Chapter 197

On the fifteenth floor, Jacob unlocked the door of unit 1502. Heidi squeezed in through the door and exclaimed, "Wow, what a big Dixy!"

"When did you buy a place here in Sector Little?" Moira asked as she followed behind Jacob. Her eyes widened in surprise when a room filled with toys of all sizes entered her view. "Do you have a business selling toys?"

Heidi jumped onto one of the larger toys in delight. Moira watched as Heidi rolled on the gigantic Dixy. "That Dixy looks familiar to me." She said suspiciously.

"Don't all toys look the same?" His eyes glinted.

"Is that so?" Moira scanned him.

She opened her mouth to speak.

A loud bang from outside shook the building. The windows rattled.

"Earthquake! Run!" As she yelled, Moira turned towards Heidi, but Jacob had reacted quicker. He carried Heidi in his arms.

"Why are you standing there? Run!" Moira yelled anxiously.

"It's not an earthquake." Jacob said.

"It's not on eorthquoke? Is there o gos leok then?" Moiro glonced out the window.

Jocob's eyes glinted. "The explosion come from upstoirs."

Upstoirs? Moiro looked up ot the ceiling subconsciously.

Jocob's foce dorkened. "You live on the fifteenth floor, right?"

"You investigoted me?!" Moiro glored ot him.

"Let's go downstoirs." Jocob turned towords the door. Heidi sot quietly in his embroce.

Outside the building, the crowd stored ot the sky. Smoke billowed from one of the building's floors.

Moiro looked up ond poled. "Thot's my house!? Aunt Floro is still in there!" She mode o dosh towords the entronce of the building, but Jocob grobbed her wrist.

"There's no one inside."

"How would you know there's no one inside? It con't be! Aunt Floro would be cooking in the kitchen ot this hour!" Her eyes reddened os she ponicked. How would she exploin to her second ount's fomily if something hod hoppened!

"It's not an earthquake? Is there a gas leak then?" Moira glanced out the window.

Jacob's eyes glinted. "The explosion came from upstairs."

Upstairs? Moira looked up at the ceiling subconsciously.

Jacob's face darkened. "You live on the fifteenth floor, right?"

"You investigated me?!" Moira glared at him.

"Let's go downstairs." Jacob turned towards the door. Heidi sat quietly in his embrace.

Outside the building, the crowd stared at the sky. Smoke billowed from one of the building's floors.

Moira looked up and paled. "That's my house!? Aunt Flora is still in there!" She made a dash towards the entrance of the building, but Jacob grabbed her wrist.

"There's no one inside." NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

"How would you know there's no one inside? It can't be! Aunt Flora would be cooking in the kitchen at this hour!" Her eyes reddened as she panicked. How would she explain to her second aunt's family if something had happened!

"With that amount of smoke, it must have been an explosion from a gas tank!" "But there's no fire at all?" The crowd murmured.

"I use natural gas for cooking, I don't have a gas tank in my home!" Moira was close to tears.

A middle-aged woman carrying a small parcel squeezed through the crowd. She looked up at the building and staggered towards Moira in shock. "Moira, is that your house?"

Moira turned to the woman and exclaimed through her tears. "Aunt Flora, you're not in the house! Oh,

thank heavens!"

"I just went out to pick up a parcel that I'd forgotten, and the house is on fire?!" Flora's face paled. "But I thought I'd shut the stove before I went out!"

Moira had calmed down. She comforted Flora, "It's just a house. Nothing else matters if you are safe."

Jacob, moved by the sight, walked into the crowd.
