Chapter 158 Wild Racing
Sylvia''s POV:
I quickly sat straight nervously. "God! Why are they following us? Who are they?"
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Rufus pursed his lips and drove calmly as if he were used to such things. "Don''t be afraid.
Everything will be fine."
Rufus hit the elerator and drove at full speed. The ck car behind continued to follow us. My
palms grew sweaty.
The beautiful scenery that I had been admiring all along turned into a hazy blur. Rufus drove at
lightning speed. I gripped the seatbelt for dear life. For a moment, I thought the car would fly in the
air.
"Rx, Sylvia. I won''t let anything bad happen to you," Rufus said, ncing at me.
However, nothing reached my ears. My heart leaped to my throat when I saw the car was about to
collide with the iron railing ahead. "Watch out!" I squealed.
Rufus quickly turned the steering wheel, and our car drifted to an unexpected turn, leaving the ck
car far behind.
I took a deep breath and looked back. The ck car had turned into a speck. "Did we finally get rid
of them?"
Rufus nced at the rearview mirror and stepped hard on the elerator.
It was dusk. The rays of the setting sun cast a golden hue on our car. The entire stretch ofnd was
soaked in the luxurious light, but I was not in the mood to appreciate the magnificent scenery. My
heart was still hanging in my throat.
The wide road broke into twones. The sky turned dark as the sun sank into the horizon. Just as
we were about to enter the urban area, I saw two cars parked in the middle of the road, blocking the
path.
"Slow down, Rufus! Someone has set a row of spikes on the ground!" I shouted nervously. They
were arranged in a manner where driving one step forward could puncture our tires.
Rufus'' jaw tightened as he slowed down the car.
I nced at the rearview mirror as my heart continued to crash in my chest. I saw a ck speck
that seemed to grow bigger with time. Panic wracked my nerves as I saw the ck car catch up
with us again.
I didn''t know how many werewolves were there in these three cars. But I knew we were definitely
outnumbered, and defeating them wouldn''t be an easy task.
I tried my best to calm down and stop myself from screaming. I couldn''t cause any trouble to Rufus.
Rufus also noticed the ck car behind us. Without hesitation, he pivoted the car to the mountain
road nearby.
The roads were narrow and curvy. My body jerked back and forth as we traversed the bumpy
terrain. I clutched the groove beside the car door. I was so terrified that I could barely breathe.
The darkness only seemed to worsen everything.
The pitch-ck road ahead frightened me. We were driving across the rocky mountain path. I was
afraid we might encounter an ident.
I looked at Rufus and wanted to ask him to slow down.
However, he looked eerily calm. There was not a trace of fear or worry on his face.
As if noticing my concern, Rufus smiled, his eyes focused on the road. "Don''t worry. I''m familiar with
this area."
"I''m not afraid. I trust you." I tried to control myself from screaming.
"I know you are afraid. Close your eyes then. That will help," Rufus said softly. Then, he increased
the speed of the car.
I nodded and squeezed my eyes shut. It felt like I was on a rollercoaster ride. My heart was about to
leap out of my throat. He finally stepped on the gas, and the car skidded to a halt. I felt like I might
go straight to heaven if I opened my eyes. "It... it''s fine. I''m not afraid! I trust you, Rufus!" I
stammered. If worse came to worst, we could die together.
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a soft chuckle, which frustrated me.
''Damn it! How could he remain calm even now?''
