As Olivia stood on the cliff, the wind tousled her hair. Below her, the clouds and mist blocked her view, so she couldn't make out any figures at all.
Olivia could understand why Ethan would choose this path. It was dangerous, but at least it was manageable as long as there was no rain.
This path was the only one without poison or wild beasts. The only danger was the weather, but he had experience in rock climbing.
But it was too dangerous for him to go down blindly without proper equipment. If he were even a little distracted, he would fall to certain death!
"Mrs. Miller, are you sure that Mr. Miller took that path?"
Olivia nodded. "His scent was cut off here. Look, there's also a length of rope. He must have made it before he left."
"I'll go look for him right now."
"No, you're not as familiar with this mountain as I am. Moreover, you have to get acupuncture for your leg every day, and you're banned from any vigorous activities.
"You don't want to be crippled for life, do you?"
Cyril started, "So you mean …"
Olivia patted him on the shoulder. "I'll do it. It's my territory, after all. I can't let him get in danger."
Moreover, she had already decided to leave soon. She was going to leave the mountain as well.
"Please take good care of Madam Wendy."
"You can't do this, Mrs. Miller. It's too dangerous."
"Just take care of yourself. I've done many dangerous things in the past, so what difference can one more make?"
With that, Olivia used Ethan's rope as she found a foothold before slowly descending. Ethan probably left sometime near dawn. If not, it would've been too dark and dangerous for him.
It had probably only been about two hours since he left. If she quickened her pace, she could catch up to him.
This wasn't Olivia's first time taking this path.
Back then, when she wanted to train, she made full use of this cliff.
