Chapter 231

East Jasperia was a sprawling chain of mountains with tiny villages tucked away in its folds, elusive and tricky to find.The moment Madeline heard that, she was up on her feet, determination in her eyes. "Let's go!"She quickly looked up the village's location and decided to rent a car to get there as fast as possible.Asher, worried about her heading out alone, took time-off from the police station to join her on the journey.The mountains rose and fell in a majestic rhythm.Madeline watched as they passed peak after peak, fighting to stay cool and collected.Ever since Bella was hospitalized, the responsibility of searching for her brother rested heavily on her shoulders.She had been through that kind of search for family before. It was not really a search, more like catching a glimpse from a distance.Whether she could spot him or not, she felt compelled to go.A clap of thunder rumbled in the distance. The further they ventured into the mountains, the more ominous the sk

Madeline and Asher's journey came to an abrupt halt.A massive tree sprawled across the road, blocking their path.If Asher had not been so alert, they would have crashed right into it.Asher stepped out to check. "It's no use. The tree's too big to move."Madeline's frown deepened as she checked her phone and saw no signal whatsoever.She bit her lip and declared, "We're walking down!"Turning back was not an option. The road was blocked by a mountain of boulders.They were lucky to have just passed before getting trapped.The storm's fury was relentless.Guilt gnawed at Madeline. Her stubbornness had led to both of them being stranded on the mountain.Staying put was a death sentence.Without a moment's hesitation, Asher agreed.They donned their raincoats and began the descent.Halfway down, they came across two more fallen trees and a stopped car. Clearly, they were not the only ones opting to trek down the mountain.Madeline and Asher shared a look and pressed on.T

Chapter 233

Trevon's car reached the base of the mountain only to be stopped. No one was allowed to ascend."There's been a landslide. The mountain has been closed off."Daniel tried to negotiate, but it was futile.The officials even tried to reassure them. "People are trapped up there, but we're organizing a rescue. Please stay calm."Knowing the gravity of the situation, Daniel did not dare interfere with the rescue operations and reluctantly rejoined Trevon.Trevon, staring at his phone's lifeless signal, commanded, "Get a helicopter, and tell Liam to bring a team.""Mr. Gibson, it's too risky to send a helicopter in these conditions."Trevon's intense gaze bore into him.Madeline's last known location was on that mountain, and she was surely stranded.Learning of the landslide and the closure, Trevon was frantic.If Madeline had slipped up, they had to beat the clock to save her.He knew he should not get in the way of the rescue teams, but he just could not stand by and do nothing

Chapter 234

Madeline quickly came to her senses and stepped back. "Sorry."Caleb was about to wrap her in a protective embrace but instead let his hand drop with a gentle smile on his face. "No worries. That thunderbolt scared me too."He helped Madeline out of her soaked raincoat and into a dry jacket as he spoke.Madeline, who had been shivering with cold, finally started to feel a bit of warmth. She smiled gratefully and said, "Thanks, Caleb."Caleb just gave a small shake of his head.Asher watched the two of them curiously.Madeline had casually mentioned she was married, but Asher had never seen her husband. The way that guy was looking at her made it clear that he was not her husband.That look in his eyes, though...Asher knew that look. He had been there in his own youth. Some things were understood without words.He sighed to himself, knowing it was not his place to comment. Pulling out his phone, he tried once more for a signal, but no luck. With a resigned shrug, he pocketed t

"How did it go? Did you find the rescue—"Her words hung in the air, unfinished.It was not Caleb who stood before her. It was Trevon.Madeline's relief shattered into confusion.Why on earth was Trevon there? Was she so chilled to the bone that she was seeing things?Then, as the guy with the trademark long strides walked into the shelter, and that rugged, frosty face came into view, Madeline knew she was not hallucinating.It was actually him.Her lips tightened, and she barely managed to part them to speak when suddenly, Trevon pulled her into a fierce hug.He held her so close.Madeline could feel the steady thump of his heart against her, a lone beacon of warmth in the icy rain of the night.Her hand, hanging limply at her side, twitched, but she did not hug him back.After what felt like an eternity, she let out a soft sigh. "Why are you here?"Trevon finally released her, his voice tinged with a chill. "Didn't you see the weather report? What were you thinking, headi

"What the hell?"Madeline tried to peer out at the jacket but Trevon yanked her back.The window zipped shut in an instant."You!"Trevon met her glare with a cool shrug. "That jacket's fabric is too delicate, and it's toast if it gets wet. It'd be useless to keep it.""You can't just toss it! It's Caleb's, not yours to throw away.""I'll just buy him a new one. No big deal."Madeline was so mad she could bite him. It was not about the money! Did Trevon even get the concept of common courtesy?With an annoyed click of his tongue, Trevon whipped out his phone, found Caleb's contact, and sent him two hundred thousand dollars.Caleb texted back. [?]Trevon replied, [Your jacket. Consider it bought.]Caleb and Madeline sighed internally.The drive back from Jasperia took over an hour. Madeline was on her feet all day, plus the stress of the mountain had worn her out. It was not long before she dozed off against the seat.Trevon slipped off his own jacket, draped it over her, c

Chapter 237

Why was Madeline treating him like he was contagious or something?!Trevon did not even register the sting on his cheek. He was annoyed at her scooting away like that.He closed the distance again, pinning her beneath him. "You're the one who got close. Why are you trying to escape?"Madeline's eyes went wide again. "No way!"How could she have been the one to make a move?However, thinking back to the dream she had before waking up, she was not so sure.She had seen his face in her dream, the kind of face that could totally mesmerize anyone.She might not dare to do it in real life, but in a dream? Who knew what she would do?Oh, no! Did she actually make the first move?Madeline bit back her frustration. "I was half asleep, so it doesn't count. Now, get off!"With that, she tried to shove him away with her legs.However, Trevon caught her movements and pulled himself even closer.Their position was awkward and suggestive.Madeline's cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red:

Chapter 238

When Madeline woke up the next day, the sky was still a gloomy gray.She lingered in bed for a moment, feeling the chill in the air as she threw off her blanket. Autumn rains always brought a fresh cold air.Redenbaugh City was deep into fall, with winter nipping at its heels.She put on an extra layer and stepped out of her room.In the living room, Trevon was engrossed in some paperwork.Madeline did not immediately catch what he was reading until he lifted the papers."Is this what you were busy with yesterday?"She snapped to attention and quickly went to grab the documents from him. "Who said you could go through my stuff?"Trevon did not stop her. He had already seen what he needed to."Is this about your brother?" he asked, looking at the contents.Madeline's face was tinged with sadness as she gave a small nod.Trevon's heart sank a little. "You never told me you had a brother."Madeline's eyes dropped. What was the point in bringing it up?She made trips to Jasper

Trevon squinted. Something about the style seemed oddly familiar.Madeline caught his look and quickly snapped the laptop shut."Let's head out."Trevon raised an eyebrow but did not press for details, simply following her out the door.When they got to the office, Trevon pulled Danielaside and got straight to the point about the photo. "I don't care how they do it, but they need to reconstruct that face, and fast."Daniel nodded. "Got it."He was about to reach out to Asher himself when he caught Aurora and her crew huddled up, buzzing with excitement over something."Hey, isn't it work time? What's with the huddle?"The group jumped, guiltily stashing their phones away.Aurora flashed a sheepish grin at Daniel. "Oops! Sorry, Mr. Harris. We're on it. Back to work!"They tried to scatter, but Daniel wasn't having it. "Hold up. Let's see those phones."With reluctant glances, they handed over their phones.Daniel's eyes landed on the image they were ogling at. It was the che

Chapter 240

Madeline might have been fuming on the inside, but she knew that the Skylandia team had to go with what was best for the project.Sure, it felt a bit like a betrayal, but technically, the contract did not say her work was best suited for the video production.[So, who's the artist behind this scene? I'm dying to see it.]Aaron could not show her the artwork, but he did not hide who was behind it.[It's Lydia.]Madeline had a hunch it was her.Lydia's speed was unreal. She had only been back a few days and had already whipped up a scene sketch that was top-notch.The girl had talent, no doubt.She thought Lydia was supposed to be slowed down by her early pregnancy.Aaron clarified, [It's just a draft, but the team took one look and thought it was pretty awesome.][Got it. I'll catch up later.]Madeline's scene sketch needed more work, but with a few more hours, her draft would be done.Aaron saw her cool response and let out a silent sigh of relief.[Thank you, Miss Mora.]
