Chapter 611
Derek was thrown back into the back seat. Natalie glared at him angrily and said, “You could just climb
the ladder. You wouldn’t have been scolded!”
Derek had no choice but to obediently climb the ladder. Once Derek was safely rescued, Natalie finally
relaxed.
Just then, a downpour began, the rain coming down in sheets from the overcast sky.
“The weather is bizarre.” Mesue remarked sternly, “Come on, Mrs. Larson. There might be
thunderstorms later.”
Natalie felt her heart constrict as she took in the scene of the raging storm and trembling rescue ladder
in front of her.
With a scowl, Brandon remarked, “There is not much time left, Natalie. The weather prediction predicts
an approaching downpour. You just have three minutes before the helicopter has to leave.”
Natalie struggled to ascend the ladder. “But, Mesue…” “Forget about me. Just go!” Mesue noticed
Natalie had climbed the ladder and then sighed in relief. “Mrs. Larson, take care,” she urged with a
smile. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Natalie had an idea out of nowhere. She realized that they were approaching a curve, which meant that
someone had to stay behind to keep the vehicle under control.
With tears streaming down her face, Natalie struggled to contain her emotions as she calmly declared,
“Mesue, I’ll stay with you.”
She then quickly let go of the ladder and jumped back to the car.
Mesue, feeling horrified, shouted, “Mrs. Larson, I’m a professional, and I’m confident I won’t be in any
danger.” Slightly sniffling, Natalie looked at Brandon and told him, “There’s a bend up ahead. Someone
needs to control the car. Mesue wants to stay and take the wheel.”
Upon seeing Natalie’s resolute and tearful gaze, Brandon found it difficult to make a decision. It was
undoubtedly nearly impossible to save both of them at the same time. However, Brandon also
understood that Natalie couldn’t bear to watch Mesue perish, so he had to try to rescue them both.
“Take care of yourself. I’ll handle everything else.” Brandon exchanged seats with the driver next to him
and revved up the car. Working in conjunction with the other vehicle, they sandwiched the convertible
in the middle, i
The three cars collided with a loud, jarring noise, causing sparks to fly as the bodies of the cars were
damaged. But thanks to their efforts, the speed of the convertible slowed down.
Realizing that Brandon was attempting to buy some time for them, Natalie said to Mesue frantically,
“Get in the back seat first.”
“Someone has to take the wheel!” Mesue refused to move to the back seat.
Suddenly, an idea struck Natalie. She removed her coat and handed it to Mesue and instructed, “Tie it
to the steering wheel. I’ll control it with my hands.”
“Will that work?” Mesue hesitated for a moment before finally tying Natalie’s coat sleeves to the
steering wheel as instructed. “Try to see if you can control it.”
As soon as Natalie climbed up the ladder, she felt the power of the convertible pulling her back. She
had to exert all her strength to control it.
Despite the difficulty, she gritted her teeth and insisted, “Yes, I can. Come up already!”
At this point, she saw that the convertible had been badly squeezed and deformed on both sides by the
other cars. This meant that there was a high risk of a car accident at any moment, and the situation
was far from optimistic.
However, Brandon didn’t seem to be worried about the car at all. He simply reminded Natalie, “Make it
quick.”
Mesue moved from the driver’s seat to the back seat as Natalie climbed up, still managing the direction
of the car. As they approached the bend, Mesue nimbly jumped up at the last second and grabbed onto
the rescue ladder. Natalie quickly let go of the coat, and the helicopter successfully navigated the
curve.
Just when everyone thought everything was over, the out-of-control convertible suddenly swayed and
crashed into the fence!
The violent collision immediately caused a small explosion. The gasoline in the tank of the convertible
leaked, coming into contact with the sparks caused by friction, and the car was instantly engulfed in
flames.
The other cars from the Larson Group all retreated quickly. But since Brandon’s car was in a precarious
position, he had to turn the steering wheel rapidly to avoid the sudden explosion…
With a loud noise, Brandon’s car burst through the fence and collided with a tree on the side of the
road.
Natalie and Mesue had been pulled into the chopper by then. Natalie saw this as she was in the air.
She screamed as Brandon’s car began to smoke!
Natalie twisted her neck to see behind her, but the chopper continued to move forward and the
buildings soon prevented her from seeing Brandon’s car.
Natalie’s consciousness immediately blanked as she saw what transpired. She realized she was
struggling for air. If Brandon’s car was also leaking gasoline, it could explode!
The powerful wind filled her ears to the point that she couldn’t determine if there was a distant
explosion.
Natalie prayed that nothing bad would happen to Brandon. The only thing that she wanted to do now
was to see Brandon right away.
“Can we land now?” She asked as she looked at the pilot. The pilot looked embarrassed as he replied,
“There aren’t any airports around here. The roads aren’t wide enough either, so landing here won’t be
safe. The only place we can go to is the emergency landing site.”
“Okay. I won’t make things hard for you.” Natalie nodded and didn’t say anything more.
However, she was already on the verge of breaking down. She felt as if a century had passed in the
few minutes that she waited for the helicopter to land.
“Let’s go to the emergency landing site first, Mrs. Larson. I’m sure Mr. Larson will be fine. His
b*odyguards are with him, and he won’t be harmed as long as they’re around,” Mesue said, trying to
comfort Natalie. She didn’t know anything else to say to make Natalie feel better.
“Don’t worry, Mesue; I’m fine. You can have a rest first.” Natalie nervously sat back in her seat after
patting Mesue’s shoulder.
