Ellie was in shock.

She glanced over at Ryan again.

Ryan had seen the scene, too, but his brow was still furrowed, tight with concern.

There was no denying it; they both knew that even if Keira charged ahead, she wouldn't catch up. And even if she did... what could she possibly do?

He slammed on the brakes, desperate to get them to respond.

But nothing happened!

Taking a deep breath, Ryan focused on the road ahead.

He inhaled sharply; pulling the handbrake wouldn't do any good. Just then, he heard Ellie shout, "She's catching up!"

Ryan blinked and glanced in the rearview mirror.
