Amelia Smith leaned against the car window, her eyes shut and her face deathly pale. She tried hard to appear calm, not wanting to lose face, but her condition betrayed her.
She was terrified, fearing death and fearing that she would never see William Lane again.
Upon seeing her like this, Bella Reid snorted in derision, calling her "useless".
Amelia carried on as if she didn't hear her, not reacting at all.
A few minutes later, there were fewer vehicles on the road.
Amelia sat up and looked outside, her eyelashes drooping as she glanced at Bella in the driver's seat.
But just as she was about to shift, Bella suddenly cursed under her breath, speeding up the car.
Amelia's body jolted against her seat, but she quickly composed herself and turned to look back.
There were vehicles following them.
Their speed was also high, closing the distance only to have it widened again.
And it wasn't just one car.
