Chapter 514

The night was as dark as ink. Underneath the elevated highway, beside a pond, insects chirped, and frogs croaked. The scent of fresh grass lingered in the air, blending with the night’s mist, touching their skin with a cold chill.

That chill seemed to seep into their hearts, stirring up fear.

Thalassa, with her four children and Evelyn, hid in a ditch beneath the highway.

In front of them, the pond shimmered in the moonlight, and its depth was concealed by the darkness, a sight that brought fear to their hearts.

Yes, fear.

She had noticed a line of black limousines in the traffic behind them, and it had filled her with dread.

At that moment, she decided to get out of the taxi.

Thankfully, it was nighttime. She and Evelyn managed to slip unnoticed from the taxi to the one up front.

Once the taxi had driven through the traffic lights, she realized that the driver would surely inform Lysander they had boarded his taxi.
