Andrei, lounging in a silk robe, greeted her warmly—offering not just gratitude, but a life-altering proposition. Lidia, still dazed, listened as he praised her rare kindness for stopping to help him on the street when others would have ignored him. Then came the red velvet box: a brand-new hybrid taxi,
a card loaded with €10,000, and the promise of a future she had never dared to dream of. “Be my personal chauffeur,” he offered, with triple her pay and full support for her unborn child. Lidia was speechless, caught between awe and disbelief, yet deep inside, a quiet certainty bloomed. In a world where compassion was fading, her small act of humanity had lit a spark—and unknowingly, she had stepped into a new chapter where everything was about to change.
