When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 Their Only Chance

Emiched

Bryson didn’t waste any time. He walked straight over to Dominic and, with practiced ease, hoisted him onto his back. Dominic’s leg still hadn’t healed; he couldn’t walk on his own and had to be carried.

The others looked at each other, then quietly got to their feet one after another, preparing to leave the cave with Dominic.

Ludwig took the lead, stepping out toward the mouth of the cave.

Jean followed beside him, fingers instinctively tightening. Staying hidden inside the cave would guarantee death; but stepping outside-

That would turn them into open targets. No matter what choice they made, danger was unavoidable.

Still, at least leaving the cave gave them a fifty–fifty shot at survival. Jean couldn’t help but glance at the boy next to her-

At this moment, every single one of them, including herself, was counting on Ludwig.

He was their only real chance of getting out of this.

As if sensing Jean’s gaze, Ludwig turned his head slightly. With pale skin and deep–set eyes, he looked like a proud white cat.

“Don’t worry.”

It was like he had read the worry in Jean’s mind. The corners of his mouth curled up just a little as he offered those words in a calming tone.

Ludwig had presence. It was only natural that the others put their trust in him.

Even though he looked young, there was something strangely reassuring about him–an aura that made people want to follow.

Dominic lifted his eyes slightly at that.

This boy who had suddenly appeared and clearly shared some sort of connection with Jean- Dominic didn’t fully trust him.

There was something off about him, something dark and slippery that rubbed Dominic the wrong way.

Still, Jean seemed to trust him. She even relied on him…

like they’d known each other for a long time.

Finished

Jean’s inner voice hadn’t revealed much about the boy. But even so, it was clear from her thoughts that she considered him powerful….

If this was someone his sister recognized as strong, then maybe he could put his faith in him- just this once.

Dominic lightly patted Bryson’s shoulder.

“What is it. Mr. Dominic?” Bryson instantly straightened, alert.

Dominic pressed his lips together and spoke in a low voice. “Just follow that kid.”

The “kid” he was referring to was Ludwig.

Bryson glanced at Ludwig’s tall figure up ahead and gave a firm nod.
