To be fair, Quincy’s words made a lot of sense. If the brothers didn’t even have Calista as a bargaining <b>chip</b>, even if they did obtain Quincy’s money, they probably wouldn’t be able to enjoy it for long.
After all, if they were dead, then there was no point in doing anything else.
<b>With </b>such thoughts, the two brothers momentarily set aside the matter of money. “All right, let’s find her first. However, we’re almost at our destination. There’s a chance that Calista might have been found by the vigers<b>. </b>They’re often out chopping wood and hunting.”
Just as Quincy was about to speak, she heard a group of people approaching. From the looks of it, they might havee looking for Calista!
Samuel was greatly startled. “No way! Despite how isted it <b>is</b>, people have actually managed to find their way to Barbcrest Vige? How long has it been? They must have flown here<b>, </b>right?”
“What do we do now?” Quincy was a bit panicked,pletelycking the ruthless determination she had when she had just killed someone.
Daniel made a swift decision. “First, let’s hide in the vige. When the timees, we’ll have the men from the vige search Calista for us. These men act as if they’ve never seen a woman before. If I say that I’m offering Calista to them for free, they will definitely help us hide.”
“Really?” Quincy was somewhat uncertain. “The police have already found their way here. Perhaps the vigers, afraid of causing trouble, may hand Calista over if they found her.”
Daniel let out a cruelugh. “ Daniel let out a cruelugh. “You don’t understand. These people are barely educated. They believe in the notion that individuals are held ountable for their own conduct. They treat human trafficking <i>like </i>livestock trading, so they a woman is some great offense.”
on’t think hiding
Only then did Quincy feel relieved, “All right, let’s hurry!”
The three individuals managed to the search party and stealthily infiltrated the vige. As expected,
when the vigers heard from Samuel that a woman was being offered to them for free, they all agreed to search for Calista. They pledged not to reveal the trio’s whereabouts when the police arrived and even dispatched arge number of people to join the search.
At that moment, Calista was rubbing the ropes tied around her body against arge tree.
She had been too preupied with running to even think about untying the ropes that bound her. Since she was momentarily <b>safe</b>, she finally began to work on loosening the ropes.
However, the rope was made of abrasion–resistant nylon. Having gone without sleep, food, or water for a day and a night, she was already drained of energy. Her attempts to fray the rope were half–hearted at best. At that point, she was desperate to encounter someone. Of all the people who hade looking for her, <b>just </b>meeting one would be enough<b>!</b>

However, she didn’t realize that she had <b>just </b>missed the people who had been sent to Barbcrest Vige to

<b>The </b>man also spotted Calista. Taken aback, he eximed in a dialect that she barely <b>understood</b>, <b>“</b><b>My </b><b>goodness</b>! <b>I’ve </b>never seen <b>such </b><b>a </b>beautiful woman in all my life!”
Calista turned her back to him and asked, “Can you help me untic the rope?<b>”</b>
Even though she had her back turned, her muscles were taut and ready. If anything went <b>awry</b>, she <b>could</b>

person’s gaze faltered for a moment. Upon seeing her bound by ropes, a sudden realization struck
“Are you a runaway wife from another vige?” He reasoned, as in their vige, women <b>were </b>shared among the men. Since he had never seen Calista before, he thought she must have escaped from a different vige!
Calista knew the man was no good. Upon hearing his words, she dashed off into <b>the </b>depths of <b>the </b>jungle!
However, she was at a disadvantage against the native mountain man whose movements were swift and sure. After all, she was in a thick, deserted forest, and her hands were tied, so she was quickly caught! His eager hands moved to touch her, but he was halted by a single piercing gaze from her<b>.</b>
“Do you know who I am? There are people searching for someone outside, and that someone is me<b>. </b><b>If </b>you darey a hand on me, none of the people in your entire vige will have a moment’s peace<b>!</b>” Although her face was pale, she exuded an overwhelming presence!
She managed to stun the man on the spot.
However, he then thought about something and chuckled endearingly. “It’s all right. I’ll take you home and hide you. They won’t be able to find you. Once those people leave, we can get married.”
Instantly, Calista recognized a crucial detail, which was that the people looking for her were already very close<b>!</b>
Before Calista could think any further<b>, </b>she was/swiftly taken down by the man, and eventually hidden in a cart <b>used </b>for transporting firewood.
The man was no fool and was incredibly smart<b>, </b>threatening, “The women in our vige are meant to be shared. If you’re smart, you’ll stay quiet. Otherwise, even I won’t be able to save you.”
At that moment, a chill ran through Calista’s heart. She never imagined her luck could be so dreadful, ending up in the hands of those people. <b><i>What </i></b><b><i>rotten </i></b><b><i>luck</i></b><b><i>!</i></b>
When Quincy arrived at the vige<b>, </b>everyone stared at her with a peculiar gaze. She used to think that those mountain people were foolish and useless, but when she got there, she felt the terrifying pressure they imposed upon her! She was so scared that she hid behind Daniel<b>, </b>not daring to peek out.
No sooner had they arrived than the police officers showed up.
The lead police officer asked the vige chief, Burt. “Have any of you seen this woman before?” He presented a picture of Calista. Burt gathered all the men in the vige, and each one of them imed <b>they </b>had never seen her.
The police officer frowned impatiently. “You better behave, understand? Don’t think I’m unaware <b>of </b>your
