled at Wilbur, "Get out right now!" The driver noticed his usual trick was not working, so he was about to act like a gangster on him. It was one of his tricks too.
Nancy, who was about to go upstairs, noticed something was wrong, so she hurriedly turned back. Wilbur got out of the car.
Nancy asked, "What's going on?" "This guy is trying to scam me by adjusting the meter. He's also trying to threaten me," said Wilbur while laughing.
Nancy looked at the driver when she heard that, and she also felt at a loss on how to respond to the situation.
Of all the people the driver could threaten, why did he have to threaten Wilbur? Could he even afford to threaten him? "Just accept the usual rate and leave quickly before you get yourself into trouble," Nancy tried to warn the driver.

"This is the first time I met a bold and conniving driver," Wilbur chuckled.
The driver looked irritated and threatened, "I'm telling you that I'll call my bros if you don't pay up. The compensation for the delay and extra manpower will cost more than three hundred dollars by then." Wilbur was furious. He could not believe the driver was bold enough to threaten their safety.
Wilbur wanted to beat him up on the spot. However, he remembered Nancy lived there and the driver knew her address. He wanted to avoid future trouble for her.
He thought about it and said slowly, "Forget it. I won't argue with you. I'll pay you three hundred dollars." Wilbur was about to make the transfer, but the driver sneered and said, "You wasted my time, and it affects my
business. It's five hundred dollars now." "Don't push it." Nancy instantly tried to argue. The few hundred dollars did not matter, but the driver was driving them crazy.
Wilbur was irritated too. Who the hell did the driver think he was? He instantly said, "I don't have a single penny on me today. What can you do about it?" "What can I do? I told you earlier.
When my bros get here, the price will be a lot higher," said the driver with a menacing face.
Wilbur laughed and shook his head. He said, "Fine, call your bros. Let's see what they're made of."
