Chapter 183 Stay Safe

\'I think I can bribe some people to not place any attention on my helicopter.\' Jack thought and took in a deep breath.

He turned around in his bead to think how he would be able to bribe the authorities. He has money, but he doesn\'t have any connections in the country.

\'I would have to start from the bottom and bribe everyone to the top, this may cause a lot of problems but this would be the only way if Elma doesn\'t help me.\' He thought and was about to get his notebook when his phone started to ring.

\'She called me sooner than I expected.\' Jack thought and looked at the phone screen and he was right, it was a call from Elma.

He took the phone up from the bed and picked up the call.

"Why are you so stubborn?" Elma\'s annoyed voice resounded from the other side of the phone just as he picked up the call.

Jack smiled at her words, but he kept his voice serious, he knew that Elma would call him again because she loved him.

And although she was berating him, it was only because she was worried for him and his safety.

"Are you gonna help me or not?" Jack asked in a neutral tone, right now it was more important for him to get help from her.

As it would cut down a lot of his work.

"You should have told me before you came here, I could have arranged everything." She said and sighed.

"You can\'t arrange it now?" Jack asked with his brows furrowed.

"No, it\'s not like that, I wouldn\'t have let you go in the first place, if you told me before," Elma said with a slightly annoyed voice.

She was still against him going to such a dangerous place.

Jack took a breath at her words. "You don\'t want this to be the last chat between us do you?" Jack said in a strict tone.

Although he knew that Elma was opposing him out of love, however, he was only doing this for her safety and his girls safety.

If he couldn\'t find the ring of power then chances of saving their lives would be slim to none and he might really fight with Elma if she doesn\'t help him even if she could.

"Why do you always threaten me?! I am only doing this for your safety." Elma opposed from the other side of the call.

Jack let out a sigh at her words. "Speak your next sentence carefully, as this could be the last time we speak to each other," Jack said in a slightly threatening tone.

He was ready to leave Elma if she couldn\'t help him this much without believing him.

When she heard his words and the serious tone behind them she turned silent for a few moments.

His voice reverberated in her head for a few seconds and then she bit her lip in frustration. She didn\'t want to put his life in danger.

And after helping him, if anything happens to him then she would not be able to forgive herself. As she would be the one who sent him to such a dangerous place.

\'He is serious, he might really never talk to me again.\' A furrow appeared on her head.

If she helped him then something might happen to him and in the worst case, she might even lose him forever. And if she didn\'t help him then he would never talk to her again.

It was hard for her to make a decision.

After about a minute of thinking, she sighed and finally spoke. "I will help you, but you have to promise me one thing," Elma said in a regretful tone.

"What?" Jack asked, slightly relieved.

"You have to wait a day for help," Elma said in a slightly lower voice than usual and there was a slight guilt in her tone, and Jack noticed it.

He stayed silent for a few seconds. "Are you gonna come to Nepal?" Jack asked.

Elma bit her lip again at his words, this was exactly what she planned she wanted to go to Nepal and be with Jack, she wanted to make sure he was safe every step of the way.

\'He found out about my true motive.\' Elma sighed.

"I will only help you if you let me come with you," Elma said as her tone raised a bit.

Jack listened to her and closed his eyes, he couldn\'t let Elma come with him, as the place was too dangerous in itself and on top of that other people like Rebecca might also come.

There could even be a fight among them and he didn\'t want anything to happen to Elma.

"I am sorry Elma. I will figure something out myself." Jack said and regretted the decision to call Elma in the first place.

He can\'t take her help if she puts up a condition like this.

"And why can\'t I come with you?!" Elma asked getting even more annoyed than before.

"Don\'t argue with me." Jack said, "Thanks for offering the help, I will see you when I return." He said again and was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait! Don\'t cut the call! Why can\'t you ever listen to me?" She said as tears formed in her eyes.

Guilt moved through Jack\'s chest when he heard her choked voice, he didn\'t want her to worry.

\'I should have never called her in the first place.\' He thought and turned silent while he kept the phone near his ear, listening to her words.

"I am coming there tomorrow," Elma said in a determined voice.

"No, you aren\'t." Jack sighed.

"And who will stop me?" Elma\'s voice got even more choked and Jack could tell that tears were falling from her eyes, just by her words.

"Elma..." Jack scratched his forehead for a second. "Do you love me?"

"What do you think?!" Elma said, this time sobbing.

"Then you have to believe me. This is something extremely important to me. I will do it no matter what, even if you help me or not. And no I can\'t take you there with me." Jack said and took in a deep breath.

He then continued again. "If you can understand me then please don\'t come here. However, if you do, then remember one thing, I won\'t be able to love you like before."

Jack told his heartfelt words, he tried to speak as much truth as he could.

Elma listened to his words and started sobbing even more, and after a minute of her continued sobs when Jack was about to speak something, her voice came again.

"OK, I am sending help, and I won\'t come. However, if anything happens to you then I will not forgive myself." She said and turned silent for a few seconds.

"I won\'t even be able to live without you, so remember that your life is more important than mine." She expressed her feelings too.

Jack listened to her and stayed silent, he knew what she meant, but, he couldn\'t let her come.

"I will keep that in mind and don\'t worry, nothing will happen to me," Jack reassured her.

"I love you..." Elma said suddenly from the other side of the call.

"Thanks, I love you too, we will meet again soon," Jack said in a relieved tone, and then a complicated emotion moved in his chest.

On one hand, he was happy that Elma was ready to help him, however, he was also sad that he had to make her cry to get a favour from her and he felt guilty about it.

\'I can\'t do anything about it, no matter what I can\'t take her with me.\' He thought to calm the strange feeling down.

"Stay safe," Elma said.

Jack smiled at her words, "I will be." He replied and hung up the call.

He then laid back on the bed again with his eyes closed. However, after about ten minutes, he woke up again.

"I am hungry." He felt empty in his stomach and stood up from his bed to get some food.

"Let\'s see the city while I wait for Elma to call back." Jack thought and nodded, he then stepped towards the door.

He decided to walk around the city and know the place more till Elma called again.

And he would be able to do two things at one time, not only would he be able to eat food, he would also be see the city.

He had heard that there were some good temples around the city.

Soon enough he stepped out of the hotel with some cash in his pocket and looked around the place.

....

"Madam he is out of the hotel."

Far away from Jack in a shop sat an old man with a phone in his hand, and he kept staring at Jack while speaking on the phone.
