Chapter 338 Elias... Is It Really You?

"Hunter, my nose hurts! It's bleeding!"

Hunter, who was seized by the leg by the man lying on the ground, grew increasingly impatient and kicked him away with a forceful blow. "Get lost! It's all your fault, you wimp! You let her escape! Just wait until I get back. I'll deal with your *ss!"

Running frantically, Amanda dashed out of the rundown motel. The owner of the motel at the front desk stood in shock when she saw Amanda. How in the world is this beautiful woman I did not see entering my establishment now fleeing out of here?!

"Miss! You-"

The owner wanted to ask Amanda a question, but the latter paid her no mind and continued running out of the motel. Fearing she would get caught and dragged back, she glanced back every now and then. The rough voice of a man echoed from behind. "Stop right there! Come back! Come back here!"

Amanda's expression grew frantic. As she was still in her high heels, she kicked them off and ran barefoot.

But the next moment, she cried out in pain when she stepped on a sharp pebble. "Gah!"

Amanda had to lean against a wall and slowly inched forward when she couldn't continue. walking. However, the man chasing her was closing in fast.

Thinking on her feet, she swiftly darted into a nearby alley and watched as the man ran past like a gust of wind.

Once she was certain he had gone far enough, she breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, limped out of the alley.

What am I supposed to do now?

She had nothing-no phone, no cash, no way to make a distress call or hail a cab.

Not only that, her injured foot hindered her ability to walk properly.

and

Moreover, she had never been to this area before. It was even more dangerous than the slums where she had lived as a child. Every passerby seemed like a sinister criminal.

Amanda felt the piercing stares of those who walked by and instinctively hugged her shoulders tightly. She had to replace a way to escape from here.

She had no choice but to keep walking along this road even though she didn't know when she would reach a familiar neighborhood.

Time seemed to stretch endlessly, and her legs were throbbing in pain on top of the initial injuries she sustained.

She finally sat down on a bench by the roadside. When she spotted a nearby mini. convenience store, she considered going inside to borrow a phone, but then she realized she didn't remember Elias' phone number.

Meanwhile, Yacob searched everywhere for the guest who had left the hotel with a suitcase tonight, while Elias aimlessly drove around in his car.

Elias was anxious and restless that he was in the dark about Amanda's situation. Although he guessed that the person who kidnapped her wouldn't harm her, there was always a chance that something unexpected could happen.

She could be in any kind of danger as long as he didn't have his eyes on her. The mere possibility of that was driving Elias crazy.

He had countless regrets over his actions concerning this woman. If only I stayed by Amanda's side today...

Just as Elias was losing control of his emotions, he saw a familiar figure sitting alone on a bench at a corner up ahead, looking lonely and helpless.

At that moment, a glimmer of hope appeared in the depths of his pitch-black. immediately parked the car by the roadside and strode toward that person.

Amanda sat on the bench with her head hanging low from exhaustion. The soles of her feet were still throbbing. Am I going to have to continue walking like this all night?

She needed to replace a familiar building nearby or try to recall Elias' phone number to see if she could remember it.

Suddenly, a pair of polished leather shoes came into her field of view.

A spark of hope ignited in her despairing eyes as she slowly raised her head and saw Elias' incredibly handsome face. "Elias... Is it really you? I'm not dreaming, am I?" she whispered in a weak voice.

She felt as if she were in a dream.

looked grim. "Do you want to talk about it? If you don't want to, just go to sleep. It's not too late to tell me when you wake up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Amanda's stomach rumbled. The woman bashfully asked, "Could you cook me a bowl of instant noodles? I'm a bit hungry. It's been a while since I ate." "Alright. Give me a minute."

got up and went straight to the kitchen. The thought of Amanda's current disheveled state made him wish he could lay his hands on the person who took her away.

Meanwhile, Amanda leaned back on the couch. She gradually calmed down as she listened to the sound of the waves outside.

At the same time, Hunter searched around the motel but found nothing. When he returned to the motel in a fit of anger and saw his foolish lackey, he couldn't contain his frustration.

"You useless piece of garbage! It's all your fault! You let her escape. How are we going to get the money now?"

"Hunter, I'm sorry. She lied to me. I was fooled-"

"Shut up! It's all your fault!"

"What should we do now?"

"What else can we do? We need to run. We're done for if we get caught! The worst part is that you let that woman see both of our faces. She'll definitely call the police! We can't any longer. Hurry up and run!" Hunter started packing up, preparing to flee.
