Bill and the other two men were driven to distraction by the passengers and nearly prevented from getting off the train.

“No, we’re not selling her to you. Get lost!” Tobias, already at his wits‘ end, brandished a knife in one hand and gripped Quinlyn’s collar with the other. He cursed his misfortune in not having gagged her earlier, which had led to this current predicament.

Over the past three days, Quinlyn had been unusually obedient.

Apart from an incident on the first day, she had mostly stayed within the carriage, helping others by fetching water, preparing instant noodles, and occasionally giving shoulder massages to a few women.

Before they realized it, she had endeared herself to everyone on the carriage.

Some of the wealthy women even offered a high price for her, and had it not been for orders from above, Bill and the others would have gladly accepted the offer right then and there.

Throughout the journey, people kept greeting Quinlyn.

“Kid, remember to stay strong in the new place. If you make it big, give me a call. I’ll take you out for fun,” one woman said.

“Right, as long as you’re alive, you’ll never run out of options. Just contact us once the money is in hand, and we’ll come for you,” another added.

Quinlyn thanked everyone for their kindness before getting off the train with the group.

A SUV was waiting at the station to pick them up. As soon as they got in, the driver, glancing at them through the rear–view mirror, remarked in surprise, “Why are you guys nabbing kids now and hauling them such a long distance?

“Still, this girl’s really good–looking, with such delicate skin. On previous trips, after a few days on the train, the women were all a mess. This one, though, looks full of life and color.”

At this, the three men fell silent. Of course, Quinlyn appeared vibrant; she had been eating well and sleeping soundly, living a more comfortable life than they had.

Right now, she was casually eating snacks given by a passenger and taking in the scenery outside.

Tobias, annoyed by the sight, snatched the snack from her and starts munching on it himself.

Quinlyn turned to him and muttered, “That’s mine.”
