Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1153

Raeleigh and Cynthia held each other's hands tightly. Raeleigh would be lying if she said she wasn't worried. She said it because she did not want Cynthia to worry. As for how worried she was, she was actually more worried than Cynthia.

She was afraid that Santiago would not be able to dodge when she saw them thrusting their daggers forward. However, she did not to dare exert pressure on Cynthia's hands, as once she did so, Cynthia would know that she was actually worried.

Although Santiago could take those men down alone, there would be a moment where one of them might run loose. Then, several of them tried to go after Raeleigh and Cynthia. Santiago failed to stop them and yelled, "Run!"

Raeleigh instantly turned around and pulled Cynthia to follow her. Although she managed to get out of there in time, she did not dare to run fast.

"Cynthia, they might be coming for you. You should hide. We'll be fine as long as you don't come out." Raeleigh wanted Cynthia to go into hiding, but she refused. "No, I can't let you be in harm's way because of me. You should hide, Raeleigh. You're pregnant."

When Raeleigh realized she had failed to convince Cynthia, she continued running, pulling Cynthia along with her until they searched around and found a couple of sticks. She picked them up and handed them to Cynthia. "Here, take this. Use this to defend yourself. Make sure that they do not approach you."

"Got it," Cynthia said as she held the stick in her hand. "Don't worry. I'll protect you."

Raeleigh was speechless. She did not know what else to say when she heard Cynthia saying that she would protect her.

Cynthia's entire body was trembling. How was she going to protect her?

Raeleigh did not give in. She found a stick and looked at the road ahead. "Let's find a crowded place. I'm sure Scarlette will be here soon."

"Alright."

Then, Cynthia followed Raeleigh. It was a tourist spot, and there must have been people visiting during the day. It was currently lunch hour, and most of them were in the restaurants. Those thugs still dared to chase after them. Even if there were people along the way, they had all hidden.

Raeleigh led Cynthia to the restaurants. She thought before saying, "Let's not go inside. We'll hide at the back. Come on."

Raeleigh knew that those thugs would search along that place, but they would not show up in a group, maybe one or two will turn up. They had to make it seem as though they had entered the restaurant. People were generally selfish, and she doubted that anyone would help cover and hide their tracks.

Raeleigh and Cynthia hid behind the restaurant. Raeleigh comforted Cynthia. "Don't be afraid. We need to protect ourselves. I'm sure Santiago will be fine. He will even die to protect us."

Cynthia nodded vigorously, and her face turned pale out of fear. Raeleigh lowered her head and looked at Cynthia's torn dress. She bent down and tore off pieces of Cynthia's dress, and she then ordered her, "Don't move. Wait for me right here."

"Alright." Cynthia was scared out of her wits. She could only agree to it.

Raeleigh walked to the front with a couple of pieces of Cynthia's torn dress in hand and scattered them at the door to make it seem as if they had entered the restaurant. Then, Raeleigh quickly led Cynthia into the woods to hide.

"Do we really have to stay here? If they find us, then we're doomed." Cynthia came to her senses and immediately pointed out. Raeleigh shook her head and said, "No, I doubt they will be able to find us. Don't worry. Help is on the way."

"Is that true?" Cynthia was in disbelief. Raeleigh then said, "Scarlette is on the way, and I'm sure Santiago will be able to defeat those thugs. Let's walk a little deeper into the woods. I'm sure they will not be able to find us."

In fact, Raeleigh was exhausted, but she had no choice. She had to lead Cynthia out of danger.

Finally, they arrived at a safe place. There was a deep ditch in the depths of the forest. It was covered by the fallen leaves. Raeleigh accidentally stepped on it and fell into the ditch. As Raeleigh was holding Cynthia's hand, she, too, fell into the ditch. Then, Raeleigh said, "Let's hide here and wait for Scarlette to rescue us."
