Does current flow back to the source through earth?

We know that if Single Line to Fault occurs, then fault current flows to the earth. I want to know whether the current will return to the source or not. For the current to flow we need a closed path.

How it is possible for current to flow in a open circuit if you say that current does not return to the source.
