Chapter 157 He Refused to See Her
Twenty minutes later, Cora was about to leave for Autown.
Derek, the support team leader, was telling Cora some precautions, and there was only an e-bike before them.
The conversation between Cora and Derek went quite smoothly. But when she saw the e-bike, her eyebrows were furrowed obviously.
“Sorry, Dr. Lane. Most of the vehicles in the village are soaked by water and can’t work. I borrowed this e-bike from a
resident.”
Derek could see that Cora was very dissatisfied with the e-bike, so he could only explain it embarra*singly.
In fact, he could borrow a car, but Jane didn’t allow him to do
So.
Derek didn’t understand how a down-to-earth young woman like Cora offended Jane. He thought it was unfair but dared not disobey Jane’s order.
“Dr. Lane, you know how to ride an e-bike, right?” Derek asked when he saw Cora staring at the e-bike silently.

After orving in Clomville, she found the real situation was as she had expected. She was responsible for all the dirty and
thing work.
However, the previous ones were small tricks compared to riding on e-bike to Autown to get medicines.
But if she failed to get the medicine, they would probably give
her a hard time in her rotation a*sessment.
After taking a deep breath, Cora finally put on the safety helmet and got on the e-bike.
Before leaving, she looked at Byron’s tent.
He hadn’t come out since the two quarreled just now.
Now that she was leaving, many people had come out to tell her to keep safe. She believed that Byron in the tent knew she was heading for Autown.
But he still refused to come out to see her.

Cora knew that he was probably angry that she had refused his help.
However, what she did was a means of self-protection. She was afraid she would be unable to adapt to his absence and more miserable if he left her one day.
Thinking that they would end up being strangers, and even if Byron came out to see her off at this time, they could never change their ending, Cora let it go.
Then, she started the e-bike and left.
It wasn’t raining much when she set off.
But after entering the Autown, it rained heavily.
Even though she wore a safety helmet and a raincoat, she could feel her clothes had been soaked.
Soggy clothes were actually not a big problem. What really made Cora feel troublesome was that the further she rode to the villages of Autown, the higher the water would overflow.
At this moment, the water was about to come into her calves, and her e-bike would probably be scrapped if she went further in. Cora could only park the e-bike on the side, trying to enter the village on foot.

However, she hadn’t walked for long when a deafening sound suddenly came from the mountain on the other side of the road.
Cora looked over and widened her eyes in shock. She saw a
lot of mud and rocks on the top of the mountain rushing down with the rain.
Byron was smoking in the tent.
When Carter came in, he found smoke engulfing the tent.
“Miss Lane has gone to Autown.” Carter seemed to mention it unintentionally.
But Byron continued smoking quietly. Carter said, “She went there by an e-bike.”
Byron raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. “Don’t you have work? Do you want to go to a factory under the Hansen Group to make screws?”
“There are many screw factories in the Pope Group. I can go back to do it if I want to. Now I’m going to help the village chief bring in some bottled water.”
Carter picked up the car keys Byron put on the table. Then he
turned around and walked out of the tent. He said before

leaving, “You probably won’t use the off-road vehicle. I’ll drive to get bottled water.”
That off-road vehicle was specially modified to handle all
kinds of extreme weather.
They came here in that car this time.
Looking at his back which was drifting away, Byron finally put
out the cigarette butt. “I’ll use the car. You drive another car.”
