Stuck in you

Jack got into the car and began scrolling through his messages,

all of which were about the incident in the neighboring province.

Unlike the news on the Internet, most of these messages containing pictures and videos were sent to him directly from on-site,

and they were far more shocking.

Jack clenched his phone anxiously as he tried to assure himself that nothing would happen to Rachel and that she couldn't have gone to such remote places.

However, the fact that he had yet to receive any update from the hospital made him feel afraid that something unexpected would happen.

Just when he was about to board the plane, he finally received a call from the hospital.

"Mr. Fu, Rachel and her team members went to the site yesterday morning to administer first aid. However, we haven't been able to get in touch with them since..."

Jack was so shocked that the rest of the other party's words were drowned by the ringing in his ears.

After a few seconds, he finally came back to his senses and heard the person say, "We have just found her. She is being sent to the hospital for emergency treatment..."

Jack's face turned deathly pale, and he was so overwhelmed with panic that he had to hold onto the armrest on his seat to steady himself. When he glanced at the time and realized that there was still ten minutes left before he could board the plane, his heart dropped.

He took a deep breath before he asked, "How's she now?"

The other party was silent. Only a moment passed, but it was enough to turn Jack's limbs cold with fear.

"Please tell me," he prompted again, raising his voice.

"Don't worry. The site is chaotic now, so we couldn't get any details. But we'll know soon."

"Okay, thank you. I will see it in person when I arrive," Jack said before hanging up.

He looked out through the glass windows of the waiting hall and saw the sun shining brightly.

About an hour later, when Jack landed in the capital city of the neighboring province and stepped out of the flight, he found that it was dark overhead.

The ground of the airport was wet and slippery. Due to the weather, many flights had been delayed or suspended.

The contrast between the weather in the neighboring province and that in Ninwell City was so huge that Jack felt depressed when he looked up at the sky.

When Tracy learned that her son had left, she was relieved. She tidied her clothes and arrived at the restaurant earlier than the appointed time.

As soon as she walked in, a waiter led her into a private room.

The young woman seated inside rose to her feet at once.
