The reaction would have been crazier if the entire truth about the reason Mark was knocked out was revealed.
Would he dare to say he was going to take advantage of Elena but ended up getting knocked out at the end?
Mark would never do that. And as if in sync, Elena left things that way.

"Have you driven a sports car before?" Mark asked Elena as they made their way out of the room.
"No. Is there a problem?" Elena turned to meet his gaze. "Not really. Can you drive?" he asked, changing the question and Elena gave a positive response.
"I am a little tipsy," Mark admitted, taking her hand in his. "Do you mind giving us a ride?" he asked in a gentle voice.
