CHAPTER 48 Is it a date?

  The scorching sun beat down mercilessly on Oliver as he approached the car park. His steps quickened as he caught sight of Emma, her face tense as she engaged in a heated argument with a group of security men. Concerned, Oliver hurried over, intent on diffusing the escalating situation.

  “Emma, what's going on?” Oliver interjected, hoping to divert her attention away from the confrontation.

  Emma turned towards Oliver, her eyes aflame with anger.

  “These security men are harassing me, Oliver!” she exclaimed, her voice dripping with frustration. She pointed an accusatory finger at the security personnel, their faces stern and unwavering.

  Oliver scanned the scene, trying to gain some clarity amidst the chaos. Sensing that there might be more to the story, he turned towards the security men and questioned their actions, his tone measured but firm.

  “Why are you treating a woman this way?” he inquired, searching for an explanation.
