He was also concerned about Adrian Walyon’s safety and spoke with good intentions.
Adrian Walyon, as a married man, has a wife and child waiting for him at ho. How could he not return ho at night?
Moreover, Lorraine Hughes is also on the mountain!
No matter if Sumr Sutton knows about this, Adrian Walyon’s principles wouldn’t allow him to do such a thing.
"No need." With a casual remark thrown to Father Hughes, he took strides in the pouring rain towards where the car was parked.
Lorraine Hughes saw this and grabbed an umbrella reserved for guests by the resort to chase after him.
"The rain is too heavy, there could be falling rocks on the mountain, the road is slippery, and it’s hard to see in the rain. The mountain is really unsafe in this situation." She reminded him as she walked.
She tried to shield Adrian Walyon’s head with the umbrella, but he stepped away from it.
Adrian Walyon seed as though he hadn’t heard her words, continuing on his way.
Braving the rain until he reached the resort entrance, he bent down to get into his car without lingering at the scene, started the car and was ready to leave. As he passed by Lorraine Hughes, he suddenly stopped the car.
Turning his head to look at her outside, Adrian Walyon’s gaze was cold, "My phone is lost. It has nothing to do with Miss Hughes, right?"
Lorraine Hughes was stunned for a few seconds, her mouth stiffly pulled, "I don’t understand what you an by that. I haven’t been at the resort for very long, and besides, what purpose would it serve if I did such a thing?"
This is also what Adrian Walyon couldn’t understand.
If Lorraine Hughes really did it, just hiding the phone seed truly pointless.
"It better have nothing to do with Miss Hughes, otherwise, business relations between our two families might end today!" Adrian Walyon stared at her for a while, leaving a remark, then slowly started the car.
After leaving the resort, considering it was getting late, he feared Sumr Sutton might worry if he took too long, so he wanted to call her.
However, upon turning the phone screen on, he unexpectedly found the phone battery was dead.
Adrian Walyon was helpless, tossed the phone aside, and continued driving.
...
On the road towards the mountain, Sumr Sutton was driving her car heading in the direction of the resort.
It’s almost eleven now, and since she hasn’t received a call from Adrian Walyon this late, she is no longer worried about him being with Lorraine Hughes.
More than that, Sumr Sutton is concerned about the safety of Adrian Walyon on his way down the mountain.
Her driving had initially been quite stable, but thinking about this, she beca anxious.
All the way up the mountain had been fine before, but suddenly, halfway up, a rumbling sound ca from the mountain.
It seed as if sothing was rolling down.
Sumr Sutton only hesitated for a mont and imdiately realized.
Falling rocks!
Judging by the sound, the fallen rocks were quite large.
Hearing the sound getting closer, Sumr Sutton was afraid the rock might hit the car and cause an accident, also worried the rock might block the mountain road, so she abruptly increased her speed before the rock hit.
The nimble car body stread along the night, leaping to avoid the falling rocks, and continued driving on the road.
The mountain road was severely bumpy, Sumr Sutton drove too fast, and soon, she felt severely nauseated, her stomach beginning to ache.
In just a mont, the pain made her break out in a cold sweat.
Her hand holding the steering wheel was a bit stiff, her slender white fingers turning pale, as she parked the car and buried her head on the steering wheel, vision blurred by pain.
She fumbled for her phone, intending to call Adrian Walyon, however, after dialing, there was still no answer.
