"It was nothing."
Obviously, Carlo weakened instantly.
Rainie didn't accept this answer, so she grabbed his collar and asked slowly, "Do you swear that it was really nothing? That you didn't say something happened to Thomas? Carlo, do you think I'm deaf? Or do you think I'm a fool?"
As she spoke, tears welled up in Rainie's eyes.
A strong woman like her had suddenly become a fragile doll at this moment, and this made Carlo want to slap himself.
Seeing that this matter could no longer be kept under wraps, Mango could only step forward and pull back Rainie's hand. Then, she led her to sit down and said in a low voice, "Something happened to Thomas in the battle abroad. After their assault team completed their mission, the military lost contact with them. It's already been three days and there hasn't been any news from them yet. Many people think that they might be..."
"That's impossible!"
Rainie rejected this subconsciously, but tears started to stream down her face.
Mango knew that she was upset, but there was no other way. She could only hope that Rainie could hold on.
No one knew what to say, and the corridor immediately became extremely quiet.
When the doctor opened the door, he was stunned for a moment, but he still whispered, "The Sixth Princess is fine. She just needs some rest."
"Thank you, doctor."
Carlo reacted at once and hurried inside.
Seeing how much Carlo cared about Prisca, Walter asked curiously, "Are they a couple?"
"Carlo and Prisca grew up together. They were childhood sweethearts. Carlo treats everyone with contempt, but he treats Prisca very well. When Prisca was in danger back then, Carlo was abroad, otherwise, he would never have let her get hurt in the slightest."
Tristan was familiar with them, so he quickly explained it to everyone.
Rainie was in a bad mood, so Mango could only leave the others and accompany Rainie back to her room.
"Don't think too much about it. Nathan said that no news might be good news for now, which means there is still hope that they are alive."
Rainie was in a trance.
She knew clearly why Walter and she were separated. She didn't manage to catch up with Thomas' helicopter back then, and she couldn't even contact Thomas when she was pregnant. Now that he was in danger, she couldn't help him either.
From the moment Thomas left, Rainie felt that she and Thomas were living in two different dimensions. Now, she didn't care about anything and wanted nothing, she just wanted to break through the barrier between these two worlds and find her loved one.
Rainie wiped away her tears and whispered to Mango, "Mango, I want to go look for him."
"Are you crazy? It's a battle abroad! No one can go there! Besides, it's very harsh there, and now that you are like this..."
"I'm going to find him! I'm going to find him with our child!"
Rainie was very stubborn, and once she made a decision, no one could stop her.
Mango knew this, but she still wanted to convince Rainie when she heard her whisper, "If something happens to Nathaniel, will you not do anything?"
Mango suddenly choked with sobs.
She turned her head away and for the first time, she was hesitant about whether she should let Rainie go.
In the end, Mango called Denver and Desmond.
After the two of them heard about Thomas, Denver did not say anything. Obviously, he wanted to accompany Rainie there, but Desmond spoke up.
"Let her go. It's not good to cling onto hope so much, but what's the point of living without any hope?"
Since both of them had said so, Mango had no reason to stop Rainie now.
Then, she called Merle and the others from the Dark Night Empire and ordered them to escort Rainie abroad.
When Nathaniel heard that Rainie was going to find Thomas, he knew that he could not stop her. Therefore, he also sent some people to protect Rainie, hoping that she would be safe.
Denver did not say anything, but packed up his things and handed over his business affairs. It looked like he was going to accompany Rainie to the end, to which Rainie had no objection.
Anaya had also decided to go with Rainie after getting Queena and Dennis' permission.
Originally, Mango had wanted to follow her, but there were still many things she needed to do here. Meanwhile, Rainie had also stopped Mango from going, forcing Mango to stay behind. However, Mango was constantly worried and even apologetic.
Rainie held her hand and said, "Don't worry about me and don't be sad because you can't go with me. Mango, you have to live a happy life. Everyone has their own persistence and things they care about, and I am willing to do anything for the one I love. I hope that you can understand me." "Rainie!" Mango held on to Rainie tightly as she sobbed uncontrollably.
