Chapter 862
Mya squinted her eyes and shielded the blinding light with her hand. The vehicle slowly approached her until it
stopped next to her.
She saw the car window on the driver’s side roll down and instantly held her breath. Her delicate face revealed a
frightful look under the night sky, and she dared not to look at the terrifying man in the rear passenger seat.
“Ms. Harper, Mr. Turner would like to have a chat with you.”
‘Wh-Wh-Why would he be here? Didn’t he leave already? Madelyn told me to stay away from him.
‘He’s not a good person.’ Mya thought to herself.
After what had happened to her in the past, Mya was afraid of associating herself with people like Fred.
“I-I-I-I…” Mya nervously clutched the strap of her bag in front of her chest and stuttered, not knowing how to react.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe blinked her innocent eyes, feeling scared.
At this moment, a green car arrived. Mya wasted no time, turned around, and ran into the car. “Quick, quick…/start
the car…”
“Ms. Harper, what happened? Are you okay?” The driver asked.
“Stop asking questions. Just start driving!”
The driver did not know what was happening but quickly drove away anyway. Then, Mya looked back anxiously.
In the other car, the deputy warden said to Fred, “Mr. Turner, she ran away!”
Fred had a cigar in his hand, with its smoke surrounding him. He saw the panicked expression on Mya’s face but
could not figure out why she would be so scared.
‘Things are getting interesting.’ He thought to himself.
“Follow her,” Fred instructed the deputy warden.
Mya noticed that Fred’s car was following her and felt uneasy. She turned back, clutched her chest, and tried to
comfort herself.
‘Maybe he’ll leave when we get off the freeway later.’
Mya then stopped overthinking.
At the next red light, Mya turned around again and saw that the black military vehicle was still behind her.
Mya felt like crying, ‘Why wouldn’t he just leave me alone?
‘Why is he still following me? What does he want?
‘Is he some kind of stalker?’
In the Jent residence, Zach walked out of the bathroom after showering. He then saw an opened book lying on the
bed as Madelyn sat there in a daze. Zach was wearing dark pajamas when he walked toward her while drying his
hair, “What are you thinking about?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s nothing. I’m going to sleep.” Madelyn closed the book and lay on the bed with her back facing him.
After Zach dried his hair, he switched off the lights, lifted the blanket, and slept next to Madelyn.
Madelyn knew that he was up to something, but she ignored it. As he was finally going to make a move, she said,
“Why is Fred with Cecilia? And what’s going on between him and Mya?”
Sure enough, Zach paused.
“Have she told you about it?”
Madelyn shook his hand off and sat up.
Zach followed suit.
“I don’t care what happened between all of you, but Zach, I hope you’ll keep your promise to me. Don’t let
Fred do anything to Mya. She’s very innocent and doesn’t know anything.”
Zach pinched the bridge of his nose and said, “He isn’t going to do anything to her.”
“Can you guarantee that?”
Zach said confidently, “I promise. Can we sleep now, hm?”
Madelyn’s head was in chaos. Then, she got out of bed. “I’m going to check on the kid.”
Zach did not stop her. As he watched her leave, he did not feel like sleeping anymore.
