Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)
Chapter 221
For some reason, many of them had veils covering their faces which inadvertently helped Winnie and Greta’s cause.
That way, their foreign faces wouldn’t stick out as much from within the group.
As Manchernius’ topography was largely made up of low mountains and rolling hills, a proper road could barely be seen. All the roads available were largely formed from well-traveled tracks.
After a bumpy forty-minute journey, their vehicle finally arrived at an expansive plain.
There, Winnie and the others were ordered by the innkeeper to alight.
Upon exiting the vehicle, they were surrounded by nothing but trees. The innkeeper subsequently led them around a bend before their destination came into view.
Instead of the luxurious mansion they were expecting, a massive base greeted their eyes.
Security was tight with armed men guarding the entrance. When Winnie and the others entered, everyone’s bodies—including that of the innkeeper—were searched.
Winnie, who wasn’t naive, naturally didn’t carry a gun with her.
Nonetheless, the weapon she brought was in the form of the necklace she was wearing. On top of that, she had an ornamental hairpin stuck in her hair.
The hairpin—brought from Chanaea—was custom-made. When pulled out, it would turn into a sharp weapon capable of piercing through any threats that she faced.
Once the ladies were determined to be unarmed, they were ordered to form a line.
Subsequently, their veils were all removed to reveal their faces.
On Winnie’s left was Greta; on her right were two meek-looking girls who looked very young still.
Both of them—already crying while inside the vehicle earlier—were now trembling in fear.
After walking past to inspect all of them, the guard stopped abruptly in his tracks.
Scrutinizing Winnie and the others, he instructed the innkeeper, “Mr. Horton prefers fair-skinned women. Thus, I’ll choose two to be sent to him. As for the rest, you can take them to the backyard as usual.”
“All right, all right,” the innkeeper responded obsequiously. “I know what to do.”
While bending forward and nodding his head, the innkeeper snuck a glance at Winnie.
She’s the fairest and most beautiful among them all. If she’s sent to Mr. Horton, the plan would go up in smoke.
Meanwhile, Winnie too, knitted her brows, especially when the guard stopped in front of her.
Fortunately, he didn’t choose her. After sweeping his gaze across her face, he turned his attention away.
The reason was that Winnie had purposely used her makeup to make herself look uglier.
In the end, the guard chose the two girls beside her. “You and you. Follow me!”
After sighing in relief at the close call, the innkeeper added to the guard, “Good choice. Those two are virgins who have just been sold over. With their porcelain white skin and beautiful features, I’m sure Mr. Horton would be a very satisfied man.”
“Mmm-hmm,” the guard grunted in response before leading the two girls away at gunpoint.
Meanwhile, Winnie furrowed her brows tightly as she watched the girls being taken away.
At that moment, she resented the innkeeper along with everyone there. The only emotion she felt was the urge to burn down the filthy place.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t in a position to act upon her desires. As her rational mind cast away the rage and hatred in her eyes, she quickly caught up with the innkeeper with Greta following closely behind her.
The innkeeper whispered, “I’ll be taking you to the backyard. That’s where all the men sleep at night. If you go further back, you’ll find the women’s and children’s quarters. However, I have no idea in which room the people you’re looking for are held. You’ll have to find them yourself. Now that it’s dark, you should use the opportunity to fall behind and slip away.”
Winnie simply grunted in acknowledgment.
While they were passing through the yard that had a banana plantation, she suddenly rushed to the side and began vomiting.
Greta, who was behind her, knowingly rushed up to her side to pat her on the back.
As for the rest of the women, no one dared to look their way. Only one or two with wandering eyes threw them a glance before retracting their gazes.
As for the innkeeper, he pretended to bark at them. “Stop dilly-dallying and hurry up!”
As Winnie continued her charade, Greta gave him a cursory response. “Got it. We’ll be right there.”
Once the group was far ahead, the two of them quietly disappeared to the side.
As darkness had already fallen, the lamps on the ground only illuminated the small area they were placed in, while the moon glowed with a silvery hue from the night sky.
Nevertheless, the light was just enough to help Winnie and Greta navigate their way around and not too much to expose them to their enemies.
Pointing at a man-made hill diagonally opposite them, Greta suggested, “Do you see the wooden door? That’s where the women and children live.”
Winnie nodded firmly before following Greta from behind as both of them began creeping around.
Soon, they managed to slip in and found a secluded corner to hide.
In a soft but stern voice, Greta reminded Winnie, “Ms. Garland, even though they’re only women and children, you shouldn’t underestimate them, let alone show them any mercy. Otherwise, a single mistake would cost you your life.”
