Violet hurried after him, catching up just as McNeil was about to get into the car.

She leaned in, lips poised for a kiss.

Victoria was already seated inside, glancing their way, but McNeil deftly turned aside, skillfully dodging Violet's attempt.

Violet's face flushed with awkwardness, but she still reached out, straightening the lapel of his coat.

"C'mon, man, hurry up!"

Then he called over his shoulder to the back, "Victoria, better buckle up. My driving's not exactly award-winning."

McNeil took Violet's hand gently, then let go. His face grew cold.
