Chapter 554 I Appreciate All Your Help

'Go out, turn right, and after a few minutes' walk, there will be an intersection and then turn right. Or is that an intersection and turn left? Or is it right after the second intersection? Oh my! Grrr!"

Ashley could not decide where to go next. She was always so terrible at directions, and now she just didn't know what to do.

Selma saw how overwhelmed Ashley was with the directions. She couldn't help but giggle, "It's all right. You're new here, so it would be natural to get confused and lost. It would be best if you let my son show you around, eh?"

Ashley was embarrassed. She smiled at Selma shyly and said, "I guess you're right. I appreciate all your help."

"It's no big deal," Selma said, smiling right back at Ashley.

Ashley waited outside Selma's apartment as she called her son to show her around. Ashley felt relieved and grateful for Selma's help. She was happy that there were still a lot of good-hearted people in the world who were more than willing to lend a hand to others in need.

It didn't take much time before Selma came out, followed by a young man.

He was reasonably tall and dressed in black and white sportswear. The young man looked quite energetic but also reluctant.

It looked like the young man wasn't too enthusiastic to show Ashley around. Seeing Selma and her son like this, Ashley felt a little awkward.

"Come on! Get your butt out there and help our new neighbor! Ashley here needs your help!" Tony mumbled something. Ashley was not sure if Selma heard it or not, but she continued to nag Tony.

It was clear that Tony was in no mood to show her around.

He had been playing computer games in the apartment with his friend, when his mother interrupted and asked him to show Ashley around. Tony was clearly displeased, and was not ashamed to show it.

Selma continued to prattle on as Tony stood there and ignored her. Finally he answered, "All right, all right, Mom. I'll do it. No need to nag me."

Selma nodded, smiled at Ashley, oblivious to her son's protests.

She had be

the hotel. Ashley and Tony had been making small talk for some time.

"Wait for me here for a little while. I will go upstairs and bring the suitcase down," Ashley said.

Tony nodded at Ashley and waited for Ashley on the first floor of the hotel.

Ashley walked up to the receptionist's desk and made final arrangements to check out.

Ashley had spent a very short time at the hotel. This was rather unusual, but what else could Ashley do? She had already found a good place to settle down, and there was no point in staying at the hotel any further.

The hotel had served its purpose, and it was time for Ashley to check out. Ashley was grateful to have easily found an apartment to rent and stay.

She was also grateful to have met Selma and Tony who were more than happy to help her get used to her new surroundings. Despite all her troubles, Ashley could still see that there were still some things that were looking up for her.

Ashley used the key card to unlock her hotel room door. She entered and packed her things in her suitcase. It did not take long for Ashley to unpack all her things from inside the bag because she just took a few articles out of the suitcase.

It was a simple matter for her to pack the few things that she had brought with her. She was soon done, and ready to meet Tony who was waiting for her on the first floor.
