Caught off guard, Grace paused. Lewis went on, “No need to stress about safety. The local police know the route. If the car goes off course, they can track it in real time. If you’re still worried, you can call them.”

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.

She wasn’t even at Velvet Eatery yet, but her new boss was already showing concern. Meanwhile, Antonio, the man she loved, had left her to take care of Janelle’s cat. The contrast stung Grace.

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.
