Chapter 668 Badly Frightened
"Liya was curled up on the bed, her hair disheveled. She covered herself with a nket. Her face was
pale and she felt dizzy."
"After a while, there was a knock on the door."
"No, don''t find me. She trembled and grasped the quilt tightly, screaming with fear, ""Ruth, I didn''t mean
to kill you. Don''t find me. I didn''t mean to kill you."""
The knocks on the door became louder and louder.
"Liya was badly frightened. Her entire body was trembling as she covered her ears with her hands. She
shook her head frantically, feeling extremely terrified. She kept muttering, ""Ruth, please don''t look for
me. Forgive me, please."""
"Liya, hurry up and open the door. There was a knock on the door. The person outside seemed to have
be impatient after waiting for a while. She shouted out in a rough voice."
Liya let go of her ears and raised her head.
The voice belonged to Letty.
She suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up.
"Liya, hurry up and open the door. There''s no time. Letty''s impatient voice rang out from outside again."
"These days, there were a lot of footsteps outside the Emerald Garden and it was always noisy,
especially at night. However, that day, the usually chaotic garden seemed to have quietened down."
"Stunned for a moment, she got out of bed and rushed to the door to open it."
"Letty was dressed in a long-sleeved shirt and pants, with a hat as well. She was standing by the door
with two bags in her hand. It seemed that she was ready to go out."
"Quick, Calvin is back. They are about to close all the entrances. We have to escape before they do so,
or we''ll be finished. Letty saw Liya looking at her with frightened eyes. She looked like a ghost. Her
face was deathly pale and her lips were trembling. She sneered in her heart and looked at her
disdainfully, reminding her."
"Did Calvine back? After opening her eyes for a while, Liya came back to her senses and
questioned."
"Letty looked at her with contempt and said with ace of sarcasm in her tone, ""Are you still dreaming
of being Calvin''s second wife? From what you did, I can guarantee that you will be caught by Calvin
when hees back. Be smart, pack up your things, and leave."""
"Liya''s entire body was trembling. Her eyes were nk as she opened her mouth. Calvin''s face
appeared before her eyes, the elegant figure of the young master whom she had admired from a young
age. He was the only one who had helped her in Harvey Manor when she was young."
"A sense of warmth that did not belong to her rose in her heart. After that, she got very excited again
and her whole body seemed to be floating in the air."
"The sound of footsteps downstairs became louder and louder. Through the shade of the trees in the
corridor, Letty saw that many security guards were lining up in the garden and heading towards the
gate. There was also security personnel patrolling in the garden."
"She was scared out of her wits. When she turned around to look at Liya, she saw that she was
out of her mind."
Letty had lost her patience. She just urged her a few more times before walking out quickly with the
bags in her hand.
"This woman was out of her mind. If it weren''t for Zoe asking her to bring Liya out, afraid that she
would not stand the interrogation and end up exposing them, then she wouldn''t have cared about this
stupid woman''s life or death. However, at that moment, she could only run for her life."
"As she thought, she lowered her hat, held the bags, and walked out as if nothing had happened."
Calvin had just walked out of the study of Fragrance Garden when he saw the security captain hurrying
over.
"Mr. Harvey, we''ve just caught a servant who tried to sneak out from the back door. What should we
do? The head of the security team was busy giving orders to close all entrances of every building when
he overheard the security guards stationed at the small door at the north wing of the manor reporting
that a woman had been trying to sneak out."
"The head of the security team had worked in the mansion for years. He was more wary these
days, given that a murder case had urred in the mansion. It was very significant that the chairman,
who had just returned from Capital City, had decided to close the exits of the mansion, even during
Madam Sophia''s funeral. Thus, when he found this woman, he ran to the mansion and told Calvin in
person."
"Calvin''s eyes shed as he asked in a deep voice, ""What''s the servant''s name? Where was she
located?"""
"Mr. Harvey, she''s Letty, a kitchen staff in Ink Garden, The captain of the security guards replied."
"Letty? Calvin could not recall anyone named Letty. He had never paid much attention to the servants
of the mansion, but it was obvious that this Letty wanted to sneak into the mansion at this point in time.
He immediately ordered in a serious voice, ""Take her to the conference room right now."""
"Yes, sir, the captain of the security team answered."
The closing of the entrances of Harvey Manor proceeded in an orderly fashion.
"Zoe stood in the bedroom, pacing back and forth, with a cigarette in hand. She looked haggard."
"Ever since she hade back from Sophia''s funeral at Harvey Manor the previous night, she had
begun to feel restless."
"The night before, she had met Sergio in the Harvey Manor. The words he said pushed her into the
dark abyss. Letty and Liya, the fools, had actually killed Ruth, undoubtedly alerting the enemy. Her n
was about to be exposed even before it started. Hence, she had ordered Letty to bring Liya back from
the mansion."
"However, she had not heard from them after that."
She sat on the couch and began to smoke.
"Miss Yates. As soon as she smoked the cigarette in her hand, Libby came in with an anxious look on
his face."
What''s the matter? Zoe raised her head.
"Miss Yates, our people searched the entire mansionst night but couldn''t find the treasure. This
morning, Calvin returned home. There is security posted in the mansion now, and Calvin has already
ordered the closure of the entrances of the mansion. This is very serious. I''m afraid it''ll be very difficult
for us to find the treasure. Libby blurted out in a panic."
Zoe thought about it as the cigarette was lowered down slowly. She took one final drag of the
cigarette before discarding it in the ashtRhys.
Have Letty and Liyae out yet? she asked in a low voice.
Libby shook his head. "I''m afraid they won''t be able to walk out of here alive."
"Zoe took a deep breath and fell back on the couch. If they couldn''t escape, then their crimes would
be exposed. Would this lead to her own crimes being exposed?"
"Libby, bring our brothers with you, and let''s retreat to the Mariya Church. Her face had turned pale."
"Narrowing her eyes, she gave the order decisively."
"Libby was stunned and asked a little unwillingly, ""Miss Yates, what about the ''Ocean Heart''?"""
"Zoe''s eyelids jumped as she calmly said, ""There''s no need to rush. Someone else should be more
worried than us. Just wait and see. No matter what we do, it''s just a matter of a few days."""
Libby didn''t understand what she was trying to say but nodded regardless.
"Miss Yates, I''m afraid that Liya is finished this time. I''m afraid that she will betRhys you when the time
"Zoe frowned and said indifferently, ""It''s just a matter of one or two days. Who cares about her
anyway? After we get the treasure, we''ll leave here immediately."""
"Libby thought about it, smiled sinisterly, and went back to work."This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
