“But you can’t stay like this either,” Benjamin said. “It’s getting dark.”

“Either way, don’t tell Abel. Please,” Emmeline pleaded with teary eyes..

Tony and Benjamin exchanged glances, not fully understanding the situation, but decided not to press further.

“Benjamin, you take Emmeline to the guesthouse and find some clothes for her to change into,” Tony said. Benjamin drove his inspection vehicle and brought Emmeline to the nearby Transport Guesthouse.

In the lobby, they encountered a tall, slender girl dressed in a Transport uniform. Her hair was tied up, and she had a pretty face with delicate features.

“Who’s this, Captain York? Who did you bring here?” The girl’s tone was clearly unfriendly.

“Janie, don’t be nosy,” Benjamin said. “She’s a friend’s younger sister, and I need you to look after her.”

“So, she’s your sister?” Janie Eastwood quirked a brow. You seem to have a lot of sisters. Am I one of them?”

“Enough yapping. Will you help or not?”

“I’ll help! I’m just teasing you.” Janie rolled her eyes. “I didn’t say I won’t help, did I? Look at how pitiful she seems.
