Chapter 597 Hide and Seek
“Lea?” Kisa shouted while she walked toward the tree slowly due to the thick snow. Behind the tree, a tall man held Lea tightly with one hand covering her mouth. Lea shook her head vigorously, her anxiety showing through her brows.
“Lea…” The sound was getting closer. Lea looked up at the man’s cold jaw with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
Kisa was more than one meter away from the big tree when she suddenly remembered Gilbert telling her that
Lea was acting weird the night before.
She clenched her fists, hesitating a little as she asked, Lea? Are you playing hide and seek with me?” No response. “If you don’t come out now, I’m going back to the villa,” she lowered her gaze and said loudly.
Silence, dead silence. All Kisa could hear was the snow falling from the trees. The situation was very unusual; she dared not go any further.
Just as she was about to go back, she heard a sound behind her. It was the sound of someone stepping in the snow. Her body tensed up all of a sudden. ‘Is that Lea?
But if so, whose footprints are these in front of me?‘ The series of footprints were all going in one direction. It was obvious that there was a third person here.
‘Creak, creak, creak.‘ The sound of the footsteps was getting louder.
Kisa turned around carefully and saw Emma standing one meter away from her. “It’s you?” Kisa frowned and glanced behind Emma. There was no one but her. She never expected Emma to show up. Emma smirked as she said, “Well, aren’t you in a holiday mood? You came all the way here with a limp just to see the snow?”
“It’s none of your business,” Kisa lightly replied. “What did you do to my friend?” she continued to ask coldly when she thought of Lea’s sudden disappearance.
