Chapter 208: Midnight

Suddenly, a noise outside followed by a painful scream interrupted them. Both of them startled.

"Stop talking and quickly, go out and catch the person." Clara urgently instructed Mateo to leave.

He walked toward the door. Before leaving, he hugged Clara's waist and said, "When I come back, see where you can escape to."

Blushing, Clara pushed him away, saying, "Quick! Otherwise, it won't be good if they run away."

Mateo went out, and Clara followed closely behind. They didn't know who had fallen into the trap.

"Put on your shoes. It's too dark outside, be careful of the nails on the ground," Mateo advised.

Even in the dark of night, Mateo could see clearly. The bucket was rolling on the ground, the iron nail board was thrown aside, and the person must not have run far.
