Chapter 134 I Was Wrong

In the entire city, who wasn’t aware of the Lockhart family’s terrifying wealth and power?

If one accidentally provoked them, one might not even know how one meets one’s doom!

As they slept, the sun began to rise on the horizon.

Josiah had dozed off without realizing it and woke to find Madelyn still sound asleep. He walked over to wake her up.

“Hey, it is dawn. Wake up.”

Leaning against the wall, Madelyn mumbled, “No, let me sleep a little longer…”

What?

Josiah almost laughed out of sheer frustration.

How could this woman sleep so soundly in the middle of nowhere? Is she serious?

Not holding back, Josiah pushed her awake. “Hey, lazy pig, get up.”

“Who are you calling a pig?” Madelyn shot back, finally waking up and glaring at Josiah.

Josiah couldn’t help but laugh. Instead of arguing, he looked at the sky and said, “It is morning. We can probably head back now.”

Madelyn nodded and used the wall to help herself stand up, only to grimace in pain. “Ow, ow, ow!”

“What’s wrong?” Josiah asked. He glanced at her knee and noticed that blood was seeping through the cloth wrapped around her injury.

D*mn it. I thought it was just a fall, but the injury was worse than I had expected.

Given the circumstances, it was better to get down the mountain and take her to a hospital than to do a makeshift bandage here.

With this in mind, Josiah asked, “Can you walk?”

Madelyn nodded. “I think so.”

As soon as she took a step, her leg gave out.

If you can’t walk, just say so. Why push yourself?”
