Indeed, she was shivering from the cold, but leaning against Tristan’s warm chest, Monica hadpletely lost the fear she experienced from the brush with death. All she felt now was relief and sadness… thinking of ire, she was heartbroken. The rain continued to fall, and Tristan couldn’t help but quicken his pace.
It was winter, and the river water was icy and bone-chilling. Tristan was soaked through as well, but he seemed to be immune to the cold. He just didn’t want her to catch a cold. Monica put her arms around his neck, and Tristan nced down at her, “I really didn’t check the almanac before we set out.”
Narrowly escaping death should have been a cause for celebration, but ire’s whereabouts were unknown, and everyone’s mood remained somber. She leaned against him and couldn’t help but remember how Tristan held herst night. Compared tost night’s joy and happiness, Monica felt a sourness in her nose and wanted to cry, “Is ire dead…?”
Tristan’s pace quickened, and he didn’t answer her question. Holding her in his arms, he walked through the wind and rain towards the inn, one step at a time! He stared ahead, his cold eyes as dark as an ancient well. How could there be such a venomous-hearted woman?
In the morning, Rowan gathered the courage to call Finnley, apologizing and then telling him about ire’s disappearance. “What?! Missing?” Finnley was in the Marsh Group’s president’s office, “How could someone just go missing? Wasn’t she found overnight?”
Not far away, Ivan Marsh looked up from his office chair, “…” Who was missing?
Rowan, who hadn’t slept all night, kept apologizing on the phone, his spirits a bit deted. “I understand,” Finnley couldn’t bear to me him, “I’lle over right away. Send me the specific location.”
“Who’s missing?” Ivan Marsh asked Finnley after he hung up the phone.
“ire went to the ancient town with Dr. Watson. He just went to the restroom and when he came out, ire was gone.” Finnley quickly typed on the keyboard to save and organize the urgent files.
Ivan Marsh’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately closed hisptop, got up, and said to Andrew, who had just entered the room, “Prepare the helicopter. Leave thepany matters to you. I’ll take these urgent documents to the finance departmentter.”
“Yes.” Andrew didn’t know what had happened yet. He immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number, “Prepare the aircraft.”
As Finnley got up, Jennifer entered the office with a document in hand. Ivan Marsh and Finnley were rushing out. “Where are you going?” She saw the urgency in the two men’s faces.
Finnley nced at Ivan Marsh before telling Jennifer about ire’s disappearance in the ancient town. “What?” Jennifer couldn’t believe it, “ire is missing? Why are you only being informed now?”
And it happened yesterday?! What was Rowan doing? “Dr. Watson just told us,” Finnley walked quickly towards the exit, “Keep it a secret from my parents for now!” He was afraid the elderly couldn’t bear the news.
“Wait! I’ll go with you!” She handed the document to Andrew, turned around, and chased after them.
So, Ivan Marsh, Jennifer, and Finnley, along with a professional search and rescue team, hurried to the ancient town by helicopter! The ancient town was shrouded in misty rain, and the drizzle continued to fall. It seemed like a forgotten corner of the world.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
