Linda tried to snap her ankle back into position, but a sharp pain instantly shot up her leg as soon as

she tried to move her ankle. She raised her head and looked into the sky. It was already afternoon, and

the fog had started to rise in the mountain. Due to her experience in hiking, she had chosen a track that

no one had ever taken before.

It occurred to her that she was going to get stuck in the mountain!

She quickly pulled her phone out of her backpack, but there was no signal there.

She tried to stand up, but she could barely stand up, even if she tried to grab the tree beside her.

Linda panicked. There was no one else on this mountain, and as the sky got darker, she could hear the

cries of the animals.

Her scalp tingled, and tears began to gush out of her eyes uncontrollably. She turned the phone on and

off to find a signal, but the battery of the only phone that could save her life was running out.

She dragged herself forward on the ground and tried her best not to make any sound that might attract

the wild animals.

However, she could not even differentiate the direction, so how was she going to get out of this

mountain by herself?

Just when Linda felt hopeless, she heard a series of hurried footsteps.

She held her breath, and her hair all stood up.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer until they stopped right before her. She was stunned, and

then a hand appeared out of thin air.

The fingers were long and slender, the bones were well-defined, and the skin was fair. It was a very

beautiful hand.

Linda was stunned, and then she met glance with a pair of gentle eyes.

“It’s you?” She was shocked. “Dr. Stafford?”

“What’s the matter? You look surprised,” asked Seth, a smile dancing on his lips. He squatted next to

her and tried to lift her injured right leg.

“Argh!” Linda yelped out in pain. “Dr. Stafford, it hurts!”

“Relax,” said Seth. He touched her ankle a few times, and after ascertaining her condition, he said,

“Your joint just dislocated. You didn’t hurt your bone. Don’t worry. I’ll help you put it back in place. You’ll

be fine soon!”

“Huh? You—”

Before Linda could say anything, Seth grabbed her ankle and twisted it.

She felt that there was a fire burning her ankle. She bit her lips tightly, and her face turned pale.

Droplets of cold sweat were oozing out of her forehead. Seth grabbed her ankle and twisted it a few

times again, and she could only put it up with the pain.

The way she endured the pain aroused Seth’s curiosity about this woman.

“You really are a tough woman.” Seth chuckled. “When I was treating my patients in the past, and if

they were young girls, the entire emergency room would be filled with their screams.”

Linda’s lips were turning purple because she was biting them so tightly. She released them slowly, took

a deep breath to calm herself down, and said, “It’s getting darker. There are a lot of wild animals here,

so do you expect me to scream and attract those wolves?”

Seth looked at her and smiled.

She tried to move her ankle. Although it was still very painful, it was a lot better than earlier. Seth

helped her to her feet.

She grabbed her hiking stick with one hand while holding his arm with another. Then, both of them

slowly limped down the mountain.

“I don’t have my instruments with me, so I can only give you some basic treatment,” said Seth. “Your

ankle is swollen, so remember to put some ice on it when you get home. Also, don’t do any strenuous

exercise for a few days so that the joint doesn’t get dislocated again.”

“Okay.”

Seth thoughtfully helped her to move the tree branches out of her way and encircled her in his arms.

Since he was a doctor, he carried a faint disinfectant smell on his body. Linda chuckled secretly. When

she was a child, she was most afraid of this smell, but now…

“What are you laughing at?”

Linda was stunned. She raised her eyes and looked at the handsome face. It seemed like there were

stars in his gentle eyes.
