Everything happened too quickly. The collapse behind them was like a devil that
followed them closely. Just as Ethan ran out, he saw an employee, scared and
supporting himself at the edge of the hole, panting. He had just been. knocked
down by the chaotic crowd. Now, hearing the rumbling behind him, he was
terrified.
“Run!” Ethan grabbed him and pulled him forward, but the employee was too
shocked to move his leaden legs. Ethan had no choice but to lift him up and
sprint ahead. His bodyguard also came to help. As if they were running away
from death itself, Ethan and the bodyguard carried the engineer and dashed
through the passage with intense falling rocks.
The main group ahead had already reached a stable area. The rescue team
captain urged everyone to leave at once while he stayed behind to cover their
retreat. When he looked back and saw the bodyguard carrying two people, he
shouted, “Where is Mr. Quarles? Is he still inside?”
The entrance was still shaking, with debris constantly falling. If someone was
inside, they would likely be buried alive. “Mr. Ethan!” The four bodyguards put
down the people they were carrying and ran toward the entrance.
“Come back!” The rescue team captain immediately stopped them. “Going in
there would be suicide.” “But Mr. Ethan and my comrades are still inside!” one
bodyguard roared worriedly. At this moment, their sense of duty and their bond
with their comrades pushed them to defy life and death.
Fortunately, the sound of footsteps came from inside the tunnel, and they saw
someone rushing out amidst the falling rocks. It was a bodyguard carrying a
young man. Their heads were injured to varying degrees. “Where is Mr. Ethan?”
“He's behind. Deo is injured, and Mr. Ethan is supporting him!” The bloodied
bodyguard with a broken head was still shaken. The rescue team captain also
caught his breath. He had been given the order to prioritize Ethan's rescue.
However, his target was still trapped inside the tunnel right then while everyone
else had come out safely..
Just then, footsteps were heard again, and everyone's hearts tightened. It was
Ethan! He appeared, supporting a bodyguard whose head and face were
bleeding. He was covered in dirt, with bloodstains on his forehead. However,
everyone heard a sound.
It was a terrifying noise from the depths of the tunnel. Ethan had never felt
despair in his life, but when he heard that sound, despair instantly spread
through his chest.
Boom! The tunnel completely collapsed behind them, with huge rocks falling.
Fortunately, just when Ethan felt hopeless, several hands appeared to take over
the bodyguard from his hands. But just as he reached out, a stone fell from
above, and darkness enveloped his vision. He dropped to the ground.
Mother, Father, Josephine, I'm sorry! It was Ethan's last thought before sinking
into darkness. “Mr. Ethan...”
The sky was already bright when the rescue team emerged, and several rescue
vehicles were parked nearby, receiving the injured. Suddenly, an urgent voice
rang across the space. “Emergency, emergency!”
Four people were seen carrying a stretcher and rushing toward an ambulance.
After opening the back door, the doctors waiting inside gasped with shock when
they saw the person being brought in. Good Lord! How could it be Mr. Quarles?
Why is he unconscious?
“Quick, save him.” The medical staff immediately began dressing the head
wound and cleaning the severe. abrasions on Ethan's body inside the vehicle.
The rescue mission came to an end as the vehicles headed toward the base.
Everyone returned to the base, exhausted, and rested. The crisis was finally
over.
Ethan was being brought to the medical room when Edward received the news,
and the latter rushed over with his subordinates but was impeded by the
emergency room door.
“Ethan, Ethan!’ Edward turned pale with fear, his voice trembling. “Where is
Ethan injured? How could it be so serious? Wasn't he unharmed?” Edward
turned. to the bodyguards. Despite also being injured, they were more concerned
about the safety of their young master.
