A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 164

"Actually, I don't know what I'm going to do. I just ... received an order telling me to stall you guys."

... When Sunny hears this, she feels a strong desire to catch the guy who has given the order and beat him up.

"Then can't you let us go?"

Speaking of this, the man shakes his head resolutely. "No. Other than this, anything else will be okay."

...

"Can you go to the supermarket and buy us something to eat? I'm hungry."

The driver was shocked.

However, maybe he is too confident in his skills. He takes a few ropes and ties them up before getting out of the car.

When that person gets out of the car, the three of them are silent for a long time before Sunny says, "Darling, can you help me untie this rope?"

...

However, after waiting for a long time, she doesn't get any reply. Sunny turns her head with confusion, only to see Kevin's mouth open in a daze.

"Are you all right?"

Hearing Sunny's voice again, Kevin regains his senses and closes his mouth, "I'm fine."

This is the first time Sunny has called him darling. Kevin doesn’t want to admit that he’s so happy that he’s dumbfounded!

This is the first time...

"Darling, what were you saying just now?"

"I say if you could help me untie the rope ... Let's flee."

Compared to Sunny who desires to escape, Kevin leans leisurely against the car door. "Have you told Troy?"

Sunny nods.

"Then we needn't escape. We'll just wait for them to come."

Sunny narrows her eyes, "Is this okay?"

Kevin smiles, "Do you think the person behind him wants to see us escape, or see us frightened to death?"

...

"There doesn't seem to be any difference between the two, right?"

Kevin nods, "So, we shouldn’t act like panicked mice. The more he wants to see, the more we can't show him."

As he speaks, he looks at a camera in the car and curls his lips in contempt.

"Interesting. This person is quite smart."

When the person in front of the monitor sees Kevin's provocative look, she is quite angry. But her subordinates see that she is quite excited as if it is diamond cut diamond.

Thus, they are praying for that person in their hearts.

"You guys, stop watching. Go help him."

The woman raises her chin and reveals a smile at the corner of her charming eyes. Under the gaze of her subordinates, she lights a cigarette.

"It's so boring ... Why has that person gone for so long... Why hasn't Troy come yet..."

Sunny is unable to move because her hands are tied back, so she sits down on the ground.

"Troy?"

For some reason, Kevin's face darkens when he hears this name.

"What's the matter?"

Sunny raises her head in confusion, not understanding why his expression suddenly changes.

Kevin holds back the jealousy. "You ... why don't you tell me about your life in the past few years? We have much time now."

Hearing this, Sunny freezes for a moment, and then she smiles, "Fine. I'll tell you."

She clears her throat and says, "At that time, the plane exploded ... I thought I was going to die ... I tried my best to protect Macie who was in my belly."

She speaks with some difficulty, and Macie, who is at the side, hears her mother talking about her and moves over to Sunny.

"When I fell, I was thinking that it would be great if I could fall into the sea. I could still swim. Fortunately, I really fell into the sea and was pushed to the shore."

"At that time, Troy and the others were not far from me. When I recovered consciousness, I thought that this might be the blessing of the heavens."

Because Sunny's hands have been tied, she changes her posture somewhat uncomfortably.

"The locals saved us. At that time, we didn't know where we were. We heard them talking but couldn't understand their words."

"And then?"

Kevin looks at Sunny who is low-spirited and doesn't even dare to speak loudly, afraid of disturbing her dreams.

Sunny stares blankly at a corner and continues, "Then ... then Troy and the others recovered consciousness first. Because Troy knew medicine, he asked the locals if they knew English and borrowed some medicine from them."

"The locals were very xenophobic. Although they were full of curiosity about people like us whose skin color is different from theirs, they hadn't taken us in. So, at the beginning, we spent the night in a temporary tent by the sea."

Hearing this, Kevin can imagine the scene at that time. His heart is racing in pain.

"You ... do you hate me?" He hesitates for a moment, but he still asks her with uncertainty in his heart.

Because Sunny has not answered for a long time, his heart is in his mouth. He looks up at Sunny, as if he is forcing her to give an answer.

"I ... I don't hate you!" Sunny's tone carries her puzzle about this question.

"It was Bella who did all those things back then. Why would I hate you?"

She doesn't hate him. But for some reason, Kevin feels that his throat is a little dry. He even needs to cough before he could continue speaking.

"After all, it's also related to me."

Hearing this answer, Sunny smiles softly. "You're really ... cute. I've seen people who shift the blame onto others, but you are taking the blame onto yourself."

However, Kevin only looks at her and doesn't say any word.

"OK. Don't care about this. It's all over now."

Sunny says softly, "Aren't we all fine now?"

"Right." After saying that, she adds another word. She doesn't know if it is to convince herself or to convince Kevin.

The atmosphere in the carriage is somewhat sad and solemn now.

The kidnapper who went out to buy water comes back with a bag of food in his hand.

"Here, take it. This is yours."

He hands the paper bag to Sunny and says, "Take it."

Sunny is enraged, "You tied me up. How can I take it!"

...

Only then does the kidnapper realize that he had tied them up just in case before he left.

"It's really troublesome. That little girl, take it."

Macie obediently takes the bag, looks inside, and lets out a cry of surprise, "Wow. None of them are my favorite food."

The kidnapper is a little awkward.

Kevin glances into the bag and becomes frustrated. Because these are not what Macie likes but what Sunny likes.

... Sunny feels that she has been glared at by Kevin.

"What happened? Did he poison the food?"

Sunny is not enjoying being seen, so she quickly adjusts her sitting posture and blinks at Kevin.

"No."

For some reason, Kevin's voice sounds dull.

"What do you need to do to let us go?"

Hearing Sunny's question, the kidnapper who is focused on eating potato chips raises his eyebrows. "I won't let you go unless..."

When he says that, he suddenly realizes that he has almost spilled the beans, so he quickly chews a few potato chips to cover it up.

"Unless what?"

"Nothing, you guys ...." The kidnapper hesitates for a moment and unties the ropes on their bodies.

"Just eat something. I won't let you go so easily anyway." He has to wait for that woman to come.

... His action is clearly beyond their expectations, especially Kevin, who has a slightly frustrated face.

Sunny thinks that she has already told Troy. With their tacit understanding, Baron will definitely be able to find her.

Thus, she takes the bag of food that Macie does not like, looks at it for a while, and says in surprise, "It's all my favorite food!"

For some reason, after hearing this, Kevin becomes even more upset.

"Do you know me?"

Sunny is eating slowly as she sees the kidnapper peeking at their behavior through the rearview mirror and asks in curiosity.

Otherwise, how could he know that she likes to eat these?

The kidnapper is shocked by Sunny's question, and the potato chips are almost stuck in his throat, "I ... I don't..."

He doesn't know how to explain it, so he scratches his hair with his greasy hands. "I can't tell you now. I'm sorry."

... Sunny thinks that this guy in front of her really does not look like a kidnapper.

Unafraid of him, Sunny summons the courage. In Kevin's words, she even dares to turn up her nose at him.

Hence, Sunny sits beside the kidnapper while Kevin is still upset. Her sudden action shocks the kidnapper.

"Tell me, who ordered you to come here?"

The kidnapper looks at Sunny as if she is a fool.

"OK, then let's change the topic. Do you know me?" Sunny points at Kevin, "Or do you know him?"

The kidnapper is cooperative this time. He looks at Sunny, then Kevin, and then shakes his head.

" ... You don't know us? Why are you kidnapping us?"

"I'm not kidnapping you."

For some reason, the kidnapper's voice carries some grievances when he says this.

"What's going on? Tell me."

Hearing this, Kevin coldly sweeps a glance, and then signals Macie to come to his side.

The kidnapper looks at Sunny in confusion, but he suddenly has an impulse to pour out his heart.
