Chapter 139 I Don’t Know Him

She came from a difficult background. A year ago, her father’s gambling addiction led him to borrow money from a high-interest loan shark at the casino.

Unable to repay the debt, he saw her as a means of repayment and sold her to the underground club under Primas Plaza to work as a hostess.

She accompanied customers but did not sell herself. One time, a customer became aggressive and dragged her into a private room, attempting to force himself on her.

During her escape, she ran into Eric.

He helped her. Upon learning about her situation, he not only didn’t look down on her but also provided her with the opportunity to go back to school. At that time, she had already dropped out of school in order to earn money. Without Eric, she wouldn’t have the chance to study now.

Eileen was in her room packing her bags, preparing to leave the hotel. When she went to check out at the front desk, the receptionist informed her that, due to unforeseen circumstances, a snow avalanche had occurred on the mountain, burying the only road out.

The cable car was also out of operation, and there were widespread power outages due to multiple landslides.

The hotel was running on emergency power, which could only last for eight hours.

Emergency services were on-site for rescue operations, including those stranded in cable

cars.

Today was truly an unlucky day.

After encountering an unpleasant person, a series of unfortunate events followed.

She had no idea when the road would clear, and she didn’t bring many clothes with her.

Returning to the hotel room, Eileen opened the door.

Suddenly, a hand behind the door pulled her in. With a forceful push against the door, she found herself facing the person.

Eileen’s heart skipped a beat, but she maintained a calm demeanor, looking at the person with a composed expression. There was no need to pretend they were siblings now that they were alone.
