Faye sat in the car with her headphones on. She was tuning into the conversation between Clint and Lizzie. A grin formed on her face—it seemed like the two had taken the bait.Content, Faye whistled and cruised leisurely on the road. However, after a while, she suddenly sensed a car tailing her. She grinned slightly and deliberately decelerated. She wanted to assess what was the deal with the car.The individual in the car seemed wary of being noticed by her and matched her slowing pace.Unable to decipher their intentions, Faye didn't want to waste any more time. She swiftly hit the gas, pushing the inconspicuous old car to high speeds. Meanwhile, the car behind realized her abrupt maneuver, but was too tardy to catch up.Faye's driving skills were top-notch.

The moment Faye finished up her tasks, the police came knocking on her car window. Faye stepped out of the car and cooperatively gave a statement to the police.When asked about her rescue efforts, Faye added a touch of exaggeration, saying, "The situation was dire. I was driving cautiously. So, this allowed me to maneuver and avoid the crash. However, the car behind me was speeding and couldn't brake in time. I watched the collision happen. Thankfully, the other cars behind managed to stop in the nick of time."She vividly recounted the scene and added, "I didn't overthink it. I just felt that with such a massive fire, the people inside the car were in grave danger if they didn't get out. From a young age, my mom taught me to stand up for what's right and never back down when it's time to act. Plus, I've had some nursing training, so I know how to provide urgent assistance. That's why I didn't hesitate to help."The police commended Faye, praising her for not exceeding the speed

"Don't assume that rescuing my Grandpa means you can exploit the Keane family," she told Anthon. " Grandpa used my connections to secure your release, so there are no lingering obligations between you and the Keane family."Anthon lowered his gaze and smiled. "Understood, Ms. Keane. Mr. Keane Senior did me a significant favor, and I am immensely grateful. How could I dare harbor ulterior motives? Moreover, I never intended to inconvenience Mr. Keane Senior. It just so happened that he overheard my call and generously offered help. Meeting someone as magnanimous as him has been an immense stroke of luck for me."Anthon's comment su

Time seemed to stand still in that moment.Faye didn't know how to describe her own feelings anymore.She wanted to push Cedric away, but she felt like it would be an overreaction. However, if she didn't, she would feel extremely awkward.Cedric stiffened for a moment before gently embracing her. Then, he patted her back gently and comforted her.Faye had the sudden urge to dig herself a hole and hide in it forever. She honestly had no intention of throwing herself into Cedric's embrace.Faye had only stumbled into Cedric's arms because the man had suddenly tugged her toward him.

She ended up slipping and falling into Cedric's arms.She was in a dilemma at that moment.
