A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

After hanging up the phone with Dora, Raymond picked up the car key and turned to leave the villa.

Marie stopped Raymond.

"Mr. Cordova, it's so late, and it's raining heavily outside. Where are you going?"

"You are so worried about Veronica. I'll go find her!"

"You didn't get through to her. How could you know where she went? If you insist on going out, take an umbrella with you!" Before Raymond got in the car, Marie stuffed an umbrella into his car. Raymond glanced at the passenger seat and drove away from the villa.

The car left the villa and quickly drove into the rain, disappearing from Marie's sight.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Marie looked worriedly at Raymond's back as he left.

She hoped that nothing would happen to Veronica.

The cast on Raymond's arm was just removed a week ago. When driving, he should not use too much strength.

Raymond drove the car in the direction of North Mountain. The car rolled across the water and splashed water.

Because it was night, and it was raining, coupled with the mountain road, Raymond spent an hour and a half on the mountain road before he finally arrived at the foot of North Mountain.

The gatekeeper of North Mountain, Herman Blass, saw that Raymond was going to cross the protective fence of the gate and climb up the mountain. He quickly took an umbrella and walked out of the guard's cabin, shouting at Raymond.

"Sir, the mountain is not open at night. You should go back."

Raymond said expressionlessly, "My girlfriend is on the mountain. I need to find her."

"It's so late. There's no one up there. The staff searched around the mountain and found no one. Your girlfriend must have left."

Raymond ignored Herman's obstruction and walked up the mountain.

As Raymond walked, he said, "I'm sure she's up there."

Herman could not dissuade Raymond. The mountain was so big, that he could only follow Raymond with a flashlight. "Sir, slow down. I'll go up the mountain with you."

Herman followed Raymond up the mountain with a flashlight in his hand, and they climbed to the Summer Hut.

Herman saw that Raymond was going to the Summer Hut and quickly stopped him.

"Sir, you can't go to the front. It's raining, and the Summer Hut is dangerous. After going there, it's very likely that you won't be able to come out."

"She's right there. I must go and find her!"

Nowadays, young men...

Herman saw Raymond's insistence and could only give his gas mask to Raymond. "Sir, this mask is for you. Put it on. I only have one anti-poison mask. I can't go with you." Raymond took the gas mask from Herman and looked at him gratefully. "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Come back as soon as possible. I'll give you this flashlight as well. The rain is so heavy, so I have to go back to the foot of the mountain to prevent anyone from rushing up. When you go down the mountain, return me the flashlight and gas mask."

"Alright."

Herman turned around and left for the foot of the mountain. Raymond held the flashlight and wore the gas mask as he walked into the Summer Hut.

The rain hadn't stopped. Although Raymond held the umbrella in his hand, because he had been in the rain for so long, his clothes got wet.

Raymond looked around the Summer Hut and did not see Veronica.

"Veronica, Veronica..." Raymond called Veronica's name near the Summer Hut.

"Veronica, did you hear me? Answer me if you hear me."

"Veronica, I know you are nearby. I came to save you. Did you hear me?"

"Veronica, Veronica..."

Raymond's voice resounded incessantly near the Summer Hut.

However, no matter how hard Raymond shouted, he couldn't hear Veronica's reply.

The soil on the mountain was relatively soft. Because of the rain, the ground became muddy. While Raymond looked for Veronica, his shoes and trousers were stained with mud. However, Raymond did not care and continued to call Veronica's name.

About a hundred meters below Summer Hut, Veronica was sheltering from the rain under a thick tree.

Because the rain was too heavy, the leaves of the trees were leaking, and Veronica's body was soaked through.

Veronica was now wet, cold, and hungry. She wanted to leave this place, but after escaping from the illusion of Summer Hut with great difficulty, she saw herself appear on a small cliff. She missed her step and fell down from the cliff. As a result, she sprained her ankle. Veronica was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up.

But things got worse. It started to rain.

Veronica could only drag herself to the tree where she was now hiding.

Her mobile phone was unable to be turned on because of the water.

Veronica planned to hide under this big tree and wait until staff members passed by to help her tomorrow morning.

In her trance, Veronica heard someone call her name.

When Veronica heard someone call her name, Veronica thought she was hallucinating.

It was so late. Moreover, she was alone on this mountain. How could someone call her name?

Veronica assumed that she must have had an illusion.

Just as Veronica thought so, the sound became clearer.

"Veronica, if you hear me, answer me."

Veronica truly heard someone calling her. Furthermore ... the person calling her sounded like Raymond.

Veronica thought she must have heard it wrong. How could Raymond call her? Raymond hated her. He always tortured her to the extreme. How could he appear here and call her name?

So, Veronica was sure that she must have misheard.

But just as Veronica thought this, the voice got closer and closer.

"Veronica, I'm Raymond. Answer me if you hear me."

Veronica didn't return.

Veronica was sure that she wasn't hallucinating. Moreover, when Raymond called out to her, she felt a ray of light constantly swaying about.

Hearing Raymond's voice, Veronica suddenly had an indescribable feeling.

Unexpectedly, Raymond appeared here at this time.

'Did he ... come to look for me?' Veronica wondered.

"Veronica, where are you?"

When Veronica heard Raymond's voice again, she suddenly figured out what was happening.

Veronica immediately waved at Raymond. "Raymond, I'm here. Over here!"
