At the same time, a louder Emelle drowned out his voice, halting his footsteps abruptly in the darkness.
As Emelle ran in a panic, she looked up hastly Was it just her imagination? Did she hear someone call her “Eine“?
“Indie!*
She heard someone call her name, both “Eme” and “melle.”
Emelie abruptly stopped as she saw the headlights getting closer. In the next moment, they switched to high beams, shining directly at her from a distance of several dosen
It was as if a beam of light fell from above.
The vastness of the forest meant that finding the right path was a game of chance without any signs or a local guide
Fortunately, William’s luck held, leading him to the main read. He parked the car about twenty to thirty meters away from Emelie.
Seeing someone approaching, the two men exchanged glances before swiftly retreating into the woods.
Emelle just realized how close she was to the right path. When she was groping her way forward earlier, she had been heading in the opposite direction.
Will get out of the car and rushed toward her. The wind touched his short hair and sent his coat fluttering She simply watched in silence.
She was stunned to see him being the first to arrive
Emelie watched as William approached, his features gradually becoming clearer. Her mixed emotions of fear and uncertainty left her feeling unsettled.
As William reached her and felt a chill upon grasping her arm, he quickly removed his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
“Are you hurt?” he asked boarsely.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
He arrived just in time.
Aniving night before the worst happened
Willam’s tone was somewhat indistinguishable. “Luckily,” he said.
He tried to lead her away, but Emele realized her fear badn’t faded. Her legs felt weak, almost buckding with each step.
Without hesitation, William lifted her into his arms.
Emelle del overwhelmed by his presence. She hesitated for a moment, then swirly pushed him away, crating some distance between them. “No need just need a moment. Ican walk on my own.”
Emelle, cold, hungry, scared, and startled, was slow to react. With just a stem command, she forgot to resist.
William glanced at her, noticing her pale face. “Was something in the woods scaring you?” he asked.
Emelie was sure he hadn’t seen the women chasing her.
He carried her toward the car while Ashton opened the door.
Suddenly, Emelie burned her head to look in a direction, but she didn’t see anything.
However, in the light where she stood, all three people in the woods saw her te to look. They exchanged a look, bet they knew Emelie wasn’t aware of their presence.
Jodie whispered, “Sir, they’re leaving We should go too

The man humed and retraced his steps
Suddenly, the woods were illuminated by numerous flashlights, accompanied by acacophony of footsteps.
“Here! They’re here!”
William tumed with Emelie in his arms to look in that direction
The three people in the woods, who were about to leave, also halted to watch what was happening
The villagers surrounded them, pointing at Willam. “at’s them!”
The middle–aged man, likely their village head, asked William, “Who are you? What brings you here at this late hour?
William didn’t feel the need to answer them.
Ashton countered, “And who are you? What do you want?”
“We didn’t intend any harm,” the village head said “just promise not to mention what you saw tonight, and we’ll let you go.”
Willam thought it was weird. He didn’t know what they were talking about
Emelie observed the two men earlier in the crowd, one short and chubby, the other tall and thin. She guessed that whatever they wanted them to keep quiet about was related to
the hole.
The villagers saw William’s uncooperative attitude as a refusal to cooperate. Several young men with sticks exchanged looks and said, “Get them!”
“okay”
“Charge!”
