He was going as fast as he could. It was frustrating that even his sports car couldn’t keep up with an e–bike.
“Isabel, am I impressive?” Blake asked, thrilled to have outpaced the Ferrari.

“You don’t get it: this is what compemon among guys is about, I won’t let anyone take my girl!”

“Maybe they always saw me as an easy target, Isabel said.
Blake asked attentively. “Did you often put up with their bullying before?”

To calm Guinevere down, David quickly took out his phone. I’ll call Soren right now and demand a real explanation. If he can’t give it, I promise Ill make him pay
As he tried to contact Soren, the call wouldn’t go through, making him want to throw his phone out of frustration, “Damn it What’s that guy doing? Why isnt he answering?”
