Let's Get Married novel Chapter 611

Ryan holds the walkie-talkie in his hand. Cold sweat breaks out on his palm. He has no idea what is happening there. He doesn't hear Dalton's voice anymore but the hurried footsteps.

Half a minute later, people staying in the van with Ryan look at each other, but no one dares to speak.

Time slowly passes. Ryan has never sweated so much before, as if he has just been pulled out of the water. His throat seems to be clenched tightly by a pair of hands, and it is difficult for him to breathe.

He wants to ask what happens, but fear chokes his words.

A bad premonition seizes him, and he doesn't even have the courage to ask.

After a long time, the captain's voice finally comes from the other side. It is hoarse, anxious, and frustrating....

"Dalton and Eunice fall off the cliff. Have the rescue team come up immediately! Scour for them at the foot of the mountain!"

Hearing this, Ryan seems to have been fixed to the spot. He feels too limp to hold the interphone, which then falls to the ground, as if all his muscles disintegrate in an instant.

Ryan's mind goes blank and he can no longer hear anything. He cannot believe what he has heard. The thing that he has been worried about for two days still happens. What he doesn't dare to imagine takes place.

How does it feel?

Ryan is unable to describe it. He feels his blood surges into his throat. For 30 years, this is the first time that he is so confused, at a loss what to do.

The police officer beside Ryan is afraid that something will go wrong with Ryan, so he comforts Ryan in a trembling voice, "Mr. Ryan, this mountain isn't high, and Dalton hasn't climbed to the top. Even if Eunice falls down, she may not be in trouble. We've already arranged some policemen to look for her...."

Ryan closes his eyes tightly and opens them a few seconds later. He tightly clenches his hands on his knees. Eunice hasn't been found, so he must not give up.

Eunice said before that she left with Dalton's people in order not to make Ryan sad. However, Ryan understands now that if something bad happens to Eunice, he will be more painful than ever.

...

As all the police is searching the place where Eunice falls, Ryan applies to join in the operation. The captain knows that Ryan has been pushed to the limit. Moreover, it is not uncommon for hostages' family to get involved. Thus, the captain asks two police officers to protect Ryan.

Ryan and his group members search from below. After taking a look at the steep hillside, which is covered by a lot of vegetation, Ryan becomes anxious and worried uncontrollably.

Eunice falls down from above. There are so many stones and branches. Even the slightest impact can cause fatal damage.... Ryan looks away and has no guts to think further.

The search continues for a long time. From the foot of the mountain to the cliff, there are a total of three teams. Ryan is on the top, the area closest to the cliff.
