"Hey, beautiful. I think I'm going to have to change my opinion of you."
The SUV cruised steadily down the wide road.
Andrew Shaw sat in the back, studying Stella Sterling intently. As if struck by a sudden thought, he broke the silence.
Stella Sterling tilted her head slightly, looking at him and waiting for him to continue.
Andrew Shaw looked at her and said earnestly, "You're a good person. You're kind to the core."
He had to admit, ever since they first met, he'd held a certain preconceived notion about Stella Sterling.
He'd thought she was a twisted maniac who enjoyed toying with people's lives.
But after spending the last few days with her, he couldn't help but change his opinion, even though he was still terrified of her deep down.
She was kind to the core—kinder than most people.
It had been true back in the abandoned city, and it was true again this time when she saved those people.
He had to admire her. With her kind of power, she had no reason to fear anyone.
