Jane was a bit sincere when she said this. Indeed, she approached Martha with a purpose.
But as a woman, she felt sorry for Martha.
Martha trusted her very much, and so did Jimmy.
She admired Martha's toughness and felt sorry for Martha's misfortune.
The man said slowly, "I won't allow such things to happen."
He sounded unquestionable.
He seemed born with the power to reassure others.
Jane thought for a while, and asked tentatively, "What identity will you use to meet Miss Doyle, sir?"
The man didn't answer.
His silence made Jane hold her breath. Looking at the man's side face in the rear mirror, Jane recalled how they first met.
It was winter.
Having lost her parents at a young age, Jane had been making a living by herself abroad.
She worked and studied at the same time. One night, on her way back from work, she was stopped by some drunkards, who robbed her of money and wanted to rape her.
There were very few pedestrians on the street on such a snowy day
She had no friends in that country and therefore could ask no one for help.
She was extremely desperate when her clothes were ripped off by those men. All she wished at the moment was to die.
Just then, he appeared.
Stepping on the snow, he showed up against the light. He knocked over those people with his fists and rescued her from desperation.
He saved her life.
She owed him a debt of gratitude and she would do whatever he asked to repay him.
At that time, her clothes were stained with snow. Her face was dirty. She looked like a mess. Meanwhile, he was delicately dressed, looking noble.
The fight with the hooligans left no trace of panic on his face. He looked neat, confident, and indifferent.
