Chapter 0148

A gleaming red Porsche rolled to a halt at the community’s threshold.

Given the age of the neighborhood, the roads were tight. Alexander narrowed his eyes at the last

available parking spot and, with a steady hand, guided the car ever

Carmela, steadying Missus Thompson, eyed the Porsche from afar. Her excitement quickly soured into

annoyance, and she spun on her heel to head back.

“Happy birthday, Grandma!”

Amber, with Olivia in tow, stepped out from the passenger side, beaming.” Remember her, Olivia? This

is your great–grandma, and over there is your aunt.”

Olivia, ever so polite, began to greet the family, but the response was muted.

wheels, then found their gazes glued to the Porsche that had just upstaged the anticipated arrival.

The bright red Porsche HBLY–GT stood out with its sleek curves and the gentle purr of its engine,

exuding an aura of luxury that was hard to miss.

Toyotas, and Volkswagens that dotted their streets.
