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.

“Hey, I’m just checking in on your love life, man,” Zephyr said as he quickly retracted his head when Melvin started to roll up the window, “Easy, man, you’re gonna give me a concussion.”

Melvin didn’t respond, just started the engine and drove off.

He hadn’t gone far when he saw the taxi Jocelyn had taken stopped at a red light.

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 glanced up and immediately recognized the car in front, even without seeing the license plate.

The driver, still agitated, sped up.

Crash!

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.
