Chapter 903
In an instant, the flash flood rushed in! Roaring and surging, it swept through everything in its path. It howled like a group of startled wild horses, galloping down from the valley with unstoppable force.
Just at this moment, the helicopter suddenly lifted off and soared into the sky!
Franklin, with lingering fear, held Sylvia in his arms.
He stretched out his arm and tightly held her, his heart almost jumping out of his throat. He couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if he were one second late!
Sylvia's ribs ached from his embrace. She twisted her body, trying to make him hold her less tightly. "We need to hurry and get on the plane," she said.
However, Franklin seemed to not have heard her words and instead held her even tighter.
The man's hot breath sprayed in her ear, and his deep black eyes contained a strong emotion that almost burned her heart. "Just now, | almost lost you."
His hoarse voice sounded in her ear.
Under their feet was a vast expanse submerged by mountain floods, and the howling wind rocked the two of them back and forth on the ladder.
However, this cannot completely prevent Franklin from doing what he wants to do at this moment.
He held Sylvia tightly with one hand while the other hand gripped the ladder firmly, preventing both of them from falling. Even so, his thin lips accurately captured the woman's lips that were blown cold by the wind without any warmth. He wants to kiss her!
Now he just wants to kiss her fiercely, feeling her presence!
If she was really swept away by the flash flood just now, he would definitely go crazy!
He will die!
He loves her so much that he would give his life for her.
As long as she is okay! As long as she is safe!
As Nelson lowered his gaze not far above their heads, he saw this intimate scene and couldn't get more envious. As the ladder was slowly pulled into the plane, Franklin also let go of Sylvia.
Every helicopter carried a medical personnel who was busy providing medical assistance and post-rescue care to the injured and unconscious teenagers.
Romeo held on until Sylvia stepped into the plane. As soon as he saw her, tears burst out uncontrollably. "Sylvia, I'm dying; I'm so afraid that if | close my eyes, I'll never see you again."
"Oh, it's so scary..." Romeo had to hide his desire for comfort and lay back down. He felt even more aggrieved that he couldn't be hugged by Sylvia... to be consoled. His heart was broken.
Tears streamed down his face relentlessly. "I'll never do it again, I'll never sneak out to play like this." “Exploring is not fun at all. No matter who tempted me, | won't come again."
As he muttered on, Sylvia looked at him with a sharp frown. "Why did you guys come to a place like this?” Their curiosity had gotten the better of them.
"It's all because of one of the school doctors in our medical room," Romeo wiped away his tears again, feeling ashamed for crying so much and being useless in such situations. Even though it was warm inside the plane, his face still looked pale and his body shivered under a thick down jacket and blanket.
But he still felt cold... very cold.
He was covered in mud and water stains; hands and feet were icy cold; Jasper handed him a cup of hot water which he gulped down quickly before finally feeling some relief in his body.
It's too cold here... it's really too cold here. "A school doctor?" Sylvia glanced at Franklin with suspicion as if thinking about something else entirely.
"Yes," Romeo continued after wiping away more tears fiercely; feeling embarrassed about being so weepy but truly scared out of his wits - he'd never been that close to death before - almost believing that he would meet the King of Hell.
Only he and his brother were left in their family; if anything happened to him now, then his elder brother would no longer had any family in the world.
"Go check it out," Franklin immediately ordered Jasper as if sensing that things weren't quite right yet. Jasper nodded obediently saying "Yes, Mr. Franklin"
Franklin then turned towards James, who lay quietly next to Romeo, wrapped up tightly under the blankets, wearing thick jackets, but whose complexion remained purple-blue from extreme chilliness despite having oxygen tanks nearby ensuring adequate supply without any risk of hypoxia.
Sylvia personally helped him check his body, and after a few minutes, she finally looked at Franklin and Romeo's worried eyes. "Temporary hypothermia. If the hypothermia lasts too long, the consequences will be unimaginable."
After speaking, she thought for a moment and said, "Contact the doctors on the other planes to see how those teenagers are doing. Their physical condition is not as good as Romeo and James’. Even James lost consciousness due to hypothermia. I'm worried about the others..."
As she spoke, Jasper suddenly exclaimed, "One of the teenagers is critically ill! If we don't save him soon..."
Sylvia frowned. "The weather is so bad right now that it's already dangerous for a helicopter to fly in rain. If we accelerate recklessly..." But soon enough, she made a decision. "Take me to that plane."
“How do we get you there?" Franklin grabbed her shoulder tightly. "It's too dangerous."
“Lives are at stake!" Sylvia firmly looked at Franklin. "Both planes can release ladders simultaneously; | can definitely jump over there with your help!"
"Sylvia, no!" Franklin shook his head vigorously while holding her tightly in his arms; his voice was urgent. "Don't go! We'll be able to fly back to the hospital immediately without taking any risks!"
"Franklin!" Sylvia struggled out of his embrace forcefully. "... saving lives comes first! These children all came out with James and Romeo; if anything happens to them because of us... especially when someone else has been pushing them into this situation..."
Franklin knew exactly what Sylvia meant by these words.
But just thinking about jumping from one plane onto another in such high altitude made him...
“But regardless," he suddenly seemed determined. "... | don't want you taking any risks or getting hurt."
He turned around abruptly and ordered the pilot to open up their aircraft door while lowering down its ladder.
Jasper also contacted another helicopter simultaneously asking them to open up their door while lowering down their own ladder. Nelson was shocked.
Even he - who had experienced countless rescues under numerous life-threatening situations - was stunned by this couple's actions.
"You two... Mr. Maskelyne? Are you joking about risking your own lives like this? Please don't do this..."
At this moment, Sylvia finally looked at Nelson. The man in front of her was tall and handsome, exuding an inexplicable aura of heroism all over his body.
Nelson was sizing her up, she was beautiful and eye-catching! It's hard to believe that such a delicate woman would decide to jump out of the plane!
Is she crazy?
"Can you do it? You're a woman..."
But before he could finish his sentence, Sylvia and Franklin had already stood at the door of the cabin. The strong wind raged on, lifting Sylvia's long hair and the raincoat that kept her warm.
She looked as beautiful as a fairy. As if she could fly away at any moment! Everyone on the plane was stunned by what they saw.
What shocked them even more was that the man next to her held her hand tightly like he was her perfect and strongest guardian angel!
Protecting her firmly with such determination and reliability! Then everyone watched helplessly as they both climbed down the ladder together.
Two planes flew side by side but with a little distance between them so as to avoid colliding into each other causing an aviation accident.
So there was a small gap between two planes.
Probably about two or three meters apart. There is also quite some distance between their ladders. If their jumping force isn't enough or if there is too much wind power, they might fall off mid-air! And die from falling!
Sylvia and Franklin held onto the ladder tightly while being blown around in mid-air by strong winds. Swinging dangerously back-and-forth... Nelson couldn't help but sweat for them nervously.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Jasper couldn't bear watching anymore so he found a long ro vant from one of thelitpglodkes fexaient thar aniribed up onto their ladder too before handing it over to Franklin, saying, "Mr. Franklin, tie this rope around your waist!" Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.
Franklin nodded, then took hold of one end tying it around Sylvia's waist, while saying, Huss eatety forse ie anee nd each our waists! If you don't make it through once safely just treat it like bungee jumping." Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.
Sylvia nodded in agreement looking across towards another shaking ladder swaying back-and-forth violently due to high winds blowing against its sides which were only two meters away from where they were standing now...
Two pilots have never encountered such danger in their lives before so both tried moving closer towards each other hoping to shorten distances for when Sylvia & Franklin jump off together...
Two meters... one point five... one meter... Just then everyone saw that woman leap forward like an acrobat performer would do during shows! Everyone's heart stopped beating instantly!
They almost couldn't breathe!
