Chapter 318

When Arthur noticed her slightly red eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse her request.

"Sure. Since you want to leave today, let's leave today."

" What about my mom?"

"Don't worry about it. I will keep my word." Arthur subconsciously reached out to pat her head, but she dodged liis hand. The disappointment he felt made his tone sound a little impatient.

"Alright then. I'll buy the tickets."

After saying that, Elspeth got up and was about to return to her room, but Arthur stopped her. He was frowning when asking. "Have you forgotten that you're supposed to be dead? How can you buy tickets? Do you want Old Mr. Joneson to find out you're still alive?"

Elspeth's mind was a mess, so she couldn't think clearly. When she heard what Arthur said, she became even more depressed.

She sat back on the couch, and the soft material helped subside the rage inside her a little.

"What do you suppose we do?"

After lighting his cigarette, Arthur breathed out a puff of smoke before suggesting, "We'll leave by ship. Once we reach another country tomorrow, we can take a plane to Eden."

Since there were many people whom they knew in Blaydal. they couldn't go out in public and fly to Eden.

"But we might have to trouble your mom to follow us on this long journey. Also, you have to find a reason that she would believe."

Elspeth's eyes glistened. "Don't worry. I have an idea."

Surprised, Arthur stared at her and asked. " What is it? Don't tell me you're going to send the helve after the hatchet and tell her everything?"

"Do I look that stupid?" Elspeth rolled her eyes. "Do you remember Elias Cole? He's the man I met after you and Emma forced me to jump off the cliff. It was also he who saved me and brought me up onto his cargo ship."

When mentioning that incident, Elspeth still felt resentment for the two culprits.
