The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 264

Nicole sighed in relief when she noticed the fake native.

The torrential rain plunged the night into a cold abyss.

The leaves around them rustled loudly as they were drenched in the downpour. Accompanied by the crashing waves from the sea and the wind howling, it was almost phantasmal and despairing.

Nicole was soaked to the bone and shivered in the cold. The chill seemed to drill all the way down to her marrow.

She had just stopped to gasp for breath when she suddenly heard the flurry of heavy footsteps catching up behind them. It was extraordinarily clear in the darkness.

Nicole and the fake native exchanged a glance. They then continued to run without hesitation.

The cold rain pelted her face like a sharp knife...

After just a few minutes, she felt like her heart was about to jump out, and her legs stopped listening to her brain. The surrounding environment was dark, and in addition to the rain, it was impossible to see anything at all.

The ground was littered with branches and leaves, but they could only continue to escape, even if it meant

crawling away!

The indigenous people chased after them relentlessly and even threw branches at them. Nicole's back was hit several times, but she merely gritted her teeth and got up to run again.

Her hands had countless wounds after being cut by twigs and thorns, but she was numb to the pain.

The fake native in front of her moved quickly with agility. His body was nimble, and he had strong athletic qualities.

Nicole did not dare to lag behind and ran for her life.

The sounds behind them were getting closer. If the indigenous people caught up to them, that would mean certain death!

Suddenly, her foot hooked onto a tree trunk, hurling her to the ground. She could not help but let out a scream when a jolt of pain shot up her elbow.

The fake native turned around. Nicole gritted her teeth and pulled herself up.

"I'm fine! Run!"

All of a sudden, after she stepped over the tree trunk, her foot lost its ground and she found herself freefalling!

Her hands desperately reached out for anything she could grab. She managed to wrap a flexible vine around her arm.

The full weight of her body hung from that vine, and her hands were already bleeding from the thorns lining the vine.

Nicole could feel her body trembling. She was well aware that her body was at its limit.

The sounds of the indigenous people behind her were like a death knell for her, sinister and frightening.

The feeling of hopelessness had never been so strong before, and the chill swept through every pore of her body...

However, the next moment, the fake native that should have run away suddenly appeared in front of her.

He reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her out o f the pitfail.
