The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1436

"Oh no!"

Both Teagen's and Tristan's expressions suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?"

Priscilla was confused, and then she heard Teagan say, "The people outside blew up the house. We didn't think of this when we dug the passage, so once the house is blown up, we would not be able to go through the passage. Urgh! This means that we're trapped here!"

They were trapped, and there was nothing to eat. Furthermore, Tristan was even injured. If they couldn't get out, they would die of hunger or thirst or even by the cold. Moreover, Priscilla knew that even if they had gotten out, there would be many people outside waiting to get them.

What should they do now?

Priscilla became anxious when she looked at Tristan's increasingly pale face.

"I will go out! I don't believe that Laborn would kill me in front of everyone! As long as he doesn't kill me, I will have ways to save you."

Priscilla was about to get up when Tristan stopped her.

"Nah, it's useless. If he cared about you, I wouldn't have this injury in the first place."

After all, he would not allow Priscilla to go out and sacrifice herself no matter what.

On the other hand, Priscilla looked at Tristan and felt very upset.

"Your wound needs to be treated, so you can't stay here!"

This meant that she was willing to do anything to get them out of here.

Meanwhile, Tristan was delighted when he heard what Priscilla had said.

"Let's wait for a while. It's all right. You can treat my wound, and I'll teach you how."

Tristan then taught Priscilla how to attend to his wounds.

Priscilla did as he instructed.

Meanwhile, they could hear sounds coming from above them clearly as the tunnel had collapsed. Hence, they didn't dare speak loudly as they were afraid of attracting the soldiers' attention.

Footsteps were heard one after another, and it sounded like there were quite a few people above them.

Priscilla believed that the soldiers had reported to Laborn that she was here as well. However, Laborn still sent men and had even blown up the place without mercy. Alas! He didn't even consider her safety. Well, even though Priscilla knew that Laborn didn't care about her, she still felt heartbroken.

This meant that she had no home here and no family.

Only people who did not get along with their parents would understand what she was going through. Although she looked like she had everything, her heart was empty.

Then, Tristan brought Priscilla closer to him and whispered, "Let me lean against you for a while."

Priscilla knew that he had done it on purpose. After all, he had sensed her sadness, so he was trying to distract her.

Besides Nathaniel, Tristan was the only one who was unconditionally good to her.

In fact, she was quite lucky.

At this thought, Priscilla put her arms around his shoulders with a faint smile and whispered, "Honey."

She said it so sincerely that Tristan was stunned. He paused for a moment and then smiled slightly before whispering, "Say it again."

"Honey."

Although both of them were married, Priscilla had felt that their marriage was too sudden, so she hadn't been able to get used to this role. After all, she found it hard to think of Tristan as her husband. However, she finally accepted this role.

After hearing this pet name, Tristan laughed foolishly and thought in his heart, "Call me honey, and I will give you everything you want! Prissy, from now on, don't ever think about leaving me."

He stretched out his arms and embraced Priscilla tightly while saying this. When he felt the warmth and fragrance from her body, he suddenly felt that it did not matter even if he was trapped here. It was fine as long as she was around.

On the other hand, Teagan felt that he was the third wheel. If he had known that this would happen, he would not have come back. If he was outside then, he could at least find a way to save Tristan. But now, he was in an awkward situation.

He tried his best to reduce his presence but still felt a little awkward.

Priscilla, on the other hand, didn't think about it too much. After all, it was now time for her to think about how they could leave.

Right now, Tristan's face was getting paler. Although he insisted that he was okay, how could he be fine after losing so much blood? Besides, the bullet was still in his body. What if he got a fever later?

At this thought, Priscilla frowned, but she heard Tristan whisper, "Priscilla, tell me a story."

"Huh? You want me to tell you a story?"

Priscilla was somewhat astonished to hear his request.

"Don't you know how to do that?"

Tristan raised his head and smiled at her while asking the question. At that moment, Priscilla saw how brightly his eyes twinkled, and they shone like stars.

"No. I only know some nursery rhymes."

"That's fine. I just want to hear you speak."

Tristan lowered his head and moved closer to Priscilla before whispering, "Maybe you can think about it and practice on me first. Then, when we have children in the future, you can tell these stories to them too."

Priscilla stiffened when she heard him.

So Tristan didn't know that she couldn't bear children?

When Priscilla thought about her body, she felt upset.

Back then, she didn't regret anything, even though she had given up so much to save Nathaniel. But at this moment, she felt apologetic towards Tristan.

Suddenly, he remembered how well Tristan had treated her and his feelings for her.

They had been together for more than two months. During the period, they were with each other during the day, and they had slept together every night. However, she never cared about it because she was sure she couldn't get pregnant. Furthermore, she never thought about spending the rest of her life with Tristan.

Well, she admitted that she had played with Tristan's feelings in the beginning. After all, Nathaniel had left her without saying goodbye, and she was miserable. She had no place to vent her anger, so when a man like Tristan who liked her appeared, she indulged in pleasure with him.

She thought that she could use another man to forget about Nathaniel, even for a short time.

In those two months, she didn't think of Nathaniel, and she was happy with Tristan. She could always get her way with him, and he spoiled her. He would have granted all her wishes if he could, but he never managed to win over her heart.
