Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 341

From the dead of the night until the early hours of the morning, two tiny figures could be seen walking down the illuminated streets.

“Lucas, how much longer does it take to get there? I’m tired…” she trailed off as she sank to the floor. Sweat beaded on her forehead as she tried to catch her breath.

Lucas glanced at the map on his watch and noticed there were a few more kilometers before they reached their destination.

Walking for two hours without stopping was considered difficult for the two children.

However, they did not mind it. As long as their parents would stop arguing, they were willing to do anything.

Lucas took out two water bottles from his backpack. He handed one to Camila and said, “Drink some water to replenish your energy!”

The brother-sister duo gulped down a few mouthfuls of water as they sat side by side.

After some time, Lucas moved to squat in front of Camila. With his back facing her, he said, “Hold on a little longer. We’re almost there. Come on, I’ll give you a piggyback ride.”

His mother had taught him well since he was young. She always reminded him that Camila was a girl, and as her elder brother, he had to take good care of her.

Camila wiped the sweat off her forehead. Exhausted and sleepy, she climbed onto her brother’s back. without any hesitation.

Since Lucas was not used to giving people piggyback rides, he almost fell when he got up. It took him a while to regain his balance.

Because of that, the two tired children, who were feeling miserable about the journey, laughed.

“Don’t drop me, Lucas!” Camila wrapped her arms tight around Lucas’ neck as she giggled.

Lucas tightened his grip on her thighs. “Camila, don’t… don’t grab on so tight! L… I can’t breathe!”

Camila quickly let go and hugged Lucas’ shoulders instead as she leaned against his back.

“Lucas, hurry up. Otherwise, we won’t be home in time.”

Lucas hummed in response. He took tiny steps forward and resumed their journey to their destination.

“Camila, have you gained weight recently? Why do you feel much heavier than before?”

“Lucas, it’s not nice to tell a girl that she’s heavy. Your emotional intelligence is so low. I don’t think you’ll be able to find a wife in the future. Haha!”

Lucas was rendered speechless,

The sky was hazy. It was drizzling, accompanied by gusts of cold wind. The chilly weather jolted Christina awake. She yawned and stretched in bed.

She slowly opened her eyes and turned to glance at the window to see rain streaking down the panes. It’s

raining. I wonder if the kids are tucked in warmly.

Still groggy, she struggled to get out of bed. She grabbed her robe from the couch before leaving the bedroom.

Christina pushed open the door to the children’s room. It was close to dawn, and there wasn’t much light. in the room. She could see the blankets were folded neatly on the bed, and the bed was empty.

She quickly approached the bed and noticed the children were nowhere to be found.

All the drowsiness Christina felt left her body in an instant.

Her heart sank as she yelled, “Lucas? Camila?”

Where did they go?

Christina frantically searched through each bedroom on the second floor but could not find them. In a panic, she rushed down to the first floor and woke up all the housekeepers and the butler.

Tears welled up in Christina’s eyes. Her voice trembled as she asked. “Has anyone seen Lucas and Camila?”
