The man walked closer and stopped in front of Elaina.

“Jalen?” Elaina looked at the familiar face in front of her in disbelief. She almost doubted her eyes.

“Yes. Can you walk?” Words failed to describe how Jalen felt when he finally found her. He was so eager to hug her in his arms now that Elaina stood safe and sound before him.

But he did not do that. He was afraid Elaina would dislike his hug and could only be careful.

Elaina nodded in a daze. She did not have time to ask Jalen why he was there. Instead, she looked down at Corey in her arms. “Can you help me carry him out?”

“OK,” Jalen answered.

Jalen took Corey from Elaina and did not leave right away. He was waiting for Elaina to go with him.

It was not easy to find her. Jalen did not want her to disappear from his view anymore.

Elaina moved slowly after Jalen, leaning on the wall, and tried not to show she was in pain.

Jalen quickly noticed something. He stopped and bent down. “Come. I’ll carry you.”

“No… I’m good. I can walk by myself.” Elaina shook her head. She thought, how could I let Jalen carry me? We are not that close.

What’s more, he and Alisha might have been married. It’s unacceptable to be carried by a married

man.

“On my back or in my arms with this kid being put down. Your choice,” Jalen spoke with

decisiveness.

Elaina was stunned. She believed that Jalen could do it.

Gritting her teeth, Elaina said, “Don’t put him down.”

“OK.” The man nodded and bent down again.

Elaina did not refuse this time. After all, the longer they stayed here, the more danger they would

face.

Slowly, Jalen walked to the hole as he carried Corey in his arms and Elaina on his back. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

In fact, they were not far from the hole. The ground was covered with stones, and it took great effort

to walk.

Luckily, they got to the hole safely.

Jalen handed Corey out. Before Elaina spoke, he threw his arms around Elaina’s waist and went out

with her in his arms.

Being so close to Jalen and his smell, Elaina was comforted and reassured somehow.

“Are you feeling unwell?” After coming out of the ruins, Jalen looked down at Elaina in his arms, his eyes full of worry.

Elaina shook her head, not daring to meet his eyes.

“No? Then why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?” He reached out to touch Elaina’s forehead.

“It does not seem to be a fever,” he said.

As he spoke, Elaina’s face turned even redder.

She wondered, I don’t have a fever. I just felt embarrassed to be carried in your arms. Besides, many villagers were watching us.

She gave Jalen a gentle push. “Put me down,” she said.

Jalen agreed and put Elaina down reluctantly from his arms.

With a certain distance from Jalen, Elaina regained her composure. She then looked at Jalen beside her. “Why are you here?”

“What do you think?” He did not answer her directly but replied with another question. However, Jalen’s determined eyes told Elaina his answer.

Elaina wondered, but… How’s that possible?

Did he come for me?

She wanted to ask him many things but did not know how.

Miguel came over at that moment. When he saw that Elaina was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. “Dr. Gainsford, it’s good that you are fine.

“Your boyfriend treats you so well. He came for you on a helicopter and even went down to find you without hesitation as soon as the hole was dug out. What a good man!”
