Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 Eme 

Emelie quickly stood up and grabbed a nearby tree branch. She started swatting at the bushes. 

But there was nothing there. 

The night wind rusted the leaves, making a shushing sound. Emelie looked up and saw the tree shadows twisted into eerie shapes in the darkness, like swaying hands. 

After staring at such a bizarre sight for a while, even the sound of the wind seemed like a woman’s mournful scream. 

Her mind was suddenly filled with countless horror movies. Even though she knew they were poorly made and fake, they still gave her a chilling thrill. 

Staying in this environment for too long, even without facing real danger, could still make one anxious 

Emelle tried again to hug the tree in front of her, hoping to climb up for a better view and spot a lit area in the distance to show her a way out. 

However, the tree she picked was a tall and slender red cedar tree, without any branches to grasp onto. Despite managing to climb about a meter high, her lack of strength led to a fall, hurting her back. 

Surprisingly, as she focused on the pain, her fear subsided. Emelle chuckled to herself, thinking the fall wasn’t for nothing. 

It was then that she faintly heard voices nearby. 

“Over here, dig here_” 

Enelle looked closely and saw flickering lights in the woods, 

“Are those people? she thought to herself. 

Emelie was initially relieved and wanted to go over and seek help. But then she realized it didn’t make sense. 

In the middle of the night, in the forest, how could there be people? 

Sensing trouble, Emelie tried to hide. However, her movement caught the attention of the people nearby, who then shone a flashlight toward her. 

“Who’s there? 

The bright Eight made Emelie close her eyes and turn her head. 

One of the men voiced, “Oh? Who’s this lady?” 

Emelle was unsure what to do when the two men approached her 

The shorter, chubby man used his flashlight to inspect Emelle from head to toe. “It is really a woman. Lost in the middle of the night out here, aren’t you?” 

Emelie noticed their dirty clothes and the earlier words. Were they digging? Digging a hole? 

Digging a hole at this hour. The sinister implication sent shivers down her spine 

If that was true, then there was a high chance they were trying to cover up a murder. 

“Damn, she’s pretty.” The shorter, chubby man’s expression changed subtly. 

The other tall, thin man chuckled and scolded, “Are you losing it again?” 

The shorter, chubbyman licked his lips. Nighttall fueled dark desires, and being alone with a beautiful woman was too tempting
