Chapter 48: Temporary Stay
Since this village didn’t have any official resort plans, there wasn’t a dedicated hotel or inn here..

Fortunately, the people here, both in terms of personality and character, were quite nice.

A widow and her daughter, who lived together as a small family, were willing to accommodate Martina and let her stay with them.

Of course, Martina didn’t stay for free; instead, she gave them $1000 directly.

The main reason she chose this family was not their living conditions, but rather the fact that they were a mother and daughter duo, which provided a sense of safety.

Although Martina was hiding from Benjamin, she also had to ensure her own safety. She couldn’t walk into a dangerous situation. If something were to happen, it would be too late for regrets.

For this family without a man to support them, $1000 would cover their expenses for a long time.

So, they willingly let Martina stay with them.

On the first day of her stay, Martina felt a little uneasy because she couldn’t be certainl if Benjamin would actually do as she had speculated.

Even if Benjamin did decide to investigate, he would most likely go to other places rather than this area.

But considering Benjamin’s unpredictable nature, what if he suddenly showed up with people? Martina would be at a loss.

So, she didn’t feel particularly secure in her accommodation and would occasionally look towards the shore.
