Feeling a bit embarrassed, Grace replied, “I wasn’t…”

Lewis chuckled. “I get it. You’re traveling alone, so it’s natural to be cautious. I just don’t want my people feeling uneasy.”

Once Grace’s doubts were settled, he hung up.

Theo Rhodes was a great driver, and the whole ride felt like a gentle cruise. Grace nodded off and woke up refreshed. She hadn’t slept that well in ages.
