Chapter 35 He Overestimated Her Importance
The girl kneeling on the ground brought back memories for Elianna. In her memories, she had also knelt on the ground, desperately pleading.
The girl grabbed the hem of Elianna's clothes, "Please let me in and hide for a while. I promise I won't drag you into it. I'm really scared."
With her thin face and eyes filled with pleading, she looked pitiful no matter how you looked at her.
Elianna's gaze went from dazed to touched, and the girl saw victory in her eyes.
"Sister, please help me."
Elianna looked down at her, and her tone was indifferent, "If you don't want to stay here, why do you go to the top floor?"
When the girl heard this, a hint of annoyance flashed through her lowered eyes.
She glanced in the direction Case had gone. Her plan was to deceive Elianna by getting her inside and then have Elianna help her get rid of Case.
Otherwise, if Case came back and found Elianna dead, she would have no way to escape.
Thinking of this, the girl continued to play the pity card, "There are people watching outside. I can't leave. Sister, you're also a woman. Please help me. I've worked so hard to escape, and I don't want to be a prostitute."
Elianna furrowed her brows.
She had been tricked by Clare once, and she couldn't unconditionally trust a stranger.
But, what if what she said was true?
If her lack of trust ended up ruining this girl's only chance to escape...
The girl's words touched her. She was also a woman, and she couldn't turn a blind eye to a girl seeking help.
"Fine, come in with me."
The girl quickly stood up. "Thank you, sister. Once I escape, you'll be my savior."
The girl followed behind Elianna, and her eyes were scanning the surroundings and settled on the safe.
Coincidentally, as soon as they entered, Case came back.
Case knocked on the door, "Ms. Gentry, your water."
Under the girl's pleading gaze, Elianna went to open the door.
She stood at the doorway, pulling the door halfway open. "Give it to me."
