Chapter 157 Separate With Courtney

Courtney stared at her hands in shock and didn't respond for a long time.

"What, what did you say?" Courtney raised her head automatically and looked into Lilian's eyes, almost thinking she misunderstood Lilian's gestures.

Lilian repeated it, "Let's leave here and never go back."

"Are you serious?"

Courtney had never convinced her before, and every time Lilian refused to leave. After a long time, Courtney gave up the idea.

Now that Lilian brought it up, Courtney became nervous.

Lilian nodded solemnly. She had already made it clear that Courtney and her certainly couldn't go back.

She didn't know how to face Francis, nor could she persuade him to let Courtney go.

The last time she didn't go out, he still punished Courtney cruelly, and now Courtney took her out and disappeared for a few days.

Lilian could hardly imagine the result.

Courtney kept silent for a long time before she grabbed Lilian's hand and stared at her.

It seemed that she was making up her mind.

After a while, Courtney said, "OK! Let's go."

Courtney grabbed her short hair, took away the odds and ends on her body, got out of the car, and went straight to the driver's seat.

She paused when she saw that the key of the car had not been pulled out. A thought hit her, "Was this car specially prepared for her?"

Lilian sat in the passenger seat. Seeing Courtney staring at the key, she was puzzled.

Courtney looked up at her. "Lily, I feel something wrong."

Lilian looked at her puzzled, waiting for Courtney's explanation.

Courtney pointed to the key. "Look at the car key. What kidnapper would be so kind as to tie us up and let us go unscathed?"

"And is he to let us go back or to let me leave with the car?"

Lilian was also lost in thought.

It has nothing to do with this car. Their end must be miserable if they left or came back. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Lilian hesitated and gestured, "Courtney, what do you think?"

Courtney frowned and sighed, "I don't know."

Last time, Francis almost ruined her family because she wanted to take Lilian away. Now, she risked taking Lilian out.

Seemingly, she had no reason to go back.

If she didn't go back, Francis, for Lester's sake, probably wouldn't vent his anger upon the Sachs family.

If she went back, the Sachs family might be implicated.

Courtney had a firm eye at this thought, and she said, "Let's go."

Lilian gestured, "Let me get off when you take me to the railway station, and we'll go separately."

"Why?" Courtney didn't understand.

Lilian smiled and gestured, "Let's meet somewhere. In this way, we won't both be caught back."

"But no matter who is caught, the other one wouldn't escape alone." Courtney gave her a suspicious look.

Lilian gestured, "I'll be fine even if Francis catches me, but it's worrying that he catches you."

Courtney frowned and thought it made sense.

Lilian kept smiling and looked at her sincerely.

Courtney hesitated and agreed, "All right."

She must leave because she could not go back. From the moment she decided to save Lilian, Courtney knew that Linkland City had no place for her.

Lilian breathed a sigh of relief. Her hand hidden in the sleeve was covered with sweat.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at Courtney's side face with a complicated look. The wind blew in from the open car window, which messed up Courtney's short hair.

Lilian's eyes were a bit sad for parting.

Courtney was still thinking about the meeting place and didn't notice Lilian's eyes.
