My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 819

Chapter 819

“Hurry! All fire engines are to head to Imperial Hotel right now under my lead!” The fire chief slammed his walkie-talkie on the table in anger. “Let's go now!”

It was midnight as dozens of fire engines sped along the road blaring their sirens.

At the same time, Ashlyn got into Lucas' Bentley. The latter floored the accelerator, and the vehicle disappeared into the night.

Glancing at her phone, Ashlyn decided to call someone.

A while later, someone answered the phone sleepily. “Hello, who is this? It's so late at night.”

“Zero.” Ashlyn's cool answer was like a bucket of cold water that splashed onto Quiet Forest and woke him up instantly.

Quiet Forest was wide awake now. “Zero? Seriously? Aren't you a guy? Why do you sound like a girl? Am I hearing things?”

“Don't you know about the existence of voice changers?” There was no time to waste, so Ashlyn went straight to the topic. “A huge fire broke out at Imperial Hotel. I know you have extensive connections, so can you help to contact the fire departments from the neighboring cities? Imperial Hotel is a tall building, and the fire is spreading quickly. I'm afraid the fire department in Lake City can't put it out alone. This is very urgent and I've never asked for your help previously—”

Before she could finish, Quiet Forest cut in, “Young man... Well, young woman, contacting the fire department is an easy job. Don't worry. I'll do that right now.”

“Thanks,” Ashlyn replied curtly and cut the line.

Without further delay, Quiet Forest began contacting the fire departments from the neighboring cities.

After that, he suddenly realized that Imperial Hotel sounded familiar. Isn't it a famous hotel? Why did it suddenly catch fire? Why is Zero so anxious and worried?

He grabbed his jacket and strode out of his room.

No one knew that Quiet Forest lived in Lake City.

The Bentley screeched to a halt before Imperial Hotel's entrance.

The fire chief was busy leading the firefighters to rescue the victims trapped inside the burning building.

At the sight of the flames devouring Imperial Hotel, Ashlyn felt her head buzz as it threatened to explode any minute.
