Sitting in the car, Claudia didn't hurry to fasten her seatbelt.

Instead, she turned to Bennett and held his hand when he got in the driver's seat. “Don't be angry anymore, okay?"

Bennett turned to look at her hopeful eyes and smiled slightly. “I'm not angry."

“Really?”

He raised his hand to touch her face. "If I was still angry, then I would have done more than just get you away from that situation."
