Chapter 109: Chaos

"I know now," Jade said with a smile on her lips. The tears on her face had long dried and now what remained was just indifference.

She then slowly stood up from the ground.

"I had given up my twenty best years to you but no more," she said and then turned around and left. 

Just like that with her every grievance and resentment buried deep in her heart.

Donovan smiled looking at her back. But before Jade could go any further she stopped in her trek as an ear-piercing whistle echoed in the forest.

Donovan also became alert after hearing it. 

He quickly stood up and ran towards his horse.

"Gracia…quickly this way," he yelled at Jade. Jade has already taken the reins of her own horse. In the next second she was on her horse riding it behind Donovan.

It was a special signal for danger.

Donovan was quick to ride his horse in the direction from where someone had blown a whistle.
