“Can you cook?” Melvin suddenly asked, catching her off guard.
Jessica froze, momentarily speechless. Cooking was not her forte. Would he really deny her the chance to move

Jessica answered without missing a beat. “Tomorrow—it’s Saturday.”
Melvin gave a curt nod. “Noted. Sendyour address. I'll swing by when traffic dies down.”
Without hesitation, Jessica wrote her current address and was about to send it when she had a serious thought.

She resided in a high-end villa area. Wouldn't Melvin discover that her claim to have rented an apartment was a
lie if he stopped by?
