Chapter 937 Ambushed

"Oscar is acting, but I'm not!" Hannah replied to Lillian with each word emphasized.

Lillian's face turned cold as she thought about everything she had been through. She had spent the whole day and night on the run, but thankfully, having grown up with her father, she had some anti-detection skills. At least for a week, Oscar wouldn't be able to replace her whereabouts. However, she couldn't guarantee how long she could hold out. She knew that there was no way for her to leave Northfield and if this continued any longer, Oscar would eventually replace her.

If Oscar found her, he would surely kill her.

Her father always taught them to cut off all ties with enemies so they couldn't rise again. Of course, he died a gruesome death because of it. But some deep-rooted beliefs had been ingrained in their siblings' bones. Therefore, Lillian couldn't fall into Oscar's hands.

Even if it meant death was an alternative option, she wouldn't die at the hands of Oscar. Her self-respect didn't allow her to be in such a miserable state.

"I have no feelings for Oscar anymore whether you believe it or not." Hannah spoke again, "I contacted you voluntarily just for Una Wells."

"I won't believe you!" Lillian gritted her teeth.

"If you don't believe me then why did you take the risk of calling me back?" Hannah exposed Lillian's lie.

Lillian gritted even harder on hearing this statement from Hannah, who was never foolish anyway.

Hannah said right. She turned on the phone today just because she wanted to see what information was on it and if Oscar sent her any messages.

Oscar sent many messages before, asking her to come back and telling her how important Una was to him. But still, she didn't trust him at all. Not even one word from his message seemed trustworthy enough. Lillian knew that she didn't trust him yet she was still unable to stop herself from checking the messages. Just when Lillian angrily wanted to throw away the phone, she saw a message from a random number with Hannah's name.

She hesitated for quite a while before dialling that number. At the same time though, Lilian knew very well that once she turned on this device, Oscar's people would lock onto roughly where they were based upon signal transmission via base stations. She already left with Una from the place where they had just settled down.

At this moment when calling Hannah, she had already made up her mind about something. If not, she wouldn't have turned on this device either. Lillian knew her impending doom but she wanted to wait for that day without regretting too much.

"Do you want to see me?" asked Lillian.

Exposed by Hannah, she didn't want to pretend anymore.

"Yes."

"Do you want to save Una?"

"Yes."

"Well," Lillian laughed coldly and continued, "I'll send you an address, come to replace me."

"Okay." Hannah sounded a little excited. Although she tried to keep herself composed, her fingers were trembling.

"But Hannah, if you play any tricks, I will die in front of you, and so will Una Wells. Don't think I can't do it. Even though she's my daughter, I can hurt her too. If I don't kill her, she will still die. She will also be killed by Oscar! I'm not gonna lie to you. I called you back cause I've prepared for the worst! Anyway, I can't leave Northfield and I will die on this land, sooner or later."

Hannah did not doubt her words. At the moment Hannah received her call, she knew well that Lillian had already been pushed to the extreme. Fortunately, before Lillian made up her mind, there was still a lot of reluctance inside her towards this world. And because of her unwillingness, she wouldn't die in silence.

"I won't lie to you, give me the address." Said Hannah.

"I'll give you an hour. If you don't arrive on time, I won't wait for you."

"Okay."

Lillian hung up the phone.

Soon, Hannah received her message. She quickly searched for a specific place, which was fifty minutes far away by car.

Time was enough. Then she got herself another cab in no time. She tried to tell the driver her destination in a calm voice, while her heart was racing madly inside.

The radio was being played in the car, repeating the news of the Commander's missing daughter. The reward, the contact and the number were also broadcast.

The driver couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect accidents to happen to Commander's daughter."

Hannah remained quiet. She was wearing a cap, which helped her avoid being recognized by people.

"Miss, have you heard?" The driver suddenly gossiped, "Everyone is saying that the child didn't go missing on her own, she was taken away by the Commander's wife! It seems like the Collins family perished, and only the Commander's wife and child survived. They say it's because she wanted revenge for her husband's actions, but who knows if it's true or not."

Hannah didn't engage in the conversation. She said indifferently, "I just returned to the country and I'm not very familiar with what's happening here."

"Oh." The driver sensed Hannah's rejection and didn't say anything more.

After a while, the driver spoke up again, "Miss, why are you going to such a remote place so late at night?"

It was already dark outside now. When she arrived back at The Capital it wasn't even noon yet.

"I have a friend over there."

"A girl should be careful when out alone." The driver kindly reminded her.

Hannah responded with a nod.

The driver didn't say anything more either.

At that moment, Hannah thought of something and she asked, "Sir, are you familiar with that place? My friend asked me to come over so I came over but I've never been there before and I'm afraid of getting

lost."

"As a taxi driver, I'm somewhat familiar with all areas. There aren't any residential areas or commercial buildings around there, just an abandoned pier where hardly any workers go anymore. If you go over now this late at night and want to come back later on, well then no one will be able to drive you back!"

"It'll be fine. My friend is nearby."

"Okay."

Hannah silently watched outside as they drove further down an increasingly deserted street, growing increasingly nervous. They finally reached the destination, Hannah paid him his fare before exiting from the cab.

And right in front of her lay nothing but desolation. Under cover of darkness, everything looked bleakly barren. The overly dark sky made everything seem somewhat terrifying.

She called Lillian immediately upon arrival, "I'm here now, where exactly are you?"

"Share your real-time location with me," Lillian replied curtly before hanging up.

Hannah shared her location details without delay and then waited patiently for her arrival.

Time passed by slowly. When she began wondering if Lillian wasn't coming, Hannah felt a sudden blow to her head from behind. Before long everything went black, she had fainted.
