A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 680

After hanging up the phone with Dora, Raymond picked up the car key and turned to leave the villa.

Marie stopped Raymond.

"Mr. Cordova, it's so late, and it's raining heavily outside. Where are you going?"

"You are so worried about Veronica. I'll go find her!"

"You didn't get through to her. How could you know where she went? If you insist on going out, take an umbrella with you!" Before Raymond got in the car, Marie stuffed an umbrella into his car.

Raymond glanced at the passenger seat and drove away from the villa.

The car left the villa and quickly drove into the rain, disappearing from Marie's sight.

Marie looked worriedly at Raymond's back as he left.

She hoped that nothing would happen to Veronica.

The cast on Raymond's arm was just removed a week ago. When driving, he should not use too much strength.

...

Raymond drove the car in the direction of North Mountain. The car rolled across the water and splashed water.

Because it was night, and it was raining, coupled with the mountain road, Raymond spent an hour and a half on the mountain road before he finally arrived at the foot of North Mountain.

The gatekeeper of North Mountain, Herman Blass, saw that Raymond was going to cross the protective fence of the gate and climb up the mountain. He quickly took an umbrella and walked out of the guard's cabin, shouting at Raymond.

"Sir, the mountain is not open at night. You should go back."

Raymond said expressionlessly, "My girlfriend is on the mountain. I need to find her."

"It's so late. There's no one up there. The staff searched around the mountain and found no one. Your girlfriend must have left."

Raymond ignored Herman's obstruction and walked up the mountain.

As Raymond walked, he said, "I'm sure she's up there."

Herman could not dissuade Raymond. The mountain was so big, that he could only follow Raymond with a flashlight. "Sir, slow down. I'll go up the mountain with you."

Herman followed Raymond up the mountain with a flashlight in his hand, and they climbed to the Summer Hut.

Herman saw that Raymond was going to the Summer Hut and quickly stopped him.

"Sir, you can't go to the front. It's raining, and the Summer Hut is dangerous. After going there, it's very likely that you won't be able to come out."

"She's right there. I must go and find her!"

Nowadays, young men...

Herman saw Raymond's insistence and could only give his gas mask to Raymond. "Sir, this mask is for you. Put it on. I only have one anti-poison mask. I can't go with you."

Raymond took the gas mask from Herman and looked at him gratefully. "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Come back as soon as possible. I'll give you this flashlight as well. The rain is so heavy, so I have to go back to the foot of the mountain to prevent anyone from rushing up. When you go down the mountain, return me the flashlight and gas mask."

"Alright."

Herman turned around and left for the foot of the mountain. Raymond held the flashlight and wore the gas mask as he walked into the Summer Hut.

The rain hadn't stopped. Although Raymond held the umbrella in his hand, because he had been in the rain for so long, his clothes got wet.

Raymond looked around the Summer Hut and did not see Veronica.
