Chapter 212
Conrad’s expression instantly changed. He quickly instructed his wife to get him his raincoat.
“Miss Pond, I’m going to check on them. All of you stay here for a while.”
Seeing his serious expression, Silvia nodded. “Alright. Be careful, Mr. rk.”
Without another word, C
onrad put on his raincoat and left with the mall.
Silvia and the others had originally nned to return once the rain subsided. However, the rain
persisted throughout the night, and Conrad never came home.
Meanwhile, news of the heavy rainfall in Greenvale became a trending topic online.
Following an entire night of heavy rain, the residents of Greenvale awoke in the morning to discover
that the streets were flooded. Water levels reached half a meter, and public transportation, including
subways and buses, came to aplete halt.
When Neil saw the news, he immediately called Silvia. However, her phone had been switched
off.
He quickly summoned Curtis to his office with a solemn expression. “Prepare a helicopter. I’m heading
to Greenvale.

Curtis was visibly shocked, and he said, “Mr. Remus, it’s still raining heavily in Greenvale, and there
have been reports ofndslides in several ces. Going there is too dangerous!
“Even if you manage to get there, there’s no guarantee that you’ll find Miss Pond.”
Neil red at him and said, “Stop talking and do as I say!”
“Mr. Remus!”
“Get the helicopter ready right away! Don’t make me repeat myself!”
Half an hourter, a helicopter slowly ascended from Remus Corporation’s rooftop. Neil then headed to
Greenvale.
Meanwhile, in Ten Miles Vige, several houses near the foot of the mountain were already flooded.
Conrad and the vigers quickly helped them move important items to higher ground. Everyone had a
serious look on their faces.
They had never seen such heavy rain and had no idea how long it wouldst. It was as if the dark and
gloomy sku
would swallow everything like a ck hole.
Silvia and the others were sitting by the window and looking out at the rain with different expressions. It
was still heavy, and their phones had unfortunately run out of batteryst night.
Eva appeared worried as she said, “I wonder how long this rain willst. Is this area going to flood as
well?”
Evelyn Johnson, Conrad’s wife, prepared breakfast and brought it over. When she heard Eva’s
concern, she reassured her. “Don’t worry, Miss White. The terrain here is high, so the flood won’t reach
us.”
Despite what she said, Evelyn could not hide the concern in her eyes either.

Just as they were about to have breakfast, a drenched man hurriedly approached them. “Mr. rk is
injured. Mrs. rk, please go and check on him.”
Evelyn’s face turned pale “Where is he?”
“He’s at Mr. Jefferson’s house.”
Evelyn rushed into the rain. Right before the man followed her, Silvia suddenly said, “I’ll go with you.”
Her words left everyone staring at her in shock.

“Miss Pond, the flood is rising. If you go out there, no one can take care of you, so it’s better to stay
here. It’s safer.”
“I’ve learned some basic first aid, and I can help Mr. rk with his wound.”
Andslide had blocked the road into the vige sincest night. Hence, it was impossible to get
Conrad out for medical treatment.
“Alright, then. Come with me.”
“You two, stay here. Joe, please take care of Eva if anything happens,” Silvia said as she looked at Eva
and Joe.
Joe nodded. “Don’t worry, Miss Pond. I’ll take care of her. You need to be careful too.”
Silvia did not say anything else and followed the man.
They soon reached Mr. Jefferson’s house. Conrad had identally sl*pped and scratched his leg on a
branch while helping the vigers move their belongings. Although the wound was not deep, the cut
was quite long. He was bleeding profusely, so it looked serious.
Chris was providing first aid to Conrad. It seemed he had brought the first aid kit along since the
vigers would not typically have one.
Silvia crouched down beside him and said, “Let me handle it.”
He was surprised to see her. “Why are you here?”
