His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 419

Tessa did not have the habit of memorizing people's phone numbers. After all, her friends' and family's numbers were saved in her contacts.

Whenever she needed to reach someone, she would just scroll through her contacts and make the call.

She never expected to find herself stuck in such a situation.

Her phone was broken, and Wynn's phone was dead. Since she could not remember anyone's number, she would not be able to make any calls even if she borrowed Melody's phone.

Melody felt extremely guilty. "I wouldn't have called you here if I knew there'd be a flood. Mike and I should have traveled to Rivertown instead."

"Don't say that. If you and Mike had traveled to Rivertown, who would have looked after your son?" Tessa replied.

Melody's son was only two years old and needed constant care. Mike's parents were no longer around, and Melody's mom could not help Melody either as she was frail and chronically ill.

It was precisely because of her son that Melody had asked Tessa to come to their town instead.

The weather had been bright and sunny on the day Tessa had arrived. The weather forecasts had also predicted sunny skies for the next three days.
