Chapter 31 Making An Escape!

"Okay, now listen carefully.""I am going to take you out and then we will reunite with David who is busy finding a safe route for escape."

"You have two options!"

"First, follow David and stay with him for a few days until things calm down. Doing so, you will without a doubtend up as his second wife."

"Second, I will intentionally leave a trail while we escape. This will give the guards a chance to give us a chase."

"I have already sent a letter to Rose telling her about our escape route. When the guards chasing us catch up to us, amidst the chaos Rose will use the opportunity to secretly take you away."

"Now tell me, What future do you want to choose?"

She was taken aback by the sudden choice given to her.

Elandor knew it was not her fault as anyone would be confused and hesitate when suddenly given choices that can change their lives.

After taking some deep breaths, her weak body mustered some strength to speak, "Elandor, I don't know what to choose, choosing either option will make me lose something!"

"If I choose to go with David, I will lose the bond that I have with my family and everything I have painstakingly acquired in my life. But, if I choose not to go with him.. then I will lose the chance to be close to him in the future!"

After speaking her mind, her head drooped down.

It seemed her exhausted body was exerting a lot of strength to speak.

I bent down and held her shoulders with both my hands.

"Look at me, Parul!"

"We are running out of time here and I can't allow you to sit the whole night to make a decision"

"One can't be selfish in life and you can't always choose the best of both worlds."

"If you want to be David, badly enough that you can't even live or breathe without him, choose him and if you really care about your family, guild and everything else that you have achieved in your life with your hard work, then don't go with him."

"Now tell fast, we are running out of time", I exclaimed with a sense of urgency.

Normally, I knew that it was almost impossible for me to be able to influence the decisions of a strong and independent woman like her but currently, her situation was bleak and I knew, her emotional defences were at an all-time low!

Thus, I had already figured out that whatever I speak at this moment will directly enter the core of her heart.

She again took some good minutes to calm down and once again figured out her situation, then after taking a deep breath, she finally opened her mouth. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I know that I like David but I don't think I like him to the extent that I can't breathe or live without him."

"I will choose the second option, Elandor!"

After hearing her, I was forced to bite my lips to hide the smile that was subconsciously creeping on my face.

I knew that all the words that I took so much time to speak managed to have some effect on her.

I couldn't help but mutter in my mind, 'The plan is going in the right direction!'

"Okay, now time's up."

"Let's leave!"

I supported her as we moved out of the prison cell.

While doing so, I put a veil on her face to avoid the guards from guessing her identity for some time.

As we moved to the next corridor, we were stopped by two guards that were on the round.

One of them spoke loudly, "Stop! Where are you taking this prisoner?"

I moved closer to Parul and muttered slowly in her ears, "Be quiet and leave everything to me!"

I maintained my calm posture and answered back, "Is this the way you speak to your seniors?"

"Can't you see my name tag which clearly denotes my high military rank", I exclaimed at them without showing any worry or hesitation.

"We-we are sorry Sir, but prisoners from this section are not allowed to be moved!"

"Do you dare to question me?"

"I have been ordered by Lady Evelyn to move this prisoner to the prison cell near the main entrance."

"Lady Evelyn is already too angry because of the prisoner named Parul"

"I heard that this new female prisoner is acting tough and resisting torture with her mere willpower causing Lady Evelyn to have a headache."

"Yes you are right, I have heard that this Parul stole something from the royal family."

"Yes, her fate is already sealed hahaha! What's the point of showing defiance, she will be sentenced to death anyway." added the other guard.

I could feel the body of Parul, which I was supporting, shaking with fear upon hearing those guards.

I slowly patted her back to calm her down.

"Okay, I can't waste my time or Lady Evelyn may end up spending her anger on us."

"Yes, you are right. We are just simple guards. Our superiors will definitely scold us if we delay their decisions."

"Okay now I will take this prisoner to her new designated location, you guys remember to be vigilant.

I have heard a lot of prisoners are thinking to escape these days."

One of the guards patted his chest, "Don't worry Sir, you can rest assured!.... With us here, those lowly prisoners can only dream to escape hahaha!"

After successfully fooling the guards I took Parul to the place where David would reunite with us.

Soon we saw the tired face of David who was waiting for us.

Upon seeing us, he was filled with ecstasy.

"Haha!..Elandor, I knew that your plan would work!"

He moved closer to us to give a warm hug to Parul, but she dodged him and said, "let's not waste our time!"

"We need to escape fast."

pSeeing this, I knew Parul's mind was already affected by me.

p

Seeing this, I knew Parul's mind was already affected by me.

If I hadn't enlightened her with my words she would be hugging David happily by now.

Both of them were clueless that my goal of separating them from each other had already reached the final stage.
