Rowan nodded. It was such a poor place that they couldn't find a good hotel here.
Scarlett helped Scarlett go back to the car. Seeing them leave, those villagers started to gossip in dialect.
Hearing what they said, Kyleigh knew that Scarlett had gone. Kyleigh came out of the house again, looked in the direction that Scarlett had left, and cursed.
The neighbors beside her asked curiously," Mrs. Booker, what did that girl do? She rarely comes back to see you, but you just drove her away with a broom."
"See me?"
Kyleigh snorted. "This bitch wants to make me mad! You don't know how ungrateful she is! Three years ago, I..."
Kyleigh began to talk about the past again. Those women listened with interest, said mean things about Scarlett together, and then happily went back homes.
Scarlett was unlucky. After they drove for about half an hour, the tires were suddenly punctured.
Although they had two spare tires, those were not enough for the two cars.
If they wanted to hire a truck from the town to pull the cars, they would have to wait for at least two hours.
Yet they had no other choice.
It was a lonely and muddy country road among the mountains.
The drivers got out of the cars to check the tires and found many nails, which seemed to have been scattered here on purpose.
Knowing this, Scarlett immediately asked the drivers to get back into the cars, lock the doors and windows, and not to get out.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sunlight was not as strong as before.
The wind rustled the trees next to the road.
It would be scary if someone had an accident while driving alone on this road.
