NovelEnglishChapter 236 Drugged Fanny grinned and said, "Looks like Wynter bumped into an old friend." "An old friend? Well then, buddy, why don't you join us on the ride back?" Dickson said, warmly draping his arm over Harry's shoulder.
Harry quickly shook his head. "No, it's alright. I've got a car." With a concerned glance, he turned to Wynter and said, "Hey, Dr. Genius, I'll be taking off. Take care on your journey, okay?" Harry stressed the word "take care", hoping Wynter would catch on to his concern.
But to his surprise, Wynter just smiled. “Don't worry, sir. With my parents by my side, I'll be fine,” she said. With that, she lowered her gaze and resumed slurping her noodles.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her relaxed demeanor, Dickson eased up. "That's my girl..." Harry felt a twinge of anxiety. How could Wynter be so oblivious? However, he couldn't say much, especially considering they were her parents. He could report the situation, but he feared it would only stir up trouble.
As a local, Harry knew about Paradise Village in Havenlight County. It was a place known for its dangers, and no ordinary person would dare to venture there alone.
Furthermore, the destination they were headed to fell outside the jurisdiction of any authority. Over the years, there had been reports filed, but they all ended up being unresolved.
Harry feared reprisal from the local thugs if he got involved. However, he couldn't abandon Wynter, who had saved his life. He paused briefly and then turned back as if to intervene.
However, before he could say a word, Wynter cut in, saying, "Sir, drive safe out there. Your daughter's waiting for you back home. Go on, get back to her." Harry was taken aback.
Meanwhile, Fanny had finished packing and was ready to hop in the car. Wynter's innocent smile seemed to hide everything beneath it. As Harry stood there in bewilderment, the old minivan had already pulled away.
As soon as they got into the car, Fanny started questioning her, "Wynter, who's that man? He seemed quite concerned about you, and he even spoke in our county's accent." Wynter nonchalantly propped her chin up and replied, "He's just someone I met on the mountain once. I treated him for an illness." Hearing her words, the driver and Dickson exchanged a glance. With that sorted, there was Chapter 236 Drugged 2/2 no need to fret. He was merely a patient, so it was unlikely that he would interfere in their affairs.
"You must be tired. Get smore sleep. Your mom will wake you up when we arrive," Dickson said with a smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFanny was equally considerate. She adjusted her seat to make sure Wynter slept soundly.
"It's nice having parents," Wynter remarked with a yawn, sinking her chin into the collar of her black T-shirt as she lazily stretched.
Despite only the upper half of her face being visible, she exuded an innocent beauty. Soon, drowsiness took over, and her eyelids grew heavy.
When Fanny noticed her sleepy expression, she knew instantly that the medicine in the instant noodles had taken effect. Her grin grew wider.
After five minutes had passed, Wynter appeared to have drifted into a deep slumber. Fanny waved her Dere hand in front of Wynter to check her response. Finding Wynter unresponsive, her expression instantly changed. "This is drivingnuts. Passa cigarette, will you?" Fanny requested, skillfully reaching for her lighter. Dickson couldn't help but feel a bit impatient. "How is it possible that you two manage to bump into one of her old friends even while eating noodles?" "Who knows," Fanny's heart began to race. "Could something go wrong?" Dickson pointed ahead. “We're nearly at the exit. Don't worry, that guy seems timid. Just keep an eye on her."
"Once we reach the village, she won't be able to leave anyway, so whym bother watching her?" Fanny glanced at Wynter again. "But I must admit, this girl has quite a charm." The driver chuckled. “Can't bear to see her go, Madam Fanny?"
Fanny sighed deeply and said, "It's a pity." She affectionately ruffled m Wynter's hair. Lassie, if anyone's to blame, it's your striking looks..."
