    Chapter 1491 Do Not Panic


    The next day, Johanna hailed a taxi to the high-speed railway station after leaving the residential area.


    She nned to make two dresses for Asel as a birthday gift. However, after returning homest night,


    she remembered that Asel was fond of animals. So, she decided to prepare an even better gift for her.


    Sadly, the carpenter had retired a few years ago. As such, Johanna could only visit him to see if he


    would be willing to ept her order.


    After arriving at the train station, she did not have to wait long before she had her ticket checked and


    got on the train.


    She had only brought a backpack as she nned to return on the same day. After finding a seat, she


    settled down and fished out her phone, only to see a photo Timothy had sent her about two minutes


    ago.


    In the photo, Asel sat by the dining table, feeding herself with a fork. She looked adorable and well-

    behaved.


    Along with the photo, Timothy texted: Asel has be quite fussy recently. She only allows you to


    feed her or wants to eat by herself. I tried to feed her some oatmeal this morning, but she didn''t like it.


    She probably doesn''t love me anymore.


    Johanna chuckled and replied: It''s a good thing she wants to eat by herself.


    Timothy: Asel has been moring to eat pork belly. Since I''m not busy today, I''ll bring Asel to meet you


    at noon. Let''s have lunch together.


    Johanna: I probably won''t make it back by noon. How about we do it tomorrow instead?


    Johanna had just sent the message, and Timothy called right after. “You can''t make it back to


    Jadeborough? Where did you go, Jojo?”


    Sensing the anxiousness in his tone, Johanna could not help butugh. “I was thinking of crafting a


    music box for Asel. But the master has closed his shop for several years, so I thought I''d visit him...”


    She was casually chatting with Timothy when the high-speed train was suddenly brought to a


    screeching stop. In the next second, the lights in the cabins went off.


    Johanna got shocked when her vision went ck. Like others, she almost let out a scream. But when


    she looked out the windows, she realized it was dark and gloomy, and vaguely, she spotted a heavy


    downpour.


    As the signal in the cabin was lost, her call with Timothy was automatically disconnected.


    Amotion ensued in the train cabins, but within a few minutes, a steward hurried over to calm


    everyone down. “Please stay calm. Andslide up ahead has blocked the railway track. The sudden


    brake resulted in a minor train malfunction. The engineer is working on repairing the fault right now. We


    kindly ask everyone not to move around unnecessarily.”


    As Johanna was in the first-ss cabin, there were fewer passengers around. Many settled down after


    hearing the steward''s words.


    When the steward scuttled to the back, the automatic door opened, and Johanna heard panic-stricken


    voices echo out from behind, iming that they could not make calls and left wondering if they were


    doomed.


    She had seen news of simr idents involvingndslides. Despite so, it was beyond her expectation


    that she would encounter such a rare event since she rarely took high-speed trains.


    The repair was time-consuming, and since there was no venttion in the train cabins, coupled with the


    removed her sweater, but she still felt so warm that her back and forehead were all covered in sweat.


    The location where the high-speed train stopped had no vige or shops in sight. Adding onto how it


    was pouring heavily outside, the train stewards could only cate those passengers who were insisting


    on getting off.


    Johanna was feeling a little suffocated, and at that very moment, a steward rushed to the cabin and


    asked, “May I know who Ms. Johanna Joules is?”


    Convinced that she heard her name, Johanna briskly walked up to the steward and asked in surprise,


    “It''s me. Is anything the matter?”


    Noticing her paleplexion, the steward asked anxiously, “Did you not bring any medicine along?”


    Johanna was bewildered. What''s wrong? Why is the steward looking for me? Before long, a tall figure


    strode toward the cabin where she was at.


    The man was drenched from head to toe. In his hand, he was carrying a waterproof travel bag.


    “Darling, I''m here. Don''t worry.” Timothy pulled out a nebulizer from his travel bag and handed it to


    Johanna.


    As he moved closer to Johanna, he whispered, “I told the steward that you have asthma and didn''t


    bring your medication, so I''m here to deliver it. Pretend to take a puff.”
