Salute To The General

Chapter 1582

Tears welled up in Ava's eyes at her words. She realized she couldn't persuade Penny to leave.

Wiping her tears away, she regained her composure and shouted, “Everyone from Cross Group, listen. Let's help the kids who have fainted from inhaling too much smoke and Ms. Molven to get on the aerial ladder. We'll stay behind with Mrs. Cross.”

The others were touched by Penny's decision.

The executives immediately vowed to let the elderly and the young escape first.

Everyone put their act together to help out.

Soon, the aerial ladder descended with Dorthea and a few unconscious orphans.

The reporters clicked on their cameras furiously to record this scene. When the onlookers realized the first batch of rescued victims was coming down, they immediately cheered.

Curious, the reporters began reporting. “We received news that the president of Cross Group, Penny Smith, was trapped inside, alongside others from the orphanage. Why isn't she among the first ones to get rescued?”

The reporters were shocked, let alone Santiago and Phoebe, who were hiding in their car.
