"Where are you?" Alex asked on the phone, a bit worried that she was running late.
She had left the office almost an hour ago. She was bound to be home at this time. Yet, he had continually checked his watch, and she was already late by more than a quarter of an hour.
He was about to call his bodyguards, but luckily she answered on the second ring. He was not anxious because he feared that something might have happened to her. He had a different reason.
"I am just a block away. There was a traffic build-up not far from here because of a car accident." Dani answered him, explaining why she was still on the road, staring at the street outside the window of the backseat.
She knew she was capable of driving herself to work from home to her office. But Alex insisted that one of her bodyguards chauffeured her around.
