Chapter 547

Maja froze for a second, but he pulled his hand away, seeming a bit dazed from the heat.

Outside, the rain was pouring non–stop. With this kind of weather, the mountains would likely be shrouded in heavy

fog. Even if someone came looking for them, it would probably take a while.

Maja threw some dry firewood into the fire, thinking that the nearest village must be pretty far away. After all, if it

were close, the villagers wouldn’t need to store dry firewood up here for their mountain work.

She put her hand on lan’s forehead. He was burning up. Maja gently shifted her body, rolled up her now dry coat

and placed it under his head, letting him lean against the rock wall. She then took off his already dried shirt. The

back of it was stained with blood and his back was still bleeding and swollen.

With no medicine around and potential bacteria in the water, all Maja dared to do was to wrap his wound with

pieces of his torn shirt.

She went to the edge of the cliff to get some spring water to moisten his lips.

When she sat back down next to him, he seemed aware and leaned his head on her shoulder. Maja watched the

dancing flames, pulling her legs in to make him more comfortable.

It reminded her of the day in Crystalbrook Valley, when it was just the two of them. Back then, there was a

sandstorm outside, now difference was, he was unconscious now, vulnerable, not the domineering lan she knew.

rain. The

Maja added more firewood to the fire. Before she knew it, they had been there for hours. The fog outside had

gotten even thicker. In this weather, helicopters wouldn’t be able to fly.

After making sure the fire wouldn’t go out, she laid him flat and placed a small pillow under his head. But his hand

clutched her wrist tightly, as if he was afraid she’d leave.

Maja sat down next to him, too scared to sleep in case some wild animals showed up. Just as she was about to get

up to add more firewood, lan put his head on her lap. All she could do was straighten her leg and press her

fingertips against his forehead.

In such an environment, it was easy to reminisce about past moments.

lan wanted to be part of her life. The most recent time, the neat freak even wanted to visit her house. Like a puppy

marking its territory, as if marking it would make everything in it his.

She looked down at his face, gently brushing his eyelashes with her hand. Then she leaned against the rock wall,

wondering when their next meeting would be. A subtle sense of reluctance welled up in her heart. That was the

weak spot of women. They would develop special feelings for men who entered their lives, easily falling for them,

especially when the man was lan.

Maja rubbed her forehead and sighed.

A thunderclap echoed from outside the cave and the rain intensified. All through the night, lan kept complaining

about the cold, even though he was right in front of

the fire.

With no other options, Maja helped him up and held him tightly. He sought warmth in her arms, and Maja helped

him lie back down, holding him close.

He seemed to know where it was warm and kept rubbing against it. Then Maja felt someone undoing her clothes.

She sighed in resignation and held his hand

down.

“You’re injured, don’t think about anything else.”

lan immediately behaved, but his hand remained where it was. She didn’t feel like pretending to be reserved at this

time, so she closed her eyes.

When Fitch and his crew arrived, they found the two of them leaning on each other.

Maja groggily heard someone calling her name and quickly opened her eyes. Upon seeing lan being carried out on

a stretcher, she immediately stood up.

Fitch was standing aside, wearing knee–high boots, looking quite imposing. He glanced at Maja, then said, “Miss

Penny, let’s go.”

Maja followed him onto the helicopter.

The rain had stopped by then. It was the next morning and all she felt was exhaustion..

“How’s lan?”

“He’s on another helicopter, being taken to the hospital. Miss Penny, are you hurt? Do you need to go to the

hospital too?”

Maja slightly caught a cold but shook her head. “I’m okay.”

She looked down and saw blood on her pants, she frowned.

Was lan’s head also injured? She didn’t notice it in the dim light last night.

Fitch sat next to her, arms crossed over his chest. “Shall I take you back to Greenfield downtown?”

Maja nodded.

Once she got home, she felt incredibly tired.

lan was taken to the largest hospital. Phelps was there, personally receiving him. But when Maja got home, she felt

restless and couldn’t fall asleep.

Then she heard arguing outside. It was Edith and Selena. She felt instantly annoyed.
