Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1791

The business partners were observing closely as well.

The atmosphere at the site was incredibly tense.

Today's drone flight test was the most crucial. If anything went wrong, all their prior efforts would be completely wasted.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, their hearts in their throats.

Those short thirty minutes felt like centuries.

Finally—

When the last drone crossed the designated boundary, successfully extinguished the burning fire, and returned to the starting point.

The test flight concluded perfectly.

Kurt took off his headset, turned to the partner's representative, and asked directly, "Are there any other issues?"

"Of course not." The blonde executive shrugged and smiled. "It was absolutely flawless. When can we sign the contract?"

"If you don't mind, right now," Kurt said, pulling out the pre-prepared contract with a smirk. "Because I want to head back early to see my wife."

"Wife?" The partner's eyes widened in surprise. "Kurt, I hadn't heard you were married."

"It's only a matter of time." Kurt signed his name with a flourish. "We've been roughing it in these mountains for days. Can we head back now?"

The conditions were harsh. The crew had arrived full of energy, but after a few days of grinding, they all looked like wild men.

The partner signed and extended a hand. "A pleasure doing business with you."

"Likewise," Kurt replied, shaking it.

With all the work wrapped up, the group began their journey back.

Halfway down the road, a staff member suddenly warned them that strong winds were expected in the next thirty minutes.

"Thirty minutes?" The partner frowned, looking helpless. "The terrain here is treacherous. We won't make it to a safe zone in half an hour."

They had been keeping an eye on the recent weather.

Even with strong winds, it shouldn't be too dangerous.

"Mr. Schwartz, should we—"

*Bang—*

Just as the staff member was asking for directions, the car in front suddenly slammed on the brakes.

Immediately after, someone yelled, "Oh no, there's a landslide!"

Looking up, loose rocks were tumbling down from above.

"Keep driving, don't stop!" Kurt's expression changed as he urgently directed the convoy to evacuate.
