Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

456 No route to escape

Jeslyn stopped to look back, wondering why he wasn’t chasing her. By now, he must have known she wasn’t in her room. At that moment, she felt something was wrong. Her instinct told her to go back to the house but she didn’t want to return, so she ignored her instinct and continued heading to the

mountains.

She could see them right in front of her. In less than ten minutes she would be at the foot of the mountains, she thought.

True to her thoughts, less than ten minutes later, Jeslyn was standing at the foot of the mountain. It wasn’t a very tall one and she could climb it because there were stairs carved on it.
