The Divorced Heiress Is Getting Married Again novel Chapter 201

201 Run 

All of a sudden, Samantha felt like the rug was pulled out from under her feet

She did not know what was happening and she had no idea what she had to do to make it stop

Both Elizabeth and John had already left their quiet corner and returned to the heart of the party, but Samantha was rooted in the same place; she could not move at all

ArrestedI am going to get arrestedBut why? How? What did I do?‘ 

Frustration and delusion were clouding her mind and she struggled to wrestle with a relentless wave of unsettling feelings. Perhaps it was not true after all? Maybe it was just a cruel joke? It had to be

She could not believe that there was something to arrest her for and yet, at the same time, she could not deny that the list of her wrongdoings was practically endless

‘I can’t do thisI can’t let this happen to me! Why does it have to be me?” 

Without even realizing it, her fingers reached for her neatly styled hair and started moving around, tugging at separate locks and turning her hairdo into a complete mess. Her hands kept painfully pulling and twisting, long strands of her straight brown hair catching on her rings and nails, breaking under pressure, but Samantha could not care less about that

She felt like she was going insane, but she could still distinctly care about one thingher 

future

I have to get out of hereYes, I can’t just stay here and let them get to me like that! Who do they think they are, deciding my future for me? Arrested? No, no, no, no, no! I won’t let them do this! I have been protecting myself since I learned how to walk; there is no way I can just give up like 

that

A somewhat vicious, mad grin appeared on Samantha’s dry lips and her eyes glistened with strong determination

She could do it. She just had to run for it; just had to hide and let it pass. That was the only thing she could think of and there was no time to waste

So she started walking

Gliding through the hallway like a snake, she hid from corner to corner, glaring at every single person with mad, frightened eyes as if she were scared that someone would jump on her and pin her down at any moment

She did not care for the occasional strange looks someone would give her as she –in a blur, her hands trembling and her messy hair covering half of her pale face

She had to get out of there. She had to do it now

passed by them 

At last, passing by the guest bathrooms, the woman snuck out through the main door, and once the cold winter air went through her body, sending a stiffening chill down her spine, Samantha gasped, finally realizing that she had been holding her breath this entire time

201 Fun 

Good thing all the guests have already arrived,she thought as the cold air helped her regain some clarity. I should run toward the main road that leads to the citySomeone ought to stop their car to help a pregnant woman, right?” 

Where is that psycho anyway?Daphne mumbled under her breath as she walked through the mingling crowd of the mansion’s living room

The biggest event of the eveningSamantha’s and Richard’s public arrestwas looming dangerously close, but now that the girl looked around to make sure that the main characters were present, she realized that Samantha was nowhere to be found

Richard was already halfdrunk, leaning over the bar and talking to someone who was sharing 

his newfound love for alcohol, so his position was more or less secure. The absence of his wife, however, made Daphne feel a little nervous

chilly 

Mrs. Bennett,she stepped onto the terrace where Amelie was finding solace in the embrace of the winter evening. She felt rather anxious herself and with so many people around, she desperately needed a breath of fresh air

Daphne?She asked as she turned around. Is something the matter?” 

I can’t seem to spot Samantha among the guests. I don’t think she’s gone anywhere, but I would feel a lot better if I knew where she is at all times!” 

Amelie offered the girl a light smile. She is probably somewhere around. Go look at the second. floor and I will ask Liam and Austin to help me look for her on the first floor

Alright, will do, Mrs. Bennett.” 

Daphne nodded and left the terrace, rushing toward the stairs while Amelie turned back around, looking at the falling snow that had already covered the mansion’s area with a thin, white blanket that sparkled under the silver moonlight
