CHAPTER 592 LIKE A NOVEL

She raised her voice a little too much, causing Enna to panic. "Pipe down!"

Oh right. We're still in the village. Someone might hear us. "Can you tell me your plan, then?" The fact that Federick was helping them made her feel more confident about escaping.

"Not yet. The fact you saw through my disguise is already making my work hard." Enna didn't think Yelena would ruin her plan, but she wouldn't tell anyone top-secret information.

Yelena understood that, so she said nothing.

A while later, Federick came in. When he noticed their smiles, he thought it was weird.

"She knows I'm a cop, comrade."

Federick wasn't surprised. "She has always been smart. That's not surprising."

Yelena thought that sounded eerie. "What do you mean? Do you know me?"

Federick gave Enna a look, and she went back to her room, leaving him and Yelena alone. "You don't remember me?" He studied her expression, trying to see if she remembered him, but she showed no signs of it even after a while, much to his disappointment.

"Should I know you from somewhere? Tell me your name. Maybe that'll jog my memory." Yelena smiled awkwardly. "It's been a while, so I don't remember."

Federick quickly composed himself. "I'm Federick Seanzy."

Federick… That jogged Yelena's memory. Back in middle school, there used to be a handsome top student everyone loved, and Federick was his name. He didn't look as sharp as he was now. He only looked cute back then, but now he was handsome. They barely spoke to each other back then, so Yelena slowly forgot about him. "So, it's you. You're a village officer now, I see."

Federick looked at her coolly. "Didn't think you'd be a star."

Yelena raised her head proudly. "I have the talent for it."

Still as proud as ever. Federick chuckled. "How did you get kidnapped?" Good thing she ran into me, or she would have been in trouble.

"No idea. I was hanging around the lake with my friend and boyfriend. I went to the restroom after that, which was when someone knocked me out."

Federick's face fell. "You have a boyfriend."

"Yeah. We've known each other for a long time now," said Yelena, oblivious to the fact that Federick, who was standing behind her, was looking harsher by the second. "So, what's your plan? I asked her, and she said you'd tell me." Yelena turned around, hoping that Federick would tell her their plan.

Federick scoffed. "None of your business. Just know that we'll bust you out of here." He went back to his study after that, refusing to talk to her.

Yelena saw him off, feeling that he was acting weird. Why did he get mad all of a sudden? Weird. It's just like how he was back in school.



Elspeth and Callum were driving deeper, and they noticed a lot of weird obstacles on their way.

Callum mulled over it. "Probably set up by the villagers to prevent anyone from going in or out."

It was dark so they couldn't make big strides. They could only drive slowly just in case the obstacles hurt their car.

As time passed, Elspeth got more and more worried. "She must've been taken into the village. If we don't speed up, who knows what might happen?"

Callum looked solemn. "She might have been…"

"I trust her." Elspeth took a deep breath to calm herself down. "She'll protect herself."
