Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

The more Beverley thought about it, the angrier she got, and the angrier she got, the more she wanted to get out of the house!

"Black," she called to her driver, "Get ready, I need to go out in twenty minutes."

"Of course, ma'am."

Beverley went upstairs to change her clothes and put on her makeup.

The driver was already waiting for her, and she gracefully slid into the car.

"Let's go."

Sure enough, before the car even left the driveway, she could spot that mother-son duo squatting by the gate, one on each side, like a pair of menacing gargoyles. "Ma'am, those two have been squatting by the gate. What if they rush up and stop the car?"

The driver was concerned because just a few days ago, when he took the car out for maintenance, he was stopped by them.

Seeing no one else in the car, they finally let him go.

The driver was annoyed; it was clear those two were troublemakers, shameless and reckless. He just wanted to keep his job and get his paycheck without risking his neck. Hearing this, Beverley scoffed, "Just drive, don't stop for anything. I'll take responsibility for whatever happens!"
