Chapter 382 Go As Far As You Can

Delilah was very anxious. She never thought that Caty would escape. When Mark said those words to her, although she spoke somewhat irrationally, she really hoped that Caty would meet a good end. Delilah was very agitated and did not know what to do. She really hoped that Caty could go far away and never come back. However, what surprised her was that the more she wished for that, the more it would never come to fruition. After returning, she was about to enter when she heard a weak voice behind her. “Ms. Collins…” Delilah suddenly jumped and whirled around, looking for the source of the voice. At that moment, a figure walked out from around the corner. Delilah’s eyes instantly widened upon seeing her. Caty Davis, dressed in black and wrapped tightly around herself, revealed only her face and looked at Delilah. Delilah was stunned for a few seconds before immediately walking up. “H-How did you get here?” “I escaped to see you!” At that point, Delilah’s eyes looked around, and without a word, she pulled Caty back. The nanny came up. “Ms. Collins, you’re back…” Delilah ignored her and pulled Caty up the stairs. “I’m busy so I’ll go upstairs now. Don’t bother me unless something happens!” Caty followed behind her, lowering her head so that no one could see her face. The nanny did not know what exactly was going on and just nodded blankly. Her eyes swept over Caty’s body, but she did not feel anything off. Thus, Delilah pulled Caty upstairs. After reaching the room, Delilah let her go and immediately started packing her stuff. Caty stood behind her and stared. “Ms. Collins, what are you doing?” Delilah packed with a disordered heart. It was all her jewelry. “You have to leave. Now!” “I’m not leaving!” Caty said. Delilah turned to her. “Where will you go if you’re not leaving?” “I don’t know, but I don’t want to leave!” “You escaped now, but they’ll be looking for you everywhere!” Delilah gave Caty her expensive jewelry. “Take these first. When you find a good place, I’ll wire some money to you!” Seeing the items, some of which were Delilah’s favorites, Caty frowned. “I can’t take these. These are your precious belongings!” “None of that matters now!” Delilah said in agitation and looked at her. “Take these and go as far as you can. Never come back again, and don’t contact anyone!” Caty frowned at Delilah’s expression. “I came back to see you, not for these things!” Delilah also frowned. “I don’t want to go either. I don’t want to leave!” “You’ll be arrested sooner or later!” “I know that!” “But you…” “I’m just not reconciled, and I’m worried about you!” Delilah blinked at that, not knowing what to say. “You don’t have to worry about me. I’m fine. I’ll be okay!” “Can you really accept this?” “What else can I do?” Delilah retorted. “What doesn’t belong to me will never belong to me!” “I can make him belong to you!” Caty said sinisterly. Hearing this, Delilah looked up at her. “What are you planning?” Caty looked at her. “Ms. Collins, don’t worry. I’ll definitely make him belong to you!” Delilah shook her head. “No, no. I’ve already given up on him. Caty, don’t do anything for me anymore!” “Ms. Collins, I can never repay what you’ve done for me in this life. This is the only way I can repay you!” “No, you don’t owe me anything. Even if you did, you’ve already repaid me. Listen to me and leave…” “Just you wait. He’ll definitely belong to you!” “Caty…” Just as Delilah was about to say something, there was a noise outside followed by the nanny’s voice. “Ms. Collins, the police are here!” Delilah froze upon hearing that and glanced at Caty. Caty was also a little worried. She was not afraid of being arrested, but she could not get caught before she finished her business. “Y-You stay here. Don’t go anywhere, got it?” Delilah said. Caty nodded. “Find a place to hide. If anything happens, run. Understand?” Delilah instructed. Caty nodded again. Delilah took a deep breath and went outside, pretending to be calm. After opening the door, Delilah looked downstairs. “What’s going on?” The nanny looked upstairs. “The officers said they had something to ask you!” Seeing the policemen downstairs, Delilah took a deep breath and walked down. “Is there anything I can help you with?” “We would like to talk to you about Caty Davis!” “Oh, wasn’t she arrested already? I’ve already said all there is to say. Is there anything else?” “It’s like this. She ran away from the hospital a few days ago and we’ve been searching for her but to no avail. Do you have any idea where she could have gone?” Delilah was very nervous when she heard this, but she forced herself to appear calm. A cold smile curled on her mouth. “You mean to say that I’m harboring her?” “That’s not what we meant. We’re just investigating all our leads!” “I know that you’ve arrested her, but I don’t know when she escaped!” Delilah looked away. The police officer looked at her. “Ms. Collins, please don’t misunderstand. We just want to consult with you if she has any places she likes to go to, or if there are places others don’t know of. Please cooperate with us!” Delilah’s character was never strong, but she forced herself to act. She blinked. “I don’t know. I’ve already told you every location I know!” “Very well then. If Ms. Collins remembers anything or wants to add something, or if Caty Davis comes back to you, please let us know immediately!” Delilah nodded. “Alright, I will!” The officers nodded and prepared to leave. At that moment, the nanny walked up. “Ms. Collins, the person from earlier was…” Delilah suddenly froze at her question. The officers that were just about to leave also paused and turned to look at Delilah. Her expression was extremely unnatural as she rebuked the nanny. “What are you talking about?” “The lady from just now dropped this…” The nanny picked something up and gave it to Delilah. Delilah immediately snatched it from her hands. “This is mine…” She was just about to put it away when the officer spoke up. “Does Ms. Collins have a friend around?” Delilah looked at him. “I do. Is that something strange?” The officer smiled. “Of course not, but would it be possible to meet them?” Delilah looked at him, her expression growing even more uneasy. “Is it inconvenient?” “There’s no such person. I don’t know what you’re talking about!” After saying that, she glanced at the nanny on the side. The nanny also felt that something was off. Did she say something wrong? At that moment, the officer looked at the nanny, and she immediately said, “Oh, I was mistaken. I meant a few days ago…” The officer frowned. There was clearly something off here, but he could not tell by looking at Delilah. In the end, he nodded. “Alright, in that case, we’ll leave first!” “Goodbye, Ms. Collins!” “Goodbye!” The nanny watched them and saw the officers out. At the door, the officers looked at the nanny. “Are you sure it was a few days ago and not today?” The nanny lowered her head. “Yes…” “Perjury is a crime!” The officer whispered. “I…” The nanny suddenly panicked, not knowing what to say. At that moment, Delilah shouted from inside. “Aunt Joyce, I’m hungry. Cook something for me!” “Oh, I’m coming!” The nanny answered and said no more, and shut the door immediately. The officers stood outside silently. However, they deduced that Caty Davis must have come back here. “What should we do now?” “Get some men to surveil this place. Since Caty Davis escaped, she’ll definitely come here!” “Yes!” …… After shutting the door, the nanny’s hand continued to shake. She walked in and looked at Delilah with a regretful expression. Things almost went south because of her big mouth. “Ms. Collins…” “Don’t run your mouth in the future!” “Yes yes yes, I understand!” Delilah did not have the heart to scold her. She looked upstairs and immediately went up. “Caty, Caty…” At that moment, a figure came out from the bathroom. “I’m here!” Delilah breathed out a sigh of relief after seeing her. “They’ve already found this place. You should leave quickly!” “Leave?” Caty frowned. “I don’t think I’ll be able to leave now!” “Why?” “They must have their suspicions if they came here. If I’m not mistaken, there’s definitely someone standing guard outside just waiting for me to come out!” Delilah froze and immediately walked toward the balcony. Sure enough, there was a car parked outside. She looked back at Caty. “Then what should we do?” “It’ll be hard to go out now. We can only think of a way!” Delilah frowned with a worried look. “Ms. Collins, you don’t have to worry about me. They have no way of coming up without a search warrant, but if they’re really suspicious, they’ll definitely apply for one…” “Then what should we do?” Caty thought about it, but this was not something that could be solved in a short time. “Don’t worry. Even if I get caught, I won’t implicate you!” “Now’s not the time to talk about that!” Delilah said. Caty looked around and suddenly thought of something when she saw the suitcase. “That’s it!” “You have an idea?” Caty did not say anything and instead told her directly using her actions. Watching Caty’s movements, Delilah’s eyes widened. “Will it work?” “We can only try!” Caty said. Delilah looked at her. Although she was worried, there was no other way now. She nodded at Caty.
