Broken Vows and Buried Twins novel Chapter 218

"It's Jett Kane!!!"

"Ahhh! Oh my god, it's really him! What is he doing in Coralton City?!"

"Jett, I love you! Look at me! Jett, we love you!"

Deafening screams from frantic young girls echoed through the entire arrivals hall.

It finally clicked for Hester—the guy she had sat next to on the plane had just been recognized by his fans.

People always talked about how terrifying celebrity fanbases could be, but seeing it in person was a whole different story.

Forced to choose between 'rescuing her phone' and 'not getting trampled,' Hester instantly chose the latter.

She practically threw herself against the far wall, putting as much distance between herself and the rabid mob as possible.

Jett Kane was a tall, athletic guy, but even he was trapped, unable to move a single inch through the crush of screaming girls.

His manager, Rona Rhodes, was desperately trying to act as a human shield, but she was completely outmatched by the sheer hysteria of the crowd.

Neither of them had anticipated running into hardcore fans in Coralton City, so they had absolutely zero security detail with them.

Thankfully, airport security arrived quickly to establish a perimeter.

With the guards' help, Jett and Rona finally managed to break through the mob and escape the terminal.

Hester stayed glued to the wall until the fanatic crowd finally dispersed. Only then did she let out a long breath, instinctively placing a protective hand over her stomach.

Thank God she was safely in her second trimester and the pregnancy was stable. A shock like that could have been disastrous.

Once her heart rate leveled out, she started scanning the floor for her phone.

An airport employee walked up to her, holding out a device. "Ma'am, is this yours?"

Hester took it and did a quick check. The screen protector was completely shattered, but the phone itself seemed functional.

She offered the worker a polite smile. "Yes, it is. Thank you."

"Don't thank me. A gentleman picked it up during the rush. He said he saw you drop it and asked me to return it to you."

Hester frowned slightly.

She remembered that split second during the stampede when someone had grabbed her arm to keep her from falling...

She had a strong suspicion of who it might have been. She glanced around the terminal, but didn't spot anyone suspicious.

Her phone buzzed in her hand.

It was Ms. Crane.

Hester answered, pulling her suitcase toward the exit doors. "Hi, I just made it out of baggage claim..."

...

It wasn't until she slid into the passenger seat of Ms. Crane's car that Hester completely relaxed, letting out a heavy sigh.

Ms. Crane eyed her playfully. "What's with the heavy sighs? Did you not have fun in Riverton?"

Hester smiled wryly. "Riverton was fine."
