The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2272

I followed the security officer down the mountain and was relieved after seeing him dial the number to the rescue team.

After hanging up the phone, the security officer told me that the rescue team should arrive in 15 minutes at the latest to start a blanket search.

I nodded and sat down.

"Wanda, you look very pale. Why don't you go eat something first?"

It was already 8:30 in the evening, yet I had not eaten anything. I could not eat at all. I had no desire to.

I shook my head and looked at Delia. "Where's Munchkin?"

"He's in the room. Don't worry."

"That's good." I took Delia's hand. "Thank goodness you're here so that Munchkin has someone to look after him."

She smiled at me gently, "Don't worry, President Grant and Harriet will be fine. The rescue team will also be arriving soon. They'll definitely be found." "Yeah."

I was unable to do anything now but wait.

It did not take long for the rescue team to rush over. They were fully equipped, and after learning about the situation, they immediately went up the mountains.

Time passed, but there was still no good news.

I wiped my face, and my tears would not stop falling.

No, I could not waste my time being sad. I had to go check it out.

I could rest assured that Munchkin would be taken care of by Delia.

I knocked on the door to the security guard's room and pulled him out of his sleep. "Madam Grant, the rescue team is already searching. Don't worry, we might get some news tomorrow." "No, I want to look for them too, so take me there."

The security officer sighed. "I know

you're anxious, but there are professionals involved in this. Let's not cause any trouble and let them conduct the search carefully. Please rest. He closed the door after he said all that.

If he would not bring me there, then I would head over myself.

I prepared some things, carried my backpack, and went ahead.

Standing at the entrance, I gulped.

Perhaps I was really being impulsive. I did not know the way. If I were to go up like this, I would only add to the rescue team's trouble. If I get lost too, the consequences...

Thinking of this, I stopped in my tracks.

However, should I just wait like this?

OUMS

While was thinking this over, a familiar voice suddenly reached me. "Are you planning to go up like this?"

I turned around. "Marius, why are you here?"

"This is my hometown. I came back for a visit," Marius pursed his lower lip and responded slowly.

"Joen is your hometown?" I always thought he was a native of Whaldorf City. I did not expect him to be from Joen.

Marius nodded. "I'm not a stalker. I

just come here every time I visit. I heard someone got lost in the

mountains this time and that the et

person was named Grant. I thought I'd learn more about what was going on really didn't think it'd be you guys."

"You're a local, so you must be very familiar with the place. Marius, can you take me to look for Theo? I really can't wait here for news from the rescue team. I can't bear it."

I looked at Marius pleadingly. He met my gaze. I realized all of a sudden at that moment that his eyes were firm. "You're really worried about Theo."

"Yes, and he's with Harriet. That worries me even more."

Marius stared at me. His sunny visage had suddenly turned dark as his eyes narrowed slightly. "Alright, I'll take you up if that's what you want." "Really?"

"Yeah, you go ahead. I'll be right behind you, keeping you from getting lost." Marius turned to the side and motioned for me to go forward.

I sniffled, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst from my eyes. "Thank you."
