Chapter 1109
Eason didn’t expect Joanne to answer the phone.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally acquiesced. "Miss Winters, it was very chaotic here, and many reporters and onlookers are taking pictures. Mr. Mason fainted at the scene of the explosion, and it's hard for US to find others to suppress the news, so I hope you can ask Mr. Atherton to use his influence in the entertainment circle to control the media's spread of this matter..."
Joanne's hope had completely evaporated, and her mind was full of the word "explosion".
She sat on the ground, numb and absent-minded.
Edwin grabbed the mobile phone from her hand and listened to Eason's description of the specific situation. His empty eyes were tinged with extreme anger. "OK. I'll arrange everything and come to meet you in two hours."
"Thank you, Mr. Atherton," Eason added mindlessly.
Edwin exploded with rage instantly. "How dare you say this? Catelyn is my cousin, but you failed to protect her. Tell Ced that we're not done with this!"
After hanging up, Edwin angrily smashed the phone into the sofa...
He looked down and saw Joanne widening her watery and swollen eyes, and she was shaking all over. Actually, he had the same feeling as her. When he was about to take Joanne to bed to have a rest, she suddenly stood up and went straight to the cloakroom.
She casually put on a down jacket, a mask and hood and ran out.
Edwin was worried that her identity would cause a sensation...
In fact, the explosion at the hotel seemed more shocking.
After thinking for a while, Edwin gave up the idea of keeping Joanne at home. Instead, he went out and called his subordinates, asking them to block the news as quickly as possible.
Edwin went directly to Omille City by helicopter.
Heavy smoke billowed from the scene of the hotel where the explosion had occurred, and a large number of onlookers and journalists were gathering downstairs. The police had put up a cordon, and a dozen ambulances and fire trucks filled half the street.
As the explosion was a serious attack, the police had also set up checkpoints far away to prevent cars from passing through.
Due to this, Edwin and Joanne had to approach the hotel on foot.
The medical staff was carrying stretchers out, and deformed corpses gave off an unacceptable burnt smell. When they carried stretchers to the ambulance, one arm was exposed from under the white cloth...
Joe took a look at it, and her stomach started to roil with nausea.
She didn't vomit, but her mind was a complete mess now.
'Who is this? Could this be Cat? Cat likes to dress up, and she can't accept that she has become like this...' she thought to herself.
Edwin showed his identity, and the police officers put down the cordon and let them enter the scene.
Joanne frantically searched among the seriously injured patients, but the more she looked, the more she felt uneasy and worried.
