The air in the underground warehouse was foul. There was dust everywhere and it smelt like mold.Because there was no source of light, it was dark everywhere.Using his exceptional night vision, Neil held onto Nellie’s hand and quickly headed for the light. Behind him, Nigel was holding onto Nellie’s other hand, following closely.Behind them were the sounds of footsteps and people searching for them with a torchlight.“Quick, over here! We have to find them quickly! How dare they hurt Lady Aura and escape with the other two brats! Jake Landry, you’re dead meat!”“Lady Aura is your family. Why would you betray her for the two kids that you barely know?”“Do you know what is the consequence of betraying Lady Aura?”“Jake Landry, I know you can hear us! Quickly bring both of them back! She might still let you live!”…Hearing the commotions behind her, Nellie’s heart was about to pop out! She and Nigel were kidnapped by Aura’s men a moment ago. After kidnapping them, Aura got he
After a while, someone came out from the sewer hole.Zach and Yuri were on each side of a haggard and disheveled-looking man who was covered in blood.Luna looked at the man. Tears instantly fell from her face! The emaciated man was Theo! Joshua had led his man and found Theo! “Ma’am.” After Zach and Yuri placed Theo in the car, Zach sighed heavily. “When we found Theo, we bumped into Aura’s men. We fought for a long time...“Right now, Mr. Lynch and Lucas are looking for Neil and the rest. We took Theo and came out first.”Luna bit her lips. “Is Joshua injured?”“No.”Theo was placed in the car. He had already passed out.Luna cleaned Theo’s face. She was heartbroken. At the same time, she cocked her head to listen for any news coming from the receiver.After a while, two more figures fumbled and stumbled out of the sewer hole.It was Nigel and Nellie! Luna agitatedly rushed out of the car and hugged them in her arms.“I’m glad you’re fine!”Theo was rescued. Nigel an
With the loud explosion, the entire underground warehouse started to shake. Dust and debris were even falling from the sewer hole above Luna.Luna barely gave it any thought. She immediately carried Nellie and pulled Nigel along away from the sewer hole.They went back to stand by the car. After gaining their footing for a very long time later, the exploding sounds and quakes coming from the underground warehouse finally stopped.The explosion was intense. Even Jude’s men in the distance fell to the ground from the violent quakes. Even the buildings above ground fell to ruins.Luna looked at thick smoke coming out from the sewer hole in the distance. Her heart was in suspense.Neil and Joshua were still inside! Looking at Luna’s agitated face, Nigel furrowed his brows and comforted her, “Don’t worry about Neil. Neil will be fine. The explosion must have been done by Aura’s men. Before the explosion, she must have relocated to a safer place. “Although she’s angry that Neil betr
The man from the rescue team sighed, “Then, I need more men. I suggest you get all of the rescue team in Banyan City over. Then, find a few more experts in geology and architecture. We have to discuss how we are going to rescue the people trapped below.”Then, he added, “Of course, what I mean is to rescue the people who are still alive. Those that have died during the explosion, we can’t do anything about it.”Jude was even infuriated at how calm he looked. “If Joshua Lynch is dead, I’ll make sure that all of you die together with him! Leave!”Looking at Jude, who always used to be playful, calm, and mature, suddenly became so anxious and short-tempered, Luna clenched her fists tightly by her sides.She took a deep breath. “Jude.”Upon hearing a woman’s voice, Jude furrowed his brows. He turned around and noticed that it was Luna. He immediately showed a cheery expression.“Don’t worry! I’ve already gotten the entire city’s rescue team. I even found geologists and architects. We
The rescue effort continued throughout the night. Because some of the underground access has been blocked by the explosion caused by the rocks, if they were to slowly move the huge rocks away, it would take time and effort. They were also afraid that Joshua and Lucas who were trapped underneath the ruins would not be able to hold on for much longer.Therefore, in the end, under the advice of the experts, Luna and Jude got the rescue team to conduct directional blasting on the pathway blocked by rocks.Directional blasting was not easy. They could not create too huge a vibration, yet they also need to be enough to clear up a path. They also could not get the rocks to fly everywhere, in case they hurt the people being stuck underneath the ruins.Therefore, the entire night, all sorts of experts and rescue team members were seriously planning and executing them.Jude, with bloodshot eyes, was there to oversee and coordinate everyone. Luna was extremely anxious, yet she could not do
The headline wrote, [LIVE: The President of the Lynch Group, Joshua Lynch, Died in an Accident. Funeral in Preparation].The subtitle wrote, [Second Young Master of the Lynch Family, Michael Lynch, Grief-Stricken. Decides to Take Over the Lynch Group].Looking at those two lines, Luna was so infuriated she almost passed out! It was still unknown whether Joshua was alive or dead. Everyone was working as hard as they could to rescue them, yet Michael already went ahead and announced Joshua’s death, even organizing a memorial service. He was so grief-stricken that he wanted to take over the Lynch group? He should have just said that he wanted to quickly snatch over the Lynch group while it was still unknown whether Joshua was dead or alive! After the live broadcast, Bonnie played Luna a few other pieces of news. Each of them was of Michael crying saying Joshua had died. Some of them even had Adrian’s appearance.Adrian was facing the camera in tears, crying, “Joshua’s health was
Luna was completely stunned. Not only Luna, even Bonnie, next to her also widened her eyes in disbelief.They have never been divorced?! What about Joshua previously getting engaged to Aura and being together with Alice, then becoming Fiona’s boyfriend… Was that him having an affair while being married?Jude saw the confusion in both women’s eyes. He took a deep breath and explained, “Luna, like I just said. Six years ago, Joshua only had you in his heart. After your accident, every thought that you had died, buried in the deep sea.“Joshua might have believed it deep down, but he still refused to accept it, so he has never truly applied for a death certificate for you. He only reported you as missing. It is also because of this…your marriage has always remained.”Jude sighed, “As for the incidents after that, Aura’s engagement to him is because he wanted to take care of Aura according to your will, to get engaged with her. But, it’s only an engagement. From the beginning, Aura
Luna only took a few steps before turning around and looking at Jude. “If you can get Joshua out, get him to rush to the memorial service press conference at first notice. I don’t want to deal with such a huge matter alone.”Then, Luna strode away. Bonnie immediately followed suit. Both women got in the Ferrare and sped away. Jude stood in the same spot, looking until the car became a tiny red dot. He could not help but feel emotional.Even with all the pretensions on the surface, Luna could not hide the fact that she still cared for Joshua.Just when Jude was lamenting, a cacophony of voices came from the entrance of the underground warehouse.“We found them! We found them!”The rescue team carried two men out from the ruins. Joshua was lying on the stretcher. He was covered in dust and dirt, but fortunately, he did not suffer any injuries. He had only been underground for quite a long time, so he was rather dehydrated and deprived of oxygen.The rescue team members had alread
