Chloe was standing by the roadside without an umbrella, waiting for a ride-hailing car.

Five minutes later, Joseph emerged from the underground parking lot. He rolled down the car window halfway to reveal his noble face. “Get in. It’s going to be a stormy night, and you won’t be able to get a cab.”
