Suzy blinked for a moment before realizing he had simply stated his name.
"Thomas Kim?" she repeated.
He gave a small nod.
"I'm Suzy," she said.
"Mm."
And that was the extent of their introductions.
The black SUV rolled steadily down the long, sun-drenched highway.
Even in silence, Thomas's presence was overwhelming. He didn't need to speak—his sheer physicality filled the confined space of the car.
They were strangers. Suzy didn't know what to say to a man like him, so she lowered her head and scrolled through her phone.
Adam had already learned that she'd arrived in M Country and had messaged to check on her.
She replied briefly, assuring him everything was fine, and added that she would treat him to dinner once she returned home. She still hadn't properly thanked him for advancing the payment for the medicines.
Two hours later, they arrived at her hotel.
She slept peacefully through the night.
