Chapter 519: Chapter 498: Is it meant to be given to our Boss to enjoy?

Roy Thompson’s tense body, upon hearing Bianca speak, quickly turned around and covered her mouth. Realizing he was too nervous, he brought his small head closer to hers and said, "We’re in the mountains now. If you make any noise, it’s easy for us to be discovered. So, from now on, don’t talk, just follow me!"

After speaking, Oliver glanced at the group of people not far away, who had already gotten out of their cars and were preparing to go on foot into the mountains. With a determined look on his face, he took a deep breath, then gently touched Bianca’s head. His dark eyes remained fixed on her, silent for a while before he asked, "Bianca, are you scared?"

Because of Roy’s intense gaze and tense body, Bianca felt startled. She subconsciously nodded her head, then shook it.

"Brother Roy, I’m not scared!"

As if fearing that he wouldn’t believe her, Bianca added, "I am the daughter of Mr. Gordon, the invincible super genius who can cross all roads. Therefore, I am not afraid, I must not be afraid!"

Roy: "..."

Was there really a need to explain so much just to say she wasn’t scared?

Furthermore, her voice trembled when she said she wasn’t scared. Roy couldn’t help but smile helplessly. Gently ruffling her head, he stared at her soft, adorable, growing face for a while before speaking seriously again, "If you’re scared, don’t act tough. Just stay here. We just stopped at this position, and my dad and Uncle Gordon must have located it. As long as you stay in place, they’ll be able to find you!"

"I don’t want to be here alone; I want to be with you. I’ll be scared on my own!"

As soon as Roy mentioned her staying alone, Bianca immediately grabbed his arm with fear, exclaiming, "Brother Roy, I don’t want to be alone. I want to go with you. Please don’t leave me behind, okay?"

Her soft, innocent voice tugged at his young heart. Roy’s dark gaze remained locked on her face, his heart softening. Though he originally wanted her to stay behind, he couldn’t bring himself to say so. Instead, he spoke different words, opening his mouth again.

"Alright, I won’t leave you behind!" Roy looked at Bianca, nodding vigorously as he promised her. "You just stay behind me later, and I will protect you. I won’t let you get hurt. So don’t be scared, okay?"

Roy never thought that a single, seemingly insignificant promise made in his youth would unknowingly become his life’s obsession. From that moment on, he was determined!

Hearing this, Bianca’s head froze for a moment, her black eyes staring at Roy’s face just as he spoke, turning and turning. Finally, she nodded vigorously, "With Brother Roy protecting me, I won’t be scared!"

With that said, her small body automatically clung to his back, obediently following him.

Two small heads, their eyes focused on the car that had been forced to stop at the end of the road, spotted Julie Harrison being pulled out of the car.

Besides her wrists being slightly tied up, there were no other signs of abuse.

One by one, the people got off, and Roy saw a familiar woman. His little eyebrows furrowed, a fierce expression crossed over his still young face, his fists clenched instinctively.

"What’s wrong, Julie? Aren’t you going to interrogate me?" Amanda Foster’s voice, filled with defiance and pride, taunted Julie. It was far different from the sincere and ready-to-attack demeanor she had displayed just the previous day.

"Interrogate you? Why ask out of untrustworthiness?"

Julie responded with a cold, mocking smile, "You’ve always been this kind of person. Wouldn’t it be a waste of words to ask?"

How could she be so naïve as to be deceived?

Saying that Oliver went to get the blood diamond was just a trick to lure her out of the Gordon family’s mansion and dispose of her.

How could she fall for such a brainless and stupid scheme?

Her intelligence almost scared her to death!

She had already been fooled once and certainly wasn’t going to be fooled a second time. Now that Amanda had Julie in her hands, making a scene would be pointless!

"Heh, Julie, you’ve become smarter after working as a nanny for a while, huh?"

Amanda looked at her as a chilling smile crossed her lips, "You’ve even given up on struggling?"

After saying this, she glanced at the surrounding people and coldly said, "Get her up there! I want to see if Oliver will choose her or me!"

She wanted to see just how ruthless this man could be.

Throwing away the feelings they’d shared since childhood, did she really think she could just up and leave? He still had her mother’s life hanging over him!

Julie’s eyes were soon blindfolded, and she was then forced into the mountain ropeway. With a loud bang, a group of people took the ropeway straight up the mountain.

As soon as the people in front of them had gone, Roy and Bianca crawled out of the bushes and quickly found the ropeway they had ridden before, preparing to go up the mountain.

It was Bianca’s first time witnessing Roy’s extraordinary skills when it came to riding the single-person, unobstructed ropeway. She had only ridden it once before, with the help of staff. She didn’t know how to board alone, but it turned out Roy could solve the problem in a matter of minutes.

"Brother Roy, how do you know how to do this too?"

For the first time, Bianca saw Roy as a genius in front of her.

"Mm, my dad taught me."

Roy simply nodded, lightly explaining, before he busied himself with strapping Bianca and himself onto the ropeway. The young duo, unaware of the danger they faced, boarded the mountain ropeway without any reservations.

It wasn’t until they arrived at the top that they realized just how dangerous the journey had been. They had been incredibly lucky.

As soon as Roy helped Bianca off the ropeway, they heard footsteps. They both crouched down and listened to the people talking.

"The Boss wants us to block the way up the mountain. How will people get up there later?"

"How should I know? If the Boss wants us to block it, we’ll block it. Maybe he doesn’t want them coming up here!"

"Hey, do you think the woman bringing another woman more beautiful than herself up here is doing it as a gift for the Boss?"
