Johanna and Beal had been staying in Seacisco ever since they learned of Janet’s accident. They devoted all the time and resources possible in search of their beloved daughter.

Johanna couldn’t sleep or eat, knowing that her daughter was still out there missing.

In just three days, the radiant Johanna had grown haggard, aging her several years.

The rescue team still couldn’t find Janet, so they simply put up tents on the shore and took turns resting. In the end, Johanna couldn’t take it any longer and was about to get on a ship to search for Janet herself, but Beal stopped her.

Hearing this, Johanna wrung her hands anxiously. “What a series of unfortunate events! How about I go to the hospital to check on Brandon now? I don’t know if anyone’s taking care of him now.”

Beal forced a smile and wrapped his coat around Johanna. He too was exhausted after days of nonstop worrying. “No need. Just wait here for the rescuers’ news. I’ll send my assistant to check on him.”
