After Hearst had good rest at home, he went straight to work. A touch of depression overpowered Cathy. For reasons she didn't know, she kept thinking about what Gavin had said. In recent days, she knew Hearst treated her well. However, she felt empty in her heart.
"Does he like me? Or he really loves Heidy?" muttered Cathy.
Thinking of that, she stood up, picked up her phone and walked outside. She wanted to take a walk alone so that she could feel better. It wasn't so hot since it had just rained this morning and the street was a bit crowded. She walked slowly on the road, lost in thought.
Looking at the strange streets in front of her, Cathy suddenly felt that none of these seemed suitable for her. She liked Hearst, and she liked staying with him. But somehow she felt something was missing. But she couldn't figure out the specific reason. For love, her world was totally blank.
She kept walking forward and occasionally turned a corner. When she came to her senses, she got lost. Looking at the busy street in front of her, Cathy was a little nervous. "Oh, I don't know where this is?"
Though she had been to A city for a while, she was still unfamiliar with it. In the past, Hearst seldom took her out. Even if she went out with him, he wouldn't show her around. So until now, she still had not been familiar with the road.
She took out her phone. In addition to her grandmother's phone number, she could only see Hearst's. She immediately called Hearst, but he didn't answer. She called him for several times, but no one answered. Seeing this, Cathy gave up and drooped her hands. "It seems that he is busy now. What should I do? Just wait for him here?"
Cathy had lived in the village since she was a child. Looking at so many people, she felt a little nervous instinctively. Standing there, she didn't know what to do. She heard that there were many bad people in the city. When she was thinking about what to do, a clear and pleasant voice came, "Little girl, why are you standing in the way?"
Scared by the sudden sound, Cathy stepped back quickly. Seeing the smiling man in front of her, her heart was tightened. He was a handsome man with a bright smile on his lips. And that man was no other than James.
Seeing that she didn't reply, James shook his hand in front of her and asked, "Girl, are you okay? I hope I didn't frighten you."
Hearing this, Cathy came to her senses. She shook her hands and stepped back alertly. "No, No."
Seeing her worried look, James sat on a bicycle and asked curiously, "Do I look scary to you?"
Cathy looked at her from head to toe. She was a little nervous and felt that he was a bad guy. She remembered that when she was a child, her grandmother had told her not to talk to strangers. Because they all had ulterior motives. Thinking of this, she became more vigilant.
Seeing that she went silent again, James was confused about her reaction. He smiled and said, "Girl, can you step aside? You are in my way."
James liked bicycle. He would spend a part of his time riding a bicycle every day. It was not until then that Cathy realized that she was in the way. She said apologetically, "I'm sorry."
James waved his hand and went pass her. After riding for a long distance, James turned around and turned back. "Girl, according your accent, it seems that you are not from A city. Where did you come from? Do you need any help?"
His enthusiasm made Cathy's vigilance soar. She crossed her arms before her chest, and asked nervously, "What do you want to do?"
"Don't get me wrong. I just saw you, who came from another city, standing here blankly. Is there anything wrong? I'm a kind man, so I wonder if you need my help. I look so innocent and I don't look like a bad person, do I?" James said smilingly.
Cathy looked carefully at the smiling man in front of her and asked with hesitation, "So you are not a bad person?"
James knew that his reputation was doubted. He took out his ID card from his pocket and showed it to her. "This is my ID card. Now you believe that I am not a bad person, right?"
Looking at her ID card, Cathy finally decided to believe in him. She nodded and said, "Well, I believe in you. I'm lost. Can you drive me to the J.Y group?" Since she didn't know the address of Hearst's villa, she could only go to the J.Y group to find him.
"So you work at the J.Y group. Of course I know it. I'm quite familiar with it there. Hop on, I'll take you there," James agreed immediately.
Holding James's ID card in her hand, Cathy nodded and sat on his bicycle. "Hold tight, I will be fast." James gave a slight smile. Then he trod on the bicycle and rode forward fast.
