Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations
Chapter 1405: Unexpected Situation
Ian Shelby and Jocelyn Morgan withdrew their gaze, exchanged a smile, and continued to stride forward.
The scenery here was exceptionally beautiful. The forecast showed cloudy weather, but the sky was a gray hue, giving off a misty southern charm, as if standing within a traditional ink painting.
Yes, the one who is abandoned is actually the luckiest, because they will meet someone who truly appreciates them and treasures them, allowing them to realize their full value.
The Maybach drove towards the ancient town, gradually leaving behind the city’s clamor, and moved onto a mountain road that was neither too wide nor too narrow.
The car windows were closed, the temperature of the heater just right, and the girl in the passenger seat actually fell asleep.
Trevor noticed and appropriately slowed down the car.
Worried she might catch a cold, he pulled over, parked stably at the roadside, and carefully covered her with a blanket from the trunk.
Standing by the passenger seat, he gently tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear, half bending over, observing her closely. Trevor felt an inexplicable sense of peace in his heart at that moment.
Closing the car door, he returned to the driver’s seat and started the car again.
About a minute later, Trevor noticed the sky had noticeably darkened, with a foreboding of an impending storm.
He looked up at the sky, where dense dark clouds loomed, with a fierce wind howling, visibly shaking the tree branches.
It was indeed going to rain.
The mountain road wasn’t particularly rugged; once around this mountain, an elegant and quaint town awaited on the other side.
If the road and weather conditions are good, they might reach there in an hour.
But almost the next second, a downpour began, raindrops the size of beans hammered on the car, making chaotic noises.
The girl frowned, opened her eyes.
In her view was the dense rain mist on the car window, the splashes on the hood, and the almost invisible mountain road ahead while feeling the car speed noticeably decrease.
"Why did it suddenly start raining?" She turned her gaze to him, feeling incredulous.
Trevor suddenly slammed the brakes, the car which wasn’t going fast now came to a stop.
As if he saw something, his face turned solemn, and he didn’t answer her question immediately, just staring ahead in shock!
Janelle Mills also heard the unusual sound, she turned her gaze forward, her pupils wide with panic, "A landslide?!"
The next second, Trevor decisively started to reverse the car!
The heavy rain continued to pour, the surrounding wind howled fiercely, branches swayed wildly, as if nature suddenly turned its face.
Janelle’s heart tightened along with it! Her little hands clenched into fists!
Trevor’s fingers tightened suddenly around the steering wheel, his expression changed instantly!
There was no way to turn around here, and the torrential rain severely obstructed the view, but Trevor remained calm, controlling the car speed expertly.
"..." Janelle didn’t dare speak, didn’t even dare to breathe! She watched the landslide inch toward the car, inch by inch, any mistake could mean being buried!
She was extremely terrified, clenching her hands tightly, silently praying!
At this moment, a massive noise came from not far behind the car! Startling both of them!
Through the rearview mirror, they vaguely saw rocks and soil cascading down the mountain! It was a sheer deluge!
"Ah!" Janelle instantly became restless, she turned sideways, harbored a strong premonition that today, they would die here!
Trevor’s heart also skipped a beat heavily, he slammed on the brake! They couldn’t reverse any further!
The car stopped stably, but... both the front and rear roads were blocked! And the safe zone was shrinking rapidly, feeling like a pincer attack!
"What do we do now?!" Janelle’s heart was about to jump out, her eyes filled with unprecedented fear!
