Chapter 97
*Miss
Thompson, do you know how to navigate
avigate around here?” Jaydon did not move and looked around him.
“Of course not, but don’t worry, Mr. Lewis. 111 make marks on the trees or on the ground along the way. When we come out, we can follow the marks. We definitely won’t get lost,” Alita replied.
Evelyn was in a good mood. She held Jaydon’s hand and said, “Jaydon, let’s go in. Miss Thompson will take care of everything for
Us
Jaydon looked at Alita and smiled casually. “Since Miss Thompson is so confident, we’ll trust you.”
*Thank you for your trust in me, Mr. Lewis.” Alita did I not try to think what he n meant with his words. After saying that, she looked at Karen, Crystal and Sabina. “I’ll walk in front, you guys walk in the back of the group. You have to protect Mr. Lewis and Miss Jenner. If anything happens, don’t panic, understand?”
“Understood!” Karen and the others nodded.
The group led by Alita went deeper into the forest.
Alita carried a huge bag and held a stick in her hand. When she walked up to big bushes, she would carefully beat around them with a stick to see if there were any snakes or animals. After confirming that there was no danger, she would let Jaydon and Evelyn pass, The safety of the clients was her top priority.
As they walked, she would mark the trees with a yellow marker from time to time. As a backup plan, she also asked Karen and the
others to insert silver bars on the road to avoid losing tracks in the woods.
Alita’s expression had been very serious ever since she walked into the forest. However, Evelyn looked as if she was on a hiking. She was extremely excited and was not aware of any dangers.
Seeing that Alita was carrying a huge bag while making marks and leading the group, Jaydon felt bad for her. He knew if there were any dangers, Alita would most likely face them first.
After hesitating for a while, he left Evelyn behind and walked forward. “Miss Thompson, let me carry this bag. It looks quite heavy.”
“No need. Take good care of Evelyn. I can handle it, Alita replied immediately. She did not even turn her head as she talked. She still
tried to be very cautious with her surroundings.
Jaydon pulled her back and called out in a deep voice, “Miss Thompson.”
“What?” Alita stopped in her tracks and looked at him in confusion.
As soon as they stopped, the people behind were forced to stop.
“Miss Thompson, I’m not used to being protected by a woman, let alone walking behind her.” Jaydon looked at her arrogantly with his profound green eyes,
“Then what do you want?” Alita was waiting for him to continue.
“I’ll walk in front, you should follow behind me. Give me the stick.” Jaydon snatched it from her hand and pushed her behind him. He wanted to be the one to protect Alita.

When Evelyn saw Jaydon’s actions, not only did she not doubt it, she even said in admiration, “Jaydon, you’re so manly. Awesome!”
Alita fell grossed out by what Evelyn said
“Mr. Lewis, are you sure you want to lead the group? I won’t care if anything happens.” She didn’t want to stop him, but she had to
show her attitude.
Jaydon felt sad to find out that Alita despised his kindness. He turned around and said d with a smile, “If I died, I’ll drag you with me and deal with you when we get to heaven.”
As soon as he said that, Alita glared at him,
The girls at the back all burst out laughing.
Karen said, “Mr. Lewis is so humorous,”
Crystal said, “He’s really a gentleman.”
Evelyn was proud to hear others praise her man.
Apart from feeling helpless, Alita was speechless. From her perspective, Jaydon was a man who was sinister, controlling, and vengeful.
She was the only one in the world who knew this man’s true colors.
On second thought, she felt she was at an advantage to have Jaydon lead the group. She said, “Since Mr. Lewis insists, alright. You walk in front. Remember to be careful.” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“You are very considerate.” Jaydon smiled happily. His smile made the forest even brighter.
Alita thought, “Cut the crap. If we keep wasting time, we will have to spend the night here.”
Jaydon started leading the way. Alita made marks behind him while looking after Evelyn.
Just like that, they went deeper and deeper into the forest. Their surroundings became quieter and the scenery became more beautiful. Even Alita let down her guard. She was attracted by the beauty here. When the sunlight shone through the green leaves. and illuminated the forest in a warm and hazy manner, every blade of grass and tree seemed to have spiritual energy. The fluttering wings of butterflies circled among a group of flowers, making one feel like they were in a fairytale world.
“Miss Jenner, what do you think of this place? Why don’t we choose this as your venue?” Alita looked at the time and said to the girl beside her. She was afraid that they wouldn’t be able to leave the forest before it got dark if they kept going
As Evelyn looked, she thought, ‘It’s indeed beautiful here, but I think it’ll be even more beautiful inside. Let’s go deeper. She developed a fantasy about the view deeper inside the forest.
Alita said helplessly, “Miss Jenner, we are already very deep into the woods. We already have everything you want. I think this is a very nice place. If we pick somewhere further, the guests on your wedding day will have to walk very far. That will be very
Inconvenient.”
As she spoke, she looked at Jaydon in front of her, hoping that he would be more rational and say a few words to back her up.
Unfortunately, Jaydon did not even turn his head. Alita did not know what he was thinking. She thought that Evelyn was spoiled by Jaydon.

‘I don’t care. I am the one in charge of planning my wedding. I want to keep going.” Evelyn pointed ahead and pouted unhappily.
insisting on continue walking.
Alita had never met such a ridiculous client. She bit her lip and said, “Alright then, but we can only walk for another 20 minutes at most before we head back. When it gets dark, wild beasts might come out. Perhaps there’s a witch living in the depths of the forest who craves people’s hearts.”
“That’s so scary.” Evelyn was frightened after hearing that.
Karen and the others snickered behind her back. They didn’t know Evelyn was
so easy to be deceived.
Jaydon was also secretly laughing in front. He was amused by how Alita handled Evelyn.
“That’s why we
e have to go out before it gets dark. During the day, we have the Sun God guarding us. At night, it will be the Dark God Asura’s world. At that time, this place will be pitch–black. All kinds of demons will come out. The six of us are not even enough to fill their stomachs.” Alita continued to scare Evelyn after she realized that Evelyn was convinced by her story.
Evelyn had goosebumps all over her body. “I don’t want to be eaten. I want to be out before it gets dark”
“Good girl, that’s right. It’ll be dark in the forest around 4:30 pm. It’s 2:30 pm now.
We still h
I have two hours, so we have to hurry, oka
“Okay!” Evelyn became obedient to Alita after she was frightened by her.
After walking for another 15 minutes, the group discovered a large open space covered with flowers. There was a small waterfall at the side. The water flowed down to the stream below. The water was so clear that one could see the bottom. The willow–like green trees that were more than 30 feet tall were naturally bent into a semicircle at a high place, forming a green passageway. This was an effect that could not be created even if one spent a lot of money. Nature was really the best craftsman
The group of people stood there, stunned and intoxicated by the beautiful scenery. Even Jaydon could not take his eyes off it.
“Oh my God, this is it. It’s perfect.” Evelyn kept repeating the words as she ran forward, spinning among the flowers.
Crystal said, “It’s really beautiful.”
Sabina said, “I’ve never seen such a beautiful place,”
Karen added, “I want to get married here too.”
The girls all loved this space. This was the dream of every girl. They also ran over and enjoyed the happiness this place brought
them.
Alita also lik
liked this place. However, she was no longer a little girl. Even though she was attracted to it, she remained calm,
Jaydon quietly stood behind her. “Why aren’t you like them? You can show your happiness.”
“Who said I’m not happy? But happiness doesn’t have to be expressed through actions, Alita replied softly without turning back.
“You’re still so determined and calm. Miss Thor
Thompson, are you even a woman?” Jaydon smiled. He often felt that Alita was n
than a man.
Alita turned her head with a smile and said gently, “As long as Mr. Lewis is a man, I am a woman.”
Jaydon nodded with a smile. “That’s true! Only a man and a woman can complete each other!”
