Chapter 66: She was His Sister!

Monroe was stunned by his subconscious actions and his heart was turmoiled!

How could he do this to his sister?! He almost did what…? Kiss…her…?

Did he almost think that she was so beautiful, that it moved him?

Oh God…!

This was impossible! It was absolutely impossible!

Although Mary was a little angel and he liked her more and more with each passing day, he couldn’t cross the line by having romantic feelings for her!

She was his sister! That was all she was- his sister!

Monroe didn’t say a word. He turned around with a sullen face, got up, and strode away.

Mary turned her head and covered her chest in panic.

She had been in a relationship before. How could she not have known what the way that Monroe approached her meant?

So, she got him to his senses just in time.

Mary couldn’t imagine how bad things would be if Monroe really kissed her…

After an unknown amount of time, the man with the braided hair came over and called her, “Miss, they’re back!”

Mary got up and went back to ask the man his name. It turned out that his name was Adela, and the tattooed man, who liked Mary, was called Jim.

Mary watched them drive the beetle back.

Jim explained, “We gave them money in exchange for the car. Hehe. It’s kind of a squeeze, though. This car is for you, Miss Mary!”

Everyone in the Raging Flame Group was not short of money, so it was not difficult for them to buy the beetle.

Mary was more concerned about the little girl, “Where is little Mary?” She asked.

“She was sent to her grandmother’s house. We followed her and told her about the situation. They are going to take Little Mary to the town hospital tonight. Also, about her parents, the grandparents were very sad… sigh, we gave them some money to treat little Mary well. We also said that you would come back to see little Mary in the future and left them your contact details!”

Mary did not expect that they would solve the problem in such a good way!

She did not say anything and just turned around and went into the tent. “Then… everyone, go to sleep. We still have to travel tomorrow!”

“Eh! Good night, Miss Mary!”

Mary lay down in the tent again, but this time she was alone.

Feeling the blanket beside her, Mary felt empty.

The next day, Mary only got up at seven o’clock.

It was already bright outside. She went to the lake and wanted to wash her face, but when she saw the lake water, it was even worse than yesterday.

Mary decided not to wash up and returned.

“Miss, use this! I also went to take a look at the lake just now. The water is too dirty. I don’t know how much volcanic ash has fallen into it. I’m afraid it’s poisoned.”

Mary took a bottle of fresh mouthwash and mineral water from Adela and thanked him.

“Where’s Monroe?”

Mary cleaned herself and looked around, but she didn’t see Monroe.

She was puzzled. Could he still be uncomfortable from yesterday?

She was going to pretend that nothing had happened.

Adela said, “The Boss got up at five am. He went to the town with Jim and the others to collect supplies. He told us to wait here until they came back!”

He got up at five am?

Why didn’t she hear anything?

Mary didn’t know that Monroe hadn’t slept all night.

Adela went to the side and asked Mary, “Miss, shall I take care of the tent?”

Just as Mary was about to help with the tent, Monroe and the others came back.

“Hey, Monroe!” Mary ran over happily.

Monroe’s eyes were a little dark. He saw Mary running toward him, and instinctively… he didn’t dodge.

“Hey! Did you sleep well last night?”

Monroe stared at Mary, trying to see something from her face.

Mary grinned. “I’m fine. Why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Are you worried that we won’t be able to return to New York safely?”
