Chapter 1178

Shannon?

I quickly got up and said to Jordan and Theo, "I'm sorry, Mr. Grant and Mr.

Fredericks. I'd like to excuse myself for a moment.

Jordan nodded and got up from the chair a s well, leaving the conference room with m e.

Seeing the anxious look on Krayden's face, I asked a little worriedly, "What happened?"

"A base is being built near the orchard.

When the lady went to pick fruits in the orchard, she accidentally fell into the base we dug earlier,"

Krayden said while hurrying forward.

I was a little puzzled. "If it's a base, then it shouldn't be too deep. You can just help her up. Did she

hurt herself somewhere?"

Krayden shook his head. "It's more serious than that. There has been a lack of parking spaces, and

using a random plot of land as a parking lot would be a waste, so we decided to build a parking lot

under the base."

My heart sank. This meant that the base would have been dug very deep.

"Have they brought her up?" I asked with concern.

Krayden sighed. "I’m not sure about that. The lady was still down there before I arrived. She

seemed unconscious and may have been lifted up now, but she probably won't survive this

unscathed."

The road near the orchard was more difficult to tread on, so Krayden and I trotted all the way to the

site.

Seeing that many people were gathered around, I quickened my pace.

Shannon had already been lifted up. The medical staff had also rushed over to perform emergency

treatment on Shannon.

Seeing Shannon lying on the stretcher with her eyes closed, I asked with a trembling voice, "How is

she doing now?"

"She has probably hurt her head. It's hard t o give a conclusive diagnosis right now. We’ll only know

after going to the hospital," a medical staff replied.

Soon, the medical staff lifted Shannon into the ambulance and went to the hospital.

Krayden dispersed the crowd. I walked to the place where Shannon fell and looked down. It was

indeed very deep.

There were many fruits spoiled from the fall, and they were probably fruits that Shannon picked.

Why did she come here when she was supposed to be picking fruits in the orchard?

The road was difficult to tread on with the construction works going on here, and ordinary people

would not have come here.

Jordan went to the hospital as well. After Theo arrived and saw me looking down into the base, he

asked a little curiously," What are you looking at?"

I pursed my lips and looked up at him." Why do you think Shannon came here?"

He raised his eyebrows. "You have to ask her that."

I did not say anything else and lowered my head to ponder.

The project was temporarily halted due to the series of incidents that had happened a s well as

Shannon’s unique identity.
