Chapter 703: Chapter 703 Estrangement

Did he get close to her not entirely because he liked the character but because he liked her too?

He had always rejected her before this. Was it just because he was not willing to forgive her?

Eudora hugged Sugar Bun tightly again.

She started to feel powerful as she believed that her son had begun to accept her.

She began to listen carefully to the movement outside. She had to find a way to convince those two people to let their guard down so that she could take the opportunity to escape.

At this moment, she could hear the two people outside beginning to argue again.

Baldrick was still furious at Mark because of the events that transpired earlier that morning. He was about to go on a fit of rage.

“What do you mean by that? Don’t you dare think that you’re the boss just because I’ve always listened to you! I just don’t want to argue with you. Don’t you dare think that you could order me around! I don’t care. Do whatever you want!”

Mark’s voice was very low and Eudora couldn’t hear what he said.

However, Baldrick became more and more agitated.

“Well, let’s see which one of us would be screwed first then!”

Then, she heard footsteps of someone leaving.

A great opportunity!

Eudora’s eyes lit up. She picked up Sugar Bun and walked out.

She did not leave the cave. She just stood at the entrance and looked at Baldrick with a calm and composed look.

Baldrick was visibly angry, and when he saw the gloating look in Eudora’s eyes, he was even more annoyed.

“What are you looking at?”

Eudora smirked, “You keep saying that you’re not afraid of him but you are still under his control, aren’t you?”

“Bullsh*t!” Baldrick spat.

“I just don’t want to quarrel with him! It’s none of your business.”

“Of course, it’s none of my business! I’m bored and I can’t run away anyway. Can’t I just watch the fun?”

Eudora deliberately blinked her eyes and looked at him.

“Hey, if the two of you were to fight, who do you think will win?”

Eudora deliberately asked this question, somewhat to provoke the primitive instinct in Baldrick. After all, aggressive men would always feel the urge to impress, especially since Eudora was an attractive woman.

Sure enough, Baldrick raised his chin and said, “Of course I’m better!”

“I don’t believe it!” Eudora shook her head, “If you really are stronger than him, why are you still being pinned down by him then?”

Baldrick snorted and immediately glared at Eudora.

“Do you think that I’m a fool? You b*tch. I know you’re doing this for a reason!”

Eudora’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t expect this man to be able to read her mind.

She was panicking, but she still tried her best to remain calm on the surface. She could not let him figure out her intentions of escaping.

With a smile, Eudora said innocently.

“What are you talking about? You two are macho guards, and now, I am sick. What kind of intentions could I have? Forget it, since there isn’t a show to watch, I’d better take my child to sleep! It’s so boring!”

She then straightened her back and turned around to go back inside.

She silently prayed that the man would be fooled by her. All of a sudden, Footsteps came from behind again. Eudora thought that Baldrick had caught up with her.

She subconsciously moved forward and dodged. The next second, she heard him shouting.

“Mark, don’t go. We have to make it clear today.”

Mark snorted, “What is wrong with you again?”

“What’s wrong with me? You are the one who has a problem! I am very sober today. I am not afraid of you, but I have tolerated you for so long for the sake of Master Thomas. You must apologize to me about what happened just now, otherwise, I will not forgive you!”

“You’re drunk again, aren’t you?” Mark said as he tried to leave.

Before he knew it, Baldrick had thrown a punch at him.

Mark was stunned for a moment as he did not expect Baldrick to attack him.

“You must be out of your mind! Fine. I have been dissatisfied with you for a long time too. I will teach you a lesson today!”

The two started fighting, and Eudora’s heart thumped. She ought to seize this opportunity to escape with Sugar Bun.

She whispered to Sugar Bun in a low voice.

“Mommy will take you out later. Sugar Bun, you must cooperate with me, okay?”

He could not speak but his chubby little hand patted her shoulder.

As if to cheer themselves up silently, Eudora nodded and said, “Okay, then let’s go in 1, 2, 3!”

Then, Eudora held Sugar Bun tightly and quickly went to the entrance of the cave. It just so happened that the two men had already fought their ways to the other side of the cave.

At this moment, both of them were focused on defeating each other, and they did not pay any attention to Eudora at all.

This was the best opportunity.

Eudora made up her mind and ran out with her son in her arms.

The wind whistled in her ears and she started running aimlessly. She could only run forward along with the footprints.

Behind her came Mark’s voice, “Idiot, she ran away!”

Baldrick still refused to let go, “I’m going to win soon!”

Mark was so furious that he kicked him away and chased after Eudora.

He shouted, “The mountains here are extremely steep. You won’t be able to run far with the child. Your behavior would result in your death.”

Eudora didn’t pay attention to him. She preferred to think positively. If she didn’t try, how would she know whether they would be dead or alive?

Furthermore, Sugar Bun and she would only end up dying if they continued staying in the cave.

Eudora ran even faster and she soon reached a small river. It blocked her way.

Eudora paused. If she was alone, she would have jumped down in a heartbeat. But Sugar Bun was afraid of water.

He got injured the last time they went to the swimming pool.

Eudora stopped running and Mark slowly approached her, “I’ve told you that there is nowhere else to run. Come back with me. As long as you cooperate with us well, I won’t hurt you!”

Eudora pursed her lips, “What are you two trying to do by abducting us?”

Mark was startled.

“I can’t tell you this for the time being, but as long as you cooperate with us, we don’t want to kill you either! Believe me!”

Eudora sneered in her heart, “I’ll only believe that if I’m a fool.”

How could she believe the scoundrels’ words?

Noticing that Eudora was quiet, he took a few more steps forward and was about to grab the child. Eudora swung her arms away, but she did not dodge.

As was about to fall into the river, she could feel someone grabbing her from behind.

“Be careful, Mrs. Granger!”
