Facade of Love (Yvette Scott and Idris Young) novel Chapter 434

Rebecca’s face contorted unnaturally, as if she wanted to smile but could not. She touched her face awkwardly, perhaps in pain, then lowered her head and said, "I tripped while walking just now. It's nothing."

With my mind preoccupied with Chandler's situation, I did not press further and said, "You should go back and apply some medicine. Your face is injured. You need to take care of it."

She responded with a faint hum, then looked in the direction of the cell. "Ms. Scott, are you planning to distract the two guards at the gate?"

I nodded. Over the past few days, she had been following me around and probably guessed what I was planning. I had not been too cautious with her, thinking that her simple nature would keep her from revealing anything.

Seeing my nod, she said, "I'll go, then!"

As she prepared to move forward, I grabbed onto her. With a serious expression, I whispered, "Rebecca, today I don't just want to check on Mr. Copper. I want to take him away from here, to help him escape."

She paused for a moment, not seeming very surprised. She simply nodded and said, "Alright. I’ve got it, Ms. Scott."

Her lack of questions surprised me a little. I could not help but ask, "Aren't you worried that Lucas will come after you for helping me?"

She seemed to think for a moment and then asked, "Are you planning to escape with him?"

I hesitated before replying, "I won't be leaving for now." I wanted to stay behind to seek revenge for Officer Jackson.

Hearing this, she said, "That's fine. Mr. Lucas cares about you, and he'll speak up for me. So, I should be fine."

After that, she headed directly toward the cell. I did not know what she said to the two guards, but they left their posts one after the other.

As the guards left, she waved at me. I hastily entered the cell.

Chandler was still locked in the iron cage, lying on the ground and trembling all over. His lips were trembling, and he was turning pale. I was stunned by his condition and did not know what had happened. I called his name several times, but he did not respond.
