They were ready to climb down directly from the window and launch the rescue operation. The safety rope around their waists was the only thing preventing their death. On these high floors, taking on this task was impossible without strong mental resilience and agile skills. Bodyguard Pearton discreetly glanced down. He could see Natalie exposing half of her body. Quickly, Pearton withdrew his gaze and checked his safety equipment.A teammate beside him nudged his arm, communicating softly, "See anything?""Natalie is already at the window edge, it looks very dangerous," Pearton replied."Our two men below her are also ready. We are just waiting for Mr. Wood's command," the teammate said.Pearton pondered for a few seconds. "It's difficult for the ones below to act. Climbing is challenging, but if we climb down, it'll be easier."The teammate replied, "Don't act on your own. Let's wait for his command."Looking around and seeing everyone outside the door, the teammate spoke
Mrs. Wood's son was in danger; Pearton must go to rescue him. He was willing to risk his life to save him.He wanted to repay the debt.As he was thinking about it, the captain gestured at the door, signaling them to stand by and not act recklessly. Pearton and his teammates nodded simultaneously. At this moment, a cry came from downstairs, followed by the sudden sound of a child crying. What was going on? Pearton's heart tightened, and he immediately ran to the window to look down.He saw Natalie's body already hanging halfway out, ready to fall at any moment. The child she was holding, Joshua, was crying. Natalie had broken Joshua's wrist. "You dare to bite me! Pah, little bastard, with only one breath left, you still think about resisting? Biting me, so what? You weak kid, you didn't even leave a bite mark!" Natalie scolded."If you dare to move again, I'll break your other hand too!" Joshua's arm hung weakly at his side, swaying without any strength. The pain from f
No matter how others tried to correct how he referred to her, he did not stop. Mommy was the most precious treasure in this life! His little treasure was Nicole, his sister; he was her big brother, responsible for protecting his baby sister. Hearing him call 'Mommy', Gale knelt down with a thud. Could this be their final farewell? "If... if there is another life, I still want to be your son," Joshua said, smiling. His smile resembled Shawn's. You are a great and wonderful Mommy." "If I die, I know you'll be sad for me. You'll remember me, and you'll come to see me every year. But Mommy, you have to live well, okay? Don't be too sad because of me." "You and Shawn can have more children; you're still young. Nicole can have a big brother. Goodbye, Mommy, and... Dad… Dad..." Saying this, Joshua grinned, revealing teeth stained with blood. Joshua always remembered what Nicole told him about Daddy's strength. He could lift her with one hand and even carry her over his head. She
If she continued, the Young Master was as good as dead! Even though the chances were slim, Pearton must try! Trying was the only way! Pearton's sudden appearance catches everyone off guard, and even Shawn's pupils contract in shock at this unexpected turn of events! He did not give the order, so could this bodyguard act on his own! However, Shawn did not have time to dwell on these matters. The events unfolded too quickly, catching everyone off guard.Natalie fell to the ground, her heavy body pressing on Joshua. She was dizzy and disoriented.Pearton's kick was forceful. After a couple of coughs, Natalie started to cough up blood profusely! Despite spitting blood, Natalie still clung tightly to Joshua's neck, firmly in control and unwilling to let go easily! Seeing this, Shawn immediately rushed forward. The best time to save Joshua was by using the chaos! Given his proximity, Shawn took three quick steps to the window and tried to snatch Joshua from Natalie's embrac
By then, Shawn had Joshua safely in his arms. However, Natalie, ruthless and frenzied, refused to give up, "Don't go, Joshua! We are supposed to die together!" She wanted to drag Joshua off the building.At that moment, Pearton viciously grabbed Natalie's arm with both hands, turned around, and jumped out of the window. He used the sudden momentum to drag her down.Natalie had no time to react; her whole body was yanked out of the window by Pearton, and they vanished.Silence fell to the ward, leaving only the sound of rushing wind and the sight of the curtain blowing up. After a moment, Gale struggled to climb up and looked down. "Pearton… Pearton, it's you!" she murmured.The thrilling scene left everyone dumbfounded. Pearton still had a safety rope attached to him. After falling about seven or eight meters, he stopped in mid-air and hung there. Natalie held onto his safety rope tightly, still gripping that knife.Pearton was bleeding. He bit his teeth so hard that h
Shawn had already arranged for bodyguards to go to these two floors and initiate a rescue operation. They had very high hopes. After all, Pearton had a safety rope on him so he would not fall and could survive.Pearton also understood he had a chance at survival. However, Pearton looked down at Natalie, who was holding onto him tightly, her face full of greed and a desire to live."Gale will save you. Undoubtedly, she will save me too. Hehe, as long as you live, I can live. If you die..." Natalie said.Natalie would not let go. She wanted to wait for the rescue team to arrive.Natalie was like an octopus, clinging onto Pearton. The safety rope could not withstand the weight of two people. Moreover, the rope was attached to him, and Natalie had no protective gear on her. "Let go, let go… You should have died! Even if I die, I won't die with a woman like you!" Pearton started to pry Natalie's fingers apart."Hahaha, but now, we are one. We will fall together!" Although Pea
Pearton and Natalie fell like leaves.Their free fall only lasted a few seconds.Gale watched it unfold with wide eyes. The rescue trampoline on the ground now had two black figures on it. They looked like ants, but they were two living people. Slowly, blood began to seep from them, quickly staining a large area. The bright red blood looked so chilling.Gale felt like her eyes were also tainted red; everything she looked at was shrouded in a red haze. "Pearton..." All her strength seemed drained, and she closed her eyes, unable to bear watching anymore. Why, in the end, did someone have to pay the price of their life for Natalie's madness? Why? Natalie's death was no loss; she reaped what she sowed. But Pearton... Pearton was such a good person! Gale did not want anything to happen to Pearton either! She propped herself up on the windowsill and stood up, wanting to go downstairs and look at Pearton... However, everything went black before her, and Gale fell to the ground.
Shawn pressed the elevator button, and coincidentally, Aurum reached out to press it too. Shawn glanced at Aurum, mocking, "You're indeed just as I imagined, more concerned about Natalie." "Natalie is dead," Aurum said calmly. His tone sounded as if he was discussing the weather. He was well aware that Natalie, falling from such a height, had no chance of survival."She deserved to die. She got off too easily!" Shawn replied."She's already dead." "You were there; I don't need to explain to you what happened. You didn't say a word or lend a hand when it was needed!" Shawn said coldly.Aurum said with a sense of helplessness, "I can't do anything. I can't save Natalie, can't save Joshua. I can't save anyone; I can only watch from the sidelines. I... I'm so useless." He was like a spectator, watching scenes unfold one after another before him. Pearton descended from the sky, altering the outcome. Joshua lost too much blood and passed out. Pearton and Natalie fell together. Gal
