Chapter 122

Chapter 122 If You Dare To Escape, I Will Burn This Island.

Nolan pushed open the wooden door and found a simply decorated room with furniture made entirely of wood.

There was a small bed in the room, and next to it, there was a drawing board.

The scene showed a cherry blossom tree under the moonlight. This island appeared particularly tranquil under the moonlight.

The painter was highly skilled, and Nolan could tell at a glance that it was the work of Peyton.

At that moment, Nolan’s heart was filled with joy and he thought, “Finally found it.”

Next to it, there was a thick stack of paintings, and Nolan calmly examined them.

In the scene, men who had been fishing under the sunset returned, while women and children had smiles on their faces.

There were young boys making grasshoppers, there were young boys painting in the morning sun. And there was a man wearing a metal mask leaning against a cherry blossom tree.

Perhaps she painted it without any intention, but this painting took on a different meaning in Nolan’s eyes. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Nolan thought, “It was this man who took her away.”

Nolan exuded a chilling coldness all over his body. Holding a scroll,

he approached Laci and asked in a cold, harsh voice, “Mrs. Manley, tell me, where is she?”

Peyton watched as Nolan entered Laci’s house and she was excited to go back.

One hand tightly grasped her wrist. She snapped back to reality and saw that it was Phillip’s hand. Phillip didn’t know when he had come back.

Peyton’s face was filled with panic, “He came!”

“I knew, don’t be afraid,” Phillip comforted her as he gently touched her head, “I will take you away, come with me.”

Peyton’s heart was both anxious and chaotic. She quickly followed Phillip down the path and off the island. There, a speedboat was waiting, and as soon as she stepped onto it, she would be free.

But could she really obtain freedom?

She turned around and glanced back, someone had already noticed her tracks and immediately reported it to Nolan.

Nolan’s angry voice came out from the loudspeaker, “Peyton, if you dare to escape, I will burn down this island!”

The nightmare of many days turned into reality. Nolan’s voice clung tightly to Peyton like a nightmare.

Peyton’s mental defense completely collapsed. She trembled and said, “I have to go back.”

Phillip said earnestly, “If you leave now, you still have a chance to obtain the freedom you desire.”

“How many lives does my freedom cost? This island doesn’t even exist

on the map, and even the residents on the island have no identification. Have you seen those warships? Nolan can simply claim that all the people on the island are extremely dangerous terrorists, and they can open fire without Nolan having to take any responsibility.”

Phillip furrowed his brows and asked, “Who exactly was he?”

“I didn’t know,” Peyton only knew that Nolan had saved her from the sea that night, wearing camouflage clothes. And not far away, a military ship had sunk a pirate ship.

Amidst the blazing flames, Nolan wore a mask adorned with a demonic totem on his face.

During the years they were married, Nolan would occasionally leave for a period of time, using “business trips” as an excuse. It could be for a few days or even a month. During that time, he would completely disappear and not give any updates.

He had more than one wound on his body. These wounds included. knife wounds as well as gunshot wounds.

Nolan didn’t speak, and Peyton never asked either.

She only vaguely knew that the Dalton family, like the Chase family, secretly worked for the government.

Who exactly is Nolan, she never cared.

But she had no idea that Nolan not only had great influence in the business world, but could also command the army, navy, and air force!

If Peyton left, she would have implicated everyone on this island. She couldn’t just leave like that.

While Peyton hesitated, Nolan had already walked over. He stood on the high hill, looking down on everything in the world like a king.

“Peytie, as I said before, you couldn’t escape.”
