Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 421

After Felix listened to what I had to say, he told me calmly that since it was a major incident, his parents had the right to know. Besides, he needed to discuss it with his family, so he asked me to give him some time.

We agreed to call each other after ten minutes before we hung up.

Queenie and Andrew looked at me with an incredulous expression. They must have assumed that I was a naive, spoiled princess. Moments ago, I was a wailing wimp. Hearing me relaying everything to Felix clearly and interrupting him boldly twice must have changed their view of me.

I shrugged. "Colin is in danger. I can't be a crybaby anymore. I must stay strong."

Then, I called Professor King to ask if he knew that Colin had encountered a mudslide.

He told me that he was about to call me, but I had reached him first. He had seen the news and learned about the mudslide in Lagado. He then told his superior about the disaster and Colin's loss of contact. The school held an emergency meeting and decided to send out a team to aid the rescue effort.

Based on the current information, Colin was at the school. Together with him were a few volunteer construction workers who were rebuilding the school, including females. There were no death reports for the moment.

Fortunately, the mudslide was not a serious one. It did not affect a lot of places, so the chances of survival were quite high.

My heart sank deeper and deeper into an icy pond following every word Professor King uttered. Tears blurred my vision again.

I knew he said those words to console me.

But Mother Nature was powerful. Humans were insignificant in front of the destructive force of nature.

I didn't have it in me to imagine what I should do if Colin died. I could only hope that Colin was still alive. That was my only wish. I wanted him to be alive.

It did not matter if he was blind or crippled. As long as he still breathed, I would take care of him my whole life.
