Chapter 1129

Parker was quicker on his feet, making it to a flat area by a pile of rocks where he met up with the bodyguard.

The bodyguard didn't look too good, pointing to a steep slope on the side. "The walking stick was thrown down here. It looks like the old man might have tripped over a rock and tumbled down when he got up to move. I've checked it out; this side is a sheer cliff, no trees or anything to catch onto. The bottom could very well be the deepest part of the canyon."

"No, that can't be..." Whitney came running over, her face pale as she peered over the edge. Her heart sank, remembering the spot where her mother had fallen. How could she possibly bear more bad news now?

"Dad! Dad!" she shouted desperately into the abyss below.

Parker grabbed her arm, trying to steady her. He quickly instructed his team and the Sheldon family's bodyguards, "What are you waiting for? Go get some ropes and start looking down this cliff!"

Everyone sprang into action, some running back up the mountain to fetch the necessary tools.

Parker then got in touch with the Ethereal Mountain Road police, asking them to bring in search dogs at first light. He turned to Whitney, "Keep your mom's blood- stained jacket safe, and contact the Sheldon family to send over something your father wore often. Let the dogs catch their scents. This mountain is massive, and the canyon below is even more treacherous. We need to be ready to find both your father and mother."
