Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 97

I was woken up by the phone in the middle of the night. I was too tired that I picked up the phone and answered it without looking at the caller ID.

“Hello!”

“May I ask if you are Dennis’s wife, Clara?” The voice on the other end of the phone is very formal.

I responded and subconsciously looked at the time on my phone. It was already two in the morning. How could anyone call at this time?

“You are...?”

“Hello, Miss Kennedy, Mr. George encountered an accident on the P International Airlines H898 flight from Newton Town to City P yesterday. He is currently being treated in the People’s Hospital in City P. Please come over. We require his family members signature!”

I abruptly sat up straight from the bed, my mind was buzzing, an airplane accident? How could it be…

For a while, I didn’t know what was going on in my mind. I didn’t know what to respond to the other end of the phone, so I just acknowledged.

I was lost for a moment. I trembled as I tried to find Dennis's contact to call him. However, his phone was still turned off despite multiple call attempts.

I called Mario but I didn’t know if it was too late hence no one answered. It was the same for Marcus.

Over concern could blow things out of proportion.

I called Olivia instead. Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the phone to be connected.

On the other end of the phone, she was crying with tears, “Clara, where are you? Dennis got into an accident. Hurry come over!”

“What’s happened? Where is he?” I pinched my palms to calm myself down and asked.

“He originally sent me over. When the plane made an emergency landing, he wanted to protect me, so...” She cried loudly, “My parents have also entered the emergency room. The hospital asked you to sign the papers. I was wrong. I will never fight with you again. As long as he is alive, I would do anything...”

I didn’t listen to her later words. I didn’t think it was necessary.

After I hung up the phone, I felt uncomfortable about it.

I was no longer drowsy after all that had happened. After getting out of bed and walking around a few times, I had calmed down, I called Diana.

She didn’t answer so I called Luis afterward.

Unexpectedly, that man answered, “It’s three in the morning. Clara, don’t tell me that you miss me hence you’re calling at this hour.”

“I want to ask, where is Mr. Thomson now?” I didn’t trust Olivia, so...

“In the evening, she and Samuel flew with Olivia to the capital. By the way, your man also seemed to have gone too.” He probably hasn’t slept. There was still a bit of clarity in his voice, and I could faintly hear the sound of a keyboard through the phone.

I frowned and suppressed the emotions in my heart, “Did she call you from City P to report her safety?”

“Why would she do that?” He raised his voice, “I’m nothing to her, what’s there to report for?”

“I mean your mother, Luna. Did she reply to your message. Are they safe?” In this group, I know a limited number of people so I could only ask Luis.

He was typing on the computer and said, “For more than 20 years, she has never taken the initiative to talk about anything with me, let alone such trivial things. You called in the middle of the night, are you going to ask something?”

“I received a message saying that the plane they were on had an accident. Can you check it for me?” At this time, only he could find out.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then he said, “Ok, let me check it out!”

He hung up the phone, and I could only wait patiently.

I left the bedroom and headed downstairs, Dennis was not there so I felt a little empty and turned on all the lights in the villa.
