A Graduation Gift

"Miss Qin, I have no choice. There's a person inside the hotel who has been waiting for you. He told me to drive you here. Please go inside and meet him. When you're done, I will drive you to the place you want to go,"

The driver relayed to her while looking at her through the rear view mirror. He had a bashful smile on his face. Clearly, he knew that what he was doing wasn't right.

"What the hell? Why are you doing this? You are a taxi driver, and I am your client. How could you ask me to get off halfway? Besides, how could you sell me out like this? It's ridiculous! I won't go!"

Cassandra bellowed in a furious tone. Of course, she didn't want to go inside the hotel to see some mysterious man. She didn't know who wanted to see her for God's sake! It was pretty dangerous and precarious, and she wasn't willing to take the risk.

"Miss Qin, please, just listen to me. Please don't make it hard for me. I was left with no other choice. I can't get cross with any one of them. But I promise that you will be safe going in. I swear with my honesty! I will be waiting for you here. And if you don't come out in two hours, I will call the police for you,"

The driver said in a careful yet persuasive tone while smiling awkwardly at Cassandra. He just hoped that he could get this task done as soon as possible.

"Your honesty? Do you have any honesty at all? You just sold me out for God's sake!"

Cassandra didn't know what to say anymore. She felt so angry with the driver right now. She wasn't expecting such weird incident would happen to her.
