The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming-Chapter 382 - 379: Drawing Them Away

Feeling the trembling of the little girl in his arms, Norman Bennett murmured softly, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."

Elliana Lyle couldn’t say a word at this moment, just holding onto him tightly. The bulletproof vest and gear the man wore were a bit uncomfortable, but it still didn’t stop her from wanting to hold him tighter.

"Let’s catch up later, there are people all around now." Luna warned cautiously as she scanned the surroundings.

With that, Norman Bennett gently released the girl in his arms, his large hand tenderly ruffling her hair, and said softly, "Good girl, wait here for me, don’t be scared."

She nodded obediently.

Seeing this, Norman Bennett turned around without hesitation and walked toward the two corpses. After squatting beside them, he began to undress them.

"What are you going to do?" Luna asked curiously.

Soon, Norman Bennett had already changed clothes. By this time, Luna and Joy Lyle both understood what Norman Bennett was going to do. Although they were worried, they also knew it was the only way to leave.

"You go ahead." Luna said as she approached Elliana Lyle.

Watching Norman Bennett walk away, Elliana Lyle instinctively wanted to follow, but Luna stopped her, "Good girl, wait here. He’ll be fine."

"..." She said nothing, only stared in the direction Norman Bennett had left, understanding that he was going to help them divert people away.

Luna looked down and saw her bare feet, quickly taking off her own shoes and placing them in front of her, "Quick, put these on."

Seeing her reluctance, Luna simply lifted her foot and pushed it into the shoe. If it weren’t for the mountain behind them, she might have fallen.

Once the shoes were on, Luna divided the clothes from the corpses among them, giving the shirt to Joy Lyle, the jacket to Nancy, while she wore a pullover that Norman Bennett had taken off.

"How long have you all been outside?"

Faced with Luna’s question, Elliana Lyle shook her head; she didn’t know how long, just felt it was exceedingly long, unsure how much time had passed.

"Two days." Joy Lyle replied.

...

―――Meanwhile, on the other side.

After walking a distance, Norman Bennett spoke fluent English into the walkie-talkie, "Boss, there’s nothing on my side."

"Damn it! Did you search carefully?" The one referred to as the boss shouted at him.

He responded impatiently, "I did. There’s not even a ghost here."

The man in charge didn’t doubt anything.

He then walked a bit closer to the crowd. Because it was dark, he was four or five meters away from the others, and no one noticed anything strange.

And he saw the so-called boss.

At this moment, a subordinate said, "Did they run in the opposite direction?"

The leader, hearing this, immediately threw the cigarette he was biting onto the ground, stomping it out with his foot.

Just then, a voice came through the walkie-talkie.

The leader immediately cursed, "Who has come ashore?"

"Get the boat to the dock first."

...

Half an hour later.

A figure suddenly appeared at the spot where Elliana Lyle’s group was waiting. It was too far to see who it was, and Luna immediately raised her gun.

"It’s me."

Upon hearing Norman Bennett’s voice, Luna relaxed.

"Has everyone left? Can we go now?"

"No, they took the boat."

"What?" Luna, who was about to leave, paused and then asked, "So how do we leave?"

Norman Bennett didn’t speak, he just moved to Elliana Lyle’s side, holding her like comforting his own daughter, then asked Joy Lyle, "Is there any way?"

"Yes, there’s a signal tower to the south. I can locate it from there, but we should go together. There are too many people here, and we can’t rescue anyone from the island."
