skin subsided. So, she stepped out of the car and stated, “President Presgrave, please drive carefully on the way
home.”
“Could you give me a drink in your house? I’m a little thirsty,” Jared suddenly asked Ellen. Then, she turned her
head and looked toward the store. “Wait for me here!”

too thirsty.”
