Chapter 555: He Won’t Let Go of You

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Ever since Dolores was taken away, Amanda had been behaving well and cooperatively.

Initially, Amanda was taken here incidentally and she was not useful to them. Therefore, the man

watching her didn’t pay too much attention to Amanda. He even forgot to lock the door after sending

the meal to Amanda several times.

Amanda quietly observed it for two days. She then made sure that the man would not stay at the house

after delivering the meal to her and directly leave the building. There was no one watching her in the

surroundings.

As long as she didn’t bump into those men when she walked out of the house, there would not be any

problem.

Moreover, from 3 to 5 o’clock in every afternoon, there would be few people in the vicinity as if they

were afraid that others would find out something fishy.

At noon on the third day, Amanda received the meal sent by the man. When the man prepared to lock

the door, Amanda suddenly asked, “Is the baby better?”

The man took a glance at her, “Don’t ask the questions that you’re not supposed to ask.”

“I… I’m simply worried about him. He has always been weak and it takes a long time for him to recover

whenever he falls sick. I know he’s very important to you. You will take good care of him, right?”

“He has recovered.”

Amanda smiled, “Then I can be relieved. Thank you.”

The man didn’t reply. He closed the door and directly left.

Due to Amanda’s interruption, he forgot to lock the door.

Seeing this, Amanda finally heaved a sigh of relief. She felt her whole back soaked in cold sweats.

Now she just needed to wait until three o’clock. Then she could escape from this place.

When it was half past two in the afternoon, the sky gradually became dark. After a short while, it began

to rain.

This weather was suitable for an escape.

Amanda clenched her fist tightly. Maybe even the god felt distressed for her and decided to help her.

At 3:20 P.M., Amanda secretly opened the door and found the corridor was prevailed by silence.

She sneaked forward following the lights and then gradually found the exit.

After getting out of the building, Amanda immediately hid behind a bush outside and observed the

surroundings.

This place was much bigger than her imagination. Moreover, it seemed like she was now in the

backyard and there was a magnificent building in the distance.

Amanda remembered that it didn’t take too long for Logan to drive to this place from the door. So

definitely, Logan didn’t drive into the mansion through the front gate, so the back door must be in the

vicinity.

Luckily, there were many trees, bushes and a long flower wall here, which was suitable to hide people.

Amanda carefully stepped forward along the wall in the rain.

She was quite lucky. She chose to run away at this point, plus that it was raining now, she didn’t bump

into anyone in the backyard.

Even so, as this place was so big, Amanda got lost and it took at least half an hour for her to find the

back door.

Amanda was secretly pleased when she saw the door. Nevertheless, there was a security booth at the

door and two security guards were chatting in the booth.

Amanda observed the surroundings and found that the wall had many entangled climbing plants. Most

importantly, a place was the dead zone of the surveillance cameras.

Amanda walked to that position and climbed the wall by grabbing the climbing plants.

Her palms were scratched and began to bleed soon.

But Amanda didn’t loosen her grip. She gritted her teeth and continued to climb. When she finally

climbed to the top of the wall, she found the exterior side of the wall was smooth and had no climbing

plants that she could make use of.

This wall was at least two meters tall.

Amanda looked around. She was clutched by fear, but when thinking of Dolores, the baby who was still

suffering from illness, and Logan who made use of her before…

Amanda hesitated for a while and then closed her eyes and jumped towards the outside.

When she landed on the ground, she could hear the breaking sound of her bones and she couldn’t help

moaning.

Suppressing the sharp pain from her body, Amanda hurriedly covered her mouth.

As it was raining heavily, her moan was covered by the raining sound.

When Amanda stood up, she noticed the blood on the ground, yet she didn’t know which of her injures

was bleeding.

Having no time to feel scared, she ran on the road regardless of her wounded legs and arms.

Amanda ran for ten more minutes, yet there was no car on the road.

Her vision was blurred by the rain. When she was about to faint, she saw two traces of light in the rain.

Amanda suddenly saw a glimmer of hope. She hurriedly ran to the center of the road and waved at the

car.

The black car stopped in front of her after a short while.

Amanda slapped the window and shouted in the rain, “Please give me a ride. I…”

Right at this moment, the window was slowly winded down and Logan’s face appeared in her vision.

Logan turned his head to look at her and curled his lips into a smile, “Amanda, where are you going?”

Seeing his face, Amanda’s pupils abruptly amplified. With fear written all over her face, she

subconsciously stepped backwards.

Just now she felt she was so lucky and thought there was a glimmer of hope, but now she became

desperate in an instant.

Amanda wanted to run away, but as her legs were injured, plus that it was still raining, she found it

difficult to run.

Logan took several steps forward, grabbed Amanda and sighed emotionally, “It’s raining heavily. Why

do you have to torture yourself?”

Amanda struggled hysterically and struck him with her fists, “Let go of me! Let go!”

“Let go of you? So that you can report this to Clarence?”

“You son of bitch. Mr. Conrad will find out the truth and he won’t let go of you.”

Logan said nonchalantly, “I’m not the chief plotter. I’m an accomplice at most. Even if he wants to probe

into it, he will not come to me first. When he remembers me, I would have left City N.”

Amanda begged him miserably, “I beg you to let go of me. I’ve escaped from the house. Please just act

as if you haven’t seen me. They won’t know about it.”

“You said that Clarence will not let go of me just now. If I let you run away now, wouldn’t it harm

myself?”

Amanda was overwhelmed by a gush of desperation. She said helplessly, “You… You approached me

with a purpose from the very beginning, right?”

Logan chuckled, “It was a coincidence. I accidentally saw Clarence and Stella playing with a child in the

pleasure ground of a mall. But at that time I was not sure of it, so I could only follow you who was

taking care of the child and found chances to approach you. But I didn’t expect he was really

Clarence’s child. It took me a long time to perform the show with you, but it’s worthy.”

Amanda cursed at him, “Son of bitch!”

“Son of bitch? Then how will you comment on yourself? You said Clarence is your life-saver and you

can’t betray him, but what did you actually do? I pretended to treat you well and asked you the

questions, and then you told me everything.”

“I… I didn’t…”

“Yeah, you didn’t tell me directly that he’s Clarence’s child, but do you think everybody is as stupid as

you? I just need to investigate it then I will find out the truth.”

Amanda felt all the strength in her body being drained out instantly and slumped onto the ground.

It was all her fault…

If not because of her, things would not progress to what they were today.

Logan squatted down in front of her, “Guess it, of course, Clarence will not let go of me, but will he let

go of you?”

Amanda abruptly looked up at him, feeling a gush of chillness surging from toe to top.
