Scum Daddy Dreams Of Stealing My Mommy!
Chapter 417: A Blessing in Disguise

Chapter 417: Chapter 417: A Blessing in Disguise

Christopher answered the phone, making sarcastic remarks, waiting for Amelia to keep apologizing to soothe him—who knew Snow would start cursing and drop the line with "Amelia is in trouble".

He was in a meeting with several executives discussing tomorrow’s stock market reopening matters, and suddenly felt chaotic, froze for a moment before immediately redialing.

However, the call was disconnected from the other side as well.

His face turned dark, his entire demeanor changed, causing the executives sitting opposite him to become concerned, "Christopher, what’s wrong?"

Christopher didn’t reply, while dialing again, and pressed the intercom on his desk.

Lucas King quickly entered the room: "President Hart."

"Did you track where Snow’s car went?" Christopher asked urgently.

Lucas was startled, stammering: "I... didn’t track it, I suggested tracking it, but you said not to..."

At that time, Christopher was angry, refusing to hear about Amelia’s news out of spite, so he had said not to track it.

But now...

Christopher shot him a look, with eyes as sharp as knives.

Lucas immediately turned around: "I’ll go track it now!"

In his concern, Christopher became irrational, having been disconnected twice by Snow’s calls, he suddenly felt stupid!

Why not call Amelia directly?

So, he found Amelia’s number in the contacts, and dialed it.

Unexpectedly, that call was disconnected too.

At that moment, his feelings were not just worry, anxiety, or panic.

Amelia sat on the ground, recovering her spirits after resting for a while, looked at her friend who snatched her phone, smiled helplessly, "Snow, what are you doing, give me the phone... he will worry."

Seeing an ambulance come through the emergency passage, Snow looked joyful: "The emergency service is here! Let’s hurry and let the doctor examine you!"

She waved her hand, "No need, I’m fine, let the medical staff rescue those who are more seriously poisoned."

Except for feeling a bit dizzy, having chest tightness, and discomfort in her throat, her consciousness was clear, indeed not a big problem.

While there were many people severely vomiting, unable to walk properly, they needed medical assistance more.

Meanwhile, the phone held tightly in Snow’s hand rang again.

Amelia reached out, weakly saying: "Snow, give it back... stop fooling around."

Snow looked at her state, frustrated, "You! He’s got you completely wrapped around his finger!"

After saying that, she returned the phone to her.

"Hello..."

Once the call connected, Christopher’s anxious and urgent voice came through, "Where are you? What happened? How are you now?"

"I..." Amelia said weakly, "I’m with Snow on the highway returning to the city, encountered a traffic accident passing through the tunnel, it seems a vehicle carrying hazardous materials had an accident, inhaled some toxic smoke during evacuation, feeling a bit unwell..."

Listening to her words, Christopher’s worried and troubled feeling was similar to when he heard she encountered an aviation accident previously!

For a moment, he didn’t know whether to feel angry, concerned, or furious!

Clearly, they had agreed to register for the marriage certificate in the afternoon; she lied and canceled suddenly, turns out she left the city!

What can be more important than a lifelong matter?

And encountered such a dangerous traffic accident!

The other side remained silent, Amelia roughly guessed his feelings, instead actively comforted him, "I’m fine... just need to rest, don’t worry about me."

"Where are you, send me the address!" Christopher didn’t want to say anything, with the sole thought—to rush over, as quickly as possible to her side.

Amelia heard his tense voice, urgent tone, knowing he must be scared, quickly added, "I’m really fine, already safe, it’s a complete jam over here, even if you come..."

"Send the address!" No mood to hear more of her rambling, the man raised his tone with momentum.

Amelia paused, suddenly thought of something, raised her voice too, "Didn’t you blacklist me? How can I send it?"

"..." Christopher was momentarily stunned, within a second, his tone lost its previous vigor, "I was muddle-headed at that time..."

After hanging up, Christopher immediately opened WhatsApp and removed her from the blacklist.

[Location.]

Amelia received those two words, although thinking it was unnecessary, she still sent the location.

The next moment, WhatsApp rang, it was a video call request from him.

She had no choice but to answer, "Now what?"

"Let me see you, are you really okay?" Christopher’s handsome face appeared on the screen, filled with anxiety and worry.

Amelia hadn’t spoken yet, Snow leaned over, "Of course she’s in trouble! When we came out of the tunnel, she used her moist cloth covering mouth and nose for a little kid, inhaled a lot of toxic smoke herself! But now there aren’t enough ambulances available, they can only rescue those more severely poisoned, we’re sitting by the roadside waiting."

While speaking, Snow snatched Amelia’s phone and turned the camera towards the highway and tunnel entrance, "Look, it’s very serious! We almost couldn’t get out!"

On the road, vehicles were completely stuck, many people were helping each other, ambulances crowded the emergency passage...

Christopher saw the chaotic scene, saw medical staff trying their best to rescue, and some were clinging to the fence vomiting incessantly, his heart clenched even tighter.

"Snow, why are you scaring him." Amelia reached out and pulled her friend back, taking the phone back.

"I’m really okay, you’re so busy, don’t bother, we’ll return as soon as the road is clear." She again urged the man on the other side, not wanting him to run back and forth.

But Christopher couldn’t rest assured, leaving a "stay in touch", and hung up the video.

The meeting was stopped, he called Lucas over, sending him the location, asking him to find a way to get there quickly.

Lucas saw the location address, murmuring, "I just saw in a group chat, saying a traffic accident happened in Yellow Ridge Tunnel, causing a truck carrying hazardous materials to self-combust, leading to toxic gas leakage, lots of ambulances and fire trucks have gone over."

He frowned looking at his boss, confused, "What did ma’am and Miss Fitch go out of the city for?"

Christopher had no idea either, moreover, it wasn’t important now, the crucial thing was to rush there immediately.

While on the other side, Amelia hung up the video and helped Snow stand up, looked around: "Is there a way to get off the highway? Staying here won’t work either..."

Snow exposed her, "Afraid your man will come and can’t find you and worry, aren’t you? True, just argued a moment ago, now you’re clingy."

Amelia chuckled softly, "Blessing in disguise..."

More and more fire trucks and ambulances arrived, after rescuing the severely poisoned patients, those with mild symptoms like Amelia could also see a doctor.

Although ventilation was opened in the tunnel, it was temporarily closed for safety.

Blocked vehicles, under traffic police’s guidance, turned around along a temporarily opened lane to the nearest exit off the highway, to take local roads.

Snow hesitated whether to cover her mouth and nose with a damp towel, as they moved the car out through the tunnel, Amelia’s phone rang.

"Where are you? I’m near your location."

Christopher’s voice came through, Amelia’s heart instantly stabilized much.

"We’re just over a hundred meters from the tunnel entrance, there’s an open space here where many people are resting."

After hanging up, she got up and waited by the roadside, within two minutes, the formidable Lincoln Presidential One appeared in sight.

"Snow, don’t go inside, too dangerous, Christopher is here."
