Chapter 214
“Don’t worry. He’ll be safe. Alright, be a good girl and head back. That way, you’ll be able
to ask the others to help us.”
After Autumn left, Silvia plunged back into the water.
It did not take long before she spotted Chris underwater.
She quickly swam over and managed to bring him to the surface. However, she realized
they were far from land, and she did not have enough stamina to swim back with him.
She noticed that the roof of Autumn’s house was nearby and still above water. Without
hesitation, she swam toward it with Chris in tow.
Once they reached it, she laid him flat on the roof and began to perform CPR.
Some time later, Chris coughed up some water and gradually regained consciousness.
When he saw her, a hint of disbelief flickered in his eyes. He thought that he was
hallucinating and instinctively reached out to touch her face.
Silvia was caught off guard by his sudden action. She did not move her head away in time
as she was momentarily stunned.
When Chris felt the warmth of her skin, he realized that he was not dreaming. He quickl

“I’m sorry. I thought I was seeing things.”
Silvia did not mind it. She nodded and said, “No worries. You should rest for now.
She stood up and scanned their surroundings. The roof was the only dry spot in an area of
several hundred meters.
If Silvia was alone, she might be able to swim back. Having Chris with her, she would
probably run out of energy halfway,
As Chris stood up and looked around, he instinctively frowned when he saw the situation.
“You shouldn’t have come back to save me.”
He was glad, but he cared more about her safety.
Silvia turned to him and asked, “If I was drowning, would you do nothing and leave?”
“No.”
“I won’t just stand by either.”
The water continued to rise, and it soon reached their ankles.
The heavy rain also showed no signs of stopping. Chris knew that staying there was the
same as waiting for a disaster.
He turned to Silvia. “Can you swim back on your own?”
She was about to speak when the roof beneath their feet suddenly disappeared.
Autumn’s house was old and lacking maintenance. After being submerged in water for

time, it collapsed.
Silvia quickly grabbed onto Chris to prevent the rushing water from separating them.
“Silvia, please let go of me. I’m just making things more difficult for you.”
Chris wanted to push her hand away as she held on to his clothes, but she snapped.
“Don’t move!”
He froze and sighed with a bitter smile. “At this rate, both of us will die.”
She frowned and coldly said, “Don’t worry. If I truly reach my limit, I’ll give up on saving
you.

Although she thought of Chris as a friend, her life was still her top priority.
“I don’t want to trouble you.”
Silvia did not respond and slowly swam toward land with him.
However, they were just about ten meters away from land when a huge wave suddenly
pushed them seven to eight meters back.
Even so, Silvia continued swimming.
Chris was anxious. He had never hated himself so much for not being able to swim. If he
knew how to swim, he would not be a burden to her.
As Silvia’s strength gradually waned, her movements slowed. Besides, the relentless
waves further impeded their progress. After half an hour of struggling, they were only
halfway there. Chris noticed their slow progress. He pondered in silence and finally made a
difficult decision.
He held her hand and began to pry her fingers loose.
Her expression changed. “Chris, what are you doing?!”
With a gentle smile, he slowly replied, “Silvia, that’s enough. Thank you.”
