After Avery heard Elliot’s words, her throat seemed to be blocked.
She wanted to say something, but couldn’t say it.
Elliot thought that Layla was more ominous than good—was that what he meant?
“But there may be miracles.” Elliot felt that he had said something wrong, so he immediately added, “Avery, we
have to believe in miracles.”
“You really think we can encounter miracles over and over again, is it?” Avery felt that being able to find Hazel was
already the luckiest thing, it was already a gift from God to them, now, could there be such a miracle again?
Of course she hoped to have it, but she felt that it was hanging again and again.
Just as the two of them were silent, Elliot’s cell phone received a message.
A staff member sent him the specific time when Layla and Eric entered the scenic spot.
According to this specific time, it could be inferred that Layla and Eric happened to be on the snow mountain when

It was almost certain that the two of them lost contact because of danger.
Nobody knew for certain if they were still alive.
Avery leaned in front of Elliot, read the messages on his phone, and closed her eyes.
“I guessed it… If they’re okay, they should have called us to report their safety.” Elliot put his arms around her
body, resting his chin on her head, with a gloomy and desolate expression on his face.
Before Hazel came back, Layla was his most beloved baby.
From the moment he knew Layla was his daughter a long time ago, his heart was touched by Layla’s every move.
He devoted a lot of energy to this precious daughter, hoping that she will be safe, healthy and happy. He couldn’t
accept such bad news now.
Elliot was not the only one who loved Layla so much.
After Mike and Chad came to join Hayden, and learned of the difficult and dangerous situation, they immediately
contacted a professional outdoor expedition team to come to the snow mountain to search and rescue.
As more and more people came to participate in the rescue, people in distress in the snow mountain were found
one after another and carried down.
At the foot of the snow-capped mountain, there were already cold corpses lying side by side.
They were neatly dressed, and their clothes were not damaged, but there were varying degrees of panic and fear
on their faces.
By four o’clock in the afternoon, the electric circuit was successfully repaired, and the electricity was finally
connected.
By this time the sky had begun to darken.
Today’s snow was not heavy, but intermittent, almost non-stop.
By five o’clock in the evening, the network system was restored.
Elliot and Avery were notified and immediately set off for the hotel closest to the snow mountain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter arriving at the hotel, Elliot couldn’t stay any longer.
“Avery, I’ll go and see the scene. You wait for Hazel and Robert at the hotel.” Elliot held Avery’s hand tightly,
pleading.
Both Mike and Chad had already gone to battle in person, looking for someone on the snow mountain.
He couldn’t sit in the hotel and wait for the results.
If it wasn’t for Hazel and Robert to wait, Avery and Elliot would go to the scene to see it together.
“Be careful.” Avery confessed, “You’d better be with Hayden. Don’t wander around by yourself.”
“Okay.” Elliot held Avery’s face and pressed a kiss on her forehead, “wife, I Love you.”
Listening to his confession, Avery knew that his heart was very fragile now, so she responded: “Husband, I love you
too. No matter what the outcome is, we will face it together as a family.”
Avery kept swiping her phone after Elliot left, afraid of missing any important news.
The network had been restored, and Hayden would soon be able to locate Layla’s cell phone.
He could pinpoint Layla’s exact location if he found her mobile phone.
