Chapter 156
Amber answered, “Somerset Mountain. Why?”
“Hudson Pharmaceuticals has funded children from Somerset Mountain?”
“Yes, we have been doing it for more than 20 years.”
“How could it be? I remember there wasn’t anyone left after the fire.”
“The fire?” She was slightly stunned. “Justin, how did you know there was a fire in Somerset Mountain?”
A frown came to Justin’s face as he feigned indifference. “It was on the news. I happened to watch it.”
Amber nodded. “Yes, it was exactly because of the fire that the whole mountain was reduced to ashes. I heard someone almost died too. My dad said that there was a hidden village in Somerset Mountain and it was home to some human traffickers. They were trying to escape security checks, so when the fire happened, they couldn’t be rescued on time.”
Justin clenched his fists tighter. “That’s what your father told you?”
“Yes, those traffickers hid in a ditch and the firemen didn’t even know there were people there. They managed to find them in the end, but a little girl almost died in the process.”
“Almost died?”
His expression changed.
“She was burned badly, but she managed to survive. My dad did everything he could to save her by sending her to hospitals all over the country. In the end, she was even sent abroad to receive treatment.”
Amber didn’t manage to finish her words before Justin grabbed her hand to interrogate her, “Where is she now?”
“She… she’s still out of the country.”
“What’s her name?”
“Justin, what came over you?”
“What’s her name?” he repeated.
“Katherine Cooper.” Amber’s features were distorted in pain. “Justin, let me go! What happened to you?”
Justin’s cold face was stiff as he struggled to believe his ears.
