Chapter 93

Melvin stared at him like he was looking at a lunatic, “You got nothing else to do?”

What’s her point to come if you haven’t made up? Why’s she here today?” Zephyr couldn’t figure out what kind of game they were playing.

He pulled up right beside it, window down, staring at the traffic light ahead, ready to floor it the second it turned green. And he did, swerving ahead of the taxi and then slamming on the brakes.

Jocelyn’s head spun, her body slamming against the car door, her head thudding against it, buzzing.

The car came to a halt. Jocelyn straightened up, wincing with pain as she moved her shoulder. Her tears were about to spill.

It was a car accident.
