Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

There were too many loose stones in the valley, and the ground was filled with obstacles. Not only were there rocks on the ground, but there were also trees.

Even though Tiffany had excellent hearing and had a stick in her hand as a blind cane, she still stumbled and fell several times along the way.

When she got closer and closer to the gunshots, all the sounds disappeared.

“June?”

Tiffany had a sudden feeling of fear. Those hitmen had come prepared. On the other hand, there were only a few people on Tiffany’s end, and none of them had firearms. Under such a circumstance, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.

Thinking about how intense the battle had been earlier, she wondered how June and the others were doing.

Tiffany jogged over, but she tripped over a protruding rock. She tripped hard, and her forehead hit the ground. A terrifying bloodstain appeared on her smooth forehead.

She took a sharp intake of breath as it truly hurt.

Tiffany gasped and struggled to get up while enduring the pain.

In the nearby jungle, the battle that took place earlier had been intense. Both sides were mostly injured.

Three subordinates were injured on Kenneth’s side, and the other party was in a similar situation, or even more serious.

The leader of the hitmen frowned, knowing that if this continued, they would be wiped out, so he retreated with his subordinates. But before leaving, he warned, “Mr. Harper, we’ll retreat this time out of respect for you, but if you still want to interfere next time, we won’t hold back.”

Kenneth replied indifferently, “I’ll be waiting at any time.”

“Retreat!”NôvelDrama.Org content.

The group of hitmen left and disappeared into the other end of the jungle.

Kenneth shook his hand and ordered, “Keep looking for them.”

He thought, ‘Since that group of hitmen has tracked them here, It means Tiffany and the others are nearby.’

At the thought of meeting Tiffany here, Kenneth was a little anxious and nervous.

Just then, a subordinate rushed over and exclaimed, “Mr. Harper there’s someone over there. I took a quick look, and that person seems to be Miss Kelley.”

Kenneth was overjoyed and immediately wanted to run over, but halfway there, he hesitated. Then, he said softly, “All of you, retreat and hide. Don’t let her see you.”

He thought, ‘Given how much Tiffany dislikes me, she probably doesn’t want to see me. “Got it.” The subordinates immediately did as they were told and hid in the nearby bushes.

Footsteps could be heard. In a moment of urgency, Kenneth also hid behind a large rock.

No one would have expected that the honorable scion of the Harper family, who had always been refined and reserved, would look indescribably awkward as he hid in a fluster at this moment.

The footsteps grew closer, and Tiffany slowly walked over.

Kenneth thought, ‘It seems like she has just fallen into the water. Her clothes are only partially dry under the sun’s heat. She’s holding a branch in her hand. Hiding behind the rock, Kenneth wondered if Tiffany was preparing to use this branch to whip someone.

With Tiffany’s rough personality, he thought it did seem possible….

Kenneth chuckled silently, feeling a mix of anticipation and nervousness, his heart fluttering uneasily.

He sneakily raised his head a few times, but fearing that Tiffany would spot him, he immediately ducked down after glancing at her.

Tiffany got closer and closer. She could smell the blood in the air, but when she listened carefully, there was no sound at all around her. She could only raise her voice and called out in all directions, “June? June?”

No one answered.

Tiffany called out the names of her subordinates twice, “Billy? Ronnie?”

There was still no response.

She thought, ‘With such intense gunshots earlier, could it be that those hitmen already killed June and the others…

Tiffany got antsy. She followed the smell of blood and went toward it, walking a little faster. However, she ended up stepping into an uneven crack in the ground and losing her balance, falling hard once again.

Her palm was cut by sharp stones, and the same thing happened to her knees.

She felt utterly powerless.

Tiffany forced herself to stand up, groping the ground for a moment before gripping the branch tightly again. Then, she slowly moved forward.

Behind the large rock, Kenneth, who had witnessed everything, wore an expression of disbelief.

‘It’s such an obvious pit, yet Tiffany could still fall?‘ he thought. Previously, she could even tame a tiger on the mountain after the trial.

Kenneth was stunned. A terrifying thought appeared in his mind.

‘In a situation like this, there’s no way Tiffany would be joking, he thought. ‘So, could it be that she can’t see anymore?‘

Kenneth suddenly stood up and walked toward Tiffany, not deliberately hiding his footsteps.

Tiffany immediately turned around and asked, “Who is it?”

She raised the branch she was using as a blind cane, thinking, ‘This is the mountains, so there could be other fierce beasts around.‘

Tiffany tilted her head to listen for any sounds, her face full of a defensive expression.

Kenneth’s pupils constricted, and he thought, ‘She really can’t see… How come she ends up like this?‘

He slowly approached her. When he saw that the bright and clear eyes of the girl in front of him had lost their former luster his breath hitched. He felt as though even gasping had become somewhat difficult.

Tiffany heard the sound and raised the branch in her hand, her voice turning cold as she said, “Who is it?”

Kenneth composed himself. He deliberately made his voice sound deep and changed his tone as he said, “I’m from a nearby village. What are you looking for here? Do you need my help?”

“This voice is a little muffled and rough, Tiffany thought. Indeed, I don’t know him

After thinking for a moment, she asked, “Did you see anyone on your way here? I was separated from my family and couldn’t find them for the time being.”

Kenneth lowered his voice and replied, “Nope. But I just saw a gunfight here. It’s not safe. Where are you going? I’ll send you there.”

After a brief pause, he continued, “I’ll get my people from the village to search around here. If they find your family. I’ll get your family to meet up with you at the place you’re heading to. How about that?”

“Thanks, but the place I’m heading to is far away. How about this? Can you take me out of this valley?”

“Okay.”

Kenneth agreed. He reached out to hold the other end of the branch, guiding her as he walked ahead. “Slow down. There are many weeds here. Be careful not to trip.”

Feeling the kindness from Kenneth, Tiffany smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Her smile was still stunning. Even the two bloodstains on her forehead did not diminish her beauty at all. Kenneth’s eyes glinted, and his ears flushed. He had no choice but to look away in a fluster.

The other subordinates hiding in the bushes looked at each other, wondering if they should follow.

Kenneth immediately waved, signaling for them to follow from a distance and not get too close.

Although Tiffany could not see, her hearing was sharp. If people were to appear, they would not be able to keep the chaotic footsteps from her.

The subordinates did as they were told and stood still. They only slowly followed after Tiffany and Kenneth had walked farther away.

Just like that, Kenneth led Tiffany out of the valley.

Along the way, he pondered, ‘How can I make Tiffany board my helicopter and leave with me by assuming the identity of an ordinary person? Otherwise, it would take a long time to leave given that the plain is too vast and I can’t find a car on short notice.‘

After thinking about it, Kenneth said, “By the way, where are you going? We happen to have a helicopter taking off to buy medicinal herbs. If it’s on your way, I can bring you along.”

“Buying medicinal herbs?” Tiffany said. “Where are you all going”

“The Azure Sea Royal Family’s place.”

Everyone knew that the Azure Sea Royal Family produced medicinal herbs in abundance, so what he said wasn’t surprising. Tiffany raised her eyebrows with a half–smile, thinking, ‘It happens that I’m heading there. Is it that coincidental?‘
