Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 701: Escape from the City

After a while, Louis Hayes dialed a number and said to the person on the other end of the line, "The police will be here soon, let those unrelated leave first."

Thus, with the naked eye, one-third fewer people were surrounding the car, and the extras gradually left the scene.

The remaining people were truly involved with the Woodward Family.

Only when the police car entered the street did Louis Hayes and Lily Sloan turn to leave.

At the same time.

Nora Northwood was discharged and left the hospital, but Jasper Sinclair didn’t rush to take her home; instead, he went to a psychological hospital.

After experiencing such events, it will inevitably leave a psychological shadow.

Although Nora Northwood didn’t say it, Jasper Sinclair noticed.

The psychologist’s advice was to find a quiet place to stay for half a month, preferably far away from the crowd and the city.

Thus, Jasper Sinclair found an isolated paradise and took her to live an isolated life for a while.

Unlike the service of a five-star hotel, where they lived required them to do everything themselves.

Though tiring, it was full of the essence of life.

On the last day of their two-week journey, Nora Northwood found herself reluctant to leave.

Jasper Sinclair told her, "If you like it here, you can stay another half month."

"There’s still a pile of work waiting to be handled at the company and home."

Though Nora Northwood was reluctant, she had to face reality.

While in the paradise, the Sinclair Group business never stopped bothering Jasper Sinclair.

Several times, Nora Northwood got up at night and saw him alone in front of the computer, working.

Before returning to the city, they didn’t pay attention to the weather forecast.

After a month of clear weather, suddenly as they were returning to the city, the clouds gathered.

Even more awkwardly, they were already twenty kilometers into the mountain road, now, halfway, it was difficult to go out and equally difficult to return.

Nora Northwood looked at the rain constantly beating against the car window and murmured, "Should’ve followed the feeling and stayed one more night."

"Take my phone and call Louis Hayes, ask him to find someone to pick us up."

Following Jasper Sinclair’s words, Nora Northwood did as he instructed, but as soon as she unlocked the phone, she discovered that deep in the woods, under the thunderstorm, there was no signal at all.

In this way, they could only resign to fate and continue driving forward.

However, what awaited them were more unknown factors.

Suddenly, a certain part of the car made a sound, forcing the vehicle to slow down until it came to a stop.

In disbelief, Nora Northwood looked at Jasper Sinclair, "Don’t tell me the car broke down."

Toyota Alphard, a typical business car, unsuitable for rugged mountain roads. No matter how good the configuration, it couldn’t withstand such torment.

Jasper Sinclair gave an explanation difficult to accept, "Unexpectedly, we’ve broken down."

Nora Northwood thought in distress: Is there anything more unexpected than this?

At three in the afternoon, the sky in the woods was already gradually darkening, not ruling out the emergence of wild beasts or unknown animals.

The only bright side was that there were several tourist spots nearby; they could only rely on luck to see if any vehicles would pass by.

Time ticked by second by second, and beyond the two of them, there was no third figure in sight.

The torrential rain showed no signs of stopping anytime soon.

Knowing that it’s not wise to stay there, Jasper Sinclair chose to get out and check where the problem lay.

Nora Northwood wanted to go down with him but was rebuffed by his firm attitude, "If you stay inside, I can concentrate more on repairing the car, understand?"

Knowing she would only hold him back, she refrained from speaking further.
