A Crazy Night Novel

As fat raindrops spattered on Christina’s face, she gently wiped them away and fixed her gaze on the road ahead of her.

Not only did she have nothing on her, but she was also unfamiliar with the surroundings. Suddenly, a sense of helplessness overcame her, and tears welled up in her eyes.

I mustn’t cry or be scared. Lucas and Camila are waiting for me. I must go home in one piece and make Anya pay!

With the help of two sturdy branches, she slowly limped forward. As the cliff face was behind her, heading away from it was certainly the correct path.

However, her injured leg and the pouring rain hindered her from moving forward.

Moreover, Christina did not know if anyone would come to save her. After all, Anya would inform no one about the former’s disappearance when it was a deliberate attempt to harm her.

If no one knew Christina was trapped there, she would have no choice but to walk out of the forest on her own.

Thoughts of how large the forest was and whether wild animals existed there raced through Christina’s mind. The more she dwelled on it, the more hopeless she felt.

Despite the nagging pain in her leg, her depleting energy, and the uncertain feeling of what dangers awaited her, she could not just sit there and wait.

Gritting her teeth, Christina continued marching forward. She was drenched in no time, and the cold wind made her shiver.

Faster. I need to be faster.

When she was tired, she leaned against a tree to take shelter from the rain, her body curled up into a ball due to the cold. In fact, she was so cold that she could barely feel the pain in her leg now.

Her lips quivered. At that moment, nothing terrified her more than the biting cold.

Right then, a figure came to her mind. That person had a charming and familiar face and would appear whenever she was in danger.

Unfortunately, she was in a forest, which would take some time for the man to locate her even if he took a plane. There’s no way he would appear out of thin air.
