Becky didn’t want to waste her breath with Devin, so she said, “Okay.”

She gestured at Jessie and then walked towards Talia’s car.

Devin stopped her. “If you take your assistant’s car, what will she drive on the way back? It’s so late. It’s not safe for a woman to take a taxi at this hour.”

Becky glanced at Talia. She knew that she couldn’t leave Talia alone like this, so she agreed.

“Thank you, Mr. Stanley.” Becky smiled at Devin.
