When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 They Found Us

Ludwig’s gaze, calm and unreadable, settled quietly on her with a hint of scrutiny.

He didn’t speak; he just stared in silence.

Jean had no idea what he might be thinking–and honestly, she didn’t want to know.

It was obvious that, to Ludwig, she had now become someone mysterious, someone who had been hiding their true strength all along.

He was probably curious to know more–like what other skills she had, or what her real role was in the Shenyin Organization.

“We’re going in,” Jean muttered, avoiding the boy’s gaze as she quickly ducked back into the cave like she was fleeing.

Ludwig might have been under orders to protect her unconditionally for now, but she still hadn’t figured out how he really felt about her.

If he ever found out that the real Jean was long gone… Jean shook her head and shiver.

If he ever found out, it’d be a disaster. She had to keep that secret buried.

gave a slight

Jean stepped back into the cave. Ludwig didn’t linger either and followed close behind.

At the same time, Dominic was recovering well.

It felt like things were finally beginning to return to normal. With his leg treated in time, they had. managed to prevent the permanent damage he was originally destined for. All they had to do now was wait for the rescue team to arrive.

However-

Things never went as smoothly as expected.

A sudden gunshot rang out without warning, blasting through the stillness and crashing into everyone’s ears.

Jean froze; dread surged through her instantly. The shot had come from close by–probably right outside the cave.

Had the people behind us found us?

There was no reason for a rescue team to open fire. And when she considered everything that had happened so far, it seemed almost certain–Dominic had been discovered by whoever was after

them!

At that moment every single one of her thoughts echoed clearly in Dominic’s mind.

The man frowned slightly. He didn’t know who this supposed “mastermind” was, or who exactly the “bad guys” might be….

Jean’s thoughts had left him feeling a little lost in the fog.

Then-

More gunfire rang out right by their ears. The others in the cave finally realized how serious the situation was; one by one, their eyes went wide with fear.

Ludwig pressed his lips together and looked toward the cave entrance. His expression barely changed. His eyes, cool and deep, flickered with a trace of interest.

Dominic lifted his gaze just a little. His face, handsome and composed, gave away nothing.

Compared to the chaos and panic of everyone else, these two were remarkably calm and

collected.

Jean’s brow furrowed deeper. She rubbed her fingers together, then made a quick, decisive call.

“Everyone, we can’t stay in this cave any longer.”

Her voice was steady and firm. “We need to get out. Now.”
