Yvonne was still thinking about Nina's safety. If the conversation went south, at least Nash could quickly drive away, ensuring Nina's safety.

The cars blocking the road pulled over to the side, and Nash parked his car by the curb as well, allowing traffic to flow normally again.

As Yvonne opened the door, Nina grabbed her hand, concern in her eyes. Yvonne turned back to reassure her friend. "It's alright, Nina. I'm craving some barbeque ribs. Could you ask your helper to prepare it for me?"
