Chapter 185 Wait for Her to Ask for Help

Not long after Yvette went down, she found Lance leaning against a tree. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

He glanced at her when he saw her coming down.

Yvette didn’t want to see Lance, so she walked some more distance and sat in the shade of a tree to wait for

Joseph.

It was noon. Yvette was halfway up the mountain and it was very hot there. She was parched.

However, her only bottle of water had just rolled out of sight.

Yvette didn’t know how she should survive the next two days because Joseph probably wouldn’t give her any

water.

Unless she admitted defeat.

Yvette saw Lance walk down from above. She directly closed her eyes. She wouldn’t feel annoyed when she

didn’t see him.

When Lance passed by Yvette, the familiar cold fragrance of his drifted over.

Yvette heard a bang and opened her eyes. It was Lance throwing a bottle of water that he had drunk to the

ground.

She frowned and thought to herself, why didn’t I find out earlier that he’s so rude a man who throws trash

everywhere?

Bored, Yvette looked at the water bottle. Under the sunlight, she saw a faint flow of water inside.

Yvette couldn’t believe it. She rubbed her eyes and observed the bottle again. It was half full!

She held herself for five minutes, not making a move. After another five minutes, she couldn’t help but finally

walked towards the water bottle.

Yvette picked up the water bottle. She had mixed feelings.

She comforted herself that at least she knew that Lance was healthy.

The mineral water sparkled under the refraction of the sun, seducing Yvette, whose throat was burning

because of dryness.

Yvette made up her mind and unscrewed the cap of the bottle, but she didn’t put her lips on it. Instead, she

slightly raised her head and poured the water into her mouth.

There was only half a bottle, so she didn’t dare to drink too much and just took two or three sips.

As soon as Yvette put down the bottle, she saw Lance coming back. He narrowed his eyes and stood in front

of her with his arms crossed.

His eyes were like saying that Yvette was a pervert who drank the water he had thrown away.

“Eh-hem…” Yvette started coughing unceasingly.

Her face went red because of that.

Lance reached out his hand. Yvette thought that he was going to take the water away, so she subconsciously hid it in her arms. “I’ll pay you back when I go down the mountain,” she said immediately.

Lance’s white hand stiffened. After a while, he said with a cold face, “Save it.”

Yvette looked at his gloomy face. She guessed that Lance didn’t want to have any contact with her again.

It just so happened that she didn’t, either. She believed that Lance, the rich boss, wouldn’t care about the bottle of water.

Seeing Yvette put the half bottle of water into her bag like a treasure, Lance’s eyes darkened.

The atmosphere was frigid, then Joseph and Kali came up.

Joseph looked very unpleasant, and his blue hair was messy.

He threw Kali onto Lance and said angrily, “Lance, take care of your woman.”

Joseph would have climbed up there much faster if it wasn’t for Kali holding his arms tight all the way.

Kali felt very wronged. If she had known this earlier, she would never have followed Lance there even if he gave her thousands of dollars.

She held Lance’s arm and said sweetly, “Lance, I want to go home. Can you go back with me?”

“I’ll get someone to pick you up,” Lance glanced at her Kali and said.

Kali’s face changed. Obviously, it meant that she had to go back alone.

Last time when Lance said that he didn’t want to see Kali again, Kali cried all night when she went back and her eyes were swollen from crying.

Kali’s parents didn’t want to see their daughter hurt, so they personally visited Lance. They didn’t say much, just asking Lance to treat Kali as a friend.

They knew that Kali was only being stubborn and her feelings would fade away as time passed.

Lance stopped driving Kali away for her parents’ sake. He even kindly brought Kali to mountain climbing.

However, Lance realized that kindness wouldn’t work out and that he should just scare Kali off.

Kali thought, no, I won’t give up just like this.

Moreover, Lance’s ex-wife is here coveting him. Something will definitely happen between them if I leave now.

Kali looked at Lance’s handsome face which was delicate like a sculptor’s. She was instantly filled with

strength and firmly shook her head, “I’m staying.”

Kali just couldn’t give up that pretty face of Lance’s.

She liked only good-looking people and Lance was so far the most attractive man to Kali.

Lance glanced at Kali and didn’t say anything else.

It was already past noon.

Joseph took out all kinds of fast food in his bag for everyone to choose from. His eyes were slightly provocative when he looked at Yvette.

It was as if he was saying, “Are you hungry? If you are hungry, admit defeat.”

Yvette turned her face away, not watching them eat.

Not long later, the smell of food floated out. Yvette was also a little hungry. She took out the beef jerky from her bag and divided them into pieces after doing some math. Then she ate 3 portions to ease her hunger.

Fortunately, she was prepared. Although her bag was small, it was full of useful things.

After lunch, they went on climbing. Finally, they arrived at the top of the mountain by nightfall.

Joseph took some workers to set up the tent, but he threw Yvette’s tent to her and had her do it herself.

Yvette was still hammering when other people’s tents had already been set up. There was one time that she

hit too hard and her hand was knocked by the hammer. She couldn’t help but let out a scream, tears coming

out of her eyes.

The next second, her vision darkened and she saw Lance looking at her coldly.

Yvette looked up with tears in her eyes and subconsciously looked at Lance with eyes asking for help.

But she immediately lowered her head when she received Lance’s mocking gaze.

Yvette scolded herself for not bearing the lessons she had learned in mind.

She shouldn’t have forgotten that Lance hated her very much at that time.

Right then, Kali came out. She called to Lance, “Lance, it’s dinner time. Joseph has brought a lot of good

things. He even has beer!”

It was just some food, but it was enough to buy Kali off.

She seemed to have become closer to Joseph according to how she addressed Joseph now.

Lance looked down at Yvette who was nailing. He felt that he was starting to act cheap again and was

actually waiting for Yvette to ask for his help.

Lance’s lips curled up into a cold smile. Then he left without hesitation.

Only when Yvette felt that Lance had left did she relax and sit down on the ground.

She laughed at herself for her meaningless expectations.

Yvette spent a long time alone and finally set up the tent.

She was climbing the mountain all day and didn’t eat much food or drink much water. She was totally

exhausted.

Leaving everything on her mind behind, Yvette went into the tent, zipped it, and began to sleep.

She didn’t know how long she had been asleep when she was suddenly awakened by a slight sound.

She turned on the flashlight in alarm and shone it over. She shouted, “Who’s there!”

There seemed to be the sound of people running away outside. Yvette shivered and didn’t dare to stay in the

tent alone.

She tightened the spray, pulled open the tent, and shone outside. There was nothing.

But she didn’t dare to sleep again.

Her tent was at the end. After thinking for a while, Yvette walked over to Kali’s tent, which was protected in

the middle.

As soon as she reached the tent door, she heard Kali’s sweet and somewhat confused voice coming from

inside.

“Lance, no, don’t touch there. It’s itchy.”

Yvette’s expression changed when she heard that terrible voice.

She felt a blast of bone-piercing cold wind pouring into her heart.

She stood there stiffly for a few seconds.

Then she was back to her senses and walked back toward her tent.

She thought to herself, it’s normal for Lance to be with another woman.

He always wants to have sex and he will never hold back his desire.

Before Yvette could think more, a hand suddenly reached out in the darkness and violently covered her

mouth.

Yvette struggled with all her might.

But that hand grabbed her hair tightly. She was dragged to a darker place.
