He tugged at the shawl around my shoulders and ordered in a low and hoarse voice, “Take it off.”
I was nervous and scared out of my wits. I knew what Adam wanted, but my mind went completely blank. I couldn’t think of any way to escape without offending him.
In the end, I bit the bullet and shook my head shyly. “I’m not feeling well. I’ll be too cold if I take it off.”
“Is that so?” Adam smiled at me Lasciviously. “Don’t worry. This car has a heater. In fact, you should come closer. I feel a little cold, too.”
Adam ignored my protests and became more presumptuous, slowly moving his thick hand down along the shawl.
My body stiffened under his touch
What should I do? I couldn’t fail the mission that Gale assigned to me! If I fell out with Adam now, would I be able to get out of Roz Town with Elena out alive?
My mind was racing. I couldn’t think straight. All of a sudden, the car screeched to a halt. Adam’s body lurched forward, and he had to hold the front seat to steady himself.
“I’m sorry, sir,” the driver apologized in a hurry.
Adam’s face became livid. He roared, “Are you fucking blind?”

“Sorry, sir. A car suddenly swerved in front of us.” The driver tried to defend himself, feeling aggrieved. 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Adam rolled down the window and looked out. Up ahead was a brand-new Rolls-Royce. It was strange to see such a Luxury car in the middle of this dilapidated town.
Adam was clearly unhappy. “How dare this guy show off in my territory? Catch up and find out who’s in that car!”
“Yes, sir.” The driver stepped on the gas quickly.
When we caught up to the Rolls-Royce, I saw that it was Caleb driving the luxury car.
And the woman in the passenger seat was Janiya!
Adam also recognized Caleb. When the two cars pulled to a stop next to each other, he immediately changed his attitude and asked with concern, “Caleb, why were you driving so fast just now? You should be more careful.”
“I’m trying out my new car,” Caleb answered emotionlessly. He wasn’t as polite as he was previously.
Adam seemed a little unhappy, but he still managed to keep calm. “You should be careful. This road isn’t safe for speeding.”
“I appreciate the concern.”
I didn’t know if I was imagining things, but when Caleb answered Adam, he seemed to be staring straight at me.
His eyes were complicated, but he didn’t say anything to me. Instead, he slammed his foot on the gas and sped away.
