Chapter 819
“Hurry! All fire engines are to head to Imperial Hotel right now under my lead!” The fire chief mmed
his walkie-talkie on the table in anger. “Let’s go now!”
It was midnight as dozens of fire engines sped along the road ring their sirens.
At the same time, Ashlyn got into Lucas’ Bentley. Thetter floored the elerator, and the vehicle
disappeared into the night.
ncing at her phone, Ashlyn decided to call someone.
A whileter, someone answered the phone sleepily. “Hello, who is this? It’s sote at night.”
“Zero.” Ashlyn’s cool answer was like a bucket of cold water that sshed onto Quiet Forest and woke
him up instantly.

Quiet Forest was wide awake now. “Zero? Seriously? Aren’t you a guy? Why do you sound like a girl?
Am I hearing things?”
“Don’t you know about the existence of voice changers?” There was no time to waste, so Ashlyn went
straight to the topic. “A huge fire broke out at Imperial Hotel. I know you have extensive connections, so
can you help to contact the fire departments from the neighboring cities? Imperial Hotel is a tall
building, and the fire is spreading quickly. I’m afraid the fire department in Lake City can’t put it out
alone. This is very urgent and I’ve never asked for your help previously—”
Before she could finish, Quiet Forest cut in, “Young man… Well, young woman, contacting the fire
department is an easy job. Don’t worry. I’ll do that right now.”
“Thanks,” Ashlyn replied curtly and cut the line.
“Thanks,” Ashlyn replied curtly and cut the line.
Without further dy, Quiet Forest began contacting the fire departments from the neighboring cities.
After that, he suddenly realized that Imperial Hotel sounded familiar. Isn’t it a famous hotel? Why did it
suddenly catch fire? Why is Zero so anxious and worried?
He grabbed his jacket and strode out of his room.
No one knew that Quiet Forest lived in Lake City.
The Bentley screeched to a halt before Imperial Hotel’s entrance.
The fire chief was busy leading the firefighters to rescue the victims trapped inside the burning building.
At the sight of the mes devouring Imperial Hotel, Ashlyn felt her head buzz as it threatened to
explode any minute.
Jared dashed out of the hotel, covered in ashes. “Boss!”
He was stunned to see Ashlyn. “Did you get hurt?”
Ashlyn arched a brow and responded, “I’m fine. How are things going inside?”
“All the employees are still inside. There are many customers in the VIP guest rooms on the VIP floor.
The receptionists on the first floor have been rescued.” A few strands of Jared’s hair were charred, but
he still looked as handsome as ever.
Jonathan scurried over hastily, d in his pajamas. He couldn’t be bothered about his image as an idol
anymore. “Ashlyn, my fans! My fans are inside!”
He was going to hold a birthday party a few dayster, so many of his fans traveled across the country
to be with him. Fear gripped his throat when he learned that some happened to stay in Imperial Hotel.
Lucas stood beside Ashlyn, his tall figure blending into the night sky. He was talking on his phone.
“Follow my orders. I, Lucas Nn, shall bear all the responsibility alone.”
Ashlyn was about to ask what he had in mind when he suddenly strode to the building opposite the
hotel.
“Lucas? What are you doing?”
“Honey, since Imperial Hotel is important to you, I shall help you to protect it.”
Having said that, he ran into the building across the street.
Five minutester, the whirring sound of nes sounded above Ashlyn.
Surprised, she looked up to see several nes circling above Imperial Hotel.
It was pretty dangerous formercial nes to fly this low.
Her eyes widened when she saw a helicopternding on the rooftop of the building across the street.
Lucas…
The helicopter soared into the sky. When both nes were parallel, a tall man with long legs climbed
down the helicopter’s ropedder as the fire raged beneath him.
