Chapter 105: 105. The People Outside

Looking through his phone, Andy quickly inquired the news of his family members.

He hoped that they would be able to stay at the forefront even in this situation.

John furrowed his eyebrows, clearly feeling indignant about this matter. However, he still took out his phone to contact his family members. No matter what, he also wanted to find out about their situation.

"Don’t cry, alright?" Jake looked at Betty in front of her and raised his hand to wipe her tears. "I’m not going back to her. I just feel indignant."

Betty was feeling grievances. When she heard Jake’s words, she really wanted to yell at him and said that he was not allowed to think about her anymore. But she knew that if she used forceful methods, he might only give birth to rebellious thoughts.

She felt really wronged.

Tears were still coming out of her eyes and seemed to be unstoppable. It was clear that Betty couldn’t control it.

She was annoyed.

She had finally gotten Jake after a long period of chasing but now she was about to lose him in just a month’s time?

It was frustrating.

"Stop, crying." Jake felt frustrated when he saw Betty was still crying.

"You will stay with me, right?" Betty asked, trying her best to make herself look pitiful.

With the fact that Betty hadn’t been able to eat enough lately coupled with her haggard appearance, she did look pitiful. But at the same time, she no longer looked as beautiful as she used to be.

After all, in the situation where it was hard to find something to eat, it was also very hard for Betty to take care of her beautiful face.

Jake looked at Betty and nodded.

However, he was silently thinking about Anna’s still beautiful face and Betty’s current haggard appearance.

He was still a person who liked good appearance.

Who didn’t like to see something that look good?

Jake tried his best to forcefully pushed the thoughts down. He has always thought that Betty is much more beautiful than Anna, why did he think otherwise now?

He must be blind.

Convincing himself that way, Jake took out his phone. "I’m going to contact my family. You do the same, ok?"

Betty nodded and wiped her tears. She quickly find her phone and tried to contact her family members. Now that the rain had stopped, will the electricity be returned in some areas?

She hoped that this time, she could contact her family members.

...

Mr. Williams’ place.

To say that the rain had stopped and the electricity returned immediately would be highly impossible.

What happened was that there were more rescue operations being done.

Mr. Williams and his family members were still staying in the hotel at this time. They borrowed the electricity to charge their phone and tried to contact others to help them get away from here.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Mr. Williams’ face was very dark when he heard the beeping sound from his phone.

This was already the seventh call he made to ask for boat but these people all said that they couldn’t do it and shut the phone. Some of them were polite but some others just immediately said that they couldn’t and shut the phone.

Mr. Williams was very annoyed.

These people who used to have good relationship with him were all abandoning him one by one.

Are they looking down on him?

After all, Mr. Williams’ background was indeed not very good compared to these people. Some of them were already very rich from the time when they were young and they inherited their family’s business. Since they didn’t need to build their business from scratch and had the backing of their family, their business path was also extremely smooth.

Mr. Williams was a bit different.

The one who came from the rich background was his wife while his own background was not very good.

It could be said to be relatively ordinary but still above average. At the very least, he never felt lacking when he was young in various matters.

His current wife, Mrs. Williams, was even worse. She was coming from an extremely ordinary family and didn’t have any background worth noting. Even if she were to ask for her family members to help, what can they do?

Mr. Williams was annoyed.

He looked at the manager in front of him. "Is it possible to borrow a boat?"

"The number of boat is limited and at this time, our priority to save the people who are in remote areas." The manager showed a polite and apologetic smile.

This was not the first time there was someone who came to him to borrow the boat. However, this temporary shelters were not owned privately and instead done by the military. The use of these boats had to prioritize with the people from the military.

The private use of the boats was definitely not allowed.

Mr. Williams knew that this was a rejection and there was nothing much that he could do but to accept it.

He lowered his head and thought about the Stafford Family.

To be honest, he didn’t really want to go to them and asked for help. After all, he knew very well that his daughter was still with Jake Stafford but their relationship was not very stable.

At the very least, after that damn Anna revealed the truth of Betty’s status as illegitimate child, the Stafford Family has been looking at them differently.

Mr. Williams was trying to repair the relationship.

If not for the sudden incident that involved his company, he would have long gone to the Stafford Family to discuss about this matter and also made some concession.

Now, he couldn’t do anything.

In the end, Mr. Williams gritted his teeth.

It was just a loss of face, so be it.

He clicked the familiar number and made the call.

"Hello, Mr. Stafford, this is Mr. Williams. I’m here to talk about..."
