Chapter: 214
“Horace, are you okay?” Ariana called out, as she kicked the back of the driver’s seat. He didn’t
respond either. He must have fainted.
Just then, Ariana felt Theodore’s head, which was leaning against her shoulder, move slightly. She
could hear him breathing heavily.
“Are you okay, Theodore?” Ariana exclaimed.
“Yeah,” he wheezed. Theodore didn’t look well. His forehead was bleeding and his face looked pale.
But luckily he had regained consciousness.
“The car’s turned over. Let’s find a way to get out.” Ariana wiped the blood from his temples and looked

He closed his eyes and tried to collect himself. “You try to get out first. There’s a red button beside the
door. Press it and the door should open,” he said in a hoarse voice.
He loosened his grip on Ariana and gently pushed her waist to help her toward the door.
With great effort, she managed to unfasten her seatbelt and get to the door. She pressed the red
button. Luckily, although the door was damaged, it could still be opened.
She crawled out. It was dark outside, and there were only a few dim streetlights to light the road. There
was a cold wind, and Ariana shivered.
As soon as she got out of the car, she turned back to Theodore and said, “I’ll pull you out.”
She grabbed Theodore’s hand firmly and tried to pull him out but he didn’t budge.
“Are you stuck?” She was getting so anxious that she was on the verge of tears. She stuck her head
inside the car and tried to pull his legs. Still, she couldn’t get him out.
“Just go. Don’t worry about me.”
There was pressure in his chest, and he coughed. He wanted to order Ariana to leave without him, but
his words got weaker and weaker.
“Just a minute. I’ll wake up Horace. He’s strong enough to pull you out.” Ariana ran around to the
driver’s seat. Horace’s face was covered in blood and his eyes were closed tightly. He was slumped
and motionless.
Ariana reached her shaking hand out toward him to feel his breath. She let out a sigh of relief when she
realized he was still breathing.

Ariana had no idea what to do.
Just as she was at a total loss, she caught a glimpse of her bag. She pulled it out of the gap between
the seats.
She opened the bag and murmured, “Please don’t be broken…”
She took out her phone and clicked on the screen. It still worked!
She almost cried with joy. She reassured Theodore, “Hang in there. Don’t go back to sleep. I’ll find
someone to save us right now.”
She tapped the emergency call button and was about to dial.
But just then, Theodore seemed to see something terrible. His lo)
