Chapter 1929
For the next two days, Jared was in a constant state of going in and out of consciousness.
When he regained clarity on the third day, he finally realized something was off.
If Nicole was fine... She would have visited him!
He immediately wanted to get down from his bed.
At the same time, Max entered the room. "Mr. Johnston, what are you doing?!"
Jared frowned at him. "I want to see Nicole."
Max was stunned, but he did not know how to start.
Jared knew something was not right. "What happened?!"
Max knew that he could never hide it from him forever, but Mr. Johnston Sr. ordered him to hide it from Jared as long as possible.
So, he said, "Mr. Johnston. I think it's best if Mr. Johnston Sr. told you..."
He really did not know how to tell Jared.
Jared froze. "What happened? Tell me! Now!"
Jared got dizzy as soon as he was agitated, so he quickly laid down on the bed.
Max knew that he could not hide it anymore.
At the same time, Mr. Johnston Sr walked in.
Following behind him were Nicole's parents.
Jared immediately felt that something was wrong when he saw Gloria and Daniel.
Gloria's eyes watered when she saw Jared.
"Jared... You're alright?"
Jared tried his best to stay awake when he saw how emotional Gloria was. "Mrs. Riddle, what brings you here...?" he asked.
Gloria looked at Mr. Johnston Sr.
When he nodded, she gradually started explaining, "I'm just here to ask... What happened when you and Nicole fell from the airplane?"
Jared frowned. "Why are you asking this? What happened?!"
Daniel looked at Jared, pained. He did not hide it from him and said, "Nicole is... missing."
Jared's mind went blank.
His instincts told him that his grandfather was hiding something from him.
But he did not expect it to be Nicole being missing!
At that moment, his heart shattered into pieces.
"No, it can't be. Nicole would never..." He and Nicole... They won.
Even if their plane crashed, he survived! How could Nicole go missing?
Daniel could not bear to see Jared being in so much shock. "I find it hard to believe too... But it has been two weeks. Zane had already sent people out to the sea to search for her but to no avail."
Daniel would never lie.
But what shocked Jared was...
The fact that he was unconscious for two weeks.
The amount of time he was unconscious was the amount of time Nicole was missing!
"Impossible!" Jared could not hold himself back anymore. He was going to get down from his bed. "It's impossible! I'm going to find Nicole!"
Mr. Johnston Sr. quickly got Max to hold Jared down when he saw that Jared had lost control.
"Mr. Johnston! The Marines are on the search! They couldn't find her!"
With this line, Jared completely froze.
'Even the Marines couldn't find Nicole?'
'How is this possible?'
"I have to see her body to believe she's dead!" Jared roared through gritted teeth.
Mr. Johnston Sr. felt the same.
"I agree, that's why Mr. Riddle and I have never stopped searching for her. But we couldn't find anything... Mrs. Gloria has been waiting for you to regain consciousness so she can get something out of you when you're in a more stable state."
