Lina was still stupefied.
The man was expressionless as he placed the box in his hands on the concrete floor outside the supermarket.
“Hey, you…” Only then did she react. “Take them away!”
The man froze and tilted his body slightly to look at her.
“You’re the Grist Group’s driver, right?” She crossed her arms. “We’re not selling your problematic beverage. Take
all these boxes away!”
The man looked at her quietly, his deep eyes revealing an unfathomable emotion. He said nothing.
“What? Do you not understand what I’m saying?” Lina frowned. “They’re doing false advertising on the beverage’s
ingredients for profit, and such a scandal has come out, yet they want the merchants to sell their product? Dream
on!

“Take them, take them away! We’ll no longer accept the Grist Group’s merchandise! Also, we want them to be
compensated for the losses we suffer!”
The man stood still, looking calm.
A strange feeling suddenly surged through Lina.
He would argue with her if he was just a regular truck driver. However, this person was so calm that he did not
seem like a driver. He was as cold as ice.
“Hey!”
She felt as if she were talking to a wall.
If he did not speak just now, she would really think that he was mute!
Lina blocked the door so that he could not get in, so he placed the boxes at the door. She was dumbstruck. She
attempted to move them back to the truck, but her tiny arms could not move the heavy boxes.
The man went straight into the truck after he was done unloading the boxes and stepped on the accelerator.
Lina watched the truck from afar with her hands on her waist. She was pissed.
“Forget it, sister.” Lina’s brother, Dave Jenner, walked over.
The 12th-grade boy was much taller than her. She had just felt short standing in front of that man, and now another
person was doing that to her! She heaved a heavy sigh and held back from exploding in rage.
It was an outsider who had offended her, so why should she vent it on her brother?
Dave grabbed her shoulders and smiled. “Sis, if you think they’re an eyesore, I’ll throw them away for you!”
“But…”
But it was the Grists who made them sell the beverage. They had paid, so they would be throwing money away!
“You can’t bear to throw them away now, sis?”

“Don’t worry!”
Lina turned around, entered the store, and got two lollipops from the shelf.
They got one each—it was the tacit understanding they had cultivated since they were young.
“Why were you fighting with him, sis?”
“Him?” She was stunned. “You know him?”
“He’s the driver who delivers for the Grists.” Dave whispered, “I’ve only seen him a few times. Every time I look into
his eyes, I feel a little… scared.”
Lina felt the same when she heard that.
It was not that she was scared, but that man’s eyes were too deep. It was rather cold.
“There are some rumors about him, sis!”
“What?”
“I heard from the street merchants that he has been in prison!”
