Chapter 592

Selena slowly blinked her eyes open, still groggy from sleep.

"What's going on?" she asked.

Ricky gestured toward the TV. "Sis, didn't you say Mateo's camping at Peace Mountain? The news is reporting a wildfire broke out there last night. The area is dense with trees, and with tonight's strong winds, the fire's spreading fast-"

Wildfires had become more frequent in recent years, but Selena never imagined one would strike so close to home.

Watching the news, her heart thudded loudly in her chest.

She quickly reached for her phone, checking her messages. The parents' group chat was in a frenzy.

Everyone was demanding updates from the site, desperate to know if the kids were safe.

These were influential parents, and the school knew better than to ignore them. The principal quickly reassured everyone in the chat, explaining the situation.

He said they had evacuated the children as soon as the fire was spotted. Emergency services were on their way, with ambulances waiting at the mountain's base. They promised to do everything possible to keep the kids safe and urged parents to stay calm. Despite the comforting words, no parent could truly relax knowing their child was in danger. They all rushed to the scene.
