Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1026 Saved By Linda

The helicopter had already descended towards the gangsters. When it was close enough, a policeman onboard had swiftly aimed at the tire of the getaway car with utmost precision before pulling the trigger. The tire exploded, causing the vehicle to drift dangerously. And as if they were running out of time, the policemen briskly jumped out of the aircraft, surrounding the busted car instantly, leaving the people inside with now chance to escape. One by one, they got out of the car, with their hands over their heads.

Carla rushed to the house situated at the top of the mountain. Her irrational fear was now slowly getting into her nerves as she got close to it. And that same fear almost paralyzed her when they found the whole house empty. Terence was nowhere to be found!

“Mrs. An, don’t worry. We will interrogate them to know the whereabouts of Mr. An! We will soon find him!”

Carol firmly assured her as she squeezed Carla’s hand.

Finding the room empty made Carla fall into utter hopelessness. She initially thought she was going to find Terence. Now, his absence seemed to intensify the indescribable feelings gnawing within her.

Nathan scanned the room when his sharp gaze landed on the rope and a syringe, which were scattered carelessly on the ground. Picking them up, he cursed, “Shit! Mr. An was drugged. They shouldn’t have gone far…

This drug was a kind of sedative. People who were injected with it would lose consciousness and would suffer from side effects. Where could Mr. An possibly be?”

As soon as she heard Nathan’s words, Carla promptly approached him and asked, “Nathan, what are you saying? What’s this?”

“It is a sedative, Mrs. An. We must find Mr. An as soon as possible. He has been missing for two days, and we don’t know how many times he has been given an injection. If we don’t get him to the hospital in time, he might be in serious danger,”

Nathan frowned as he patiently explained to Carla, revealing the risk. More than two doses of this drug spelled nothing but the compromised safety of Mr. An risking an overdose.

Since the police had captured the goons that they found in the hideout, he must interrogate them.

“Nathan, please hurry! He won’t have gone too far…” Carla pleaded as panic gripped her after hearing what Nathan said. With clouded thinking, she rushed out of the hideout and started to search for Terence herself.

The sun was up. It was another beautiful day.

“Getting herbs again, Linda?”

an old lady greeted Linda, who was holding a bamboo basket with both hands.

“Yes, my mother felt much better after applying the new herbs. The doctor ordered me to pick them at this time. They are fresher in the morning,”

Linda cheerfully replied. After fixing the straw hat on her head, she waved goodbye to the old lady. Wearing a pair of black boots, she strolled up to the mountain.

The kind of herb she wanted was hard to find. It only grew in dense forests and had to be meticulously searche

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

“As long as I’m alive, I’m still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

would make him feel better within the day, but he noticed that his headache was only getting worse, especially when he tried to think about the recent events.

“Are you feeling any better? Do you need me to call George?”

Linda gently prompted with a concerned expression the moment she emerged through the door when she returned. She had noticed the contorted look on his face as tiny beads of sweat formed on his forehead. “George is the trusted doctor in our village. The medicine he prescribes is highly effective!” she softly explained to Terence.

“Or maybe I can go to his clinic and tell him about your situation so that he can give you some medicine. What do you think?” Linda quickly offered.

But Terence, who was squeezing his eyes tightly shut because of the pain, only got more annoyed, hearing her non-stop babbling.

“Shut up.”

Yes, he knew that she was only worried about him, and she was offering help. But he still felt terrible. He didn’t want to hear any sound. What he needed was silence.

Stunned for a moment, Linda could only lower her head and silently left the room without saying a word.

Not long after, she came back with a bowl of soup. “This can help you relax. Whenever my mother couldn’t sleep because of a headache, I cook this for her. Do you want to try it?”

Terence felt awful for the way he snapped at her earlier. Not only did Linda not get mad at him but also made soup for him, to help him ease the pain. He lifted his head and patiently regarded her. Linda had a round face, big eyes, and long black hair, tied in a ponytail. A typical country girl.

“Thank you. What’s your name?”

Terence gently asked as he raised his hand somewhat weakly to reach out and take the soup from her.

“I’m Linda,” She mumbled rather shyly as she averted her gaze while discreetly smoothing her hair.

Terence nodded lightly. Then he lowered his head to take a glimpse at the soup in his hand. With a sad grimace appearing on his face, he silently sipped the soup.
