Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 127

Three hours later, in the Country M, walking on the thick snow, Liam searched carefully and slowly step by step.

“Liam, a guy from the hotel told me that they haven’t found her.” Jacob’s voice sounded behind him, informing him of the latest news.

Liam held the alpenstock more tightly.

She was not found yet.

The temperature on the mountain was already minus 15 degrees, which meant that a person must suffer from frostbite and may even die.

And Rita’s still there…

Thinking of Rita’s sufferings, Liam’s face turned cold and stern.

“Give me a tracker.”

Jacob took out and handed two of the trackers to him immediately.

Liam asked Jacob to prepare some trackers before they climbed the mountain to cope with the blizzard and the possibility of getting lost in case of emergency so they could be rescued instantly by those who were staying at the foot of the mountain by the accurate location from the tracker if they were in danger.

Liam put the tracker into the pocket and made his decision,

“Now we are in need of more searchers and the search for Rita is not wide enough. So we must be divided into groups to be more efficient.”

“How?” Jacob looked at him confusedly.

“I am one group. You and the driver are another group looking for her towards the west.”

Hearing this, Jacob bit his lips, “No way. The blizzard is so dangerous that you cannot be alone.”

“Jacob…”

“I want to be with you.”

Before Liam replied, Jacob stood by him in a second.

Liam refused seriously, “No. You can’t! Lee is too old. You must keep him safe.”

“…”

A moment later, “Let’s ask someone to come here as his partner. Then you and I are ...”

“That will waste a lot of time. Rita cannot wait.”

Liam gave his rejection determinedly before Jacob told him the whole plan.

Jacob was stupefied. He understood that to Liam, his beloved Rita was the most important and Liam was worried about her very much.

Staying with him for so many years, Jacob was sure that Rita was the only girl whom Liam cared about.

And Liam cared about her so much that Joey was not her rival.

When Jacob was absent-minded, Liam had already struggled towards the north quite far away from him.

So Jacob had no choice but to search for Rita with the driver.

Now on the mountainside, a cold wind blew through Rita who could not help shivering.

After a few second, she gritted her teeth and kept crawling forward.

When she moved a little, however, the pain in her waist passed through her body as if she was attacked by electricity. Her face, red with cold, now turned pale instantly because of the agony.

But she still tried to tough it out.

“You cannot stop here. No! You will die if you stop and lose the warmth and energy.” She murmured to herself with determination, creeping forward. “You must save yourself so that you are able to love your family and enjoy the happiness which you failed to experience in the last incarnation.”

With her willpower, she managed to go forward a mile after a mile.

But the chillness overwhelmed her and she could not continue. Gradually, with numb legs and stiff hands, she was too weak to move completely.

At last, she was even losing her sense of self.

“No! You cannot sleep…”

Although she made all the effort to warn herself, she could not help closing her eyes gently, regardless of the snow landing on her eyebrows, nose and lips.

“Rita! Rita!”

Moments later, hearing someone was calling her name, Rita recovered consciousness and her eyelashes quivered.

It seemed that someone was looking for her.

Was she going to be rescued by someone from the hotel?

Thinking of these, she forced herself to be sober and tried to reply, opening her mouth, but all of her shouts were in vain because her voice sounded like the humming of a mosquito.

In the cold, she was too weak to give any response

At this moment, the calling was far away.

She raised up her hand to draw any attention eagerly but it seemed that the person searching for her walked away and silence surrounded her again.

Rita looked down disappointedly, “…”

“Rita!”
