Chapter 985
"Tampines? She's at Malayas!"
Looking at the details of the ticket booked for the flight, Frederick was so excited that he just wished he could rush over to see her!
"She just booked the ticket! Perhaps it's a transit flight, or maybe she wants to go on a vacation or meet her friends! Anyway, she booked a ticket home. Congratulations, Frederick, you'll meet each other soon!" "The flight is at eight-thirty. She should arrive around two o'clock in the afternoon! She's coming back, but why didn't she contact me?"
With an indescribable feeling of joy, Frederick unconsciously circled around the table and checked the cell phone as he tried to make a call to Alicia.
"Sorry, the number you dialled is unavailable. Please try again later..."
Seeing how anxious he was like he was at his wit's end, Chet shook his head as he said, "Frederick, you'd better calm down first! Alicia is coming back. If you keep acting this way, you'll scare her away again!" She hadn't even showed up, yet he was acting in a way that could scare her off already!
"Yes, yes, you're right!"
Frederick hung up the phone and rubbed his hands together. He was so nervous that his palms were sweating. It was not easy to get some news about her. He couldn't make any more mistakes!
"Chet, check with your connections over there. Let's see if they can take care of her at the airport! The most important thing is to know where she is heading!"
He couldn't lose her again!
"Got it! I'll look for someone and think of a way!"
That day, Frederick was so excited he almost couldn't sleep for the whole night. On the other side, Alicia had personally handed a document to Mrs. Crouch's friend. They then had dinner together and even exchanged gifts. Only after that did Alicia return to her room upstairs and called the trustor. Thinking about how she would be home soon, she exhaustedly closed her eyes and slept soundly. She was so busy that she did not notice that there were a few missed calls.
The next day, Frederick got up early. He washed up, paying extra attention to groom himself, and left the house in high spirits.
As soon as he entered the office, he took some important documents and approved them. He then settled everything he needed to do for the day as early as possible. The moment Chet entered the office, he was shocked by his new appearance. What surprised him the most was that for the first time in his life, Frederick actually greeted him first,
"Morning..."
Chet scratched his head. After being in a daze for a long time, he finally remembered and responded, "Morning, Frederick!"
'Frederick, you're a little scary today...' He looked so prepared, as if he was going to meet a worldclass big shot!
Chet wanted to say that but hesitated. He could not bring himself to ruin his good mood.
After talking to him about some things, he took a few video screenshots and showed them to him, "Frederick, Alicia boarded the plane!"
He grabbed the cell phone over and looked at the small face at the security checkpoint. Her beautiful face, which had no make-up on, was obviously way smoother and chubbier. Frederick's heart ached a little.
"Is she sick? Why does her face look so pale and seems to be swollen? Don't tell me that the medicine has begun to react!"
Those photos were taken from a higher angle. Also, there were people blocking her, so Frederick could only see her head to her neck. With different angles, he could barely get a full view. However, it was obvious that she looked gaunt. Many of the photos were of her yawning!
"Perhaps it is because she was rushing for the flight, so she didn't really dress up. She looks a little tired and like she might have edema, so of course she doesn't look well! Also, she was previously hurt by you. It's impossible to look all right! Frederick, don't worry too much! Isn't she coming back soon? Since Danica dares to ask you for money, it means that there's still time for the antidote to work. Alicia will be fine!"
"You're right!"
He had gotten most of the antidote. She was coming back at the right time. As long as she took the antidote, she would be fine and would not suffer from pain again.
That day, every minute felt like a year to Frederick. Before one o'clock, he had already arrived at the airport with a bouquet of flowers in his arms.
However, as soon as he entered the hall, he saw that it was bustling with people, and there were reporters rushing in on one side. "What's the matter?"
The two of them walked forward,
and they were hit over the head with
a piece of terrible news. Frederick
grabbed the collar of the security
guard and asked, "What did you
say?"

"A flight of the Malayas Airline took off in the morning but is now missing! Now, all parties are trying their best to search and rescue them!" "Malayas Airline? Which flight is it? Where did it take off from?"
Frederick's expression changed drastically. Chet was also so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head, "Frederick, calm down first. I'll go ask around!"
"I think it took off from Tampines, flight P340. It took off at around eight o'clock in the morning and has lost contact in just an hour. We haven't found it yet..."
His mind started buzzing. The mention of P340 was like a bomb that exploded in Frederick's mind. No, Ally... His Ally!
Everything went black. Frederick staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"Sir, sir, are you all right?"
At that moment, Chet ran back holding his cell phone. Color had drained from his face.
"Has she boarded the plane? Is it Ally's flight? Tell me, yes, or no?" Frederick's lips trembled as he grabbed Chet's collar.
Holding him up, Chet fell silent.
"Answer me! Did she board the plane? Did she?" Although Frederick had seen the pictures of her entering the boarding gate, he still refused to believe it at that moment. Chet gulped nervously before saying.
"The other side said that there are
many countries and flight control
ว
zones that they will pass by for flights from Malayas coming here. Each time they enter a flight zone, the other party has to provide signal service. It is said that they lost contact earlier on. They have just reported to us that they might have disappeared over the overlapping sea zones. Now they're doing their best to search for it. There are 108 passengers on it, most probably... none of them were absent!"
Chet closed his eyes. It was only a few sentences, but he seemed to have used up all his strength. He could never imagine that such a thing would happen.
If it were anything else, there might still be a chance of survival, but on a plane...
"No, no, Ally! No, it can't be! My Ally... No way! Get a plane ready. I'll go and search for it myself!"
"Frederick, Frederick! Calm down first!"
Holding his hand, Chet said, "Many countries have already sent out search and rescue teams. Where are we going to search for it? At this time, we'd better wait here for the
news!"
"It's not your wife, so of course, you're not panicking! Every other minute I wait for here would make her chance of survival slimmer! I can't sit here waiting any longer!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had spoken without thinking. Frederick waved his hand in panic and said, "I'm sorry, Chet. I..."
"I understand! You stay here and wait for the news. Cooperate with the search. I'll find a way to get more people to help. We'll see if that will help!"
Turning around, Chet took out his cell phone again and walked towards the other side.
The hall was already in a mess. At the same time, on the chair in the office of Tampines' airport, Alicia was crying out loud.
She couldn't help wailing.
That was so unfair! How did he dare bully a pregnant woman! Knowing she could not run fast, he took her suitcase and even stole her purse. How could she be so unlucky? She even lost her passport. What should she do?
