A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 988

At the very next instant, John watched as stewards in the hotel appeared on the floor and knocked on every door, crying, ’There’s a fire in the banquet hall! Please leave your room with us immediately for evacuation!”

As their voices echoed repeatedly, the doors opened. Everyone was in shock by the unexpected fire.

The banquet hall was on the first floor, and the fire there might have spread upstairs if it was bad enough-if the firefighters could not stop the fire in time, naturally.

Nonetheless, the walkway was a sight of confusion as the guests ran out of their rooms.

“What’s going on? Why is there a fire? What if it spreads up here? Are we going to die?!” someone asked loudly.

The scene was even more confusing.

However, one of the hotel staff quickly calmed things down. “There’s no need for panic! There’s a fire escape that goes straight outside, and you just have to follow our directions. The firefighters have already been informed. They’ll stop the spreading fire soon and keep everyone safe.”

“Well, where’s the fire escape? Let’s go already!”

“This way, sir!” The staff members began to evacuate the crowd in a tense but orderly manner.

At the same time, John had already returned to the hotel room and scooped Nana off the bed.
