CHAPTER 598 MARKINGS

When Don heard her words, he shivered in fear. "Calm down now. Let's talk this out."

"Are you going to let us go?" Elspeth glanced at him.

"Of course." Don quickly ordered the villagers, "You guys, make way for her."

Although the villagers listened to him, they were still upset that they would have to give up when they were so close to success.

However, Don was worried about his life. When he saw the villagers didn't budge, he started roaring at them. "Why are you guys still standing there? Hurry up and get out of the way."

The others couldn't do anything but let out a path.

"Alright. I told them to let you guys go. Now, you can release me, right?" Don turned his head and smiled cautiously.

"Not yet. I want you to prepare a car for us."

It was apparent that Elspeth was pushing her luck. After all, the village was poor, and Don was the only one with a car. Now that Elspeth was trying to take his car away, Don was reluctant to do so.

"We only have one car in this village. I'm afraid I can't do it."

"You only have one life, though." Elspeth raised her eyebrow.

Seeing that she was threatening him, Don sighed and said, "Alright. Take the car." He took the car keys out of his pocket and unwillingly handed them to her.

Elspeth took the keys and slowly stepped back while still holding Don captive. When the others stood by the car, Elspeth told Callum to move Federick into the vehicle. After Yelena was also in the car, she kicked Don to the side and quickly got into the car. While Don lay on the ground and grunted in pain, the car drove off.


After the villagers saw that the coast was clear, they quickly went up to help Don.

"Are you alright, chief?"

"You are all useless. That woman almost killed me, yet none of you have a plan." Don raised his hand and slapped them.

"Are we still going to chase them?"

"Yes. Why wouldn't we?" Don took a deep breath and calmed himself. "If you guys can't bring her back, there will be consequences to pay."

Those men were Don's subordinates. When they heard his words, they wanted to take the credit. So, they quickly ran off.



The mountain road was bumpy with many twists and turns. Moreover, they couldn't see the road clearly. As Elspeth drove the car, she felt that they were going the wrong way.

"Is this the right way, Elspeth? This doesn't seem like the way out." Although Yelena didn't know which road was the exit, she sensed that something terrible would happen as the car seemed to be heading deep into the forest.

Elspeth frowned when she looked at their surroundings. "I'm not sure either. I am driving by instinct." On their way here, she had made some markings on the road, so she was just following the signs.

Beside her, Yelena suggested, "Why don't we change to another road? I have a bad feeling about this."

With Don's personality, he would surely be prepared to ambush them on their way out. That way, he would be able to capture all of them. Thus, Yelena felt that there must be a bunch of people waiting for them by the exit.

Just as Elspeth was about to say something, Federick, who was in the backseat, said breathlessly, "Don't change the path."

"Why not?" Yelena was confused.

"Although there is a possibility that we will get ambushed along this road, the other roads are all traps. Plus, it's not safe to walk the other road, as we can't promise that we'll make it out."

"You're right." Callum had a grim expression. "I have a feeling that this isn't the end."

"Why?"

"Did you see anyone chasing us along the way?"

"No." Yelena shook her head honestly.

"That means that something is waiting for us in front."

None of them knew what those foolish villagers had up their sleeves. Thus, they were in a dangerous situation.

Elspeth slowed down the car to avoid driving into traps. At that moment, she could see what was in front of her. Suddenly, she stepped on the brake, and the others lurched forward from the impact.
