To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 Dr. Walter Is a Good Person

It was 9 pm at Faust Mansion. Alec came home early, which was a rare occurrence. He had wanted to take a good rest in bed, but a bad hunch plagued him. He had a feeling that something terrible was going to happen.

He took out his phone to call Jenny but was reminded of Vincent’s words. Jenny was in a village with no phone service, so it was impossible for his call to go through. Filled with anxious energy, he hopped out of bed and went to the balcony.

Suddenly, his phone buzzed incessantly, prompting him to rush back to his bedroom to take the call.

“Mr. Faust, we just got the news of a huge earthquake in Elmwood District. Clearwater Village, where Miss Walter is posted, is one of the epicenters. The entire village has lost contact with the outside world,” Vincent reported in a great hurry.

An earthquake? Looking pale, Alec forced himself to calm down. “Get the helicopter ready. Bring medicine and aid supplies. We’re going to fly there.”

“Yes, sir.”

After the call, Alec’s heart pounded wildly. He finally found the source of his unexplainable worry.

Alec climbed aboard the helicopter at the heliport, and Vincent joined him. “You don’t have to go with me, “Alec said. “Go to Claymond City instead and prepare the aid for the earthquake. Bring your satellite phone with you and wait for my orders.”

“But Mr. Faust, your safety is-”

“Enough!” Alec cut him off. “Keep this from Grandpa.”

Everyone knew that saving each missing person was mission impossible, but they had to try for the possibility of a miracle. The chief nodded, but he shook his head soon after. “Dr. Walter, you shouldn’t go. I’ll have someone get you the supplies. You’re from the city. I don’t want anything to happen to you here in

the village.”

“Let’s not talk about that right now.” She shook her head. “We don’t have enough pairs of hands. The women should take care of the kids and the elders here. The others will head out to search for the victims. But please look out for your own safety because the aftershocks will strike at any time. Let’s save as many as we can while keeping your safety as the top priority.”

The chief looked at Jenny. Feeling complicated, he reminded her, “Sure, but you have to be careful.”

“You too.” She nodded at him and ran toward the clinic. As she disappeared into the night, the chief teared up. “Dr. Walter is a good person.”
