Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19

After hesitating for a moment, Henry stopped knocking on the door. He said to Vania, Boss, it seems like theres nobody in the house. The villages terrain is too complex, and were short of manpower. Its getting late now, so how about we spend the night in the car and make plans tomorrow morning?

Leo had a bad feeling as well. He chimed in, Henry is right. If anything wrong happens, things might get pretty tricky. Its important to save Little Master, but if were all ambushed and trapped here, well lose more than we gain. And besides, I dont think anything will happen to Little Master tonight.

Vania furrowed her brow. How could she not understand what Henry and Leo meant? She had been waiting for such a long time; why would she mind waiting a night longer? At this very moment, however, she had a sense that her child was no longer here. This wasnt the first time such a thing had

already able to accept it with equanimity. Still, unwilling to resign herself to the outcome, she said, “Lets open the door and take a look. Dont go in, though. Be careful.”

Henry nodded. Got it,he said while placing his hand on his waist and curling his fingers around the weapon he had brought with him. Then, he kicked the door open effortlessly with a thud. The door wasnt locked.

The house was so small that one could see the inside of it at a glance. It was dilapidated and empty, with no sign of a human.

This is bad, thought Henry to himself. He immediately stepped back, saying, Boss, we gotta get out of here.There was nobody in the house, but the candle was lit. Obviously, someone had purposely set them up. If their purpose was only to prevent them from finding Vanias son, they wouldnt have needed to go to so much trouble. Obviously, this was a trap designed for them.

Upon hearing Henrys words, Vania immediately realized what was going on. She and her men had found out the address on their own, but Melanie knew the address too. If it werent for Melanies instigation, how could the bunch of human traffickers possibly have moved her son away overnight from the small and poorly connected mountain village? I wondered why Melanie would give me the real address so easily. Turns out shes waiting to spring a trap on me here, huh? Ha! Shes really gone out of her way to deal with me, hasnt she? She had imagined so many scenes of her reuniting with her son, but now, all her hopes and efforts had gone up in smoke. At this moment, she was disappointed as well as resentful.

However, just as the three of them were about to leave, six burly men suddenly popped up from nowhere and blocked their path.

By the dim candlelight in the house, Vania, Henry, and Leo could vaguely make out the six mens burly figures and the ferocious looks on their faces. Obviously, they were here to find trouble with them. In an instant, the three of them placed their hands on their waists and held onto their weapons, having readied themselves for battle.

Just then, one of the six men stepped forward and guffawed loudly in front of Vania, saying vulgarly, Wow, what a hottie indeed! Seems like we didnt come here for nothing today.Then, he stopped laughing and said to Vania with a ferocious expression, Just save us the trouble and dont resist so that youll suffer less. The three of you are no match for us, anyway.

Vania was now certain that these people were after her life. If the three of them were to die in this remote mountainous area, no one would probably be able to trace it down to Melanie. At such and place, she and her men could only depend on themselves. Trying to buy time for an opportunity to escape, she said, Who are you? And what do you want, money? As long as you let us off, the five million in cash in our hands will be yours.

The six men burst out laughing upon hearing Vanias words. Haha! Bro, seems like we didnt come to this f*cking place for nothing; we can earn five million more! Haha...”

The man who had stepped forward just now seemed to be their leader. With a sprig dangling from his lips, he said roguishly, You guys are right. This babe looks delicate and tender. How bootylicious.

Haha! Bro, lets not waste our breath talking to them. Just hurry and finish them off before we go back to town and paint the town red.

Their leader replied, You guys are right.Then, he leered at Vania, saying, Well have both your money and you today.

How dare you!Henry and Leo immediately stood in front of Vania to protect her.

Upon seeing this, the six men roared with laughter once again. Wow! These two toy boys want to be the hero who saves the damsel in distress! Haha... they said.

As they spoke, they began to stretch their wrists, necks, and joints, which produced cracking sounds as they did so.

Bro, let‘s hurry up and strike instead of wasting our breath talking to them.

Our hands are itching terribly.

Just the sight of this little hottie makes my body gp limp: Lets hurry up and take her down for our enjoyment.

The mens offcolor remarks were disgusting to hear.

Then, as their leader waved his hand, they immediately rushed at Vania and the others after having produced some gas bombs in their hands from nowhere.

All of a sudden, the gas bombs exploded in front of Vania and the others, producing thick fog that made them unable to see the six men before them. Vania took out the flying daggers used for self defense from the bag her three kids had given her before throwing them at the men.

Startled, the six men swore, Watch out, guys! This womans got a weapon!
