“The Green Ride app,” he said, and my eyes widened. I had the app downloaded on my phone but never used that ride-share service that only had electric cars as transport. It was the most popular app with young people, but I could never afford it.
Maybe after my new job, I thought gleefully.
“That’s crazy,” I said.
“We never thought it would blow up the way it did,” he said, deep in his thoughts. Then he looked over at me and smiled. “One day, you’ll get there too. I have my own chain of restaurants, and in the beginning, it’s hard, but at the end, you’ll see reward.”
“I never thought about that,” I said, looking down at my interlocked fingers. “What if it fails?”
“It’s better to fail than to never try, right?” he pointed out, and I smiled.
“You’re right,” I said, looking up and realizing that he was still looking at me. My pulse pounded faster, and I looked out the window behind him and noticed that we were getting closer to my neighborhood.
I started to panic. I couldn’t let him see where I lived.
“You can stop right here,” I said quickly, and the limo stopped in front of an average-looking home. It was much better than allowing them to see the trailer I lived in. “Thank you so much for the ride.”
“No problem,” he said. “Tomorrow morning, I’ll have someone pick you up at eight a.m.”
“Oh, okay,” I said nervously since we were in front of the wrong house. “I’ll…I’ll be here.”
He patted my arm, and my face heated up at the contact. This drop-dead gorgeous man just touchedmyarm. As I walked away from the limo, my face burned when I realized he was still sitting there as I walked up to the house.
Walking as slowly as possible, I looked back and saw that the limo was still there, so I waved politely so he could go away.
Fuck.
I stood in front of the main door and pretended to rummage in my small purse for my keys for as long as possible. But still, the car didn’t move. He wanted to make sure I entered the house safely.

“Don’t drive away yet,”I ordered the driver.
I had to make sure she was in the house safely before we left. The neighborhood looked sketchy enough to me, and I wasn’t sure how I felt about her living here. The houses were all rundown, and the lawns were not mowed at all. There were piles of random wood and garbage piled up on the side of the roads, too.
Breanna was acting pretty strange, though. She had been looking in her purse for over five minutes for her keys, and I started to get a little worried. I couldn’t believe she accepted the job. In all reality, she was too beautiful to clean houses.
After seeing her face in the job ad, I couldn’t resist her. I couldn’t help but stare at her soft curves as she bent her head, looking in her purse. Her chestnut hair draped over her face in her frantic efforts.
She suddenly walked back towards the limo, and I opened the window.
“Is everything okay?” I inquired.
“Yes, feel free to go,” she said breathlessly. “I found my keys, but I think I’ll buy a small snack first down the street.”
“I can give you a ride,” I offered, hoping itwasn’t too much for her. If I acted too creepy, she’d never step foot into our pack house again.
“It’s okay,” she said quickly, losing patience with me as she started to walk away.
Rolling the window up, I realized something was off with her now. She seemed a little short with me.
“Follow her, but don’t make it obvious,” I said to the driver, who was trained to avoid detection.
“Yes, sir,” he said quickly, and I smiled because he seemed excited about the hunt. Jeff was never excited about anything except his vacations and his family. He started to drive down the road in the opposite direction of where Breanna was heading towards. After a few minutes, he made a U-turn, and we slowly followed from a distance.
She seemed unaware and lost in her thoughts as we slowly followed her.
I suddenly realized we were at a trailer park now, and there were children without shoes running around in the sand that had broken glass embedded into it. I started to feel bad that I’d probably given her a hard time about giving her a ride.
