Chapter 901 Fallen Into The Snake Pit

Zoey began to sneer.

Indeed, a malicious woman like her, always scheming against others, would naturally worry about being schemed against in return. It's always wise to keep a card up one's sleeve.

“Oh, by the way, your lover, Damien, is still locked up in the other hidden room upstairs. Aren't you planning to rescue him?”

Sofie sneered, “Why keep a dog that's no longer of any use? Moreover, if saving a person involves risking my life, it's even more unlikely for me to do it.”

Zoey clicked her tongue.

How does that saying go again? A woman can be the most ruthless in the room if that's what she wants. It couldn't be better to describe this woman. Damien, that old fellow, somehow managed to pull her out from Tarragon Headquarters. He saved her life, and now she says she can just abandon him without giving it a shred, no, not even half a shred of consideration. So to expect this woman to consider any mother-daughter affection is purely a joke.

“The exit is not far ahead. Where are we going to stay once we get out? Have you made any arrangements? That scoundrel Kurt is after the confidential document in my possession, so he won't let us off the hook. If we're not careful, we could easily fall into his hands again. If that happens, both of us will be in trouble. So you'd better find a hidden place to hide, otherwise, we'll have no good outcomes.”

Zoey let out a cold laugh, her voice light and airy. “Rest assured. Since I've decided to defy him, it means I've already thought of a way out.”

“That's good.”

After the two emerged from the secret passage, they found themselves in a chilling forest.

Sofie extended her hand, pointing to several roads, and began to speak, “This one leads to Derport, this one to Xemrich, this one to Newcove, and this one to Bruiville. We'll head in the direction of wherever you've arranged for us to stay. We're in the forest so we can't mix up the directions.”

With a playful smile, Zoey casually pointed and said, “That path.”

What she wanted to say deep down was she wished to send Sofie to her death.

She knew that this woman had set traps in all four directions—east, west, north, and south, ready to ensnare and eliminate her right then and there.

And that was precisely what she desired.

That was because if she did not fall into a trap, would Sofie go and retrieve the confidential document?

If Sofie didn't go to retrieve the confidential document, how could Zoey follow her and snatch it from her?

After about ten minutes of walking through the woods toward the west, Sofie said while panting, “I'm getting old, can't walk anymore. Let's take a break.”

After speaking, she made a move to lean against the nearby large tree.
