Chapter 322:
“What’s the matter?” Rupert shifted his gaze to Annabel, who was standing next to him. His eyes were filled with concern.
“Nothing,” Annabel answered, shaking her head.
But she was uneasy.
The sense of unease was so strong it felt as if something terrible was imminent.
“Are you still afraid of heights? Don’t be afraid. I’m right here with you,” Rupert said, holding her hand.
His gentle voice eased her greatly. She followed him into the jet, smiling.
The plane took off and quickly soared into the sky.
Annabel was lost in thought as she stared at the clouds through the window.
The benefit of this journey to France was discovering who was responsible for the Ice and Fire incident, which helped Benton Group get back on track and even rise higher.
“By the way, have Judson and Marilyn admitted to their crimes?” Annabel asked, looking at Rupert.
Rupert scowled. “Judson pleaded guilty to everything, while Marilyn insists that she is innocent p>
“I see,” Annabel replied thoughtfully. “It appears that Judson genuinely loves Marilyn p>
Unfortunately, Judson had allowed himself to be deceived by so-called true love and committed crimes.
Rupert grinned and made no comment.
“I’m not sure how much Love Jewelry is involved in this matter.” Annabel massaged her forehead.
Even though Judson had pleaded guilty to all of the charges, Annabel still felt that things weren’t that simple.
Rupert looked at her gaunt face and said softly, “Don’t overthink the situation. You have been exhausted during your time in France. Get some rest now p>

“Alright.” Annabel nodded. She was indeed exhausted, so she closed her eyes and rested.
Annabel finally nodded off after some time had passed.
The jet began to tremble slightly, then was tossed up and down.
The trembling awakened Annabel. She grabbed Rupert’s hand subconsciously. “Rupert, what is happening p>
“We might have run into a strong airflow.” Rupert gently held Annabel in his arms. “Don’t be scared. Just close your eyes. It will be over soon p>
Annabel felt reassured by Rupert’s warm embrace.
However, the plane continued to tremble more and more violently.
Rupert’s expression changed a few seconds later. The continual shaking was not caused by normal airflow. Something awful was about to happen.
Sure enough, a stewardess hurried over to him. “Bad news, Mr. Benton! The plane has lost control p>
What?
The jet was out of control?
