“Dr. Gainsford? Do you mean Elaina? What happened to her?” Jalen suddenly became serious and stared at Miguel in front of him.
Though frightened by his stare, Miguel quickly reacted and said, “Dr. Gainsford was buried under the collapsed house.”
“What did you say?” Jalen almost lost his footing.
Jalen had not expected it to be too late though he came in a hurry.
Standing in front of the ruins where Elaina was buried, Jalen did not have time to ask further. He immediately ordered his men to start digging. Since he had come in a hurry, there were no large excavators on the aircraft, only some simple tools.
But even so, it was much more efficient than the ones the villagers had used.
Everyone got their tools and quietly immersed themselves in saving people.
Under the ruins, Elaina curled up in the corner with Corey in her arms. She felt a sharp pain in her right leg. However, Elaina could not care about it now. Instead, she looked around to find a chance
to leave.
But she soon despaired again. The stones surrounded them tightly and left no hole for them to
escape.
“Elaina, am I going to die here?” Corey trembled in fear. It was dark all around. Only Elaina’s body temperature kept him awake.
“No, Mr. Collins and the villagers will definitely save us. Corey, you are strong. Believe in yourself.
Your sister is still waiting for you outside.” Elaina held him tightly, trying to comfort and
encourage him.
In fact, she was also worried. There would be more aftershocks afterward. It was hard for the
villagers to dig them out with bare hands.
Elaina was a little regretful. If she had known this beforehand, she would have carried Corey and
Lilly out together at once instead of bringing them out one by one. In that way, less time would have
been wasted.
Taking a deep breath, she knew that she had to calm down. At least they had to stay alive before Miguel found them.
As time went by, Elaina found it hard to breathe. She knew that there was less oxygen. If it went on like this, they would probably be unable to get out alive.
“Elaina, I’m so thirsty,” came Corey’s weak voice. It was far worse for Corey as he was young and
stayed here longer than Elaina.
“Corey, don’t sleep. Mr. Collins will be here soon.” She knew what she said took little effect, but she could not find better words to comfort him.
Corey did not reply. Elaina was a little worried. “Corey?”
“Corey?” No one answered. Elaina felt a chill down her spine.
She carried Corey to sit up and tried to wake him up. After several coughs, Corey slowly woke up. NôvelDrama.Org content.
“Elaina, I feel so bad.” Came Corey’s weak voice again, which was heartbreaking for Elaina.
“You will be fine. We will both be fine.” In such an environment, she couldn’t help feeling helpless,
let alone a kid.
Suddenly, something above her head made a noise. Elaina immediately caught on and looked up. She shouted, “Help! We are here!”
“It’s Dr. Gainsford’s voice!” someone shouted.
“Here, they are here!”
Elaina heard more and more sounds above her and finally felt relieved.
A trace of light pierced the darkness. The hole where Elaina had got in was dug open, and someone
walked in.
Against the light, Elaina could not see the man clearly. She just felt that he looked unbelievably
familiar.
