Ch. 193 Each Other's Courage

After struggling to help Ashley get to the oasis, Chleo laid limp under a coconut tree after satisfied drinking water in the lake. Walking under the scorching sun and going back and forth just to pick up Ashley was exhausting.

Ashley was still playing with the water to quench her thirst and moisten her dry skin. After she started to feel refreshed, she shifted her gaze to Chleo, who now closed her eyes while leaning against the tree.

Ashley got up and walked over to Chleo to sit next to her.

"Why did you come back? You could have left me there."

"You want me to leave you?"

"I thought you don't like me?"

"Isn't it the opposite? You're the one who hates me to the point hired someone to kidnap me?"
