Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence
Chapter 1520

However, just as Ariana was about to reply, feeling content, she overheard the driver muttering in confusion, “Wait.

Why isn’t the speed decreasing?”

Concerned, Ariana inquired, “What’s going on?”

Panicked, the driver aggressively pressed the brakes and exclaimed, “The brakes aren’t responding!”

Ariana became anxious.

“What? But the car was recently serviced.

Try the brakes once more!”

“I am doing it, but it’s not stopping!” The driver clutched the steering wheel tightly, continuously pressing the brake pedal, yet the vehicle failed to decelerate.

The car had been tampered with.

The brakes were malfunctioning!

The car hurtled uncontrollably along the winding mountain roads encircling the farm, fraught with sharp turns.

The driver was terrified but focused on steering.

Even the children sensed the danger and clutched their seats firmly.

Alarmed, Ariana swiftly drew the children close to shield them.

Abruptly, a sharp bend appeared ahead.

The driver attempted to navigate it, but the car was too fast.

The tires skidded, causing the car to veer off the road and plummet down the hill.

The car echoed with screams as Ariana spun around, shut her eyes tightly, and shielded the children with her body.

In Mistlyn.

Holden waited for Ariana’s reply to his text.

He suddenly felt anxious out of nowhere.

With each passing moment, Holden’s unease grew as he repeatedly checked his phone for a response from Ariana, but there was still no message from her.

He sent another message asking her what was wrong, yet still received no reply.

His anxiety mounting, he attempted to call her, only to hear the phone ringing without an answer.

After several unsuccessful attempts, Holden rose from the couch and started pacing restlessly in front of the window.

He then dialed Devin’s number, and Devin promptly answered.

“I’ve been trying to get ahold of Ariana, but she didn’t answer her phone.

Where are you?”

Devin was alarmed as he replied, “We encountered a problem with a shipment at one of our branches today.

It was flagged for inspection, and there were allegations of illegal arms smuggling.

I had to rush to the office to handle it, which was why I couldn’t accompany Miss Edwards to the banquet.

I arranged for our driver to take her instead.

”

Holden replied and ended the call, attempting to ease his worry by considering the possibility that Ariana was so engrossed in conversation with Mitchel and the others that she didn’t use her phone.

However, after an agonizing half hour passed with no communication from Ariana, Holden couldn’t just wait any longer.

He tried calling the driver but received no answer.

Sensing that something might have gone wrong, Holden instructed Shawn to arrange a private jet for an immediate return to Eleymond.

Holden desperately hoped to find Ariana at home upon his arrival.

But when he got home, the house was eerily quiet and enveloped in darkness.
