Chapter 477 Taken Away by Simon
Beep… Beep…
The call went through, and a man’s languid voice came through on the other end as if his
peaceful dream had been interrupted.
“Hello, who is this?”
“Simon! It’s me. Can you… please save me? Elias has locked me up. I escaped just now,
but they’ve already found out and are trying to catch me. I don’t know where to go either
after leaving the estate…”
“Amanda? What happened? Why did Elias lock you up? Are you okay? Wait for me. I’ll com
right away.”
The next split second, a woman’s voice abruptly came from the other end of the phone.
“Who the hell are you? Are you crazy, calling a man to save you in the middle of the
night? What’s wrong with you? Are you about to die?”
A woman’s voice? Simon already has a woman in his life?!
It was inappropriate for her to disturb his life, especially now.
“I’m sorry for bothering you,” said Amanda and hung up the phone directly. After a deep
sigh, she handed the phone back to the housemaid. “Here you go.”
Just then, sounds of the bodyguards searching for her came from behind. It seemed that
the had started searching the entire estate.
At that, Amanda quietly pleaded with the housemaid. “Please don’t tell them that you’ve
seer me, okay?”
“Okay, Mrs. Winters. Please take care.”
“Okay.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, in the pouring rain, Amanda ran to another part of the estate. She couldn’t let herself
be caught again. She had to get out.
Amanda searched the vast estate and finally found a small dog hole at the base of a wall.
should’ve been the exit for the dog Elas used to keep.
He rarely came home when she and Eltas married but deliberately kept a dog in the house
When he returned, he would rather spend time with the dog than spare her a glance. It
was a cruel aoay that, in Hias eyes, she was worth less than a dog
Less than half a year later, the dog died due to an accident. Since then, Elias never kept a
p again and would never come home, for he had even fewer reasons to do so. Now, this
dog hole had unexpectedly become her lifeline.
Amanda didn’t want to crawl through the dog hole, but she didn’t have a better option.
Rainwater trickled down her cheeks, and she couldn’t distinguish whether it was her tears
the rain. She eventually made her way to the dog hole, slowly crouched down, and then
crawled out through it.
After emerging from the dog hole, Amanda felt even more lost.
Outside the hole was a dense forest with no clear direction. How was she supposed to find
her way?!
But going back was not an option; she would surely be locked in the basement again.
It was a rainy night, pitch black, with only the estate’s lights illuminating the nearby area.
Beyond that, everything was shrouded in darkness.
Amanda gazed into the distance, gritted her teeth, and headed in one direction. She was
confident that she would eventually find her way out.
Braving the heavy rain, she navigated through the woods, her clothes soaked and her
body trembling from the cold. She knew she was likely to catch a severe cold, but at this
point, she couldn’t afford to think about it. Her priority was to make it out.
In the hospital, Elias was about to rest his eyes for a moment when his phone suddenly
rang.
“Speak!” he answered the call in annoyance.
“We have a problem, sir.” The anxious voice of a bodyguard came from the other end of
the phone. “Miss Bailey has escaped. We’ve searched the entire estate and can’t find her
anywhere. We finally spotted her on the surveillance cameras heading toward a wall, and
then she disappeared. There’s a dog hole there; she might have escaped the estate!”
“What!” Elias sat up abruptly, roaring in anger. “You useless bunch! You can’t even keep
an eye on one woman! Go and find her immediately!”
“Mr. Winters, Miss Momsey insisted I open the door. As soon as she went in, Miss Bailey
ran out and locked her inside…”
Before the bodyguard could finish his sentence, Elias shouted. Just go find her’ Don’t
bother coming back if you can’t find her!”
“Yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Elias’ anger surged to new heights.
How dare that d*mn woman run away?! Where does she want to run to? And that Rosie
Momsey is nothing but a troublemaker! Who said she could open the door to the
basement?!
Elias had the impulse to rush back to the estate immediately, but a sudden bout of
dizziness forced him to lie back down in bed.
Amanda had no idea how long she had been walking in the vast forest. She couldn’t see
the lights of the estate anymore and was beginning to doubt if she would ever find a way
out. Sh even started hallucinating, trembling, and her legs weakening.
When would she finally get out of this forest…
She stumbled and fell to the ground, her body covered in a mixture of mud and rainwater.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe felt like she might die there, but then she saw a road just a few steps away.
Summoning the last shreds of her consciousness, Amanda struggled to her feet and
staggered toward the edge of the forest. She finally reached the road but hadn’t caught
her breath when the headlights of an approaching car blinded her. Terrified, she fell back
to the ground, and the sound of screeching brakes echoed in the rain.
The car came to a stop in front of her, and she shielded her eyes to see the vehicle.
A car? I’m saved!
Amanda was about to stand up to ask for a ride when she realized the man getting out of
the car was Simon, who rushed to her after taking a moment to recognize her. “Amanda!
What happened to you? Get in the car.”
He helped her into the car, finally sheltering her from the heavy rain. Amanda sat in the
backseat, gazing at the man in the driver’s seat, finally recognizing him as Simon.
Amanda was running a high fever by this point, and her consciousness was becoming
unclear.
“Simon… Is that you?”
“It’s me, Amanda. Don’t be afraid. I’ll take you to the hospital. You might have a high
fever. How long were you running in the rain? Why are you so wet? And why did Elias lock
you up? What happened.
Simon asked a barrage of questions as he drove, but when he turned around to look at
Amanda, he realized that she had fallen asleep. She must have fallen into a fever-induced
coma. He needed to get her to the hospital quickly. However, suddenly, a group of
bodyguards appeared in front of their car. They seemed to have come from the mansion
and were probably trying to take Amanda back.
“Hand our Madam back!” one of them shouted angrily, pounding on the car window.
Simon paid them no attention. He stepped on the gas pedal, and the car sped away. The
bodyguards automatically moved to the sides, fearing they might be hit by the speeding
vehicle. They could only watch helplessly as Simon took away their Madam.
