Chapter 377 - Never Ever Coming Back (1/2)
Elizabeth has finally escaped the men following her. She was indeed a skilled fighter and have great knowledge of survival. She was able to find her transportation out of the island without any means of identification.
”Hey, child, are you alright?”
The person who asked was the old man who discovers her running away from the men chasing after her. The old man thought she was in danger and decided to give her a hand.
Elizabeth: ”Grandpa, thank you for helping me.”
Elizabeth was fluent in many languages. The old man was speaking in Portuguese. The old man explained they are in the southern part of the west.
Old Man: ”Child, who were those people after you?”
Elizabeth: ”Grandpa, I'm being forced into marrying someone I don't love. I'm sorry to have troubled you.”
Old Man: ”Now child, it's fine… Everyone has the right to follow their dreams.”
Ship Crew 1: ”Don't worry child, your safe with us. Will make sure you get out of this island in no time.:
Ship Captain: ”You're lucky the old man found you. If not, you won't be able to escape this island and you would have been dragged to marry the person you're running away from.”
Elizabeth felt guilty for lying about her circ.u.mstance but she needs a way out of the island and she has no money nor passport with her. Her best option was to create lies and deceive people in order to help her. She is an actress and fooling people is something she is good at.
Elizabeth: ”Everyone, thank you for your help.”
All: ”You're welcome!”
Elizabeth went ahead and looked for a secluded place to rest. She was exhausted from fighting half of her father's men and beating up all of Yun Shen's men. Her body was sore and at the same time, she was hungry.
”Will I make it out alive?”
Her mind was even too exhausted to think that it didn't take long for her to doze off. As she shuts her eyes and her mind completely went into darkness. Her mind started reminiscing parts of her memories again…
”Hey Liz, why are you here again?”
”Do I need your permission to go here?”
”No, not really but this is my home you know…”
”Should I care?”
”Liz, why are you so cold towards me?”
”I just don't like you, I'm here for the professor not you…”
”Fine, then…”
”If you want to join me you can?”
The person beside Elizabeth whose image is still a mystery followed her and the sweet, bright smile on that person's face was so clear in her memory.
”Liz, do you really not care about me?”
”Should I care about you?”
”Man, you really are one hard person to please. I mean, I've done everything to please you. I've can give you anything you want.”
”Then I want my freedom back.”
”You know I can't do that, the old man wants you.”
”Then, I'll kill the old man so I can have my freedom back.”
”Ha-ha, I've tried that so many years yet here I am…”
Elizabeth did not find the person remarks funny at all. She frowned so annoyed that he thinks so little of her.
”Everyone wants to escape the old man but what can we do if his that powerful that we have no control of our own life.”
”Don't underestimate me, you don't know who I am.”
”True, who knows… You might be the first to gain freedom from the old man.”
