Facade of Love (Yvette Scott and Idris Young) novel Chapter 430

His words were incomprehensible. Before I could ask him what he was up to, he walked away.

This man had disrupted my peaceful time, and that certainly did not improve my mood.

Alice was pregnant?

Was the child Idris'?

There were some things that one could not remain indifferent to. Even though I presented myself as resolute and unconcerned in front of Lucas, how could I truly remain indifferent about the man I cared about?

This night was destined to be a restless one.

Nonetheless, time did not allow me to wallow in this discomfort. Two days later, Rebecca suddenly approached me and whispered, "Ms. Scott, someone wants to meet you."

I was momentarily taken aback, unable to comprehend the situation. I stared at her blankly, asking, "Meet me? Who?"

She pulled me aside mysteriously and led me for quite a while. Eventually, we got down to where the electric fence was set up at the base of the mountain. Electric fences surrounded the entire mountain to prevent the people inside from escaping and outsiders from entering.

To my surprise, I saw the peddler who had helped me pass messages on several occasions standing outside the electric fence.

The peddler looked at me from outside the fence and said, "Ms. Scott, your family has come."

I did not react immediately and then noticed a deeply tanned Gregory. At first, I did not recognize him until he looked at me and excitedly exclaimed, "Yvette, are you okay?"
