Julie said, “There was indeed a mudslide, but we were lucky. The direction of the mudslide wasn’t in the direction we ran, so we managed to escape.”
’No wonder! We’re really lucky!’ Nicole thought.
“But it was a close call. If Clayton hadn’t arrived in time to save us, we wouldn’t have been able to escape if the mudslide spread too widely.”
Yvette nodded. “I always thought that Clayton was treacherous and sly underneath his aloof front. It looks like I was wrong about him. I was scared to death when you fell unconscious. Fortunately, he arrived. Clayton knew the weather was bad but still came to find you because he was afraid that you’d encounter a mudslide. To be honest, I haven’t been moved by a man for a long time.”
Julie poked her head with a finger.
“1s this the time to make heart-eyes at someone?”
Yvette rubbed her head sheepishly and sat down beside Nicole.
“Anyway, the man appeared in that life-or-death situation. I feel like he’s completely flawless!”
Nicole’s chest trembled slightly.
Nicole thought about the man’s silhouette when she opened her eyes as she listened to Yvette and Julie’s words.
She did not know how he got there. She also could not imagine how he felt as he drove alone along the highway in the cold wind and heavy rain to look for her.
Nicole thought, ’What if he didn’t find us? What if he missed us? What if he was caught in the mudslide too?’
No matter which “what if” scenario it was, Clayton had put his life on the line to find Nicole.
It was no wonder Clayton had such a big reaction when Nicole tricked him into thinking that she had lost her memory.
’How sad would he be if I really forgot who he was?’ Nicole thought.
Julie said, “Now isn’t the time to talk about this. We’re still trapped in a nearby village. The mudslide blocked the road, so rescue vehicles can’t get in, and we can’t get out either.”
Nicole pursed her lips and looked around. “No wonder this hospital looks like this…”
The condition of this hospital could not be compared to the private hospitals in West City.
However, compared to last night’s conditions, this was considered heaven!
Yvette added, “Yeah… Clayton didn’t even think of how to get back when he came here. Do you feel touched enough t o devote your life to him now?”
Nicole’s heart prickled, but her expression was still pale and weak.
She looked at Yvette and said helplessly, “Do you?”
Yvette looked disappointed. She wanted to shake Nicole to see if she had a brain inside that head of hers.
However, she did not dare to.
“I was just touched. I don’t intend on putting myself on the hook. Besides, he came here for you. You really don’t get
the point!”
Julie was still calm.
“Don’t get hot-headed. She just got out of a failed
marriage. How would she fall back in so quickly? It‘s better i f she stays calm!”
Yvette pondered for a while and felt that what Julie said was also reasonable.
After all, the wounds that Nicole had suffered were too painful.
It was unbearable to look at.
Ian shrunk to the side and spoke up weakly. “Do you guys remember how supportive you were of Eric before?”
“Shut up!” Julie and Yvette spoke in unison.
Even Nicole could not help but give him a fierce glare. After glaring at lan, she felt dizzy.
Nicole calmed down. “But did you notify your families? My dad and brothers don’t know I went out…”
Julie nodded.
“They called a dozen or so times. I already told them. Grant couldn’t contact you at first, so he was quite anxious. He was heading here according to the location on your watch, but the road was closed, so he couldn’t enter. But he was relieved to know that you were okay. He said he’d come as soon as possible.”
Nicole nodded. That was good.
Ian said, “That mudslide was quite serious. I heard it washed a village away. The fate of more than 100 people inside is still unknown. We really got lucky this time…”
