Chapter 213
“I know first aid. I heard that Mr. Clark was injured, so I came to check on him.”
As Silvia spoke, she took the tools for disinfection from Chris and expertly tended to
Conrad’s
wound.
Ten
minutes later, she finished bandaging his wound. Just as she was about to put away the
first aid kit, a man suddenly rushed in.
“Autumn went back to get something, but she hasn’t returned. It looks like the flood has
reached her house!”
Their faces instantly dropped. They exchanged worried glances and fell silent.
If the flood had not reached Autumn’s house yet, they would have tried to bring her back.
However, none of them knew how to swim, and the water was rising rapidly. If they
ventured out to her house, they would definitely die.
Amid the silence, Chris suddenly stood up and said, “I’ll look for her.”
“I’ll go with you,” Silvia chimed in.
Chris frowned and sternly said, “No, it’s too dangerous.”

He did not mind going alone. Silvia was a woman, and he liked her, so he could not let her
take the risk.
“It’s just as dangerous for you to go alone.”
“I won’t let you go no matter what.”
Seeing that Chris would not budge, she said, “Alright.”
Chris soon disappeared into the rain. After Silvia obtained directions to Autumn’s house,
she got ready to follow him.
Conrad, who had been keeping quiet, decided to speak up, “I’ve been silent because I
know everyone has a family. Hence, I’ve tried not to force any of you to go out there. But
now, Miss Pond, who isn’t from our village, is willing to risk her life to save Autumn. Why
are the rest of you acting as if you’ve heard nothing?”
Silvia turned to him and calmly said, “Mr. Conrad, this is my choice. I hope you won’t use it
to pressure others. Don’t worry. Chris and I will bring Autumn back safely.”
Ever since Autumn bumped into her at the village entrance, Autumn would bring her some
food whenever she brought things to Chris as well.
Silvia could feel her kindness, and that’s why she was willing to save her.
If it had been anyone else, she might have remained indifferent. After all, there was too
much. uncertainty when facing natural disasters, and no one was willing to risk their life to
save someone else.
Having said that, Silvia walked into the rain.
By the time she arrived at Autumn’s house, half of it was flooded.

Chris was holding a board and struggling to move forward in the water.
Meanwhile, Autumn was sitting on the board with a pale face. She was drenched all over
and shivering. It was unclear if she was frightened or cold.
When Chris saw Silvia, he was shocked. “Didn’t I tell you not to follow me?!” he said
angrily.
It was his first time raising his voice at Silvia. However, she paid him no heed. She plunged
into the water and swam to their side.
“I’ll get Autumn on land. You don’t know how to swim, do you?
The water had already reached Chris’s chest. At the rate that he was moving, both he and
Autumn would soon be submerged.
“Bring her to safety. I’ll follow you.”
Silvia did not waste any time and swam away with Autumn in one hand.
Chris could not see her expression clearly in the heavy rain, but he was sure that her eyes
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwere filled with determination.
It reminded him of the day when an investor gave him a hard time by forcing him to kneel
for a toast. She dropped her glass and extended her hand to him to introduce herself. She
then asked him if he wanted to be an actor under her.
At that time, her eyes sparkled. Even though she was just a girl under twenty, she made
him feel like he could rely on her.
He held her hand, and from that day on, his life changed for the better.
The water level rose quickly, and it did not take long before it reached his chin, his l*ps,
and then his nose.
Seeing that Silvia had successfully brought Autumn to safety, he finally breathed a sigh of
relief.
Thankfully, she had made it safely on land.
Once Silvia set Autumn down, she turned her gaze back to the water, but Chris was
nowhere in sight.
Her expression instantly changed. “Autumn, head to Mr. Jefferson’s house. I’ll return after I
find Chris.”
Autumn clutched her sleeve, and tears streamed down her face. “Silvia, is Chris going to
die? I don’t want him to die…”
