Rick going to Ray, to find Roy

Chapter - 137

Rick gripped the steering wheel as he drove through the bustling city streets, his mind racing with a whirlwind of thoughts. The lunch date with Amanda was a brief task done in the midst of a more pressing matter – finding out who had hurt Emily.

The system had slapped him with a 24-hour deadline, and he had already burned through 5 hours of that ticking clock. The clock was ticking, but Rick seemed oddly unfazed by the looming 24-hour deadline the system had given him.

The image of Emily lying on the ventilator bed, connected to machines, barely hanging to her life loomed in his mind. Whoever had messed with her was about to get a taste of their own medicine. Rick clenched his jaw, his grip on the steering wheel tightening.
