Chapter 210 The Road by the Cliff
"Cliff?"
Alexander frowned slightly because this word sounded very uncomfortable.
At this moment, several trucks drove over one after another, heading straight for the road by the cliff.
If trucks could get through that road, surely they could too.
"Go right!" Alexander simply made a decision.
Well, this was the time to test Ethan's guts and skills.
Ethan took a deep breath, firmly grasped the steering wheel, and stared sharply ahead.
Not long after, Richard and Samantha also arrived at this fork in the road.
Mandy, who was driving, was a little hesitant. "Richard, both the two roads lead to the destination. Which way should we go?"
"Take the left. It's a bit winding, but it's safer. The road on the right is at the edge of a cliff. The faint-hearted would be wise not to choose that road."
"Then we choose the left. I have a fear of heights." Mandy decisively chose the road on the left.
After a while, Ivy and Maria came to the same fork in the road.
Anthony looked at the fork in the road and then at the map, feeling a little confused.
"Which way should we go? One road is long and the other is short, but the short one is on the edge of a cliff."
Ben volunteered and said, "I've driven on cliffside roads before. Let me drive."
The road on the edge of a cliff?
Ivy looked at the six children, and she suddenly felt a little scared. Why did she bring the children? This place was too dangerous!
But to whom could she entrust her children if she didn't bring them?
Samantha, Richard, Ivy, and Maria... Everyone came here, and Michael was helping them look after the hotel.
Ivy didn't know many others, and now the human traffickers were rampant. What could she do if she didn't bring her children with her?
Several cars passed by, those who were not in a hurry chose the left road, and those who were bold chose the right road. Everything seemed so harmonious.
Just when Ivy was hesitating about which way to go, Ben had already driven the car to the road beside the cliff.
...
Richard and Samantha chose the road on the left. The journey was relatively long, and so was the time. They were inevitably a bit bored during that time.
Samantha got a little carsick and tried to distract herself by talking. So she asked Richard, "What was the Lewis family like?"
The question intrigued Richard, and he immediately started talking.
"Although the Lewis family lived in a mountainous area, they were a big family with a high reputation. They had been in business for generations and had strong financial resources.
"Many people wondered why their families lived in the mountains when they were so rich. In fact, the Lewis family made a fortune due to the mountains. If they left the mountains, their financial resources would be cut off.
"Lord Lewis, the head of the Lewis family, was a romantic person. When he met a woman he liked, no matter how much he would pay, he would definitely get that woman. By the time he was 40, these women had given him 21 sons but no daughters.
"Lord wanted a daughter desperately, so he announced that whoever could give him a daughter would marry him as his wife.
"And there was an ordinary-looking widow named Laura in the mountainous area. She always wanted Lord's woman, so she volunteered, saying that she was born to have daughters and that she could have twins.
"Lord believed in Laura's words because he was so eager for a daughter. Surprisingly, Laura really did what she said and gave birth to a pair of good-looking daughters for Lord..."
Speaking of this, Richard unscrewed a bottle of pure water and took a few sips.
Samantha swallowed her saliva and couldn't wait to ask, "What happened afterward? After Laura gave birth to two daughters, did Lord marry her?"
"Don't worry. I'll tell you slowly..."
