Chapter524
I snuggled into the quilt, closed my eyes, and soon fell asleep.
Perhaps because I was in a strange new place, feeling insecure, I slept very restlessly.
There always seemed to be various sounds lingering in my ears.
Those voices, strange and urgent.
Run, Esmeralda, run quickly…
What do we do, we run together, and we’ll be fine when we get to town.
Hehe, these two children look so delicate, they must fetch a good price. Quickly grab them, don’t let them escape..
I don’t know if I was dreaming or what, but it felt like a movie was playing in my head, flashing countless images.
Those images were blurry and messy.
I seemed to see two fierce and evil–looking men chasing me.
A boy kept pulling me and running.
I was eager to see his face clearly, but it always seemed like there was a dark mist blocking my view.
I couldn’t run anymore and I sat on the ground crying.
The young man then turned around to look at me.
At that moment, I suddenly saw it clearly.
Chapter 124
It’s Anton!
The boy who was pulling me and running forward desperately was Anton!
Ile saw that I couldn’t run anymore and was squatting on the ground, so he said to me, “Esmeralda, don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”
He turned back to stop the two men and shouted at me to run quickly.
When I turned my head to look, the sight in front of me became blurry again.
I seemed to see two young boys standing in front of those two fierce and evil men.
Both of them told me to run faster.
In the midst of chaos, I caught a glimpse of blood.
The bright red blood was terrifying.
Then one of the young men, with a thin and weak body, fell straight to the ground.
I was greatly shocked.
Who got hurt?
Was it Anton? Was Anton injured?
“Anton! Anton…”
I kept murmuring in my mouth, suddenly, a sharp pain came from my wrist, as if someone was squeezing my wrist hard.
I suddenly opened my eyes, only to be met with a gloomy handsome face, those cold eyes shining with a terrifying crimson.
Chapter 524
I sat up in a panic, clutching the blanket in front of me, and looked at the man in front of me in shock.
“Reynaldo, how did you come?”
The man was still holding onto my wrist.
His expression was restrained, but his whole body exuded gloom.
I twisted my wrist, which he had pinched and hurt, frowned and looked at him. “What’s wrong with you?”
The man didn’t say anything, he just stared at me.
There was anger, disappointment, and sadness in his eyes.
I quickly explained to him, “Don’t be angry, I didn’t do anything with Anton. Today, I just went to see his father with him, and then I stayed in my grandmother’s house for a long time.”
The night fell quickly that day, and the road back to Freybourne was long and difficult, so we decided to stay here for the night.
“You used to live here too, right? I just went to your room to take a look.”
Reynaldo still didn’t say anything, and the look in his eyes made me a little scared.
I couldn’t help but shake his arm, “Reynaldo, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t we agree on something before? You can’t be so sulky.”
“Have you… remembered everything?”
Reynaldo finally spoke, his voice tense, but what he said was words I couldn’t understand.
I frowned at him and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
