Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 685

"I don't want to give up halfway." Evan gave Avery a pot of water, "Before there is no other way, we need to find Vanda."
Avery nodded to show her approval. Now that they have come here, it's a pity to retreat. What's more, it would only take more than three hours to reach the destination.
Evan brought a towel to help her wipe her hands. There was dust over her clothes.
Avery pulled the curtain open. There was only a car left, so Android drove it fast. Perhaps, he also wanted to find Vanda quickly.
As they approached the desert, the color of the sand on the ground gradually turned white, and the car became more and more ramshackle.
Due to relatively soft sand, the car would sink into the desert if Android drove the car carelessly.
Fortunately, Android was quite familiar with the terrain here, so that they didn't take a lot of detours.
It was getting dark. The afterglow of the warm sun was shining on the off-road vehicle.
The car bypassed several eerie shapes of huge dunes. Android was experienced, and anything could be easily solved by him.
Soon, they arrived at a group of beautiful lakes surrounded by the desert. If it hadn't been for Android, they wouldn't have found it.
Android pulled up and got out of the car.
At this time, it was dark. A full moon hanging in the sky illuminated the lake.
"Are you sure it's in this place?" Avery got out of the car and stepped on the soft sand. Through the moonlight, blue lakes were clear. Swarms of water birds flew over the water, and precious fish swam in the water.
It's like a paradise.
It was as if only this place could produce the precious plant of Vanda.

Evan got out of the car and stood next to Avery. The state of mind of Evan was totally different from that of Avery.
The beauty of the place was alarming.
"Where's Vanda?" Avery did not want to enjoy the beautiful scenery. She has been thinking of Vanda, turned to see Android, and found him taking off his clothes.
"Why are you taking off your clothes?" Evan pressed Avery into his arms to prevent her from seeing other undressed men.
"He wants to go into the water."
"Vanda grows in the water?"
"Perhaps."
Sure enough, Android jumped into the lake.
"Is there any danger in the lake?" Although the lake was very clear, it was deep. Android has dived in for more than ten minutes.
The grasses beside the lake moved, and there were still some indistinct sounds.
It's the sound of horseshoes on the sand.
Avery became nervous. Someone was coming!
"Get in the car first!" Evan pulled her into the car.
"Android." Avery looked at the lake, where there was still no movement.
"Android, come up!" She didn't want to leave him here alone.
"Get in the car! Come on!" Evan was a little impatient because the footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Soon, the fire was blazing all around the lake.
The whole lake was lit up as the men on the horses surrounded them with their torches in their hands.
They were dressed in white robes and headscarves. Even though they were sitting on the horses, it could be seen that they were very tall and strong.
Avery took a breath. Fortunately, they were not the people who have been hunting them down.
As they drew nearer, one of the men on the horseback spoke, "Princess, we are here to pick you up."

Avery, "..."
Princess? She's the only woman here, and she was the only princess. Were they talking to her?
Avery had changed her dress and appearance. Could they still recognize her?
"Who are you?" Evan did not relax his vigilance because they were respectful to Avery, but he was more alert.
From the dress and the appearance, these people were like foreigners, but they were strangers to him.
"We are from Ancient Country, and our president has sent us to meet the princess of B Country."
"Who is your president?" Avery might not have been so surprised if they hadn't known she was the princess of B Country. The president of Ancient Country knew she was disguising herself and that she was the princess of B Country.
This was worth questioning.
"Our president says you don't have to know who he is. He says that if you go to see him, you will know all the answers, and..."
Before the words were finished, suddenly ahead sprang out of the lake's surface, "Fuck. It's gone."
Android hit the water hard. From the reflection of the water, he saw torches.
He looked up in amazement and found they have been surrounded.
"What's going on?" Android was dumbfounded. He has dived into the lake for only about twenty minutes.
Then he realized that his upper body was still naked and immediately crossed his hands to block the important part of his chest, "Who are they?"
His question was not important, so Avery did not answer him, but asked, "Did you find Vanda?"
"Shit, I don't know who took it. It was here half a month ago."
"Princess, our president, asked me to tell you that Vanda is with him, so please come with us."
"..."
It seemed that the president knew not only her identity but also what they were here for.
The men had immediately surrounded them when they had arrived at the lake.
They were well-prepared.
"What if we don't go?" Avery shook her head. They have been hunted down all the way. As long as they had a profitable purpose, how could she easily go with them?
"You are smart and will come with us." The man spoke unhurriedly. The torch in his hand was burning in the wind.
Avery looked at Evan, "Can we rush out of them?"
Evan darkened his face and said seriously, "We can have a try."
"Get in the car!" Avery said to Evan and Android.
Hearing Avery's words, Android dressed quickly and got into the driver's seat.
