The building was located in an open field with paved roads all around, providing great visibility to those in the area.

Because of that, Winnie was able to spot a Jeep parked outside the building from afar.

She then had Mason drive their car into the forest and said solemnly,

“Tell the car behind us to stay out of sight. The men from the Horton family have just dropped my granny and Rachel off, so they’re probably still in the building. Let’s wait here until they leave.”

“Understood,” Mason replied as he drove the car into the dense jungle.

He then grabbed a pair of binoculars and went off to gather information on the building.

Greta, too, got off the car with her sniper rifle in her arms. She needed to familiarize herself with the terrain in order to pick the best hiding spot.

Just like that, Winnie and Xavier were the only ones left in the car.

As Winnie turned to look at Xavier, her gaze fell upon the bloodstained bandage on his left hand.

“Does it hurt?” she asked while gently lifting his arm.

“No, it doesn’t.” Xavier frowned as he continued, “I think I’ve gotten quite numb to the pain. Why are you asking me about this? Are you planning to use this as an excuse to leave me behind again?”

He sounded so calm that it seemed like he had gotten used to it.
