Reborn Wife

Chapter 42 

Instant silence filled the atmosphere.

The employees on the first floor of the Imperial View Building were dumbfounded.

Dozens of gazes landed on Olivia's hand that was still hanging on to Bruce's suit.

They were not expecting their boss to be close to girls.

And he was a neat freak; he did not like other people touching him.

The next thing this bold girl was going to face was probably Bruce's rage, and the embarrassment of being thrown out by the security guards in public! A trace of sympathy flashed through everyone's eyes.

In the next second, Bruce, who normally did not laugh, did not even get angry.

Instead, he gently grabbed the girl's hand and took her out of the company with large strides.

That moment, the entire Imperial View Building exploded with excitement.

The big question was: Did love finally get to the cold and domineering Mr.Bruce Tucker? In the car, Olivia looked at Bruce's stony expression and felt her heart beat faster.

She had just said that there would be landslides in the Maple Forest Mountain area, which was very serious.

Her words were utterly direct and did not have the slightest intention of joking.

When Bruce asked how she knew this, she only said, "I had a dream.Everything in my dreams come true, so..."

He would probably scold her for that, but it was the only reasonable excuse.

If she said that she had died once, she would probably not be in the vehicle right now, but would be locked up in a psychiatric hospital.

Bruce glanced at her.

Seeing that the girl was nervous but serious, he knitted his brows and called Galen without saying another word.

His action represented trust, and Olivia heaved a sigh of relief.

However...

No one answered the phone.

"He went alone and left very early’ Bruce said.

"If what you said is true, then I'm afraid it's too late." He patted Olivia's shoulder.

"Fasten your seat belt."

She was still in a daze, but immediately came to her senses.She fastened her seat belt.

The car sped along.

Maple Forest Mountain belonged to the boundary outside of LC City.

It was a long distance away, and was scenic, with beautiful ridges and rivers.

Therefore, it had been planned out long ago to be developed into a vacation Spot.

The project was originally taken by the Tucker Clan, but it was later transferred to the Burkes.

Olivia still remembered that because of Galen's death in her previous life.

There were even rumors that Bruce had indirectly killed Galen; he had suffered a lot of infamy back then.

They had such a good relationship; if something were to happen to Galen, Bruce would definitely be sad over it.

Olivia turned and quietly glanced at Bruce.

The man was completely focused on driving, his cold and handsome face showing no signs of worry.

However, the tense aura and the increasing speed of the car were enough to explain everything.

"Bruce, don't worry too much,’ she whispered.

In her previous life, things had already happened, and there was no possibility of any change.

But in this life, she could only hope.

At the same time, on the only road to Maple Forest Mountain, Galen was surprised halfway through the drive.

He was driving a sports car today; it was a smooth and handsome ride.

However, on this rough mountain road, it was simply bumpy.

Seeing that the chassis was stuck in a crater on the road, Galen got out of the car and rubbed his eyebrows, his head hurting.

He wanted to call someone to pick him up, but he realized that ever since he had entered the forest, his cell phone had completely lost its signal...

It was the rainy season, and the rains came without any warning.

He could only get back into the car and hide from the cold.

After ten minutes, a passenger minibus arrived; the words written on it were for Maple Forest Mountain.

‘What could he do?’ He stopped the passenger minibus and got on.

"Ten dollars per person,’ the driver shouted.

"Get in the car and pay first" Galen took out his wallet.

Without any change, he casually stuffed a hundred dollar bill.

His noble posture and expensive attire made him look like a master from a wealthy family, especially with the sports car parked by the roadside.

It was probably worth a lot of money...

The men sitting in the car exchanged glances and saw greed in each other's eyes.

It looked like they got lucky today.

Ashley Williams also had a bad day.

A few days ago, she was kidnapped by the kidnappers.

Fortunately, she was able to escape because she met Olivia.

After that, she returned to the school and questioned her classmate why he did not say anything when he knew that she had disappeared for two days.

The boy said that she deserved it...

The response was truly chilling.

Ashley was so angry she smashed her fist against her classmate's nose; he bled profusely.

And then she was expelled.

She did not dare tell her family about this, so she still pretended to go to school and leave the house every day.

After that, she would wander around randomly.

The reason why she got on this bus was because she thought that the time would pass by almost as fast as school would end.

Why was she so miserable? The more Ashley thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Her eyes turned red, and she heard a gentle voice beside her.

"Can I sit here?"

"You sit wherever you want, '' she replied, sobbing.When she looked up, she was stunned.

‘Are all the men in the forest so handsome?’ she wondered.

Galen sat down.

The experience of taking a minibus for the first time in his life was not too sour.

In the chilly air, there were people coughing and spitting from time to time.

Someone in the back row took off his shoes and the stench floated in the narrow space.

Galen's face turned green.

After persisting for three stops, he could not bear any longer and decided to get off the car.

As soon as he arrived at the car door, five or six men surrounded him and said with a fake smile, "You want to get off the car? Sure, just leave all the money on you and we'll let you leave.” His wallet was filled with money.

‘Am I really that stupid?’ he thought.

He smiled gently, but his voice carried the arrogance that a master of the Burke Clan should have.

"Move aside and I won't have to beat you up” he warned.

"If you don't, then you're welcome to try and attack me." Ashley blinked.

His arrogance was a little attractive.

After thinking for a while, she immediately took a bottle of pepper spray from her school bag.

Since these people were trying to rob him, the others in the car would definitely not be able to escape —including her.

A few robbers laughed coldly and rushed towards Galen.

He had been following Bruce as his sandbag training partner all year round.

'How could he not defeat these people?’ In the blink of an eye, all the men who had just been filled with ferocity fell to the ground and howled.

Galen kicked them, and the few of them were quite frightened as they crawled out of the car.

At that moment, the driver of the car suddenly stopped abruptly! The people in the car were caught off guard and fell forward because of the impact.

Ashley and Galen were the two who reacted the fastest.

They immediately grabbed onto the armrest, preventing their fall.

"What happened?"

Someone's face was bloodied from the collision and immediately shouted, "Do you know how to drive?"

The driver sighed.

"The landslide ahead is blocking the road.I can't get past it!"

Raising his head, Galen saw a few stones falling not far from the bus, blocking the road ahead with a large amount of silt.

Seeing this, Ashley subconsciously looked at the mountain on the left.

Suddenly, her expression changed.

"Run!" she yelled. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
