Chapter 467
Fortunately, Amelia had done her homework in advance before she chere. She knew which route to take,
she knew where the resting stops, toilets and the hotels are, she had marked each one of them. It was only when
they were really climbing the mountain then Amelia found that Patrick was too reliable. He was like a GPS, he
knew the entire Mount Logan like it was just his backyard. Her map was not needed at all.
Grasping the map firmly in one hand, Amelia took the flashlight that she carried with her and shone it on the
map. After analyzing the terrain carefully, she stepped up and went to the left side of the fork. Not knowing how
long had she been walking, Amelia still had not seen Patrick. At night, there was almost no one on the mountain.
The only thing that accompanied Amelia was the howling wind and the sound of the falling snow in the forest.
She was sleepy, hungry, and tired. When she going downhill, she let out a yawn. At this moment, she
accidentally slipped, fell to the ground with a bang, and slid all the way down the slope...
Amelia was so scared that she could not even cry out for help. There was only one thought in her mind and that
was to stop herself from falling!
Since the slope did not lead directly to the cliff, before the inertia disappeared, Amelia held onto a stone tablet in
tand completely stabilized herself.
One second, two seconds...
She was in shock when she hugged onto the stone tablet, and burst into tears.
She was overwhelmed with all kinds of negative emotions and started sobbing. On one hand, she was depressed
because Patrick left her. On the other hand, she was worried about Patrick. Not to mention tha she had just rolled
down all the way like a rice ball. If it were not for her thick clothing, she would have already injured herself!
The more she cried, the sadder she was. Amelia simply could not bear it anymore. She hugged her knees and
cried loudly. As there was no one around, no one would saw her crying!
After crying for a long time, Amelia found out there's one more thing that was much more terrible than losing her
life, which was being ashamed.
She heard the sounds of a car horn from not far away, two beams of orange light shone slowly on her as the car
moved forward. She could not cry anymore because she realized a problem. She was in the way!
Looking up, Amelia felt that the tears on her face frozen by the snow. She quickly rubbed her face with her
sleeve. When she got up from the ground, she saw that a van had stopped in front of her. The next second, the
door of the back carriage was pushed opened.
Amelia took a step back timidly. This kind of black van looked like the vehicle that was usually used for
kidnapping, where the victims would have their organs removed and thrown at the side of the road later.
If it was true...
Amelia's legs were shaking like a sieve...
To her surprise, a little boy's face cout from the back carriage. He looked like he was just around 10 years
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtold. He asked her in a childish voice, "Miss, my grandfather ask if you need any help."
In the van.
Fynn was sitting in his grandmother's arms, looking at Amelia curiously.
Being embarrassed by his gaze, Amelia quickly took the mineral water and a piece of tissue handed over by
Fynn's grandmother. She wet the tissue with
water and wiped her messy face clean.
Before getting on the car, Amelia heard from Fynn's grandmother that they opened a restaurant halfway up the
mountain and would need to go hat night. Along the way, they would pick up the ingredients they need
tomorrow and bring them up to the mountain.
When they were on their way home, they saw Amelia falling down the slope, so they cover and asked if she
needed help.
Fynn's grandfather, who was in charge of driving, looked at Amelia with his rearview mirror and asked, "Little girl,
why are you wandering in the mountains in the middle of the night?"
Fynn murmured, "Miss, | just heard a cry like wolves howling. Is it you who made it? | thought we've encountered
a mountain ghost."
Amelia felt embarrassed.
Fynn's grandmother gave Fynn a glance and then said to Amelia, "He's just being innocent, don't mind him."
"No, | don't mind at all!" Amelia hurriedly waved her hand. She was lucky to have someone to help her so she did
not mind the jokes.
Then she remembered Fynn's grandfather's question and said eagerly, "I ran down the mountain to find my
husband. | don't know where he is now!" "Didn't you call him?" Fynn's grandmother asked. "I did, but he didn't
answer it." Amelia was a little worried about Patrick's safety.
There was a sense of understanding in the eyes of Fynn's grandmother, "Had the two of you quarreled?"
Amelia nodded helplessly and looked out of the window with anxiety. "I think it's better forto get off the car. |

On the other side...
Patrick who really did choose the shortcut saw a silver sports car at the intersection.
As the window was rolled down, Charles's handsface appeared behind it. "What the hell is wrong with you?

here to pick you!"
Patrick glanced at him indifferently and opened the door with a lot of force. He reminded him, "Don't forget, you
have done something wrong to me."
Back then, Charles had privately hooked him up with a woman. In the end, the two of them almost fell out with
each other. Patrick did not mind getting even with him now.
"I remember! That's why I'm here to pick you up!" Charles could not retort Patrick. Hethen stepped on the
accelerator and with a turn of the steering wheel, the car went back from where it came.
