"I'M FINE," Angeline insisted, assuring him and herself.
"But what if you weren't?" Fire blazed in his gray eyes as his grip on her tightened. "You're just gullible, which pushing me to the edge.."
Ugh! Her mind's reaction. She wanted to say something but pretended not to hear him say that last word. Besides, he wasn't hurting her, but his intensity was extreme, confusing her. And she was frowning while looking at him.
Jacob saw the way she looked at him and cursed himself in his head. He pulled up the car.
"I'm sorry," he said calmly, looking at her with a friendly smile. "That man alarmed me, that's all."
"Okay, but I don't feel bad since no harm's done," Angeline said, smiling. "But thank you. I guess you're right about him."
