"My stomach really hurts. I can't bear it. Sir, is your brother back?"
A man's irritated voice sounded from outside, "Yeah."
He then came to the back.
Next, the door creaked open.
Bright light poured in.
Natalia and Nancy finally saw that this place was still in the bleak wilderness. There was no way to know where they were.
In front of them stood the man who had just spoken to them.
Looking at them with an impatient expression on his face, he asked, "Which one of you needs to go to the toilet?"
Natalia hastily raised her hand and said, "Me! I do!"
She seemed very urgent. Her face was exquisite. Her figure was slender. She looked like a flower with crystal dew.
Before, since it was in the dead of the night, the two men only cast a quick glance at them by the light of the torch to make sure they were alive.
They didn't get around to looking at their face.
But at this time, the day was already breaking. Though the darkness had not completely retreated, since it was about six in the morning, a ray of sunlight had burst out from behind the clouds and shone on Natalia's face, making her glow glamorously.
The man stared at her, spellbound by her beauty.
After a long while, he finally came to his senses.
"Oh, okay. I'll take you there."
He even took a pace forward and extended a hand to her.
"You know how to get off? Grab my hand."
Natalia smiled at him and nodded. "Thanks."
She then stretched out her hand.
Yet, she placed her other hand behind her back and made a gesture to Nancy.
She was telling Nancy that when she grabbed that man's hand, they should take action at once.
Their original plan was that Natalia would jump off when she seized that man's hand and swiftly subdue him.
After that, the man's brother, who was probably standing in the front of the car, would definitely rush over at once.
Then, Nancy would slip out from the other side, go to the front of the carriage, and take over the driver's seat.
With his brother being held hostage, the other man wouldn't dare to do anything to them. Natalia could then force the hostage to go into the carriage. After that, she would tie him up and gag him. Nancy would also drive the carriage away. The other man couldn't possibly catch up with them on his feet.
After getting rid of him, they could throw the hostage out on the way before driving back to the town and trying to contact Archie.
Natalia knew Archie must have long learned that she was in trouble. It was likely that he had already rushed here to look for her.
She never doubted Archie's love for her.
The plane she rode had been hijacked. This was a big deal. Archie certainly wouldn't delegate this issue to others.
Hence, he would absolutely come here in person. If he was here, he surely could find out their whereabouts.
But the targeted area was too large. Thus, he couldn't locate them in such a short time.
Even so, he and his men must be somewhere nearby. Natalia was sure of that.
Thus, if she could get in touch with Archie and tell him her accurate whereabouts, he would hurry over in the shortest time.
Once she reunited with Archie, all the danger would dissolve.
Natalia and Nancy thought this was a smart plan.
They had considered all the possible situations that could occur, no matter how unlikely some of them were.
They had even thought that they might run into the killers who were after them as soon as they arrived at the town.
Although they would be in dire danger if that happened, they had to take the risk, for there was no better alternative at the moment.
