Jay arrived at the area and gave orders for a chopper t o rescue the people trapped in the middle of the fire.

He then went into the scene of the fire and guided the panicked visitors out in an orderly fashion.

John was also following orders, yet he scolded him," Jay, you're mad. You have a death wish! How could you personally come in and give orders? Whose life here is more important than yours?" However, no one knew what Jay was thinking as he rushed into the sea of flames.

"What are you looking at? Do you have a death wish?" John snatched the hose from a fireman nearby and sprayed it at Jay.

Soon, Jay emerged from the inferno while carrying someone on his back.

Thick smoke blanketed the scene.

John escorted him out of the area.

After 40 minutes or so of burning, the blaze was finally put out.

Jay gave instructions to John on how to deal with the aftermath. "Investigate the source of the fire, which guests resided in rooms affected by the fire, and also... Catch that arsonist," said Jay as he ground his teeth with that sentence.

John quickly agreed, his gaze falling upon Jay's back. In the gap of the damp blanket, John realized that the woman was Nancy Bell.

Soon enough, doctors from various departments in Grand Asia Medical Center came together to discuss Nancy's prognosis.

"Mr. President, Miss Bell has lost consciousness because she had taken in too much carbon monoxide. Other than that, we've managed to obtain an unknown substance from inside her body... Perhaps, this may also be related to the cause of Miss Bell passing out."

Jay felt uneasy, his gaze turning to look outside the window.

"Save her... Right now!" He left immediately after saying that.

It was pouring the entire night. 1

In the end, the heavens favored genuine people. Zayne found Rose unconscious at the gates of Tourmaline Estate at dawn.

"Rose?" Zayne rushed over and held her in his arms, frantically screaming her name over and over again.

"Rose, wake up."

Josephine stood near them as she looked at Zayne who was unable to contain his worry for her sister-in-law. She felt a sting in her heart.

"Zayne Severe, don't tell me that you like her?" said

Josephine as she walked over, a hint of jealousy in her voice.

Zayne was stunned. He did not want Josephine to misunderstand him, thus he promptly denied. "How could I? I was asked by your brother to... No, your brother forced me to do it, so I had no choice but to search for Rose and take care of her."

"Oh?" Josephine was happy again.

"Rose..." Jay suddenly appeared on the streets, sprinting over when he saw her.

He embraced Rose from Zayne's arms and carried her into the house.

Zayne was stunned and followed them unconsciously. Josephine suddenly grabbed his arm. "Zayne, now that my brother's back, you don't have to worry about Rose anymore. Let's go."

Zayne looked at Josephine's face which had a hint of rage, sighed quietly, and left. Although, he looked behind him many times as he walked away.

After closing the faucet, Jay carried Rose in his arms, dipping both of their ice-cold bodies in the hot water.

He treated her like a treasure.

The lukewarm water slowly enveloped his cold heart.

He slowly calmed down as he felt her breathing become more rhythmic and constant.

Due to his intense motions, Rose awoke from her slumber and opened her eyes to see that Jay and herself were in the tub...

She screamed.

"Ah!"

Although her voice was bright and loud, his lips curled into a smile.

"Where were you last night?" he asked.
