In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 740

Laurel made jokes while flashing the torch onto the ground. I chuckled without commenting on it. Judging from the landscape around us, Rachel couldn’t have found a secluded spot here, but I’m certain she wouldn’t go too far away. Did something happen to her?

Meanwhile, Tessa seemed to be in a foul mood tonight. “She has always been a loose woman. Why does she have to have a diarrhoea now? I’m sure she has an ulterior motive,” she said in a frigid tone.

Clueless about what Nora had done earlier, Laurel asked, “Tessa, I can tell that you dislike Ms. Zimmer too.”

Tessa snorted coldly. “Only men love a woman like her. I bet any other woman will hate her too.”

I stopped listening to their gossips. Afterward, I spotted a darker zone in the middle of the tea farm. Out of curiosity, I marched toward it.

“Ah!” Taking a few steps forward, I fell downward.

“Scarlett!” Laurel shouted in a panic.

I fell into a pit. Unable to judge my current situation, I said, “Laurel, call Nora now. This pit is quite deep.”

“Okay, don’t be afraid. I’m calling them now!” she consoled me.

Reaching into my pockets, I couldn’t find my phone. Perhaps it dropped out of my pocket when I fell.

I squatted down and explored around, trying to look for my phone, but all I could touch was the soil. It was pitch-black all around me, so I could see nothing at all.

Fear grew in my heart. Afraid that I might accidentally touch a snake or an insect, I squatted on the ground and dared not do anything.

“Don’t fret, Scarlett. Nora and the others are coming over. Hold on, I’ll look for them. I’ll be right back!” Laurel said from above. She then added, “Tessa, talk to Scarlett and keep her company. I’ll get the others here.”

Tessa remained silent for a while. “Let me look for them. My stamina is better than yours, so I can walk faster.”

Nodding her head, Laurel stayed here after the woman left. Sprawling beside the pit, she turned on the flashlight of her phone and shone it downward. “Scarlett, can you hear me?”

I saw a glimpse of light over my head. “Yes, I can hear you. Don’t worry, I’m fine. It’s just that it’s too dark down here.”
