The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2006

Being completely inexperienced, I looked at the tent in front of me with a blank expression. "Are you sure you can do this?" I asked Marius. "It's a small problem." Marius patted his chest. He brought out the tools and said, "I've gone camping with Drover before. We set up our own tents." "Do you two camp often?"

Marius had me help him open up the tent when he said, "Nope." He glanced at Drover who was paying the fees in the distance. Seeing that he still was not making his way over, he continued, "Heather used to love camping a lot, so we'd go out a lot. I suppose we went to quite a lot of places."

I see.

It felt like everything about Drover revolved around Heather. Heather must be really charming, and the cause of her death had become a point of particular curiosity to me.

When Drover came back, our tents were almost ready. He reported the situation to us, "I made a reservation for lunch, dinner, and breakfast tomorrow. There's a mountain nearby that we can climb. The boss said that the mountaintop is beautiful. If we still have energy after lunch in a while, we can go take a look."

I nodded and replied in unison with Marius, "Alright."

There were two tents in total. Drover and Marius would sleep in one while I would sleep in the other. After setting them up, we put pillows and quilts in them.

I did not expect them to be able to pack so many things in their backpacks. I was a little stunned and could not help gulping. "You guys are really experienced."

"Well, I've been camping a few times before," Drover replied calmly without mentioning anything else.

I glanced at Marius but did not bring up anything else.

It was almost noon when everything was ready. The boss delivered our lunches on time. It was mainly home-cooked food, but it smelled delicious as the food had been fried in a large wok. I was eager to take a bite. "It's delicious."

"Food prepared in woks have this smokiness. That's why they are delicious. Sis Wan, you should eat more. After all, you're eating for two." Marius added a lot more food to my lunchbox. Drover, on the other hand, did not say much.

I glanced at him, and he just so

happened to be looking in my direction. met his eyes for a moment before quickly turning away kept feeling like I had misunderstood him, thus I was a tad bit guilty.

After our awkward lunch was over, we went back to the tents to rest.

That afternoon, Marius came to call me. "Sis Wan, get up. Let's go climb the mountain."

I woke up leisurely. Upon hearing him, I responded, "Okay, wait a minute."

I had just woken up, so my head was still a little foggy. I yawned and freshened myself up before leaving the tent. "Let's go."

Seeing me dressed in short sleeves, Drover reminded me, "Did you bring a jacket? It'll be nightfall by the time we get to the top. It'll be cold."

"Ah, I don't think I brought it." I shook my head. I had thought about bringing it, but I seemed to have forgotten.

"It's alright. I brought one extra. Just let me know when you're cold."

"Thanks."

Although Drover's voice was still calm, it was filled with concern.

We drove to the mountain not far away and stood at the foot of it. This should be the mountain the boss mentioned.

"It looks a little high. Sis Wan, will

you be able to manage?" Marius was

probably worried that I might not be able to manage seeing that I was pregnant.

I had not exercised for a long time and should probably move more, so I nodded. "I can manage."

"Alright, then let's go."

Marius took the lead and walked in the front. I followed behind him while Drover covered the back.

The start felt fine, but I got really

tired in the middle. I was out of breath and almost slipped.

Fortunately, Drover, who was at the back, supported me. "Be careful." en.swhovels.net
