Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1597

Alex glanced over at the great mountains on both sides and suddenly commanded Garrett, "Stop!"

The sky had just begun to turn bright. Throughout the night they drove, Jane had been asleep, sinking deeper and deeper into her dreams. At first, she leaned into Alex's arms. After that, Alex went ahead and lowered the seat so that she could sleep comfortably. Even the driver in the front seat could not help but feel his heart ache as he glanced over to Jane a couple of times.

'How long has it been since Mrs. Poole had a good night's sleep? As expected of the Master, he really has i t all planned out. We can’t allow her to stray out there any longer. Any longer, she would die out there. Even i f this is all plotted by the Master, at least he is doing it for her own good,' he thought.

At the time, the car had stopped inside the mountains, but Jane had not woken up, nor did Alex wake her. He leaned on his side with half of his body bent, and he let her sleep on his arm as he watched her.

It was not until the sky was completely bright when Jane finally woke up. She felt as though she had slept for a really, really long time. She even had a dream. A sweet dream. She dreamed that she was ten years younger than she was then, and that she was with Alex when she was around twenty-four or so. The

Alex she saw in her dream was young, as well, a year younger than she was. He wore an olive-green military uniform and looked incredibly handsome in i t. In Jane's dream, the Jane in her twenties was getting married to Alex, who was also in his twenties. The two were sweet together, and it was great. The dream was long and wonderful, and after that, she even dreamed of being pregnant. She saw their child distinctly. It was a beautiful dream, so much so that she was reluctant to wake up, until the light that grew stronger from the outside pulled her out from her dream forcefully.

When she first woke up, she was not sure as to where she was. She closed her eyes for a moment and thought to herself, "Where am I? Is this the maid's room at Lenny's home? The small room in Huron's? Where is this?"

Jane remained dazed for a few minutes before finally coming to realize that she was in Alex's car. She turned around to find Alex holding his arm and massaging it.

"Alex, what's wrong with your arm?" she asked.

"You were using it as a pillow. It's numb now."

She paused for a moment before asking, "Wh--why did the car stop? Where are we?" 1

Alex did not respond. He simply opened the car door t o get out before extending his arms to carry Jane out o f the car as well.

Jane looked around at the unfamiliar environment around her, and looked at Alex in confusion. "Where are we, Alex? Where did you bring me here? Did something happen?"

Almost immediately, her mind went toward all bad possibilities. Could it be that her mother’s condition was too severe for her to make it to Kidon City, and ended up dying halfway there? No! Tears began to gather in her eyes as she bit her lips and asked, "Alex, did...did something happen to my mom?"

Alex let out a quiet sigh. "That mountain is where Noah Hill died."
