The Wrong Woman

Sadie arranged for a task that required Vanessa to leave the place. 15 minutes later, Vanessa hurriedly walked out of the movie theater.

"What the fuck? Why are they making me rush a PowerPoint on a weekend?" she grumbled. "They need it tomorrow but didn't say anything earlier. What time is it now? Jeez..." Vanessa cursed as she walked. She quickly passed by Josie and left the theater in a rush.

"I'll take you home," Wendell offered politely.

Candice declined his offer with a smile, "It's okay. I'll just take a cab."

"Really, it's fine."
