Sweet Divorce

Three hours later, in the Country M, walking on the thick snow, Liam searched carefully and slowly step by step.

“Liam, a guy from the hotel told me that they haven’t found her.” Jacob’s voice sounded behind him, informing him of the latest news.

Liam held the alpenstock more tightly.

She was not found yet.

The temperature on the mountain was already minus 15 degrees, which meant that a person must suffer from frostbite and may even die.

And Rita’s still there…

Thinking of Rita’s sufferings, Liam’s face turned cold and stern.

“Give me a tracker.”

Jacob took out and handed two of the trackers to him immediately.

Liam asked Jacob to prepare some trackers before they climbed the mountain to cope with the blizzard and the possibility of getting lost in case of emergency so they could be rescued instantly by those who were staying at the foot of the mountain by the accurate location from the tracker if they were in danger.

Liam put the tracker into the pocket and made his decision,

“Now we are in need of more searchers and the search for Rita is not wide enough. So we must be divided into groups to be more efficient.”

“How?” Jacob looked at him confusedly.

“I am one group. You and the driver are another group looking for her towards the west.”

Hearing this, Jacob bit his lips, “No way. The blizzard is so dangerous that you cannot be alone.”

“Jacob…”

“I want to be with you.”

Before Liam replied, Jacob stood by him in a second.

Liam refused seriously, “No. You can’t! Lee is too old. You must keep him safe.”

“…”

A moment later, “Let’s ask someone to come here as his partner. Then you and I are ...”

“That will waste a lot of time. Rita cannot wait.”

Liam gave his rejection determinedly before Jacob told him the whole plan.

Jacob was stupefied. He understood that to Liam, his beloved Rita was the most important and Liam was worried about her very much.

Staying with him for so many years, Jacob was sure that Rita was the only girl whom Liam cared about.
