Chapter 476 It's a Trap


Why was Dawn calling her? If she remembered correctly, the two had not contacted each other over the phone for a long time. Not to mention, Rose felt like Dawn had turned into a different person when they had reunited in Regalia this time. Surprised, Rose quickly comforted her after sensing she was crying. "Dawn? What's wrong? It's okay. Calm down, and talk to me slowly."

Her concern was genuine and contagious. Had Dawn actually been in a terrifying situation, she would've felt comforted by her.

On the other side of the call, Dawn became startled but only for a fleeting moment. As though discarding a part of her real self, she continued feigning terror and cried.

"Rose, I was wrong. I lied to you. This morning at the hospital, I wasn't crying out of happiness. It's supposed to be my wedding in two days. I asked Evan to return to Aquastead with me, but he refused, saying he wanted to postpone the wedding..." Rose was surprised to hear her mention this.

Dawn continued, "I cried because of that, Rose. I'm pregnant with Evo's baby, and the baby needs this ceremony. That's why I was anxious about it... I was mad, so I left the hospital to get some fresh air. I took a cab and told the driver to drive me around. "I was too focused on my thoughts and forgot about the time. When I realized, the fare meter showed an amount way out of my existing cash. I fought with the driver because I couldn't pay the full amount.

"After taking my money, he kicked me out of the car... Rose, what should I do? There are no cars here at all... I'm hungry and thirsty..." She sobbed helplessly.

Rose softened her tone and comforted her. "Hey, relax. Does... Evan know?" For some reason, she thought Evan should be the first person Dawn reached out to when she needed help.

Dawn paused briefly and panicked. To avoid raising suspicion, she cried even harder. "Rose, I called Evo, but his phone was switched off. He's been too tired taking care of Eve lately. Maybe he's sleeping. I don't know... Rose, I'm scared..." Rose frowned upon hearing her sobs. If anything happened to a pregnant lady in the wild...

"Relax, Dawn. Just tell me where you are, and I'll pick you up." She maintained a low voice while glancing at Yvonne on the bed.

When Rose exited the ward, Dawn described her location. "I don't know where I am. After the driver left, I wandered and saw a sign labeled Mount Ebott."
