Mike kept following Rhea but had not detected anything unusual until he went around the city for the second time.
‘She doesn’t seem to be trying to get rid of me. Did she…notice me following her?’
The car before him suddenly sped up as he thought of that. Then he floored the gas pedal without thinking and gave chase. The two cars raced along the street in the quiet night.
At that moment, Mike was almost sure Rhea knew someone was following her and that she had intentionally wandered in circles. After realizing that, Mike no longer bothered to stay unnoticed and soon caught up with her car.
Suddenly, Rhea began to slow down.
However, Mike maintained his speed and overtook her car. He made a sharp turn, and his car swung into position before hers.
Rhea responded swiftly and braked, just in time to stop her car from crashing into his.
Mike opened the car door, stepped out, and marched over.
Rhea leisurely stared at him while remaining seated in her car. Although Mike could not see her face due to what she was wearing, he knew from her manner that she was pleased with herself.
He knocked on her car window and bent over. Rhea lowered the window and cocked her head as she looked at him. “Yes?”
