Ashton gazed at me and scowled unhappily.

I parted my lips, but I didn’t know where to start.

It would be a bad idea to talk right now.

I wasn’t about to change my mind. Seeing my reaction, Ashton gave a self-deprecating laugh. “Ha!”

Shortly after, he schooled his expression carefully and commanded, “Move out of their way! Let her get

what she wants!”

“Ashton, do you know what you’re doing?” John refused to take the risk. Without his approval, his

subordinates didn’t budge at all.

“Joseph!” Ashton raised his hand. Upon receiving his order, Joseph left and soon returned with his men.

The men came in and scattered around John’s men. As Ashton’s men outnumbered John’s men, they

soon parted to give us a way out.

It was nighttime by now. The night breeze sent a chill down my spine. When I looked up and met

Ashton’s gaze, I promptly froze.

The bodyguard was smart enough to lead me through the crowd. John wanted to come after us, but

Ashton stopped him in time.

After we walked out of the garden, I turned back to see Ashton struggling to stop John from coming after

us.

The bodyguard soon brought me out of Stovall residence.

Right then, a black vehicle sped toward us and came to an abrupt stop in front of us.

The bodyguard removed the knife and ordered, “Get in the car, Ms. Stovall.”

Without much thought, I stepped forward and pulled the door open.

I thought we would be the only ones in the car, but there was someone else in there.

The person was dressed in a leather jacket and leather boots. Her entire outfit was black. If there wasn’t

a ponytail hanging behind her head, I would’ve thought she was a man.

Sensing my gaze, she turned and flashed a strange smile. “Ms. Stovall, finally we meet.”

I was certain that I had never met her in the past thirty years. However, she seemed to know who I was.

The bodyguard gave me a slight shove as he was afraid John’s men would come after us. After I entered

the car, he climbed in behind me.

The driver stepped on the accelerator and sped away.

As we took off, an inexplicable feeling rose in my heart. I felt terribly insecure.

Soon, the Stovall residence disappeared from sight. It took us some time before we boarded the last

plane to M Country.

The bodyguard and the lady were obviously working together, but strangely, they didn’t even converse

throughout our entire journey.

I turned to the woman and inquired, “Did GW send you here?”

The woman wasn’t as unpleasant as her looks suggested. She smiled at me. “Ms. Stovall, you’re a smart

woman. You’ll know when we arrive at our destination.”

She didn’t reveal anything to me, so I couldn’t help but stare at her.

Immediately, she realized what I was thinking about. “There’s nothing strange about this. My boss knows

you more than you do. He knows you’ll do anything for your child’s sake.”

I couldn’t even force out a smile by now. “Who is your boss?”

Her words gave me goosebumps. Who in the world would know me better than I know myself?

She merely grinned and turned over to rest, leaving me to ponder this matter the entire night.

We finally arrived at M Country in the morning. The black vehicle we were on weaved through the streets

effortlessly.

I looked out of the window at the changing sights which showed no hints of where we were.

We were in the city center a minute ago, but now we were in the countryside.

This went on for around one hour before I realized they were going in circles.

Do they seriously think I had a photographic memory?
