Chapter 33

After dinner, Joshua and Allison made their way down to the underground garage.

Allison strolled over to the blue Bentley.

Joshua suddenly asked, "So, how do you like driving this car?"

Allison bit her lip and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I took it for a spin last night. It's fantastic, thank you."

"Oh? What kind of gift?"

"It's back at the hotel in my suitcase. I'll get it for you when I come back."

Joshua opened the driver-side door. "I'll come with you. Let me drive."

"Huh?" Allison was momentarily caught off guard but quickly recovered. "Sure, we can go together, but let me drive. You deserve a break."
