Chapter 986 Do You Have a Backup Copy?
Soon, the adjacent rooms also started to catch fire, whereupon the flames lit up the night sky. On the streets, the pedestrians gasped in shock at the sight of the fire. ”There’s a fire over there. Search the area!” ”Quick! Call the firefighters!”
”No, we have to put out the fire quickly. Otherwise, the floors downstairs will be engulfed in flames. I wonder if there’s anyone in the building, though?’
As they watched the raging flames, looks of worry were written all over their faces. It was already the next day when Tessa found out about the building catching fire.
After she heard the news, she hurriedly asked the butler to prepare the car and left in a rush, even before informing Nicholas.
When Gregory knew that she was going to the orchestra, he ran after her anxiously, but unfortunately, he couldn’t catch up with her.
”That’s weird. Why didn’t Mommy take me with her?”
After all, they were always going to the orchestra together before this.
Not long after, Nicholas came downstairs and saw Gregory alone in the living room. ”Where’s Mommy?” he asked.
”Mommy went to the band and forgot to take me along,” Gregory grumbled unhappily.
Meanwhile, the fire was already extinguished when Tessa arrived at the band’s building. A lot of reporters surrounded the building as they began recounting the events. Several band members were also grouped together as they discussed the matter feverishly.
”Why did a fire break out so suddenly?”
”We checked the electrical switches everywhere before we left. So, this accident shouldn’t have happened.”
”Did we miss out on something?”
Sofia stood at the side with a solemn face as she listened to the barely restrained whispered discussions, and a few of her students were standing around with equally grave looks.
Tessa hurriedly went over when she saw Sofia and asked in concern, ”Miss Sofia, are you alright? Why is there a fire so suddenly?”
”I was told that it was caused by a short circuit,” Sofia answered curtly.
