Cu the other side, Michael had been at Paramount Airlines for the past couple of days as instructed by Admas
Ethan barged in, placing several boxes of expensive health supplements on the table.
“Mr. Shawn, these are the ones you ordered before.”
Last time when Ethan mentioned that Chloe was prone to getting angry due to menopar of health supplements, which had just been shipped back from overseas today.
“Who is this staff suitable for?” Michael inquired
Ethan besitated for a moment, puzzled by the question
He thought,
talking about menopause, right? What age group could it be?”
Michael immediately placed an under for a bunch
Realizing he wouldn’t get a clear answer from Ethan, he waved Ethan out and dialed Chloe’s ber
She picked up quickly, but all Michael could hear was the rumble of a tractor in the background.
“Where are you?”
“None of your business!” Chloe retorted.
Michael’s grip on the phone tightened. “If you don’t tell me, I’ll find out myself. The result will be the same anyway.”
Chlos, busy helping villagers move things, had no time to argue
“In Jakfiode, very busy, gotta golf
Michael didn’t manage to ask why she was in Jaldiode before she hung up
Checking the news, he discovered that there had been a sudden earthquake in Jakfiode just three hours ago, with a high probability of altmhocks
He didn’t understand why she was there
“Let’s go, to Jakhode,” Bichael said to Ethan
Ethan, who had just come into discuss the need for signatures on some departmental plans, was taken aback
He thought, “Whart
Why Jakliode?”
On the way.
Ethan drone while monitoring real–time reports from Jakliode.
Michael sat in the back, his expression gloomy.
“Mr. Shawn, are we going for earthquake relief?” Ethan asked.
Michael replied, To find Chloe.”
Ethan was shocked, thinking, “Hour could Mrs. Shaven be in Jakfiode, especially in the village where the earthquake occurred?”
Suddenly, a news update announced another aftershock in Jakfiode
Michael, feeling the car shake, urged, “Drive finster!”
Chilo was still assisting with rescue efforts when she felt the world spin around her.
She looked up to a landslide coming down the hall.
Reacting wiftly, she grabbed Candy’s hand and ran for their lives along with others.
However, a child’s cry caught he attention.

“Chloe!”
Candy was surprised and tried to follow, but got jostled by the crowd and fell behind by a few seconds.
The little girl seemed to have tripped and had a scrape on her knee.
“Don’t be afraid, I will get you out of here…”
Just as they took a few steps, a cracking sound startled Chloe..
She turned to see a wall collapsing nearby.
“Chloe, move, it’s dangerous!” she shouted.
Chloe froze for a moment before turning her head to look over at Candy.
Frozen in fear, Chloe couldn’t budge, recalling the near miss with a car before.
Suddenly, a figure lunged towards her, tackling her to the ground.
They rolled several times amidst the debris, just as the collapsing wall crashed down where Chloe had stood moments a
The roof hit the ground, walls shattered, revealing sharp steel reinforcements inside.
Chloe lay sprawled on the ground, still feeling a bit shaken.
She lowered her gaze and saw the person she had inadvertently pinned down.
Michael’s features were contorted in discomfort.
Worse yet, she had managed to land directly on his still–healing arm.
Her heart skipped a beat, and Chloe quickly rolled off him.
“Michael, are you okay?”
