Chapter 146

Daniel ruefully thought about the dessert that he missed out on right before he thought of other ways that she could 'repay' him but immediately dismissed them. He mentally chastised himself for even thinking lewd thoughts about a woman who'd just been in danger. If his mother were alive she'd probably kill him for even considering the thought of bedding a woman that he'd just saved. Shaking his head to clear those thoughts from his mind, he gave her a sad smile. "There's no need, ma'am. I'm just happy to help."
The woman seemed surprised at this. "Nothing?" she asked, blinking at him in disbelief. "Nothing at all?"
Daniel shook his head again. "Nope, just be safe out there," he said as he moved to continue on to his apartment.
