Jean quietly closed the window.
Then she turned around.
Sure enough, Ludwig was already standing nearby.

The boy’s skin was pale with a cool undertone, so white it was almost ghostly. He tilted his head, casually scanning the area.
“A hotel this high… You didn’t seriously climb the wall, did you?” Jean asked. She was genuinely surprised.
He had managed to get into my bedroom on the second floor without a problem, and now this?
He really is something else.
Ludwig tilted his head, the sharp curve of his dark hair catching the light. “You’ve really lost your memory. I’ve always been like this, haven’t I?
His lips curled quickly, like a meteor streaking through the night. “Is that so surprising?”
Jean dropped her eyes instinctively.
A
pang of guilt crossed her heart.
I hadn’t really lost my memory; I had taken over someone else’s body from a novel.
“What are you planning next?”
Ludwig didn’t dwell on the memory issue. Instead, he went straight to the point.
Jean’s expression tightened. “We need to confirm the crash site.”
Even though I knew the plane had crashed in a dense rainforest, Northara is full of them.
I can’t possibly search them all.
I need professionals to confirm it.
Just then, a sudden knock on the door.
Jean blinked in surprise.
It is probably Sienna.
She looked at Northara. He understood immediately and slipped quietly into a hidden corner of
the room..

When everything is over, I really have to reward him.
Jean crossed the room and opened the door; as expected, it was Sienna.
She was holding her phone, her fingers trembling slightly.
“They found it, the crash site.” Her voice was deep and tense, her eyes clouded with fear and anxiety.
Finding the crash site meant they were one step closer to finding out if Dominic was alive or dead.
Sienna didn’t want to face that.
But she knew she had to.
“Mom, are you nervous?” Jean asked softly, reading her emotions with case.
Her voice was soft, but it had a calming effect on Sienna’s shaken heart..
Sienna nodded. “Your brother…”
Her voice broke. Tears welled in her eyes. “I don’t know how he is… if he’s cold… if he’s in pain…. No matter what, I have to get him home. I’m just afraid… afraid it will be too horrible for me.
Jean saw how red her eyes were and gently pulled her into the suite.
She poured her a glass of hot water.
Sienna accepted it wordlessly, rubbing her hands around the warm mug.
“We’ll know when we see. Jean’s tone was steady, her eyes calm and grounded. “And if you’re afraid, just hide behind me.”
That one simple sentence somehow swept away the heavy shadows in Sienna’s heart.
She froze, then let out a soft breath.
“This is a little embarrassing,” she joked, her lips twitching into a faint smile.
“It’s not embarrassing at all,” Jean said, shaking her head. Her eyes shone with sincerity. “I’m not just here to observe. I’m here to help you. To help Dominic.”
She patted her shoulder. “So lean on me, Mom.”
Sienna’s eyes lit up.
Fhad lost count of how many times Jean had moved me lately.

But now Jean had become someone full of depth and light. Every part of her glowed with quiet strength.
A child like that deserved to be cherished by the whole family.
Not dragged into this mess with me.
The thought brought a pang of guilt.
This girl had traveled all the way to Northara just to be with me and even to comfort me….
Sienna couldn’t hold back. Suddenly she reached out and hugged Jean tightly.
Jean’s eyes widened in shock.
So suddenly?
We’ve never hugged like this before…
Hearing her thoughts, Sienna only tightened her hug.
We really hadn’t. Jean had always kept a distance.
I didn’t know why Jean had changed so much, but I love this new Jean.
“Mom,” Jean mumbled, her face buried in Sienna’s shoulder.
Sienna held on tighter. “Yes?”
“We have to go. It’s time to go.” Jean’s dark eyes looked up, her voice soft but firm.
Sienna nodded and let go.
The two quickly dressed and left the hotel.
According to the Federal Aviation Administration, the private airplane had crashed in the mountainous northern region of Northara.
That area was filled with dense forest and completely uninhabited. It was basically a wild jungle.
After a long drive, Jean and Sienna arrived at a small town near the mountains.
It was the closest settlement to the crash site.
Beyond that point was nothing but endless wilderness–dangerous and unexplored.
Jean and Sienna couldn’t go into the jungle alone. They stayed in town while professional rescue teams flew in by helicopter to search the area.
The wait was grueling.

Jean stood at the window, staring at the vast black forest in the distance,
It looked like a massive dark beast, ready to devour everything in its path.
Finally,
alter two long hours, word came from the rescue team.
They had found the wreckage of the private jet.
It was a huge relief..
But with the good news came something terrible. No signs of life had been found near the wreckage.
