Chapter 1871


    Chapter 1871


    Theo didn’t say a word, but his foot on the gas pedal told a different story.


    Balfour and Byran in the back seat remained silent, but they were surprised by Ellinor’sputer skills.


    She was able to locate a phone number so quickly.


    Byran, particrly impressed with this kind ofputer skill, leaned forward from the back seat to have


    a look at Ellinor’sputer screen and was taken aback.


    “Sis! You… you’re actually the Snow Bunny!”


    Ellinor didn’t have time to deal with his irrelevant emotions. She shot him a nce. “Just sit quietly and


    don’t make noise!”


    Byran resignedly pouted and returned to his seat, but his admiration for his sister only intensified.


    Damn, his idol was actually his own sister.


    This was truly beyond belief.


    Meanwhile, elsewhere.


    In the outskirts of Greenhaven, near Barren Mountain, a middle-aged man was swatting away the


    buzzing mosquitoes near a cave entrance after taking a


    call from his former boss.


    Patricia emerged from the cave, looking at him suspiciously. “Who were you talking to?”


    The man chuckled. “There’s no one else here but us. I just took a call.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    “What? A call? Didn’t I tell you to throw your phone into the river? You didn’t throw it away?!” Patricia


    frowned in annoyance.


    The man was nonchnt. “This phone’s pretty expensive. It would be a waste to throw it away.”


    Patricia was exasperated. “Don’t you know we can be traced by its signal?”


    The man thought Patricia was being overly cautious. “But I have a lot of important contacts stored on


    that phone. What if my family has an emergency and they need to call me? I can’t just abandon my


    own affairs for your sake! Besides, I don’t think they’ll find us; they don’t even know we know each


    other!”


    Patricia was irked but didn’t have the energy to exin everything to this man. “Tell me, who was it that


    just called you and why!”


    The man honestly replied, “It was thedy who owned the fast-food joint we used to work at. She called


    me to collect my unpaid sry. I’ve arranged to go get it tomorrow afternoon; it’s quite a sum.”


    Patricia felt like something was off. She grabbed his phone to check the time and date and immediately


    said, “Damn! We’re not safe here anymore! We need to leave now!”


    The man, feeling weary, didn’t want to move. “Patricia, I think you’re overthinking it. Who’d find us here


    in the wild of Barren Mountain so quickly? And in the middle of the night, no less. Where would we go?


    I spent enough energy just carrying that kid up the mountain today; I can’t walk anymore.”


    Patricia urgently said, “You have to walk even if you can’t! You fool, we’ve been discovered, and you


    don’t even know it!”


    The man still thought Patricia was making a big deal out of nothing. “Discovered by whom?”


    “You really are brainless! Why would thedy from the fast-food joint call you to collect your sry at


    this time? The restaurant is closed at this hour! Today isn’t even payday; are you dumb? Someone


    must have tracked us down to the restaurant!”
