Chapter 99 Escaping From Danger

Betty was shocked. She looked up and saw a

figure running through the licking flames.

“Jeffrey!” She shouted with excitement, but

her voice had long been hoarse. “I’m

here…here.”

The man heard her response and

immediately ran over.

But the fire at the door was so big that he

couldn’t get in at all. He wanted to use the

extinguisher, but it was out.

Betty sank back into despair.

It seemed that God really wanted to destroy

her.

But at this time, she suddenly saw Jeffrey throw away the fire extinguisher in his hand and rushed directly through the fire into the

room.

Betty screamed, “Jeffrey, no!” Her head was

buzzing with pain.

She couldn’t believe her eyes.

She couldn’t even believe Jeffrey just jumped.

into the fire so crazily like that.

He must be mad.

Or maybe he just wants to save me.

“What a fool he is!”

Th

Thinking of this, she bit her lips harder.

Tears trickled down her cheeks. Then it was

soon dried by the high temperature.

“What a fool!”

But it’s not worth it!

She was no longer his girlfriend any more.

She couldn’t believe he would still do

anything to save her.

By this time, Jeffrey had reached her,

breaking out of the besiege of the fire.

Betty saw that his shirt was burned in several places, revealing the scorched skin beneath

it.

She was terrified and quickly patted him with

her blanket to put out the flame on him.

But Jeffrey just looked stern. He quickly got

beneath the blanket without delay. Then he

held Betty in his arms and rushed towards

the door again.

He is much taller than Betty, so she would

not be exposed to the flames if she was held

by his arms.

But it was different for Jeffrey. Although he

had the blanket, the fire could still burn him. She heard him humming with pain when

they ran.

Betty could not stop shivering all over her body, but she knew that she must summon her courage and not be emotional at that

moment.

Jeffrey did everything for her. It was because of her stupidity and complacency that made the two of them suffer in such danger.

She was determined to make it and get out of the burning house.

Thinking of this, she tried her best to

cooperate with Jeffrey, and ran. Together they rushed out of the corridor. However, most of the stairs had been burned down by

the firestorm.

Almost without hesitation, Jeffrey hugged Betty tightly and jumped down the stairs as

soon as he turned around. He did it specially to let his back land first, so that when he landed, he could make sure she wouldn’t get

hurt.

Although the stairs were not high, his back

was burnt with wounds. When he fell onto

the ground, Betty heard his agonizing moan. She could imagine how painful it was even

though he had tried hard to constrain it.

She grit her teeth and tears were still dropping down her cheeks.

But Jeffrey, as if he didn’t care about his own

safety, stumbled to his feet after falling to the ground and pulled Betty up with him. They ran outward together.

But after they took a few steps, he almost fell

down.

“That’s enough, Jeffrey,” Betty held him and said hoarsely, “Let me help you out.”

She found that the fire on the first floor was much smaller than that on the second floor. Although it was a bit exhausting for her to drag Jeffrey out, they still managed to leave the house. Her lip was cut because she bit it too hard. They were finally safe outside.

As soon as she went out, she noticed that the flames had attracted the attention of the residents in the nearby villas. Someone had called a fire engine and an ambulance for them. In the moment Betty and Jeffrey went out, the people around the villa exclaimed

with relief.

The firemen were just about to come into the property at this time. And they were all stunned when they saw them rushing out. The paramedics hurried over to carry the survivors into the ambulance.

Betty felt so dizzy at that time. But she still held herself together, grabbed the fireman’s Chapter 99 Fanning From Dongor

sleeve and whispered, “is he…alright?”

She didn’t have time to check out Jeffrey’s condition when she was busy dragging him.

out of the fire.

When the fireman realized what she asked,

he took a quick examination of him and said,

“Don’t worry, ma’am. He doesn’t have a big

problem. He just passed out.”

Betty sighed with relief and fell to the ground.

with fatigue as well.

When Betty woke up, she found herself already in the hospital ward.

Beside the bed, Peter was sitting next to her.

“Mrs. Martin, you are awake.” The man stood up as soon as he saw her awake. “How do you feel? Can you see clearly enough?”

Hearing his questions, Betty realized that her eyes were really foggy and she couldn’t really see without a blur. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

But she didn’t care much. She grabbed Peter and said in a dry tone, “Where’s Jeffrey?”

As soon as she spoke, she found that her

voice was hoarse and husky.

Peter looked embarrassed, but said, “Don’t

worry, he’s fine. He only has some infections, but he should be awake now.”

Betty was relieved. Then she coughed

violently.

Peter quickly fetched her a glass of water. “Mr. Martin is already on the plane back. He should be here in a few hours.”

“Isn’t he on business in America?”

“As soon as he heard about the fire at home, he immediately booked the earliest flight back.” Peter said earnestly, “Mrs. Martin, Mr. Martin is so worried about you.”

Betty felt uncomfortable.

Maybe he’s more worried about his necklace.

Speaking of the necklace, she suddenly

thought of something. She touched her neck

and asked, “Where’s the necklace?”

Peter paused for a moment, and then he realized what she was talking about. He immediately took the crystal necklace from the cabinet beside the bed and asked, “Is this the necklace you said?”

The man didn’t know the story behind the

jewelry piece. He just saw Betty quickly take it and answered with relief, “Yes, great. The

necklace is still here…”

Peter was puzzled. Then he wanted to call the doctor for Betty’s examination. She suddenly looked up and said, “Peter, can you take me to Jeffrey’s ward to check him out?”

She knew that it would be difficult for her to

see him when Kerwin came back since her

husband was so domineering about this.

Yet she also worried about Jeffrey so much. More importantly, she really felt sorry for

him.

Peter looked awkward. “Mrs. Martin, I’m

afraid this is not a very good idea…”

He thought he wouldn’t be so bold as to take Mrs. Martin to see her ex boyfriend. That

would be crazy.

Betty frowned and replied, “well, if you don’t accompany me, I will go by myself.”

She struggled out of bed.

“Oh, Mrs. Martin, please,” Peter pleaded. But he had no choice, so he helped her in the wheelchair and hung the infusion bottle above it. “I’d better accompany you there.”

Peter pushed her to Jeffrey’s ward. Before they entered, he heard Emily crying inside.

“Jeffrey, how did you get so badly hurt? What did you do? What should I do?”

Betty felt a little embarrassed. She wanted to leave but she didn’t want to let Jeffrey down. considering he had already seen her come in.

His eyes were lit with joy, and he quickly said, “Betty, come on in since you have shown up.”
