"Amanda, come back! Amanda!" Jessica's desperate calls fell on deaf ears as Amanda got into a taxi and left.

Jessica cursed under her breath, then turned to Caleb, who seemed utterly bored by the unfolding drama.

"Look, delivery boy..." Jessica attempted to command the situation.

"Oh, I intend to look.... all night," Caleb replied, allowing his eyes to leisurely trace her body from head to toe. "Now, follow me."

The thought of anything remotely intimate with Caleb made her stomach churn, but she clenched her fists and did as she was told.

Ten minutes later, Caleb and Jessica entered a room in the dimly lit motel.

She hesitated, glancing around the cheap surroundings. "Seriously, this hotel is so cheap. Then again, what would you know about anything classy?" She clung to her arrogance, despite the fact that he had just saved her.

    Caleb gazed out the car window, the passing scenery a blur, as Frank navigated the road to college."Those Bennett brothers are the worst kind. Marcus thinks he's some big shot because he's got a bit of influence in the underworld, and Mario, well, he's just a loudmouth with a penchant for causing trouble," Frank explained with a scoff. "They thrive on preying on the vulnerable, using fear to maintain their shaky dominance."His tone suggested a personal distaste for their actions and attitudes."But what irks me the most is their lack of honor. No code, no principles—just a couple of opportunistic thugs trying to act tough," he added, shaking his head in disapproval.
