My Billionaire Husband (Vivian and Morris) novel Chapter 108

Vivian leaned against the tree trunk and watched the masked man drift away, a powerful desire to survive spurring her on, and eventually she stood up and followed the man step by step.

Being in the wilderness, it was about to get dark, and if she was really left here alone, Vivian didn't know what situation she would face.

But, she didn't want to die!

The masked man walking in front heard a sound behind him and turned around to see Vivian stumbling after him, and a flash of surprise flashed across the man's eyes.

He didn't say anything, but he slowed down a lot.

This woman was amazingly resilient.

The two walked for a while longer, until the twilight when they couldn't see the road at all. They found a suitable place to take shelter from the rain.

"Sure it's safe in here?"

This was a cave, and if a mudslide occurred, it could seal off the entrance at any time.

At that point, it would be tantamount to burying two people alive.

Vivian asked as she sat on the floor, leaning against the wall, her lips pale and weak as she looked at him.

"You can go outside."

The man glanced at her and went to get some dry wood and a lighter to start a fire.

After walking for half a day, Vivian was cold and tired, and finally felt a hint of warmth and fell asleep on the spot.

The man sitting across from her poked her with a stick, noticing that she was unconscious, while he looked at the bruise on her arm.

He hesitated for a moment and walked to her, reaching out to touch her, noticing in due course that she had a high fever, most likely an infection from her arm.

The masked man found the dagger from her and looked at her wound again, inwardly debating whether or not to help her.

But in the end, nothing was done, except to say, "It is merciful enough not to kill you."

......

It was noon the next day when Vivian woke up again.

Although her head was still foggy, the fever was gone and a strip of cloth was wrapped around her arm and the wound had been treated.

Fortunately, the cave didn't collapse.

She knew that the masked man had done this.

"Hello, is anyone there? Masked man, are you there?"

Sitting there and shouting, she didn't have any response and she didn't want to shout anymore.

Looking outside as the rain passed and the sky cleared, Vivian didn't dare to delay much and immediately got up and walked in the direction of the mountain beyond.

Deep in the woods, dense with thorns, it was hard to walk an inch, and she was hungry.

Dragging her tired body through the woods for the day, she found some wild fruits for her belly and drank some mountain water to support herself.

At night, Vivian found a large tree and climbed up into it to sleep, so that she would not have nowhere to escape in case the beasts came.

As expected, it was late at night, and Vivian really heard the wolf's cry.

Her heart fluttered with fear and panic.

The only thing she had to defend herself with was the dagger the masked man had left her, and now it was up to her to live or die.

Sleepless, she leaned against a large tree, trying to reduce her presence, but the sound of wolves barking gradually closer and closer made her feel extra insecure.

Especially in deep and dense forests, if she was faced with danger, no one could be there to save her.

Abruptly, a wolf craned its neck and howled.

The sound was very close and extraordinarily clear.

Vivian's heart was tense, and she felt insecure in such a dark night.

Vaguely, she spotted a few points of light appear, and when she took a closer look, she couldn't help but feel chill run down her back.
