Unfortunately, the two private jets owned by their family had been occupied.
"Robert, | want to get there right now as well, but if there's no other way but to wait for tomorrow's flight, that's what we will do!"
Ivy consoled him.
"I can't sit still." Robert had class that night, but he called in sick. He began packing his belongings as soon as he got home. He did
not eat when the servants brought him dinner.
"Robert, | know that you care for Layla a lot. Let's chat for a while!" Ivy said.
The servant standing next to them said, "lvy, why don't you and Robert have dinner? You need to keep your strength up if you
want to go to Cambrode tomorrow."
Ivy immediately grabbed Robert's hand. "Robert, | haven't eaten. Let's grab something to eat!"

Robert did not have an appetite, but since he was Ivy's older brother, he knew that he had to act strong.
The two arrived at the dining room, and the servants started serving dinner.
Ivy did not have much appetite and picked up a spoon to sip on her soup.
"Is it good?" Robert asked.
"Yeah! Do you want to try?" she said.
"Sure!" Robert did not feel like eating as well.
"Robert, tellabout you and Layla!" Ivy had not heard about their childhood and was extremely curious about it.
"Layla's childhood was filled with memories of Hayden and Uncle Eric, and my childhood was filled with memories of her. Mom and
Dad spent a lot of twithas well, but | spent more twith Layla because | preferred to play with her. Maybe because she
has always been kind of meant to me."
"lI don't think she did so on purpose, did she?"
"I'm a lot younger than her and kept making mistakes. It's not that | made mistakes on purpose, but | just kept making them
anyway. | would sometimes draw on her homework, play with her stuff and lose it..."
"Well, that explains it. If | had a younger brother like you, | would have been mean as well." Ivy forced a smile.
"She would always bringto tears and consoleafterward. | would sometimes make her angry on purpose so that she would
gentle and has always been great to me..."
He did not quite remember how she had cared for him but said, "l annoy her most of the time, but she would allowto stay by
her if | insist on staying with her."
"l envy you, Robert." Ivy could tell how deep their love for each other ran. "If only | grew up with you guys."

"I think we would be really close if you grew up with us because we are around the sage." Robert felt slightly better. "We all
think that it's a miracle that you cane back to us."
"A miracle will happen to Layla as well," Ivy said. "I know she will be fine."
"Yeah."
Meanwhile, in Cambrode, Elliot and Avery had arrived and the rescue team had briefed them on the mountain situation.
"These are sof the photos taken by the rescue helicopters. We can't see the bodies... Most of them are covered by snow. The
mountain is gigantic and far too steep, which makes the rescue mission extremely difficult. We are understaffed, and I've already
requested my superior to call in more people for help."
"This photo was taken in the afternoon yesterday. That's the cable car that goes up to the mountain." The person in charge showed
Elliot another photo.
