Chapter 699 Bad News
The others were chatting while Eudora got up and went to the bathroom.
She had been sitting all afternoon to win more money and had no time to do anything else.
After a while, when she came out of the toilet and went to wash her hands, she saw Colbert standing
there smoking.
She glanced at him, somehow feeling that she had nothing to say.
Therefore, Eudora remained silent and fixed her makeup in front of the mirror.
At this moment, Eudora's cell phone rang suddenly.novelbin
She put away her lipstick, took out a tissue to wipe her hands, and then took out her phone. It was from
her adoptive mother, Mildred.
"Hello? Mom, what's wrong?"
"Eudora, where are you? Mr. Robert came down from the mountain in the afternoon, but he fell
because the road was slippery. He hit his head on a rock and is still unconscious."
"What? How could this be?"
Eudora immediately exclaimed after she heard this shocking news. Colbert, who was smoking beside
her, paused and immediately looked at her.
"It's snowing now, and the road is covered with ice. You know Kevin is not a young man anymore."
"Okay. I'll go back right away."
Eudora hung up in a hurry.
She stood in front of the mirror and sighed nervously. But then, she saw Colbert looking at her through
the mirror.
They both stared at each other in silence.
Colbert opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but Eudora didn't give him the chance and
left in a hurry.
Colbert followed closely behind and also followed.
Eudora trotted back to the box, only to find that nobody was left inside except for Jayleen and the
cleaning staff.
"Mr. Burke went to pick up a call. Mr. Derek Steele and Wendy went back to ski," Jayleen explained.
Because it was still early, the waiter planned to clean up the box and prepare to serve the food on time
at 6 pm.
After all, the resort was crowded, and even the hotel was full of guests. If they leave now, they would
need to queue up to have dinner.
Eudora immediately called Derek. However, after calling him a few times, Derek still didn't answer.
"Drive my car."
Colbert, who suddenly appeared behind her, said coldly.
Eudora was so anxious. She thought for a while and had no choice but to take Colbert's car key.
"Thank you. I'll return it to you when I come back."
She rushed downstairs in a hurry, then suddenly remembered that she hadn't asked Colbert where his
car was. But then, Colbert showed up and pointed to a silver-gray Maybach aside.
Eudora looked back at Colbert and wanted to thank him. However, she failed to say a word and trotted
toward the car.
Just as Eudora started the car and was about to leave, Colbert walked over, then opened the door and
got in directly.
"What are you doing?"
Eudora's face darkened, and she felt quite displeased.
"It takes several hours to drive from here to Maple Town. Do you know how dangerous it is? Come
down. I'll drive!"
Colbert reprimanded her with a serious look, but his tone was filled with concern.
