Chapter 3 Life Was Really not in Her Control!

Watching the two women's backs, Eric heaved a long sigh. He really couldn't understand how his father tolerated a woman like his mother. But one thing was for sure – there was true love between them.

"What's your name? Why does my son want to send you to the police station?" Kate threw her arm around Lily's shoulders as they walked out of the airport.

"Well, I'm Lily Brown. I asked your son to do so because my passport and ID card were stolen as soon as I got off the plane. Without these things, I can't live in a hotel here." Lily felt uneasy about the woman's enthusiasm. After all, they had just met.

Hearing that, Kate became more determined not to let Eric drive this girl to the police. Lily was alone in a foreign country and had even confronted a theft; how pitiful she was!

Eric just followed them quietly and listened to their conversation.

"Son, don't send her to the police. We should take her home and help her find her things. Before that, she'll live in our home!" Kate suddenly turned around and said in a tone that couldn't be retorted.

Lily didn't want to make it hard for Eric and waved her hands hastily. "No, thanks! Just send me to the police station. They will help me with this."

Lily was not an unreasonable girl. Besides, she had just known them and didn't dare to go with strangers.

"Lily, just ignore him. He's always poker-faced, but we're not bad people. So don't worry. Besides, you can't stay in the police station all these days, right? Just follow me to my house." Kate liked this girl, who matched her son very well, at the very first sight.

When they stood together, Kate had felt that they would be a perfect couple, for no reason.

Sometimes, fate brought two people together when they didn't even realize it.

Kate's help made Lily feel warm inside. But she was downhearted enough about losing important things abroad, for which she couldn't do anything, and she would be despaired if she met any other bad people.

If she had stayed at home as usual, she wouldn't have confronted such things. At this moment, she was more than regretful of her decision.

Just when she wanted to decline Kate's offer, Eric spoke.

"What are you worried about? I don't mind taking in a girl, though she's troublesome." he said to her.

Obviously, he allowed her to go home with them.

"I..." When she wanted to say something, she was dragged into the car instantly.

Actually, she really wanted to reject their help!

If they were bad people, what should she do then? She was still a pure virgin! Although she wasn't fluent in the local language, she would be at least safe in the police station. Even if she was driven back to her own country, she would take it as a blessing.

She wanted to jump off the car, but somehow, her feet didn't obey her.

Life was really not in her control!

When the car was about to start, she suddenly yelled, for she remembered something important.
