"We can't stay here any longer; we need to leave." Otherwise, we would bring trouble to this old man.
Vincent helped Cecily up, "Sister, does this count as sharing hardships together?"
Cecily tugged at the corner of her lips, "So, do I have to enjoy the good times with you in the future?"
Vincent smiled, "I'll give you all the money I make in the future."
"Thanks, but I'm afraid your future wife would hate me."
Just then, the old man walked in and saw that they were about to leave. He put down what he was holding and walked closer, "Are you leaving?"
Cecily nodded, "Alan, thank you so much for taking us in. The people chasing us have already found us. We can't bring you any more trouble; we have to go."
Alan, hearing this, thought about his few rooms and how they couldn't hide anyone. He had no choice but to nod, "This is as much as I can help you. Be careful from now on."
"Okay, thank you."
"Don't mention it. Hurry up and go. The road is slippery, be careful, especially you. You can't see right now, so be extra cautious."
"Okay."
Vincent bent down, intending to carry Cecily.
Cecily refused, "Your shoulder injury will tear open if you carry me. Blood loss will make you weak. Give me your hand and walk in front of me. I trust you completely."
Vincent nodded, "All right."
Darian and his team switched to a helicopter and quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain. The mountain path was rugged, and they didn't know exactly where Cecily was in the wilderness, so they had to search all the way up.
Darian's sharp, eagle-like gaze swept across the barren mountain, "Even if we have to turn this mountain upside down tonight, we must find them."
Larkin's heart trembled, "Yes, but Boss, you should wear a raincoat." Although the rain had lessened, the drizzle was enough to soak a person.
Darian ignored him and started walking forward. Larkin looked up at the barren mountain.
Even though Darian and Blaise had mobilized all their manpower, finding one person in such a vast mountain range was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, it was raining, the mountain paths were rugged and slippery, making it even more difficult.
In prayer, he clasped his hands together, "God, please keep Cecily safe." Otherwise, Darian would go mad.
"God heard you, stop praying."
Larkin suddenly heard a voice beside him and was startled. He turned around to see a group of people behind him.
Larkin was very shocked. Were they really going to move mountains?
"Sir, who are you?" Larkin looked at Bryan, who seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
"I'm here to find someone."
"Find someone?"
Bryan waved his hand, and the people behind him immediately dispersed to search the mountain.
Bryan said nonchalantly, "I'm looking for your Boss's future wife, Cecily."
Seeing Larkin's confusion, he added, "Don't overthink it. I'm doing this because I don't want my wife to be sad, so I'm here to help." Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered. Cecily's life or death had nothing to do with him; he was just afraid Vivienne would be sad.
Larkin listened, not fully understanding his meaning.
Bryan had already started walking forward, and Larkin quickly followed.
Blaise glanced back at the increasing number of people and immediately spotted the middle-aged man at the front. He raised an eyebrow, "Cecily is quite impressive to have even alarmed him."
"Boss, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing." Blaise retracted his gaze and continued walking forward.
Cecily had been running with Vincent for over an hour. Her blindness significantly slowed them down. Moreover, she hadn't fully recovered from a fever last night. Her eyes hurt, her head was dizzy, and she had slipped twice on the road. She swore never to come to such deep forests again in her life.
"Stop, I can't run anymore. You go ahead, don't worry about me."
Vincent tightened his lips and bent down to pick Cecily up.
Cecily was startled.
"I'm not leaving you here. At worst, we'll die together."
Cecily opened her mouth, "Who wants to die with you? Put me down, get lost."
As soon as Cecily finished speaking, she was thrown out, rolling twice.
He really let her roll. Cecily held her waist, almost dying from the fall.
"Sis, are you okay?" Vincent had slipped on a tree root, and the fall had also thrown Cecily out of his arms.
Cecily held her waist, "What do you think? If I die, Eliza will hold you responsible."
"Don't move." Two voices fell.
Vincent looked up to see two people pointing guns at them.
One of them said, "Finally caught you. Luckily, Matthias had us guard the road, or we wouldn't have caught you. Keep running if you can."
Vincent looked around and only saw them, "Just you two?"
"So what if it's just us? You're still under our control."
The other person, losing patience, threw down a rope and threatened, "Tie up that woman yourself, or we'll shoot you."
They knew Cecily and Vincent were agile, so they were cautious. But in the face of absolute power, their caution was useless.
Vincent picked up the rope and walked toward Cecily. As he bent down, he suddenly stood up and delivered a swift kick, knocking the gun out of the man's hand.
"Do you want to die?" The other man enraged, fired his gun.
A gunshot echoed through the forest, startling a flock of birds.
Darian's tall figure halted, looking toward the direction of the startled birds.
"Boss, the gunshot seems to be from the northwest."
Darian tightened his lips and quickened his pace toward the sound.
Cecily, hearing the sound, focused her attention. As the man was about to fire a second shot, she swiftly kicked the gun out of his hand, grabbed his wrist, and threw him over her shoulder.
The man tried to get up and fight back, but Vincent's booted foot stomped on his back. His tall figure exuded absolute dominance, "Continue?"
"Please forgive me, I'm just following orders," the man, seeing his subdued companion, began to panic.
"We shouldn't waste time here. The gunshot gave away our location; others will be here soon."
Cecily stood up, leaning against a tree.
Vincent knocked the man out and supported Cecily, "Let's go."
"Go? Where do you think you're going?"
