Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self by Fleur Delacour

Chapter 446 Rescue Has Finally Arrived

To everyone’s surprise, Christopher remained silent on the other end.

As time passed, the silence began to feel suffocating, and Fanny felt as if she was in pure agony. Moreover, with the intense gazes of Jane and Florence fixed on her, she found it event more difficult to breathe.

“Chris?” she cautiously called out.

“Fanny, I’m here,” Christopher replied. However, as if he hadn’t heard her previous request, he continued, “I’m a little busy at the moment. I’ll get in touch with you later.”

Before Fanny could utter another word, he abruptly ended the call.

“Huh?” Fanny was left baffled.

She wasn’t the only one–even Jane was frozen in shock.

Florence let out a mocking laugh, her eyes scanning Jane as she remarked, “Is this what you meant when you said that he would definitely come back for her?”

At her words, Jane felt her knees going weak.

Fortunately, she managed to compose herself in time and stammered, “I–I don’t understand why Christopher is behaving like this…”

“Ha. Are you that cowardly?” Upon saying that, Florence waved her hand dismissively.

Although Jane was still anxious, she promptly heeded her instructions and left.

In her hurry, Fanny was left forgotten on the ground.

Fanny attempted to make herself inconspicuous, but Florence’s attention was soon drawn to her.
