Chapter: 1179

When we were finding our way out of the forest, I put marks all the way. Follow these marks and you can get back here.”

"And then?" Shelia asked, her eyebrows furrowed.

Victor looked straight into Shelia's eyes.

“Walk along this road.

When you meet villagers, borrow a mobile phone from them, and call this number."

Victor knew that Norton didn't intend to let him go.

Norton just wanted to play a game with Victor by throwing him into the forest.

Victor felt that if he couldn't escape this predicament, Shelia shouldn't be implicated. He had promised to give Shelia a family, bring her back to see his grandmother, and treat her as his own family. But it seemed that Victor could not fulfill the promise he made in the forest.

Holding Shelia's hand, Victor wrote a phone number on her palm with his fingertip.

“Shelia, call the number once you get hold of a mobile phone," he whispered.

"This is my grandmother's number. Call her and she will pick you up wherever you are.”

Shelia just looked down at her palm.

Seeing that Shelia didn't respond, Victor looked at her and asked in confusion, "Shelia?"

"No." Shelia pulled her hand back. Her eyes were a little red.

"I don't want to remember the number, nor do I want to."

“Shelia, be a good girl." Victor frowned. He was so anxious that he coughed violently as soon as he finished speaking.

Shelia remained adamant and clenched her fists. She just didn't want to spread her palm and let Victor write the phone number again.

Even if Norton couldn't hear what Victor and Shelia were talking about, he could tell that they were reluctant to leave each other.

With a condescending sneer, he said, “Tut, tut, tut, this is so touching. Such strong feelings for each other! I'm so moved by you."

Victor tensed up when saw Norton approaching them. He intuitively pulled Sheila behind him.

Victor was seriously injured and keeping himself standing steadily was taxing for him. It would be hard for him to fight off Norton.

Norton deliberately walked up to them slowly. Victor and Shelia stepped back.

Losing patience with them, Norton pulled Shelia towards him.

Norton was too fast for Victor to stop him.

“Let her go!"
