Chapter 3 Have You Fallen for That Girl?

James had never seen a girl stand up to Alexander like that before, so he couldn't help but do a double-take in the rearview mirror. Allison was gutsy. Did she even know who she was sitting next to?

"Alexander Cater, from Skycrest. I'm here to thank you for saving my life!" Alexander handed her a business card.

Allison took it and tossed it into her backpack without even glancing at it.

James couldn't resist asking, "Ms. Bennett, do you know anything about medicine?"

He found it hard to believe an eighteen-year-old could pull off surgery like that.

Allison shook her head. "Nope, my neighbor's a vet, and I help out sometimes."

So, Alexander was like a stray cat or dog to her? James shivered at the thought.

Alexander stared at Allison but kept his cool. "Do vets need to know how to remove bullets?"

Allison shook her head again. "No, but you were in bad shape last night. If I didn't take it out, you might've died. So, I just went for it."

'Using a human life as a test run, this girl is something else,' James thought.

"If there's nothing else, can I go? Please pull over at the next intersection," Allison said to the driver.

The driver looked at Alexander for approval. Seeing him nod, he finally stopped the car.
