Chapter 361

Meanwhile, in Springwyn of Anglandur, it took Bailey three days to hide from Tarragon's spying. She managed to reach the town in Tarragon where Shannon was currently staying.

She went to meet Veikko upon arrival. After knowing the situation from him, Bailey decided to bring Shannon back to Hallsbay secretly.

The most dangerous place is the safest place. Micah will never expect me to bring Shannon back to Hallsbay.

After making up her mind, Bailey instructed Veikko to make arrangements for their return before heading to a farmyard in town.

From afar, she could see a familiar figure working in the vegetable patch.

It was Shannon.

Perhaps only a rural life like this could help Shannon to heal from her inner trauma. I hope that she could stay here forever to enjoy the tranquility so that she wouldn't have to recall the horrifying memories of her past. However, it's all wishful thinking. After all, we are all humans. It's impossible for us to escape from the love-hate entanglements of the mundane world.

“Bailey, you're here.”

Bailey snapped out of her reverie when she heard a cold voice.

While she was lost in her thoughts, she had unknowingly reached the entrance of the yard.

“Yes. I have something to do in Anglandur, so I came to see you. By the way, I'm thinking of bringing you to Hallsbay for a trip for a few days.”

Shannon watered the cabbage seedlings and responded, “It's good living here. I'm not going anywhere. By the way, could you please ask Veikko and the rest to leave? I feel uncomfortable being watched. I've had enough of that in the past. I wish to live freely for the rest of my life instead of being someone's puppet.”

Bailey leaned against the doorframe and lowered her eyes in hesitation. Then, she uttered, “Okay. I promise. However, you have to live with me in Hallsbay for some time. After that, I'll find a new place for you to live carefreely there.”

“I'm not going anywhere. I've adapted to this place after living here for quite some time. This is my home now,” replied Shannon nonchalantly.

Bailey furrowed her brows.

Not leaving? I can't let that happen. She has to leave Springwyn. Otherwise, Micah would definitely discover this place within three days.
