Dexter had done it on purpose, embarrassing Josie in front of everyone. The more Josie thought about it, the angrier she got. As she walked down the bustling streets, her mood remained tense for a long time.

She hadn't been walking for long, maybe about three minutes, when a horn sounded abruptly from the roadside. A sleek black sports car pulled up smoothly beside her. The window was partially lowered, revealing a man's face that was both nonchalant and intense. "Get in the car."
