Facade of Love Novel novel Chapter 366

The cableway stretched over a cliff that was a good two hundred meters high, with a thick forest and sheer cliffs below. Just peering over the edge was enough to make your legs turn to jelly.

The cableway had hit a snag, and all the cars in the middle had ground to a halt. It looked like there were twenty or thirty of them, all just hanging there. The people inside were freaking out, screaming their heads off.

I could hear the terror in their cries even through the glass of the cable cars as they hung there, suspended in the air.

Down at the entrance, a crowd of tourists had formed, some of them scolding the staff, demanding they figure out what went wrong and get to rescuing those stuck. A few were even filming the whole mess on their phones to get their perspectives. Some were throwing shade, while others were just piling on the misery.

Emily's voice was urgent. "Liam and Ash are on the cable car too!" My heart raced as I scrambled to find an employee to get the lowdown. However, before I could utter a word...

A piercing scream ripped through the crowd. "Why is the cable car door open?" someone yelled, panic-stricken.

A chill ran down my spine. I looked up to see the doors of a cable car hanging midway on the line flung wide open. Then, a shadowy figure, gender indiscernible, plummeted from the open doorway.

Pandemonium broke loose. Shouts and screams filled the air as the scene descended into mayhem.

Relatives of those still on the cable cars below were freaking out. Some lashed out at the staff, who were trying to keep everyone calm, their anger turning to desperate pleas for help.

Without a second thought, I dialed 911, then immediately rang Idris. The phone barely rang before he answered, his voice a calm anchor in the chaos, "Yvette, where are you?"

"At the entrance to the cableway," I blurted out. "Idris, someone just fell, and Liam and Ash are still up there. They are..."
