#Chapter 58: Getaway Driver
I’m pacing my living room, a glass of whiskey in hand, lost in my thoughts. The night has been a
coc ktail of emotions—high spirits at the party, laughter with Abby… And then, of course, there was the
palpable tension with Chloe.
I thought I had managed to keep my feelings under wraps, maintain the casual facade. But Chloe had
to go and ruin it, filling the air with words like poison darts.

consciousness.

What I do recall is the anger, my territorial instincts flaring up, the undeniable urge to assert my
dominance. I had ended up kicking her out of the party.
The aftermath was equally vivid. Abby had been furious, her eyes ablaze with a fire I had rarely seen.
“You’re trying to ruin my friendships, Karl,” she had yelled, her voice strained with emotion. She had left
