“I’m not looking for a relationship.”
“So you said.” She sat back down. “Do the flush.”
“No.”
She looked up at him with a frown. “Excuse me?”
“I can’t take your money in good conscience. That’s not how we run this shop. Nobody is here to fleece you. Go home.”
When Alex stood again, she found that her legs were shaking. “Are you seriously telling me to fuck off?”
“Yes.” He watched her grab her purse and grabbed her arm just before she could storm past him. “I’ll get your number off the paperwork and call you sometime.”
She studied him for a long moment. She was having a hard time figuring him out. She only knew that her arm burned where he touched her and her heart raced at the promise in his eyes.Sometimewas better than nothing at all, and it would save her money she really couldn’t afford to waste.
“Thank you.”
Grant couldn’t help watching her leave. There was the tiniest hint of butt cheek as she moved at a fast clip out to the parking lot.
Josh let out a low whistle. “You two seemed pretty intense over there.”
“I just hate to see her spend money foolishly because she doesn’t know cars.”
“You’re very chivalrous.”
Grant ignored Josh’s guffaws and went back to work.
