Come With Me novel Chapter 197

When I followed her out, Xenia had already gone out, and the food on the table was still hot.

I called Xenia two times, but she didn't answer the phone.

It was getting late and Xenia didn't come back. It was not her style. I couldn't help but worry about her.

I remembered it was about nine o'clock at night when I suddenly received a message from a strange number. "Your friend drank too much in the Lego. I found your phone number in her phone. I wonder if you can come to pick her up."

At that time, Xenia came into my mind. Out of concern for her, I knew that she was not in a good mood these days because of the matter between me and Vann, so I didn't think too much and quickly changed my clothes.

In order to avoid the reporters and avoid making trouble for myself at this time, I deliberately disguised myself and hurried out of the door.

When I arrived at the gate of the community, I thought it would be difficult to get a taxi. I wondered if it would take me a long time to get a taxi.

But a car stopped beside me. The man accosted me, "Miss, do you need a car?"

I saw that the car in front of me was not a taxi, so I was a little hesitant. But that person quickly explained to me, "It's my second job to do some private work and earn some money. I just sent a guest here and then I saw you come out of the community. So I wonder if you need a car to send you somewhere or not."

While saying this, the driver pointed at the phone hanging inside the car, on which there was a software for receiving orders.

I kind of believed him. The man then pointed at the mask on his face and said, "Don't worry. I'm not a bad guy. I just caught a cold and wore it because I was afraid of infecting the guests. Don't you think so? You also wear a mask yourself."

At that time, I was also thinking about Xenia. When I looked up, I didn't see any taxi, so I got in the car. "Send me to the Lego, thank you."

"Okay. It's usually thirty dollars from here to the Lego. But today I'll only charge you twenty dollars."

"Thank you."

The man looked at me from the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "It's my pleasure. If you don't spend much time at the Lego, I can wait for you and take you back to your community again."

After thinking for a while, I said, "I'm going to pick up a friend in the Lego. I will come out soon. If you're not busy, you can wait for me for a while. You don't need to give me a discount. I will give you thirty dollars."

"I know people like you who can live in this kind of neighborhood are rich ones. In fact, I didn't expect that I would be so lucky today that I can send another guest to somewhere before coming back home."

The driver just chatted with me casually, but after a while, we hadn't arrived at the Lego, so I looked out of the window.

Logically speaking, even if we didn't arrive at the Lego at the moment, we should enter the bustling section. But it was dark outside, and even the street lights were rarely seen.

At that time, a trace of vigilance arose in my heart. "It seems that this is not the way to the Lego, right?" I asked the driver.

The driver still comforted me with a smile, "Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. I'll take a detour to pick up my daughter first. Today is her birthday. I promised her to buy her a birthday cake. It won't take much time."

The driver then continued, "We are not rich. Not everyone can live in such a good community like you. I don't have the ability to earn much money, so I can only take the child to live in such a remote place."
