"Mike, stop ringing the doorbell." Ben stopped him. "She must have not slept much the night before. Let her sleep in! If she wakes up, she will surely cry again."
Mike stopped ringing the doorbell. "You haven't slept much too, right? Do you want to head back to your room to rest for a while? Get the bodyguard to take me to the place of the accident and I'll have a look."
"I'm not going to sleep. Every time I close my eyes, I can hear Elliot telling me to save him. I feel anxious. I really want to save him, but I'm helpless! If Avery's feelings for Elliot have not changed, she must be even more upset than me."
"Then, let's wait for her!” Mike said, "I'll call Chad to let him know I've arrived safely."
"Okay."
After Mike left, Ben took his phone out. He planned to call the international search and rescue team he had contacted the night before.
They had made a deal the night before. The team would rush over that night, and they would be there in the early morning to start their search.
The week after an accident was the most crucial time. After that period, the chances of survival of the injured would reduce significantly.
In fact, they did not need to wait for a month. Usually, in half a month, if they could not find the injured, it was basically conclusive that the injured was dead.
Ben had not expected the search and rescue team leader to contact him.
He immediately took the call.
"Mr. Schaffer. There is a woman here who insists on going with us on the search. We can’t possibly take her with us. What if something happens to her? We can't bear the responsibility."
Ben was alarmed. "Who is this woman?"
"She said that she is Elliot's wife! I don't care who she is, we will not take her! She looks like she is suffering from a fever. She needs to leave this place soon!"
Ben's expression darkened. He said sternly, "I understand! I'll come over right now!"
Mike heard Ben's voice. He immediately hung up and walked over. "What happened?
"Avery went up the mountain. The rescue
team said that she insists on going with them. This should not happen!" Ben said ;b "?WNX: strode to the lift.
Mike slapped his head. "I knew that she was not in the room, or she would have opened the door after I rang the doorbell! Something has happened to Elliot. If you can't even fall asleep, how do you expect she would!"
