Chapter 379

Author: Lightmoon
To her disbelief, the woman glanced at her once and simply walked away.

Marisol could hardly comprehend it. Regardless of whether this was an abduction or some other scheme, how could her captors be so irresponsible? What would happen if she actually died here?

Wait a moment. She and the wolf had been locked in this standoff for quite some time now, so why hadn't it attacked yet? She rethought the situation.

Perhaps this wolf didn't have a taste for humans.

Since death seemed inevitable either way, Marisol decided to take a bold risk. She moved her leg slightly, attempting to step forward. The moment she tried to advance, however, the wolf's jaws clamped around her calf.

Though it didn't bite down completely, she could tell that one more step forward would result in torn flesh if the creature didn't release its grip.

Even without drawing blood, the wolf already seemed ravenous. She shuddered to think what might happen once it actually tasted her blood.

Marisol forced herself to

  • Turning Heads After Divorce   Chapter 389

    Marisol had made up her mind. For the next few days, she behaved. Even though she knew the housekeepers here wouldn't acknowledge her, she still tried talking to anyone who came into her room from time to time. When no one responded, she'd just talk to herself without caring.She even got bold enough to stroke the wolf that had been sleeping in her room every night.Maybe it was their failed attempt at being "partners-in-crime" during the kitchen raid attempt, but seeing the wolf now stirred less fear in her heart. Though she remained cautious, she no longer cowered in terror when it occasionally approached or nibbled her. She needed to adapt to this place quickly. Only by adapting could she find patterns and opportunities, slowly figure out the situation here, and discover a chance to escape. Every day, Marisol would put on the ill-fitting dresses, cover herself with the veil, and eat whatever Cerulean cuisine the man occasionally prepared in the garden. The flavors were all fa

    A creeping realization struck Marisol, filling her with terror.Yet, he said nothing more. The cold muzzle of a gun was pressed against the back of her head. Marisol pressed her lips together tightly and could only go along with his words. She was struggling to speak. "It tasted... very similar.""Very similar isn't the same..." he murmured. Seeing him about to turn and leave, Marisol panicked. She ignored the gun barrel against the back of her head as she struggled to stand up."Stop! What's your real purpose in capturing me? If you're trying to threaten the Mullers, you—"She wanted to say they'd caught the wrong person, but her fingers accidentally caught the veil hanging over her chest, and she nearly pulled it off. Her palm suddenly blazed with pain. It was searing and unbearable. Her unfinished words were cut off by screams as she collapsed to the ground. She clutched her left palm that had been pierced by the bullet. Blood started gushing from the wound. She writhed on

    Marisol was both hungry and terrified, and she endured until dawn like this. Later, the housekeeper came as usual to feed the wolf, then took her to the bathroom for her routine bath. This time, the dress they gave her was a pure white gown made of tulle. However, it was still too tight, ill-fitting, and uncomfortable.After being veiled as usual, Marisol was once again led to the garden. There, she saw the man sitting at the long garden table, having his meal. She was also led to the dining table and seated across from him. In front of her sat a bowl of bone broth.Seeing the soup, Marisol's heart skipped a beat.What did this mean? Had he discovered her wandering around last night? Was this a warning? Her thoughts were in chaos. The housekeeper standing nearby gestured for Marisol to drink the soup. Through her veil, she could see the man across from her, who was also watching her. She had no choice but to pick up the soup bowl.Due to the fear in her heart, Marisol didn't

    Marisol pressed her back against the couch, keeping her breathing light. Her chest rose and fell subtly, and sweat had begun to bead on her forehead.Had he seen her? She didn't dare peek out again and waited in agony for the worst-case scenario. Every second felt like an eternity. She held her breath like this for quite a while, but never heard approaching footsteps. Instead, she heard a beeping sound followed by the noise of a door being pushed open. He hadn't noticed her, then? After waiting a bit longer, Marisol carefully peeked out and saw the kitchen door ajar with no figure in sight. He must have gone inside and hadn't spotted her.Marisol breathed a slight sigh of relief. However, she found it odd that someone would come to the kitchen in the middle of the night.He couldn't possibly be hungry like her, could he?Just as she was thinking this, she was startled by a loud thud. The sound came from the kitchen, and after the initial shock, her instinct kicked in. She had

    From spending time together, Marisol knew this wolf was intelligent. She took a deep breath, unsure if this foreign wolf could understand Cerulean, so she simply gestured at the wolf with hand signals. First, she mimicked a large dinner plate, filled with meat, then made eating motions, indicating she'd take it to get some meat.This was her only gamble. The wolf tilted its head, its golden eyes gleaming with cold light in the darkness. After a tense standoff, the wolf's head suddenly moved closer. Marisol closed her eyes and sighed. "Great. I failed."But then she felt the hem of her dress being bitten and tugged forcefully. Opening her eyes, she saw the wolf gripping her dress hem with its teeth. It was dragging her toward the door, and drool was streaming everywhere.Marisol was speechless. Apparently, this wolf was a glutton.Perfect. She liked that.Marisol's spirits lifted as she and the wolf, with its sparkling eyes, snuck out of the room under the cover of darkness and

    The man continued reading his book, and Marisol finally couldn't take it anymore. If things went on like this, she wouldn't even have the strength to run, let alone fight back.She spoke up. Her voice was weak but gentle. "Sir, please give me a straight answer. What exactly do you want? Is it money or something else? If it's money, I have it. If it's something else, name it. If I don't have it, I'll find a way to get it for you, just let me go."Besides, I'm worthless to you dead, and you don't need to wear me down like this. I have no intention of resisting. Just make your demands, and I'll do everything I can to meet them."She didn't even know where she'd been taken. She also didn't know if anyone would find this place, if anyone would come rescue her, or when they might arrive. She was very clear about her situation and had no intention of resisting whatsoever. As long as he didn't kill her, she'd go along with whatever he wanted. She wanted to live. When he didn't respond,
