My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 840

They were in the countryside.

There were street lights every hundred meters on both sides of the road.

She did not know if it was an illusion, but when the Mercedes-Benz stopped, the street lights seemed to dim a little.

Felicity shook her head and said, “It’s okay, I’ll wait!”

The man in glasses was polite and handsome, but Felicity did not find him attractive. If anything, she found him repulsive.

The young man said, “A car accident happened at the back, so very few cars are passing by now. If you’re going to the city, I can give you a free ride!”

He was not lying. He saw a truck driver with road rage, so Peter used Path techniques to crash the vehicle, killing everyone in it.

Felicity glanced at the road behind her. It was quiet, and there were no cars.

She did not want to waste time, so she decided to hitch a ride with the man in his Mercedes-Benz.

She was not afraid of encountering bad people unless they were powerful martial artists. However, she did not feel any inner energy fluctuations from the young man.

When he saw Felicity approaching, he helped open the passenger door.

Felicity glanced at the back seat. There were two old men and one Path taker.

The two old men had their eyes closed as they were resting, while the Path taker smiled at her.

The young man explained, “These three are going to the city too, so I picked them up along the way!”

Felicity sat in the passenger seat dubiously.

Suddenly, there was a loud sound from the back seat.

The entire car jolted.

When Felicity looked behind, she saw Peter with a hand on his head. He was smiling. “Sorry, I hit my head!”

The young man in the driver’s seat asked, “Miss, are you not from here?”

Felicity shook her head and said, “I’m from Jonford, but I just got back from overseas!”

The young man glanced at the bag on her back and said with a smile, “Your bag is quite unique. I didn’t think that people still use these bags these days. One might think that you’re a hero roaming the world, punishing criminals!”

Felicity smiled. “You’re not wrong, so I’d advise you not to do anything bad!”

Felicity grabbed the young man’s wrist, but before she could touch him, a strong hand grabbed her wrist.

It was the old Path taker.

Peter chuckled and said, “You’re a young lady. You shouldn’t be using physical violence!”

Felicity’s eyes were cold. She used her true energy to break free from the Path taker’s hand, but she realized that her true energy was immobilized.

The old Path taker was a martial artist, and he had at least the strength of a grandmaster.

The car jolted again.

Peter smiled and asked, “Miss… what exactly do you have in that bag?”

The ghoul overlord had been quiet after returning from Quiet Winds Church, but he had been restless for the past five minutes.

When they saw the woman standing on the roadside, the closer they got, the more restless the ghoul overlord became.

Peter reckoned that the woman was carrying a great treasure.
