Chapter 94


    "Except for my legs, which still hurt a bit, everything else is fine," Raine said.


    "When Jazz and I arrived, we heard that the child, whom you saved earlier, was all right. She is now


    sound asleep."


    "Good to know." Raine breathed a sigh of relief.


    Meanwhile, Mark looked at Summer with his eye narrowed.


    "There are quite a lot of empty rooms over there. You all can stay for the night. Just watch out for


    aftershocks." Raine looked at them with concern. She had been in aa for so long and did not know


    many aftershocks there had been.


    No one should underestimate the danger of aftershocks, especially when it urs at night, during


    which most people are asleep.


    "Don''t worry about us, Aunt. We all are aware of the danger," Jazz said.


    "All right. You all just have to be careful." Raine coughed. She was still frail.


    It was during this time that Ronald and his secretary arrived.


    While Mark gave Ronald a nod of acknowledgement, Jazz walked over and put his hand on Ronald’s


    shoulder. "Hey, Dad, you are still so good-looking after so long."


    "You are still honey-tongued after so long. Look how settled and steady Mark is."


    "One staid guy is just nice; two make a boring pair." Jazz shook his head dismissively.


    Letting out an I-can''t-even smile, Ronald looked at Summer and started sizing her up. "This is..."


    Summer bit her lips, not sure how to respond.


    She just could not call him Dad and tell him she was his daughter-inw straight away, could she?


    While she was hesitating, Mark came to her rescue. " She is Summer Hart, my wife, your daughter-in-


    Ronald chortled. "I have asked a stupid question."


    Summer could sense Ronald''s indifference toward her. She did not know what to say, and might as well


    not say anything. So she just smiled politely.


    "How is the situation now, Ronald? Are the emergency supplies and rescue team in ce?” Raine


    asked.


    Ronald’s expression became serious. “The supplies have arrived, but they are barely enough. The


    rescue team is on its way. You haven''t recovered yet, so don''t think too much. People have started to


    get a good handle on the situation."


    He paused before he continued. "There are some empty rooms. Omar will take you all there. I just


    dropped by to check you out. I have to leave now."


    So Mark and Jazz saw him out, and the rest of them remained in the ward. Summer gave Raine some


    mushroom soup and helped clean her face.


    It was not until Raine fell asleep the three of them left with Omar Ellis, Ronald’s assistant.


    It was a ten-minute walk from the hospital. The rooms were basic but clean, equipped with a kitchen, a


    bathroom, and all the essential.


    But because of the earthquake, there was no heating i n the room. So it was cold.


    Summer poured herself a ss of hot water and held i t in her hand to keep warm.

    Meanwhile, Mark put aside his coat, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently kneaded his forehead with


    his hand.


    He had not slept for two days, his head feeling heavy.


    His bloodshot eyes and tired face told Summer that Mark needed a sleep. “Sleep if you are tired. I am


    going out for a while."
