Chapter 182 Everest

Chapter 182 Everest

Rebecca took in a deep breath to calm herself down, however, she never thought that a guy would act like this in front of her.

Soon she turned around and moved to her seat, she didn't wanna talk to anyone right now and stayed silent at her place.

And with this, the rest of their trip was completed.

Getting out of the terminal, Rebecca looked at Jack one final time and then sat in a black car that was specially prepared for her. While Jack on the other hand took a taxi.

He wanted to go to Kathmandu as it was the nearest city to the airport.

And it was about sixteen kilometres away from the airport, so it didn't take long for Jack to reach the city, in half an hour he even booked a room for himself and placed all his bags.

"I hope this doesn't take long." He thought and sighed. He booked a decent room in the place, and although the country was small, the room was still good and the environment was strangely calming.

His eyes landed on the bed and without any thought he sat on it and took out his map and the books.

In his hand was the map of Kathmandu and its nearby locations and one of the places was marked on the map.

"Everest..." Jack looked at the marked location and it was near Mount Everest base camp, about one-fifty kilometres away from his current location.

He quickly pulled out his phone and searched for the location and took in a deep breath when he saw the images.

There were many people in the base camp photos and it would be hard for him to teck on the mountain to get to his location.

From the base camp, his location was about five kilometres away, "Just trekking to my marked spot would take me about three to four days."

"And although I can take a helicopter it might alert people like Rebecca and I don't want anyone to interrupt me." He said and sighed.

After searching a bit more he decided to book a helicopter to the base camp and from there he decided to go on foot.

"This would be a dangerous mission." He sighed again. "However I have to do it to keep my girls safe."

Even going to the base camp was a hard thing to do, it was about seventeen thousand feet of altitude and he would need oxygen tanks to be there and then he had to travel towards his location alone on top of that.

And he didn't even consider the tourists and the security that might stop him from going there.

'I can't do this alone. I will need some help...' He sat silently in the bed contemplating, just by his research he could tell that doing it on his own would bring out a lot of trouble and he didn't want that to happen.

It might even involve local authorities and he didn't wanna get in a fight with police from another country.

"Should I call Elma and ask for her help? She might be able to do something." He thought for a few minutes.

He couldn't recall anyone other than Elma who could help him in this situation, she was the only one who was powerful enough to help him in another country.

But he was sure that she would be angry that he lied to her before coming here.

"I can't do this without her..." After thinking for a few minutes he concluded that there was no way he could achieve his mission without Elma's help.

Because if he did all this alone then not only would he have to face local authorities even some tourists might spot him and won't let him go far away.n(-o/-V)-e((l()B(-1-(n

Every year many people die on Mount Everest averaging about three to four deaths per year.

And because of this many climbers have become alert and try to help anyone who is taking any wrong steps.

And Jack wanted to go on his own from the base camp and he was sure that someone would try to stop him.

And although climbing to the camp was a hard thing, because of the popularity of Everest, many people have started to come here.

According to Jack's research, it would not be surprising to find hundreds of tourists at the place.

A sigh moved out of his mouth and he took out his phone from his pocket, he connected it to wifi and decided to call Elma.

As she was the only one that has any chance of helping him.

"I was missing you too," Elma said from the other side just as she picked up the call. "Thanks for calling." She said again, she was grateful that Jack called her.

"Thanks for picking up the call," Jack said he wanted to please her as the news he was about to tell her would definitely make her angry.

"I will always pick your call up, no matter how busy I am." She said from the other side.

"Elma," Jack called out her name in a serious tone.

"Yes?" Elma could also sense some distress in his voice and her spine straightened, she started listening to him attentively.

"I need your help," Jack said in a deep voice.

When Elma listened to his words a furrow appeared on her face. "What happened? Did you get in any sort of trouble in Japan?" She asked in a worried tone as her heart started beating at a rapid pace.

She was in love with Jack and couldn't bear it if anything happened to him, even if it cost her everything she would do anything to keep him safe.

"I lied to you." Jack sighed as a guilty expression appeared on his face.

"Lied?" Elma furrowed her brows, she didn't know what Jack was talking about and when he lied to her, her brain started firing at a rapid pace and she started thinking of the things he could lie about.

'Could it be that he doesn't love me and lied to me that he does?' Suddenly a thought moved to her brain and her heart skipped a beat.

If that was the case then it would break her heart, however before getting too emotional she maintained her calm and wanted to listen to his words first.

'Is this the reason he went to Japan, so he can break up with me on the phone?' Her thoughts started moving in all sorts of places and tears almost formed in her eyes.

"Tell me fast, what happened?" She asked, worry audible in her voice.

She was so focused on his words that she forgot the reason Jack called her in the first place. He needed help from her, so why would he break up with her? If it was help he wanted.

"Calm down I need your help." Jack tried to calm him down.

And it was only after she heard his words did she calmed down and realised that he called her to ask for help. 'I am getting so emotional nowadays.' She thought and bit her lip.

"Yes, what do you need, I have some connections in Japan." She murmured in an apologetic tone.

"I am not in Japan, but in Nepal," Jack said directly without beating around the bush he wanted to get this over with as soon as possible and wanted to know if Elma could help him or not.

"What?!" Elma blurted out, slightly surprised by his words. "What do you mean Nepal? Weren't you going to Japan?" She asked with her brows furrowed.

"I lied. You know that I love Rock climbing right?" Jack has previously told Elma about his passions and how he wanted to climb some difficult peaks.

"Yes, and?" Elma's tone started to get more and more impatient.

"Actually I discovered a new location near Mount Everest base camp and I would need some people to help me reach there." He said.

Elma listened to him and took in a deep breath. "Isn't it dangerous to trek on Everest and you want to climb some hill near the base camp that you discovered? Have you gone insane?" She said slight annoyance and worry could be heard in her tone.

Jack stayed silent at her words for a few seconds he was in no mood to argue with her.

"This is my passion." He said.

"Please don't be stupid, we are talking about Risking your life! Please come back." Elma was not interested in hearing anything from him.

She wanted him back safe and sound and didn't want him to do anything that might put his life in danger.

Jack thought for a moment and then spoke up. "Can you help me or not?" He asked, this time in an annoyed tone.

"No, I won't! Get back here right now, we need to talk about this." She said in a desperate voice.

Jack sighed at her words. "OK then don't call me again, I will do it on my own." He threatened her a bit and hung up the call.

He could tell that this was the only way he could get help from her.
