Chapter 1235
After the two came down from the mountain, as expected, it rained heavily.
It’s getting dark.
It’s only three o’clock in the afternoon, and the sky is dark, as if the end of the world.
Ben Schaffer looked at the rain that was constantly beating on the car window, and his eyes were wet.
It’s summer, and the body was exposed to the wild, and within a week, it’s completely decomposed. There was such a strong rainstorm now… let alone a week, after today, the remains would definitely be completely destroyed.
When the phone rang, his emotions pulled away from his grief. He took out his phone and reached out to wipe the tears from his eyes.
He answered the phone, and Avery’s voice came from the other side: “Ben Schaffer, where are you? Have you found the news about Elliot? I just got off the plane, and I’m going to find you now.”
“You’re staying at the airport. Don’t move, I’ll pick you up.” Ben Schaffer quickly adjusted his mood and began to think about how to settle her.
If Avery was told of Elliot’s car accident on the mountain and her body could not be found, she would definitely collapse.
……
Avery stood at the gate of the airport, looking at the pouring rain in front of her, feeling restless in her heart. She never dared to think about what would happen if Elliot really died.
But now, looking at the sky that seemed to be falling down, she couldn’t restrain her pessimism and frustration.
If Elliot is really dead…what should she do…
In her heart, there was no answer.
“I don’t want him to die either.” Ben Schaffer’s strong reason was instantly disintegrated, “But is this something we can’t do if we don’t want it? Avery, you are not a child anymore, not everything can happen according to our wishes.”
Avery’s eyelashes trembled and tears rolled down. She was startled by his roar.
After a while, she made a hoarse voice from her throat: “He… is gone?”
“This is the situation I have at the moment. Elliot fell from a mountain of thousands of meters with people and car, and he didn’t survive. Possibly. I won’t let you go to that mountain, it’s too dangerous. Elliot has already had an accident, if you have another accident, what will happen to your children?”
Ben Schaffer said here, tightening her wrist hold.
Avery burst into tears and her faith collapsed. She didn’t cry like Ben Schaffer imagined, nor was she heartbroken to find Elliot’s body.
Because after a brief silence, her body softened and she fainted.
