Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 499

The crowd on the second floor were stupefied.

They heard a loud crash but didn't know who it was that tumbled down the stairs.

A few of them turned around and looked in the direction of the stairs, only to see Christina standing there. This only meant that the person who fell down the stairs was Anya.

The housekeepers' expressions darkened in an instant. Then, they hurried over and discovered Anya unconscious, lying at the bottom of the stairs.

“This is bad. Ms. Gibson has fainted. Call the ambulance now!”

“Let's go check on Ms. Gibson.”

The few housekeepers ran toward the stairs and rushed down. At that point, they couldn't care less about Christina. After they lifted Anya, they ran out like the wind.

It wasn't until the group of people left in a hurry that Christina finally felt relaxed.

Earlier, when the two were in the middle of the fight, Anya wanted to push her down the stairs. Fortunately, she swiftly dodged it, causing the other woman to lose balance and fall instead.

Christina came to her senses and ran back to the room. She opened the door and saw the two kids hugging each other tightly.

“Come here, Lucas and Camila. We need to leave this place immediately!”

The two kids hurried over and threw themselves into Christina's embrace. Carrying one of them in each arm, she went downstairs.

Soon, they arrived at the garage. Christina found her car, put the kids into their seats, then drove off.

At the main door, the metal gate was tightly closed.

The man who guarded the door and several bodyguards blocked their way. “Please step out of the car, Ms. Christina. You cannot leave without Old Mrs. Gibson's permission.”

The tension in the air was so thick that one could cut it with a knife. The kids looked at Christina worryingly and cried, “Let's leave, Mommy. We don't want to stay here!”

With a faint grin, Christina turned around and said, “Sit tight and buckle up.”

They were obedient and immediately leaned back into their seat and fastened their seatbelts. Then, they focused their clear eyes on the front.

Narrowing her gaze, Christina's eyes lit up before she stepped hard on the gas pedal without hesitation, slamming the car to the metal gate.

The impact of the car was so huge that it dented the metal gate at once.

Naturally, the collision also caused the car hood to be deformed. However, Christina was unbothered and immediately put her car in reverse and moved back before stepping hard on the gas pedal again.

This time, the car instantly sped forth like a rocket. The engine roared as the car accelerated, but alas it failed to smash the gate open.

The bodyguards that tried to stop Christina were stunned.

No one dared to step forward to stop her car anymore as they didn't want to get run over. This was only a job to them, so there was no need for them to put their lives on the line.

Subsequently, Christina made another reverse before accelerating into the main gate again. Following the collision, the car hood was utterly deformed. However, the good news was that the metal gate was knocked down too.

Now that there were no obstacles standing in her way, she sped away from the Gibson residence with the kids.

“Where are we going, Mommy?” Lucas asked, his eyes filled with worry.

At the same time, Camila looked behind them. “Do you think they'll come after us?”

The children were terrified after being locked up for the past few days.

Christina's expression darkened when she heard her children's words. “They won't. I'll bring us to Daddy.”

The most important thing weighing on Christina's mind was to locate Nathaniel at once. It would only take slightly over two hours to return from Hallsbay, and they would be much safer in the comfort of their home.

Before their car could go far, however, they noticed a few black sedans driving out of the mansion. The commotion from earlier must have alerted Azure, prompting her to send people to come after the trio.
