All of a sudden, Sebastian felt like all weight had been lifted out of his hands.
He looked down nervously when he heard Natalie’s scream and he felt his heart skip a beat.
Fortunately.Natalie was safe.The firefighters below had already laid out a rescue cushion under them to prevent Natalie from
hurtling headlong into the ground.
Thankfully, she had landed right on target on the cushion.
With his hands grabbing the hand rills, Sebastian couldn’t hold on any longer and passed out.
Closing his eyes, he was still thinking that Natalie was not far from the ground now and that she should be safe.
When Natalie fell on the air cushion, she felt a sharp pain all over her body, as if her bones had broken.
Ignoring the pain, she staggered to her feet and looked up desperately at the rooftop.
The life-saving rope was burned, and there was absolutely no way for Sebastian to escape.
At this time, a loud sound cfrom the rooftop.
The fire on the rooftop could be seen from the ground. Frightened, Natalie shouted at the rooftop, “Sebastian!”
However, there was only the sound of burning coming from the rooftop now that the fire had grown so big.
Seeing that there was no response from Sebastian, Natalie was about to lose her mind completely.
She hurriedly said to the firefighters, “My husband is still up there! Please save him!”
One of the firefighters had no choice but to answer, “Our vehicles are still stuck out here; we had to carry the rescue cushion in
ourselves just now.
Natalie suddenly felt desperate.She pushed the people standing in front of her out of her away and was about to rush upstairs to
save Sebastian herself.
“Hey! Calm down, rniss.It’s too dangerous!”
Everyone around rushed to stop her dead in her tracks, “Natalie! Sebastian risked his life to save you!”

Laney lived on the lower floor and she had already run down before the fire spread.
She now grabbed Natalie’s wrist and said in a softer tone, “Calm down.Even if you rushed up, you won’t be able to save him; you
will only get yourself killed.”
“Letgo up there! Laney, Sebastian is still up there, fighting for his life!” Natalie broke down and cried.
She couldn’t calm down even a little and kept shaking her head, trying to struggle out of the grip of the crowd.
The fire seemed to grow bigger with every passing minute, and the smoke mingled with the clouds in the sky. It was a serious
fire accident, and the people gathered around gasped in fear.
At that moment, a helicopter with the Larson Group’s logo broke through the smoke and hovered above the rooftop.
The rope ladder rolled down, and the rescuers climbed down. Séveral men in bright orange suits jumped off the rope and saved
Sebastian, who had passed out.
The sound of the propeller gradually reached Natalie’s ears.
Seeing the helicopter parked in an open space near the neighborhood, she immediately rushed over. Sebastian’s face was
covered in soot, and there were multiple burns on his body. He was unconscious. The blood from the wounds soaked his shirt.
All the residents swarmed around him, and skind- hearted person called 911.
“He is severely injured.”
“Don’t worry, young lady. The ambulance will arrive soon!” Tears streamed down Natalie’s cheeks when she realized what
Sebastian had been through. She wiped the tears off her face and escorted Sebastian to the ambulance along with the
firefighters.
Laney saw Natalie’s swollen ankles and reatized she must have hurt herself when she fell on the air cushion.
“You should treat the injury on your ankles first.” Natalie shook her head fiercely. She forced herself to calm down and got in the
ambulance with Sebastian.
“Please go to this hospital.” Natalie gave the address of Frank’s hospital. The driver didn’t refuse. He knew it was a high-end
private hospital, and the equipment there was much better than those at public hospitals.

As soon as they arrived at the front gate of the hospital, Natalie saw Frank standing there with a dozen medical staff as if they
had been waiting for a big shot.
Frank ran over as he watched his people wheeled Sebastian into the hospital in a stretcher bed. His face turned grim when he
saw
Sebastian’s conditions.
“Take him to the OR and call the attending doctor of the Dermatology Department right away.”
Frank hurriedly ordered the nurse. Then, he and a dozen doctors pushed Sebastian into the operating room and began treating
him.
Natalie clenched her fists and anxiously paced outside the door. Her swelled-up ankles had turned red. Laney couldn’t help but
feel sorry for her. She went to the nurse and got sointment for Natalie.
“You don’t have to keep staring at the door. He is right inside there and won’t go anywhere.” She grabbed Natalie’s arm and
helped her sit down.
“The doctors are treating him now.”
Although Natalie was sitting on a chair, her eyes were still fixed on the door of the operating room.
“Sebastian is seriously injured. He said he would get out of the place safely with me.” Tears welled up in her eyes as she thought
about it.
Laney wasn’t good at comforting people. She hadn’t even cried once after becoming an adult.
All she could do was sit beside Natalie and accompany her. Sdoctors cout of the OR, and then more went in. The next
afternoon, the light of the operating room finally turned green.
Frank walked out, his face taut with exhaustion. Natalie’s heart sank when she saw the expression on his face.
“Doctor Watson, how is Sebastian?” She hurriedly ran over and asked him.
Rubbing his temples in a bid to alleviate his headache, Frank took off his mask. Heaving a sigh, he massaged his stiff shoulder.

“He’s no longer in any real danger, but he had been seriously injured. He has multiple second degree burns and his lungs are
damaged from inhaling too much smoke. He’s going to be in the hospital for at least three weeks.”
“I need to see him.” She tried to go into the ward. Frank stopped her.
“He’s awake, but you can’t go in there. He needs an asepsis environment while his burns heal. if you go in there right now, you
might take in bacteria.”
Disappointment darkened Natalie’s eyes. She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, lowering her head apologetically.
“You’re right. I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking.”
‘It’s okay.” Frank knew that she was just worried about Sebastian. He raised his chin at the window.
“You can see him through the glass, but you should ready your heart for the sight. He’s all wrapped up in gauze. I don’t think
even he himself ever imagined someday he’d look just like a mummy.” Natalie smiled, knowing that Frank was making jokes in a
bid to make her feel better.
After a moment of hesitation, she turned around and walked to the window. Lifting a hand to the glass, she looked at the man
lying on the bed.
Sebastian’s eyes were closed and there was an IV needle attached to his wrist. He had a ventilator on, and much like Frank had
said, he was wrapped up in bandages and gauze like a mummy. He looked terrible. Natalie had never seen him like that before.
It seemed like Sebastian sensed a gaze on him, because he opened his eyes and turned his head, locking eyes with her. He
couldn’t speak, so he could only blink at her from the other side of the glass. His gaze was gentle and comforting.
en and she hurriedly covered her mouth with one hand to keep her sobs from coming out. If he had not helped her down first, he
wouldn’t have been suffering like this. Frank walked over with his hands behind his back.
