Boom-
As the scream rang out, an explosion echoed.
In an instant, the banquet hall erupted into chaos.

I instinctively protected my abdomen, but as I tried to escape, I f
myself in a familiar, warm embrace.
“Frank-”
The smell of something burnt flooded my nostrils, and another explosion sounded, people scattered in panic, creating more chaos.
“Oh my God, it’s sulfuric acid!”
The screams around me heightened everyone’s fear.
People fled in a frenzy, crowding me and Frank so we couldn’t move.
Christine was like a madwoman, completely disregarding the crowd.
Some were splashed, causing even more uproar.
Just as I saw Christine rushing towards me, in a critical moment, Alan pushed through the crowd and restrained her.
But he was also burned in the process.
“Charlotte, are you okay?”
I forced myself to stay calm. “I’m fine, quickly take Frank to the hospital!”
Prof. Kilburn and Dr. Travis also arrived and got into our car.
After we rushed Frank to the emergency room, I felt dizzy.
“Charlotte!”
Jane, who had come running, steadied me.
I hadn’t noticed her safety earlier and was about to check on her when I suddenly heard her scream,” Doctor-”
I lost track of what happened next, overwhelmed by the cacophony around me.
Everything went black, and I fainted.
When I came to, I realized I wasn’t in the hospital.
I immediately placed my hand on my abdomen.
12 weeks in, and while it wasn’t showing, I could still feel the baby.
I sighed in relief, got out of bed, and surveyed my surroundings.
It looked like a room on a cruise ship.

Before I could make sense of things, the door opened,
1 instinctively pulled the blanket over myself, and when the person’s face came into view, I was horrified.
“How come it’s you?”
At the hospital.
Frank was stabilized and out of danger, but his back had serious burn
I would likely scar.
However, that wasn’t the most serious issue today.
“Have you found her yet?” Jane was pacing anxiously. “I saw her enter the emergency room, how could she just vanish?”
Zachary had already sent people to investigate, and Alan was handling matters despite his injuries.
