In the car, she looked at Felix Rhodes and said, "Why did you come rushing over this early? I already thanked you for last night."
"Where to? I'll have the driver take you."
"No need, once you're done talking, I'll get off."
"Didn't you say you had work later?"
"Not for now, I just want to go home and sleep."
Felix said, "In that case, let me take you somewhere."
After speaking, he told the driver, "Let's go."
Vivian Bell sat in the car, even more uneasy than last night.
She had drunk some alcohol last night and wasn't as flustered as now; sitting here with him, she was much more sober, which made things awkward.
...
Because she was busy noticing his presence, when the car stopped and she realized where she was, Vivian was somewhat surprised.
Felix had already opened the car door and got out.
Vivian sat inside the car, looking at the familiar yard, feeling unexpected.
Felix stood at the doorway, his voice gentle, "Come down."
