Please Love Me, Mr. George

Chapter 97 Dennis got into an accident

I was woken up by the phone in the middle of the night. I was too tired that I picked up the phone and

answered it without looking at the caller ID.

“Hello!”

“May I ask if you are Dennis’s wife, Clara?” The voice on the other end of the phone is very formal.

I responded and subconsciously looked at the time on my phone. It was already two in the morning.

How could anyone call at this time?

“You are...?”

“Hello, Miss Kennedy, Mr. George encountered an accident on the P International Airlines H898 flight

from Newton Town to City P yesterday. He is currently being treated in the People’s Hospital in City P.

Please come over. We require his family members signature!”

I abruptly sat up straight from the bed, my mind was buzzing, an airplane accident? How could it be…

For a while, I didn’t know what was going on in my mind. I didn’t know what to respond to the other end

of the phone, so I just acknowledged.

I was lost for a moment. I trembled as I tried to find Dennis's contact to call him. However, his phone

was still turned off despite multiple call attempts.

I called Mario but I didn’t know if it was too late hence no one answered. It was the same for Marcus.

Over concern could blow things out of proportion.

I called Olivia instead. Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the phone to be connected.

On the other end of the phone, she was crying with tears, “Clara, where are you? Dennis got into an

accident. Hurry come over!”

“What’s happened? Where is he?” I pinched my palms to calm myself down and asked.

“He originally sent me over. When the plane made an emergency landing, he wanted to protect me,

so...” She cried loudly, “My parents have also entered the emergency room. The hospital asked you to

sign the papers. I was wrong. I will never fight with you again. As long as he is alive, I would do

anything...”

I didn’t listen to her later words. I didn’t think it was necessary.

After I hung up the phone, I felt uncomfortable about it.

I was no longer drowsy after all that had happened. After getting out of bed and walking around a few

times, I had calmed down, I called Diana.

She didn’t answer so I called Luis afterward.

Unexpectedly, that man answered, “It’s three in the morning. Clara, don’t tell me that you miss me

hence you’re calling at this hour.”

“I want to ask, where is Mr. Thomson now?” I didn’t trust Olivia, so...

“In the evening, she and Samuel flew with Olivia to the capital. By the way, your man also seemed to

have gone too.” He probably hasn’t slept. There was still a bit of clarity in his voice, and I could faintly

hear the sound of a keyboard through the phone.

I frowned and suppressed the emotions in my heart, “Did she call you from City P to report her safety?”

“Why would she do that?” He raised his voice, “I’m nothing to her, what’s there to report for?”

“I mean your mother, Luna. Did she reply to your message. Are they safe?” In this group, I know a

limited number of people so I could only ask Luis.

He was typing on the computer and said, “For more than 20 years, she has never taken the initiative to

talk about anything with me, let alone such trivial things. You called in the middle of the night, are you

going to ask something?”

“I received a message saying that the plane they were on had an accident. Can you check it for me?”

At this time, only he could find out.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then he said, “Ok, let me check it out!” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He hung up the phone, and I could only wait patiently.

I left the bedroom and headed downstairs, Dennis was not there so I felt a little empty and turned on all

the lights in the villa.

I took my mobile phone to watch City P news but flipped through it for a long time and found nothing.

About fifteen minutes later, Luis called and as soon as he was connected, he said, “I have booked

tickets for seven in the morning. Do you want to go too?”

I thumped in my heart and said, “Go!” For a while, I lost strength and had some breathing difficulty.

My mind was buzzing, and I wanted to ask in detail, but it was stuck in my throat, I couldn’t speak.

After a long time, on the other end of the phone, “They should be fine. The plane went down rapidly

when it was at the airport and suffered bumps and collisions. Don’t worry too much.”

I nodded and pressed my voice, “I see, I’ll see you tomorrow morning!”

After I hung up the call, I couldn’t fall asleep. I sat in the hall with my arms around me and felt empty. It

would be better if the house was smaller.

Living in such a big house, every word causes an echo that makes one feel uncomfortable.

The four hours that went by were slow and unbearable.

When I saw that it was almost dawn, I packed some things, took my ID card and some personal

belongings, and rushed out.

Luis reached earlier than me. When I arrived at the airport, he had already picked up the tickets.

There were not many people at the airport in the morning, most of them were passersby who were in a

hurry.

Luis raised his hand when he saw me and looked at his watch, and said, “There’s still half an hour left,

let’s go through the security check first!”

I couldn’t help but ask when I saw his haggard face, “Didn’t sleep all night last night?”

He glanced at me and raised his eyebrows, “Didn’t you too?”

I was taken aback but I didn’t say much and acquiesced.

There were not many people at the security check, and we arrived shortly. We handed the ID card and

ticket to the security guard. The security guard glanced at me a few times, compared the ID card with

me several times, and said with a strange expression, “Clara?”

I nodded and saw that Luis had passed the security check, and looked at the staff, and urged him,

“Can you hurry up? We are in a rush.”

For a long time, the security guard looked at me and said, “Miss Kennedy, I’m sorry, please cooperate

with our work.”

Before I could react, two young men in police uniforms walked towards me then grabbed me on both

sides and brought me out.

Luis followed out and blocked both of them, and perplexedly asked, “Fellow police, may I know what is

going on?”

“We belong to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce. At present, we have received reports that the

George Group is suspected of manipulating the black market, so Miss Kennedy, we will need you to

come with me.”

The two of them took me away after they spoke.

I had no idea what is going on.

Luis grabbed one of them, “Something happened to the George Group but why are you arresting her?

She is just a staff member. You should find the legal person from the George Group!”

“Sir, please don’t hinder us from performing our official duties. Ms. Kennedy is an employee of the

George Group and the wife of the legal owner. At the same time, most of the George Group’s

documents were signed by her. This matter is directly related to her. If you have any questions, sir, you

can ask a lawyer. Please don’t interfere with our official duties.”

I didn’t understand for a while, but my mind was clear. I looked at Luis and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll go to

the City P to check the situation before making plans.”

With George Group in trouble and Dennis was not being there, if I also leave now, then something

major may happen.

I didn’t know if Marcus and Mario can hold the fort down.

As I followed the police to the interrogation room, a middle-aged woman questioned me. She sat

opposite me with a serious yet calm face, “Ms. Kennedy, I’m sorry to bring you here. As it involved

some legal issues, therefore I am required to have a recorded conversation with you. I hope you can

cooperate with my work.”
