Daniel walked to Sherry and held the umbrella above her head. “Are you heading to the airport or the railway station? I can give you a ride.”

Sherry let out a hollow laugh. “No, thank you. I’ve got a cab already. It’ll be arriving soon.”

Daniel said, “It’s raining heavier and heavier.”

“Well... It’s fine. My cab is arriving soon. You can leave me here.”

Sherry lifted her cell phone to show him that she got a cab. However, when she raised her hand, she found that the driver had canceled the order.

She was speechless.

That was indeed unlucky.

Seeing that, Daniel secretly curled up his lips. He pulled her suitcase. “Let’s go.”

Sherry still refused. “No, thank you, though. I can...”

“Didn’t you say that neighbors should help each other?”

Back then, Sherry wanted to hook up with him, so she made a lot of excuses such as helping each other. Much to her surprise, Daniel could also make many extravagant excuses.

Seeing that the rain became a downpour, Sherry was silent.

Daniel handed the umbrella to her. He hurriedly put her suitcase on the backseat, opened the door, and got in the car.

Sherry held the umbrella with both hands. After a few seconds of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and sat in as well.

Daniel asked, “Which airport?”

Sherry told him the address. She pretended to be polite and said, “Sorry for bothering you. I hope I won’t delay your schedule.”

Daniel gently knocked on the steering wheel with his fingers, started the engine. The car roared away. “Not at all. It’s no bother.”

Since he said so, Sherry didn’t keep being polite any longer. She sat in silence without speaking.

After a moment, Daniel asked, “May I ask you a question?”

Sherry pulled herself together and adjusted her posture when sitting. “Go ahead.”

Among the sound of the downpour, Daniel calmly said, “I heard that Ms. Radomil’s father passed away. Is it real?”
