Chapter 234 Tricked Back Home
The man, puffing on his cigarette and engrossed in a game on his phone, chuckled, “Well, at least
Yvette didn’t deceive us. That girl truly is a beauty.”
“No matter what, we can’t afford any sl*p–ups tomorrow,” the woman said with a frown. ” Yvette didn’t
disclose how sharp she is. Look at the questions she asked me. They were all probing!”
This couple had been involved in human trafficking for many years, especially Fanny. She was a
master of deception. It was difficult for ordinary people to see through her unless they were
experienced detectives.
Unlike Fanny, Dickson Quirk wasn’t as skilled at deception. As a result, he kept his words minimal and
concentrated on transportation.
Reassuringly, he said, “You don’t have to worry about tomorrow. We’ll take the usual route. It’s only
right for us to meet our daughter, and no one will suspect a thing.
Fanny harbored resentment. “It’s all because of that family. They’re constantly watching us like hawks
and hindering our business. With so many children back then, who would’ve known which one
belonged to them?”
“Keep your voice down,” Dickson pulled her closer. “We are lucky that the village chief is suppressing
this matter. Otherwise, it would have been exposed. Don’t talk about it anymore and avoid them when
we go back”
The couple bickered with each other until midnig
The next day dawned, and before Margaret could even prepare breakfast, the couple arrived, bearing a
heap of food. Inside the house, Wynter wrote a note to Wolf. After reading it, Wolf nodded knowingly.
The couple waited outsidd. Wynter packed very few belongings, with only a single black bag slung over
her shoulder.
Atop her head sat a baseball cap, taming her waist–length hair, while her attire consisted of a black T–
shirt and trousers.
Adorning her fair wrist was a purple sugilite pendant that added an elegant touch to her overall
appearance.
As Wynter emerged, Fanny nudged Dickson, signaling him to swiftly approach and assist Wynter with
her bag.

“I can handle it myself,” Wynter smiled lightly. The couple didn’t argue over helping her with the bag.
Margaret couldn’t bear to part with Wynter. Even if it was just for a few days, she showered her with
endless reminders. Havenlight County had no access to high–speed trains, with not even a train station
available.
The only way to return was by taking a long–distance bus. The terrain was rugged, nestled amidst
mountains, and bordered by a river.
When they arrived at the bus terminal, Fanny clutched the ticket and explained, “Your father was
concerned that you wouldn’t be comfortable on a large bus, so he arranged for al
minivan.”
“A minivan?” Wynter raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Meanwhile, Dickson was already seated inside waving to them. “Over here, dear!”
While the exterior of the minivan looked worn out, the interior was surprisingly spacious. The back
seats were folded down to accommodate their luggage. Besides the driver, there were only three of
them.
Dickson was haggling with the driver over the fare. The five–hour mountain journey cost. 800 dollars,
with delivery to the village included.
Fanny chuckled softly. “I didn’t want you to feel uncomfortable. This way, we can stop anytime for you
to use the bathroom.” Indeed, Wynter couldn’t stand long rides on big
buses.
As a medical student, she possessed a keen sense of smell, and the rough terrain of the journey could
easily trigger headaches for her. Wynter simply grabbed her black bag and climbed into the minivan.
With w
Wynter already settled in the minivan, the couple exchanged a glance, feeling a sense of ease. Their
smiles grew wider as the minivan successfully left the city and merged onto the highway.
Fanny glanced at Wynter and handed her a bottle of mineral water. “Wynter, it’s a long journey. Have
some water.”
“No, thanks.” Wynter shifted her gaze from the window and smiled. “I’ll take a nap,” she said.
Fanny returned the smile warmly. “I’ll wake you up when we reach the rest stop.”
“Okay,” Wynter said, closing her eyes. At that moment, she seemed like an innocent youngThis text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

girl who was untouched by the complexities of the world.
Fanny exchanged a glance with Dickson, and a hint of disdain flashed in their eyes. Despite looking
formidable, Wynter, like most students, was inexperienced and easily deceived.
In contrast, the couple were seasoned human traffickers.
