Wanted: Billionaire's Wife And Their Genius Twin Babies novel Chapter 24

On the roller coaster, Jodie looked at Ziggy and Rachel in the first row with utter resentment. 'These jerks!'

'You want to take the first row, fine! Why make me take the second row?!'

The staff member lowered the overhead restraints one by one, scaring the shivers out of Jodie.

When everything was ready, the staff member signaled 'OK' at another worker in the control room.

When the roller coaster emitted a series of humming sounds, Jodie shuddered uncontrollably.

Closing her eyes, she asked her ride partner, "E-excuse me sir, a-a-are you scared?"

"Madam, who are you calling sir!"

A childish voice spoke up.

Confused, Jodie's head snapped around to face the young girl beside her who was about 6 or 7 years old.

'What happened to children these days? Why do they like to ride on torturous things like this??'

"Madam, don't worry, it's my first ever ride, I'm so nervous!"

Jodie was slightly relieved at that confession. "Hearing you say that made me feel better."

The girl rolled her eyes at Jodie.

Rachel and Ziggy turned around and grinned in schadenfreude. "Don't worry, it's gonna be over in just a flash."

Jodie opened her mouth in an attempt to berate Rachel and Ziggy as the humming roller coaster began to move forward very slowly.

The other passengers of the roller coaster were talking amongst each other as if they were at a reunion dinner.

However, a jarring shriek rang from the front of the train.

"Gaaaaaah!"

Within that moment, everyone's gaze focused on Jodie.

The girl beside her covered her ears helplessly. "Madam, we're only starting, what are you shouting for?!"

Jodie grabbed onto the safety handrail in front of her and replied while having the jitters, "I-I-I-I'm only warming up!"

The roller coaster moved to the highest point of the track and slowed to a stop.

Jodie opened her eyes in a daze but she was smiling.

"Oh! It's finished already?!"

Rachel, who sat in front, smiled as her eyes closed slightly. "That's right! I told you, it's not scary, and it'll be over very soon!"

Ziggy nodded to Rachel's statement. "That's right, I don't know what Aunt Jodie was so scared about."

The girl beside Jodie looked at Rachel and Ziggy in confusion. 'Why are they lying to the madam? The roller coaster is just starting...'

With a smile on her face, Jodie tutted, "I thought it would be scary! I guess there was nothing to worry about aft—"

Before Jodie could even finish her sentence, the stopped roller coaster started to move as it plunged at high speed.

All of a sudden, everyone in the roller coaster screamed.

Waves of yells and squeals filled Jodie's ears, but they could not pull her expression back.

In the first row, Rachel and Ziggy exchanged a wicked grin.

After the roller coaster finally stopped at its loading platform, everyone slowly got out of their carts.

Only Jodie sat at her place, her face as pale as paper. It was as if her soul was lost to the void.

The little girl on Jodie's side patted her shoulder. "Madam, take care."

Rachel then unbuckled Jodie from her seat and pulled her to her feet.
