Chapter 31: Hiding
Martina didn’t know where she should go. She felt like she truly had no place to call home.

The driver looked at Martina wearing a mask, her eyes red, and asked her enthusiastically where she came from and where she was going.

He was probably worried that Martina might do something reckless due to her state of mind, so he deliberately asked.

Martina forced herself to remain composed and lied, “I’m sorry. I’m a bit tired and would like to rest for a while. I originally came here for sightseeing but found out that the hotel I booked was a scam. Now I have nowhere to go.”

“So, she continued, “could you please help me find a hotel? Money is not a problem, I can pay you. Just as long as it’s safe.”

The driver was truly a compassionate individual, and his inherent kindness made it

impossible for him to turn down Martina’s modest plea.

“No problem. Coincidentally, there’s a homestay near my house. It’s not expensive, and

it’s very safe. The owner has three sons who are responsible for the security of the

homestay!” the driver said. “If you trust me, I’ll take you there!”

Martina agreed, but she asked in advance, “But I forgot to bring my ID. Can I still stay

without it?”

The driver was really compassionate, saying, “Well, it’s no problem. We can just use

mine for now.”

The driver explained, “You look miserable, and you appear to be around the same age

as my daughter. That’s why I want to help you.’
