The car window rolled down, and he honked the horn. "Get in."
Only then did Nora Ainsworth run up to the window with a smile. "You don't have to. You two can just go on ahead."
Quentin Grant raised an eyebrow. "Are you deaf? Get in!"
Catherine Callahan looked a little reluctant, but she didn't say anything.
Nora Ainsworth had no choice but to nod. "Well, thank you then."
It was a necessary pleasantry.

Nora Ainsworth quickly turned her head, pointedly looking away.
"Quentin, should we take Miss Ainsworth home first?" Catherine Callahan suddenly suggested.
Quentin Grant's voice was low. "I'm taking you home first."
Catherine Callahan turned around. "Miss Ainsworth, do you live far from here? If you're closer, we can drop you off first."
"I'm living in the Riverbend District right now," Nora Ainsworth said with an awkward smile.
