| fell again this time, and despair filled my heart.

"How are you guys doing? Can you cu p?" Nina's worried voice cfrom above.

Theo shouted, "The soil is too soft. Throw sthicker branches down here."

Later, his gaze fell on my face. He said with determination, "Don't worry, | won't leave you here."

| froze. | did not know how to explain this feeling.

A lot of branches were thrown down from above. Theo broke all of them and stuck them into the loose earth wall.

My eyes lit up. After figuring out what he was trying to do, I quickly broke the branches with him.

Theo bent down to search for stones in the dirt. Then, he knocked each branch into the earth wall very firmly.

After inserting the ones at the bottom, he climbed upward while continuing to insert branches into the earth wall.

Our distance grew farther apart and | could not hand him short branches anymore. | could only hand him a whole

branch, which he broke and knocked into the earth wall.

After the ones on top learned about his techniques, they stopped throwing whole branches. They broke them and

put them into a bag before lowering it with a rope.

Everyone worked together, which sped things up considerably.

Theo lowered his head to look atand said indifferently, "Try climbing up."

| nodded. "Okay."

It was not that difficult anymore when there was a place for the feet to land on.

Although | had never learned rock climbing, | was able to climb up by relying o n survival instincts.

The rain poured, and everyone was drenched.

Shannon's face was covered with rain or tears. She choked when she saw me. "Let's get out of here."

"Let's go. The rain is very heavy. There may be a landslide on the mountain at the back." Thaddea started urging

as well.

On our way back, thunder shook our ears a s the rain poured even heavier.

It was only until after everyone had run into the tents that we breathed a sigh of relief.

"There was a loud noise in the forest. The rocks from the mountain at the back may have fallen," Thaddea's

fiance said with palpitations.

Nina looked at Theo. "Where did you go, Mr. Grant? If it weren't because we needed to search for you, Wanda

wouldn't have been met with danger. We wouldn't have ended u p in this state either.”

After hearing what she said, everyone turned to look at Theo.

He lifted his head. His gaze was calm, and his voice carried no emotions when he said, "What happened tonight

was entirely my fault. I've put everyone's lives in danger. I'll treat everyone to dinner to make amends

tomorrow."

Seeing that Theo had apologized, Nina softened at once, as if just realizing who was truly responsible for this.

"We're not blaming you. Besides, it's not your problem."

Now that we were finally safe, my body relaxed and | was immediately washed over by weariness. My eyelids

grew heavy.

In the end, | could not hold on anymore and closed my eyes. My body fell backward.

Theo quickly held ontoand tookinto his arms.

"Are you okay, Wanda? Did you get hurt?" Shannon nervously asked, bending down besideto check my body.

Theo stopped her and said mildly, "She's just too tired. Her nerves were taut just

now, so she’s a little tired now that she has relaxed. She'll be fine after she rests.” 2
