No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 796

"Sorry, the person you're trying to reach is currently unavailable."

On my way to Tranquil Haven, I dialed Conrad's number multiple times, only to hear that same automated message.

My heart sank. He had been spending most of his time at the Silent Wisdom Temple recently, and now he wasn't answering. I couldn't help but fear the worst.

I needed to reach him not only out of concern but also to find out about any casualties.

Yet, his phone remained unanswered.

As I pressed harder on the gas pedal, I called Allen.

His mother was at the temple too, and if something had happened, he wouldn't be so calm about it.

"Sorry, the person you're trying to reach is currently unable to take your call."

Allen declined the call, which only increased my anxiety.

Could it be that Mrs. Clark was in trouble too?

Despite having faced many challenges, at that moment, panic crept in. Whether it was Conrad, Mrs. Clark, or anyone else, I didn't want anything bad to happen to them.

As chaotic as my thoughts were, I couldn't help but wonder why the temple had caught fire as I drove towards Silent Wisdom Temple.

Was it an accident, or was it intentional?

Or maybe the fire was meant for me?

If it hadn't been for Fanny asking me to accompany her to the Perez family's celebration, I would have been up there too, not knowing if I'd be safe or harmed.

Considering what I possessed was of interest to others, it wasn't out of the question for them to resort to drastic measures. If it was indeed them, how could they endanger innocent lives?

Lost in thought, I finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, where the air was thick with the smell of smoke, and I could see gray plumes rising from the hilltop.
