Winner Takes All novel Chapter 985

It was under the night.

It was in the silent alley.

As the boy left, the snow soon covered the bamboo hat again.

It was under the bamboo hat.

Amanda struggled to support the bamboo hat desperately. With her strength, it was really difficult for her to support it as the snow on the bamboo hat kept increasing.

However, she remembered her brother’s advice when he left.

She also knew that she had to take care of Jack who was unconscious on the ground.

She persisted for a long time.

Amanda felt that her hands were sore and swollen as if she had poured lead into her arms. She desperately wanted to put down the bamboo hat and took a rest for a while.

“Amanda can do it. Amanda will definitely be able to hold on.”

Amanda’s lips trembled slightly as she kept reminding herself.

At such a young age, her face was cracked due to the cold, but her determination was unprecedented.

Time slowly passed.

It was quiet in the surrounding, except for the snow and wind.

As the snow on the bamboo hat kept increasing, it became even more unbearable for Amanda.

Her arms could not help but shiver and she was merely supported by her tenacious faith.

Finally, there was a subtle sound of footsteps coming from a distance.

Amanda who could not hold on any longer suddenly heard the sound of footsteps like an angelic voice.

But in a flash, she was worried and terrified.

Was the person outside her brother…or someone else?

If it was someone else…

Fear instantly enveloped Amanda.

She wanted to see clearly whose footsteps were coming from outside.

However, her vision was completely blocked by the bamboo hat supported by both hands. She could not see anything at all.

The greatest fear came from the unknown.

At this moment, Amanda was in this unknown state.

However, her body did not quiver at all even though she was really afraid. Instead, she gritted her teeth and struggled to support the bamboo hat, trying her best not to move it at all.

Perhaps…perhaps even if there was a bad guy outside, as long as she was well hidden enough, she would not be discovered and the bad guy would brush past?

Amanda hoped that she would be that lucky in her mind.

She could only wish for this small fluke in her current situation.

It was obviously bitingly cold.

Even if the night fell, the temperature dropped significantly.

However, there were beads of perspiration on Amanda’s forehead as she was worried and terrified at this moment.

It was at last.

There was a subtle voice calling her.

“Amanda, I’m your brother.”

When she heard this voice, Amanda who was initially so nervous calmed down instantly.

A mist immediately appeared in front of her clear eyes.

Clattering…

The bamboo hat was lifted by the boy and the snow poured down.

“Brother.”

Amanda immediately leapt into the boy’s arms and cried out sobbingly.

The boy was stunned as his pale and cracked face suddenly became gentle.

He did not say much.

Instead, he quickly helped Amanda sit down and raised one hand to wipe away the tears in Amanda’s eyes. He smiled gently, “Remember, you can’t cry. My Amanda is a determined child. Tears are only reserved for the weak. Even if your brother is no longer around, you also can’t cry.”

Amanda nodded and raised her hand to wipe away the tears in her eyes.

Then, she raised her eyes and looked at her brother, “Brother will always be with Amanda.”

The boy was startled for a second and he smiled gently, “Yes, always by your side.”

While speaking, he brought the parcel in his hand to Amanda and said with a smile, “Look at what brother has brought back for you?”

Amanda was excited when she saw the parcel, “Such a big parcel, is there lots and lots of delicious food?”

“Foodie, you just know how to eat. Open eat yourself and take a look.”

The boy handed the parcel to Amanda. He raised his hand and caressed Amanda’s head dotingly. Then, he leaned against the wall and sat down panting with his mouth opened wide.
