Chapter 267
Meanwhile, Maisie searched around the forest for a long time, but she didn’t know the exact location of the camp,
so she was getting annoyed.
Was she really stuck in the forest?
If she continued moving around, it would be hard for the rescuers to find her. She should stay i n her spot Maisie
removed her backpack and sat down, but she suddenly heard rustling coming from behind her
She got up slowly, turned toward the movement, and yelled, “Wynona?” She received no reply, and the movement
stopped. She gradually saw a shadow, but it was definitely not human. Maisie carefully picked up her bag and took

and a wild boar with black skin and sharp tusks appeared. Maisie started sweating and was frozen on the spot. The
first thing that came to her mind wasn’t to run because she knew she couldn’t outrun it.
She realized that the wild board didn’t seem to want to attack yet, so she shouldn’t make sudden movements.
She stepped on a branch, and a loud crack echoed.
Before she could take a breath, the wild boar rushed toward her to attack. Maisie discarded her bag and ran as fast
as she could to hide behind a tree. She turned and saw the boar ramming into the tree. While it was recollecting
itself, she climbed up another tree.
The boar rammed into the tree that she climbed onto, and she almost fell off because of the impact. She was lucky
to have climbed onto a thick branch to keep her balance.
After a few more rams, the boar circled the tree twice and left.
Maisie caught her breath while leaning on the trunk. She stayed on the tree while waiting for the rescuers because
she didn’t know where the boar was.
The dark consumed the forest. Bugs could be heard in the grass.
A few rays of light shone through the trees. Cherie led a team of searchers to search around the restricted zone for
a few hours.
The searchers held tranquilizer guns to avoid being ambushed by wild animals.
One of them said, “Cherie, it’s getting late. We can’t just keep searching.” Cherie was struggling. If she couldn’t find
Maisie, Nolan was going to lose his temper. Another searcher looked around and couldn’t help but say, “It’s getting
too dark. Even if there

be positive?”
“Shh, be quiet. I think there’s something up front.” A man raised his hand to stop them from talking. A few of them
raised their guns and looked a t the area where the movement was detected. It was pitch black around. No one
could be sure if a bear or a hyena would rush out of the woods.
A few of them walked forward toward the direction, shining their light. Their guns were all pointed toward the trees.
They saw a source of light not far from where they were.
The party immediately walked toward the light and saw Maisie picking up some wood to feed the fire under the
tree.
When Maisie saw Cherie and the others, she stood up and smiled weakly. “You’re here.” “Are you alright, Zee?”
Cherie went forward to hold her and asked, “What’s wrong with your leg?”
