In the northern district, Tina looked at the olddy in front of her with a cold expression and said, “Stop following me.”


    The olddy, appearing pitiful, begged her, “Youngdy, please be kind to the end and take me with you into the city. I don’t have a penny to my name, and I’ve lost my phone; I can’t contact my family.”


    “I’m not a good person!” Tina growled in frustration.


    The biggest mistake she had made in her life was acting out of kindness once to save this olddy, which had brought nothing but trouble upon her.


    She hade down from Serenity Ridge that morning, nning to catch the nearest ne to Ensford, but right after leaving Serenity Ridge, she encountered a few people troubling the olddy, demanding she hand something over. Feeling sorry for her, Tina had drugged those people and rescued the olddy.


    Little did she know, the olddy had be a sticky burden, insisting on sticking with her.


    Tina had asked for the olddy’s home address, which turned out to be in the capital, so she had decided to show some kindness by getting her on a ne, as she was heading to the airport anyway.


    However, on the way to the airport, they were ambushed again. Tina, not wanting to waste time, dealt with it promptly.


    Unexpectedly, they encountered seven or eight different groups of people along the way, all from different organizations.


    She didn’t know who the olddy was or whom she had angered, but she felt like spitting blood because she had missed her flight to Ensford because of this olddy.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    She left the olddy behind and walked away, but the olddy stuck to her like glue.


    Wherever Tina went, the olddy followed.


    With no other choice, Tina had to bring the olddy along. She initially nned to have Cole arrange a car to take them to Ensford but, considering the olddy’s mysterious identity, she did not want to expose Cole and instead hired a private car.


    On the way to Ensford, the pursuers were relentless. Since they were in a car, she couldn’t drug them, and they started ramming their vehicle.


    The driver, terrified, refused to continue and abandoned them in the middle of nowhere.


    Tina felt like dying. After dealing with the pursuers, she decided she wouldn’t take the olddy with her no matter what and walked away.


    Fortunately, the ce where the driver left them was not far from Ensford, so she walked into the city.


    However, the olddy kept following her, probably realizing she had caused trouble, keeping her distance and not daring to speak to Tina.


    But now, the people after the olddy had taken notice of Tina, and they stopped pursuing the olddy and started troubling her instead.


    Tina had run out of drugs and had no choice but to fight.


    At that moment, Tina was furious.


    “You are a good person!” the olddy said earnestly. “Though your face is cold, your heart is warm. Youngdy, I know I’ve caused you a lot of trouble. Rest assured, once I find my family, I will repay you. Please, do me this favor and take me with you. Just get me to the airport.”


    Tina, expressionless, replied, “For thest time, stop following me.”


    With that said, she turned to leave.


    The olddy hurriedly stopped her, “Then, could you lend me some money? We’ve already reached Ensford; those people probably won’te looking for me anymore. Can I take a taxi to the airport by myself?”


    Tina pinched the bridge of her nose, “I don’t have cash, only my phone. How can I lend you money if you’ve lost your phone?”


    “This…” The olddy seemed on the verge of tears, “Then, please take me with you? My son and I just wanted to go to Serenity Ridge to find Master Tam. Who knew we would be hunted down, and we got separated. I don’t even know the way back, or else I wouldn’t trouble you. Please, take pity on this old woman.”


    Tina’s gaze sharpened, “Master Tam?”


    She knew Master Tam?


    “Yes, we heard that Master Tam is living in seclusion at Serenity Ridge. We have something to ask him, but the terrain in Serenity Ridge is tooplicated. We’ve attempted several times but never managed to get up there. Youngdy, do you know Master Tam?”


    Tina stared at her for a long time, then after a moment of silence, she asked, “What is your rtion to Master Tam?”


    “We are…” The olddy was about to speak but then realized something and said, “Sorry, youngdy, I can’t tell you about this matter, but I’m definitely not a bad person. Those who are after me are the bad ones.”


    “Do bad people have ‘I am a bad person’ written on their faces?” Tina said with an expressionless face.


    “I swear, I’m really not a bad person.”


    Tina didn’t continue the conversation about good and bad people.


    After pondering for a moment, she said, “I’ll take you to the airport, but if anything goes wrong, don’t follow me.”


    “Okay, okay, no problem, I promise this is thest time. If someone troubles me again, then it must be my fate. I won’t follow you anymore.”


    Tina said nothing more and continued walking with the olddy.


    They had just entered the northern district, which was still remote with no taxis in sight, so they had to walk further to hail a cab.


    Just as they took a few steps, a car approached.


    Tina looked up and was momentarily stunned-it was Jared’s car.


    The car stopped in front of her, Jared pushed the door open and stepped out, quickly walking towards her, “Tina, what happened?”


    Tina stared at his legs in surprise, “You?”


    Wasn’t he pretending to be disabled?


    Not even using a wheelchair?


    Then, Hayden and Nathan got out of the car, “We finally found you. You don’t know how worried Mr. Farrell was that something happened to you. He left the hotel without his wheelchair and got straight into the car. Thankfully, you’re alright.”


    A warm feeling suddenly passed through Tina’s heart, and she felt a bit apologetic, “Sorry, something came up and dyed me. Should we reschedule the engagement?”


    The engagement was set for twelve o’clock, and it was nearly one now. It was likely that both families wouldn’t wait any longer.


    Jared touched her head, “It’s fine that you’re safe. There’s no need to postpone the engagement; I’ve exined everything to them, and they are still at the hotel.”


    Tina nodded, “Then let’s go.”


    Only then did Jared notice the olddy beside Tina, “Who is this?”


    “Someone I saved on the road. We’ll go to the hotel first, and you can arrange for someone to take her to the airportter,” Tina said.


    Jared had only brought one car, and there was definitely no time to take the olddy to the airport now.


    Jared nodded, and then they all got into the car.


    At the hotel, Jared tasked Nathan with taking the olddy to the airport.


    Before leaving, the olddy stopped Tina, “Youngdy, may I know your name? Once I safely return home, I’ll have my familye and thank you.”


    “There’s no need! I hope we never meet again.”


    The olddy looked a bit disheartened but did not insist further, “I’m sorry for the trouble I caused you. I’m leaving now, youngdy. I wish you a happy engagement and a life filled with happiness.”


    After the olddy left, Jared, Tina, and Hayden went up to the hotel.


    In the elevator, Tina suddenly turned to Jared, “You’re just going up like this?”


    Jared shed a smile, “It’s time for me to be able to stand on my feet now.”
