My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1394

I took out my mobile phone from my pocket and turned on the flashlight. I was stunned when I flashed the light and looked inside. Just like Abby said, the ten-square-meter house was full of cow dung and hay. In some places, I couldn't tell whether the puddles on the ground were cow urine or rain that leaked in from the roof.

The girl who was locked up was thinly dressed. She only wore a short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of black sweatpants. Her clothes were very worn out. Her pants which had been mended several times was getting a little too short. Fortunately, there was a big brown bull in the bullpen. The girl was huddled against the bull. Upon seeing us, she immediately curled up, raised her hand to block the light from my phone, and said with fear, "Mom, don't force me. I will die soon!"

Abby quickly said, "Susan, she is not mommy. She is a very beautiful auntie who came to visit our house. She is taking me to the city tomorrow!"

Upon hearing what Abby said, the girl squinted at us. Her delicate face was a little pale and her lips were dry. It seemed that she had not eaten for days. She opened her mouth and looked at me without the fear I had expected. She asked very calmly, "Are you the one who wants to take my sister to the city and give her organs to your daughter?"

I couldn't accept her words, but after thinking about it, I realized what she said was true. I pursed my lips, nodded and said, "Yes, but don't worry, I will take good care of her."

She suddenly sneered, "Isn't that what you should do? The kids don't understand, but I'm not stupid. Abby is only five years old, but you want to take her organs out of her body. She may die in the process. You would have spent tens of thousands of dollars to trade her life in exchange for your daughter's. Of course you should take good care of her."

This girl's words were very sharp. I pursed my lips, but I didn't give her a response. It wasn't that I didn't dare to answer, but I just felt that there was no need to. If I didn't understand why Bobbie wanted to bring me here in the first place, then I roughly knew the reason now.

After pausing for a moment, that girl looked at me and continued, "I know Abby can save your daughter's life, so let's exchange something. I want you to promise me one thing."

I frowned slightly and replied, "I'll consider it if it's something reasonable, but if it' s something unreasonable, then I'm sorry but I can't help."

"Take me along as well. I can't stay here and wait for death. My mother wants me to marry a fool. I don't want this kind of life. I don't need you to do anything. You just need to take me to the city. Don't worry, after we get to the city, I will try to find my own living and I won't bother you. I just want to leave this place. I don't want my life to end here."

The girl's eyes were full of yearning and anticipation for the future. She looked at me with eager eyes. If I were younger, I might feel distressed and immediately said yes.

However, I still hesitated. After all, I was not familiar with everything here, including this girl. I didn't know what her parents were going to do to her. Why were they locking her here? I was an outsider. If I intervened without figuring out the situation first, it would only get myself involved in a conflict.
