Divorced The True Heiress Gets It All novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789

After grabbing their maps and communicators, Aria and Liz set off toward Area C.

Liz said, “Fabian’s team is in this direction. Are we really not going to pick another route?”

Aria didn’t slow down. She said, “We’re going this way. My gut tells me there’s something good ahead.”

“But even if there is, it’s not like we’ll get our hands on it,” Liz argued. She thought, ‘Fabian’s team is always pushy-they’d never let anyone else walk away with the supplies.

‘There are only two of us-no way we could stand a chance against a whole team’

Aria gave Liz’s shoulder a light pat and said, “Whoever gets there first gets the supplies. It’s not like their names are written on the supply packs. Cathy put me in charge, so you have to listen to me.”

Liz hesitated for a couple of seconds, then finally nodded, though not very willingly. She replied, “Fine.” She prayed in her heart that they wouldn’t run into Fabian’s team.

They kept moving, the sun beating down on them, making them sweat buckets.

Hearing footsteps, Aria raised her hand, signaling for Liz to lighten her steps.

The two of them held their breath and moved stealthily, slipping past the patrol routes. Soon enough, they found the supply pack tucked behind a hidden rock.

Liz’s eyes lit up, and she was just about to rush forward when Aria suddenly grabbed her wrist, whispering, “Wait.”

Just then, there was a rustling sound from the bushes. And a team pushed aside the branches and came through.

The young man at the front was Leo Green. He had a face like carved stone, his eyes sweeping over Aria and Liz with a cold, indifferent look.

“Leo, they’ve got a map,” one of the team members shouted excitedly, spotting the map in Liz’s hand.

“There are only two of them. Let’s take them,” another member said.

Liz instinctively hid the map behind her back, her body tensing up as she eyed them warily.

Leo didn’t say a word at first. He just sized up Aria in silence, then shot a glance at Liz. After a long pause, he asked, “Why are you two separated from your team?”

Neither Aria nor Liz answered, and the air grew tense.

Another team member clicked his tongue impatiently and muttered a curse under his breath. He snapped, “Our captain is talking to you. Just the two of you, and you still have the nerve to act tough?”

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, looking ready to pounce.

Leo raised a hand to stop him, his expression blank. He said, “Let’s go.”

The man said, “Why not? There are only two of them. We could just grab their map and the supply pack.”

Another teammate muttered, “Are you stupid? They didn’t even look nervous when they saw us. Especially that pretty girl— she looked at us like we were nothing.
