The men were all around 40 years old. They wear all in suits, looking unfriendly.
Linda's head was blank for a few seconds. She felt like a rabbit bumping into wolves.
The man who entered the last closed the door and blocked it with his wide body, preventing Linda from escaping.
Linda was frightened, her head was working slowly. She didn't even think of escaping.
At the same time, at the bar with loud music on.
Catherine sat at the bar under the cover of lights that kept changing colors, feeling sad.
Surrounded her were pretty girls and boys dancing to the music, frantically shaking their young bodies, as if it was the only way to please their restless hearts.
Catherine didn't drink much. She wasn't out to get drunk. She just didn't want to be alone at home.
Perhaps only here she could temporarily forget about Ivan.
The whole world was celebrating when she was drowning in her deep sorrow. How ironic!
When she was lonely and depressed, Ivan and Jennifer were enjoying life together.
When she was still longing for the past, no one stopped for her, not even looking back at her.
That was the sorrow of the unloved.
The pouring was getting heavier.
A yellow alert had been issued, and taxi drivers all stopped working. Many stores had closed.
Finnley was driving in the storm, following Mya's instruction, after driving most of the city, he finally stopped in front of a villa, "It’s here.”
Finnley was speechless. That was not the direction to his place at all.
Mya refused to say the location, she always said that it was almost there, asking him to turn left, turn right and go straight as if afraid that he would throw her out halfway.
If she said the location, he could have chosen the shortest route.
"Thank you." Mya knew this, but also felt embarrassed, "Have dinner with me another day. My treat.”
After that, she quickly unbuckled her seat belt, opened the car door and got out of the car in the rain, closed the door, and rushed to the villa.
