Zendaya was still in Charles’ car, and there was no confirmation of Gwendolyn’s situation yet. Cedrick was not going to say a word about it, nor was he going to let Zendaya head to the dangerous Orchidbay Tunnel.

In a calm voice, he said, “She’s fine. I’m going to pick her up. I don’t want her to get anxious from waiting, so I drove a little faster than usual. You should take Zendy to the lab to rendezvous with Nico and Benny first. Otherwise, the four squadrons of military vehicles behind you will be too eye-catching and will affect the other vehicles around us.”

Wisely, Charles did not press on the matter. “Understood.”

After the call ended, Cedrick soon noticed that no cars were after his from the rearview mirror. It was likely that Charles had gotten off at the nearest expressway to change his destination to the lab.

Stepping onto the accelerator, Cedrick sped his way to Orchidbay Tunnel.

Please be fine. Please…

His eyes were bloodshot as he repeated that again and again in an attempt to calm himself down.

Raindrops silently pattered on his car window, seemingly reflecting the angry roars he wished he could voice out loud.

The drizzle from the gloomy sky grew heavier and heavier.

In just eight minutes, Cedrick’s vehicle arrived at the scene in Orchidbay Tunnel.

Two trucks had turned over, so the traffic was congested. Traffic police had already set up a cordon so that the other vehicles could bypass the current lane to avoid worsening the accident site.

When Cedrick arrived, the entire tunnel was covered in dust.

The fire truck, the ambulance, and the traffic police were all there.

A moment later, Swain arrived with the police.

“Boss, I’ve already asked around for the details. There is a total of eleven victims in this accident. The two truck drivers passed away on the spot, and there were two other drivers who the medical staff were unable to save. Four have sustained severe injuries, and two have sustained light injuries. There’s a child too, but they’ve only sustained a little scratch because they had been protected well during the accident. There aren’t any signs of Mrs. Jenson.”

Cedrick dug his fingers deep into his palms and glared at Swain with bright red eyes. “Gwendolyn’s signal disappeared in this tunnel. This entire place has been sealed off, and yet, I neither see her nor the Jenson family’s car. Tell me, where can she possibly be?”
