Chapter 164 Zoe Disappears (2)
Seeing Bruce no longer questioning himself, Zoe breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stuffed another bite into her mouth before hurriedly returning to her own room.
“Ah…”
Zoe took a long breath and her heart was still pounding.
“Bruce is too sharp. If we continue to delay, he might find out.”
Zoe opened the wardrobe and looked at her small backpack inside, which contained all the important things she had been collecting for the past few days.
The little body crouched on the ground, remaining silent for a long time.
“Let’s leave tomorrow…”
These days, the argument between dad and my brothers continues. I don’t mind it, but I still get a little affected.
She didn’t want to stay any longer, just like her sister, so she left.
Thinking, she took out a bag from the wardrobe and prepared some things that looked like camping gear, placing them on the desk.
The next day, the sky was not yet bright, even though it was the early morning of midsummer, it still felt a bit chilly.
Zoe shivered all over, wearing a thin coat, she walked out of the house. On the coffee table inside the house, there was a note she had written.
“Mom, Dad, and my two older brothers, I made plans with my classmates to go outside for a practical experience. You don’t need to worry.”
The heavy door closed, and Zoe’s figure was never seen again.
“Miss? How come you woke up so early?”
The butler who was repairing the bushes in the garden noticed a sound and immediately turned his head to look at the entrance.
Zoe looked uncomfortable as she stared at the butler.
“Ah, I had made plans with my classmates to go outside for a practical experience.”
The butler’s mouth opened, and the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat…
What kind of practice starts at six o’clock in the morning…
However, I am just an employee, it is better not to know too much about the employer’s affairs.
“Alright, miss. May I ask what I can assist you with?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. You keep busy, I have to leave immediately.”
Saying that, Zoe quickly picked up her backpack strap and was about to leave.
“Miss, then I will go and call a driver for you.”
“No need!”
The butler put down the watering can in his hand and was about to make a phone call to wake up the driver.
Zoe hurriedly interrupted the butler’s inappropriate behavior.
Walked out with big strides.
“We had to go by ourselves! It had to be written down.”
Saying that, he left the Horton family’s gate and the butler stood still in the same place, neither moving nor calling.
“Okay, it seems like the homework at Miss’s school is extraordinary.”
Zoe, who had escaped from the Horton family, took a deep breath, easing the feeling of her heart about to burst out of her chest.
“Phew… Luckily, my family didn’t wake up this early. Dad must have slept late last night, and his sneakers are still in the shoe cabinet.”
Zoe, who let out a sigh of relief, did not choose to take the bus. Instead, she walked away from this road full of surveillance cameras and into the nearby woods.
She knew the means at home, so she tried her best to avoid being caught on camera.
The mixed feelings of nervousness and excitement made Zoe’s stomach ache a little.
She stood still, her mind still in a complete mess. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
For a long time, she took out the hat from her backpack, lowered the brim, and covered her face.
Walked cautiously into the woods, unaware of any trace…
At half past eight in the morning, members of the Horton family started waking up one by one and getting everything ready. It was already nine o’clock.
When I arrived downstairs, I was surprised to see Zoe’s pink sticky note on the beige coffee table.
“Hmm?”
Bruce felt his stubble and furrowed his brow slightly as he walked toward the note.
Looking at the handwriting above, his drowsiness instantly disappeared.
Thinking back to Zoe’s awkward acting last night.
Bruce’s heart suddenly became uneasy.
Something just doesn’t feel right.
