“It looks like it’s going to rain Jaydon also looked up at the sky. Through the leaves, he could see that the sky was already gloomy
He could not help but frown
Alita’s expression turned serious. “What should we do? The rain will probably fall in less than ten minutes, and we still need to walk for another thirty minutes to return to the car. We definitely won’t make it in time. Worse still, once it rains, all the marks I made on the trees will be washed away”
“Didn’t you place glow sticks in the ground?” Jaydon looked down at her.
“Yes, I did. However, the glow sticks are a distance apart. The purpose is to strengthen the markings, Furthermore, I’m afraid that when the storm comes, they will be covered by branches. Moreover, most importantly, the rain is about to come. Even if we run, we won’t be able to run out in ten minutes. Alita said anxiously. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, she became more anxious.
The weather forecast was so unreliable. It clearly said that there would be no rain,
Jaydon was still very calm. He held Alita’s hand and tightened his grip to give her some strength.
The forest was covered by flowers and trees. Even when there was sunlight, it would not be very bright inside, let alone when the sky was gloomy and the wind was strong. Looking up, it no longer felt like a paradise. It felt like hell where a group of demons were dancing.
Evelyn, Karen, and the others were so frightened they huddled together and screamed.
Alita was not afraid of the dark or ghosts. She was just worried that they would get lost. That was the scariest thing.
She calmed herself down and thought carefully for a while. She raised her head and said decisively to Karen and the others,
screaming and quickly set up the tents. We have to stay where we are and ensure the safety of Miss Jenner and Mr. Lewis. We can’t let anything happen to our clients.”
Karen and the others were already panicking. Evelyn hugged Sabina tightly and cried, “I don’t want to stay here. I want to go home. I don’t want to be eaten by an evil spirit. I don’t want to. I don’t want to…”
The scene was chaotic again, Karen and the others were also in a daze.
“Stop screaming! Alita roared. A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and thunder rumbled.
Alita’s fierce expression, with t the lightning and the surrounding atmosphere, really gave off terrifying vibes.
Evelyn was petrified. Karen, Crystal, and Sabina surrounded Evelyn. The four of them hugged each other–tightly and backed away.
Only Jaydon knew Alita was at her wits‘ end.
“Karen, Crystal, and Sabina, listen carefully. Set up the tents immediately. We have to ensure the safety of our clients first, okay?” Alita said firmly.
“We got it.” Karen, Crystal, and Sabina were intimidated by Alita’s gaze. They slowly calmed down. They left Evelyn’s side and quickly
got into action.
Evelyn was trembling on the other side. “Jay–Jaydon, I’m so scared.”

Alita pulled back her hand, which was feeling hot after being held tightly by Jaydon, and pushed him forward Hurry up and take care of your fiancée. Tell her everything will be fine
Jaydon looked at Alita and smiled. “With Miss Thompson’s words, I suddenly feel very calm “
Alita rolled her eyes at him. She was not in the mood to talk nonsense with him. She was efficient and organized.
The wind was strong Alita and Crystal spent a lot of effort to set up a tent. On the other side, Karen’s hands were trembling. She couldn’t set up the tent properly. Alita walked over and squatted down, saying softly. “Ill do this. Get the raincoats and flashlights and distribute them to everyone. Let Mr. Lewis and the others go in first. The rain is coming”
“Yes, Ms. Thompson.” Karen was not good at setting up tents. When she heard that she didn’t have to set up the tent, she quickly stood up
Jaydon saw that Alita was so busy that her forehead was covered in sweat, but her expression was unusually determined and calm. She did not look afraid at all. To be honest, he really admired her. It was rare for a woman to have such a strong and calm mind. If she had someone to protect her, she might not have to become so tough.
His heart suddenly constricted.
One of the tent’s fulcrums was not fixed. It was suddenly pried open and bounced on the back of Alita’s hand with a thud. She felt a sharp pain, and her hand instantly bled.

“Evelyn, let go of me first. Il go over and take a look. Jaydon’s heart ached when he saw that. He released Evelyn’s hand and
forward.
“Jaydon, don’t go!” Evelyn yelled as she threw herself at Jaydon.
Alita thought that something had happened again. She covered her wound with her other hand and stood up to ask anxiously. “What’s wrong with Evelyn?” Seeing they were not wearing raincoats, she frowned and turned around to call out, “Karen, where are the raincoats and flashlights? Haven’t you found them yet?”
“Ms.-Ms. Thompson, I think I forgot to bring them,” Karen stood there with her head lowered and said softly.
Alita slapped her forehead weakly. It was useless to scold Karen now. She looked at Jaydon and said, “You guys go into the tent
first
Jaydon failed to pull Evelyn off from his back. He looked at Alita’s bloody hand and said, “Treat your wound first.”
“I’m fine.” Although Alita was in extreme pain, she was not in the mood to care. “Hurry up and go in. Just don’t let Evelyn scream
again.”
“Miss Thompson, what do you mean you’re fine? Treat your wound right away!” Jaydon suddenly roared: He really couldn’t stand it anymore. He knew that she was actually in pain, but she was used to being stubborn and enduring.
At this moment, his heart ached so much that he wanted to bear this pain for her. He thought, ‘She is just a woman. Why can’t she act more like a woman?” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
His roar frightened everyone.
Alita was also stunned by his roar, She wondered, “What is wrong with him?
Karen came back to her senses and remembered that she had put gauze in her backpack. She quickly took it out and went over to

bandage Alita’s wound. When she saw the deep wound, her teeth trembled. ‘Ms. Ms. Thompson, don’t you feel pain?”
“So what if it hurts? Do you expect me to cry?” Alita asked angrily.
After Karen bandaged the wound, Alita raised her hand and showed it to Jaydon. “Mr. Lewis, is this okay? Hurry up and go in ”
Jaydon sighed heavily and followed Evelyn into the tent.
As soon as they went in, the rain poured down.
There was still the last fulcrum that was not fixed properly. Alita shouted, “You guys go in first. I’ll be right there.”
“Ms. Thompson.”
“Hurry up and go in. This is an order.” Alita turned around and squatted there. If it weren’t fixed, the tent would be blown over by the wind at any moment.
Karen and the others were touched and went into the tent.
Two minutes later, Alita crawled into the tent. Her body was drenched in the rain, and the bandage on her hand was covered in blood.
However, the first thing she did was to heave a sigh of relief.
Opposite her, Jaydon and Evelyn sat there, dry and clean. The flashlight shone brightly inside.
“Don’t worry.
- y. It’ll be fine. After the rain stops. I’ll go out and check out the road conditions. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll stay here for night and leave tomorrow morning.” Alita said with a smile.
Evelyn was still a little afraid when she saw Alita. She hugged Jaydon’s arm tightly and said to Alita, “Get out. Don’t stay in the same
tent as us.”
“That might not work. It’s raining heavily outside. If I go out, I’ll get drenched and fall sick. By that time, no one will go and scout the way. If that happens, you’ll be trapped here forever” Alita said as she took a towel from her bag to dry her face and hair. She was not stupid enough to make herself sick.
Jaydon’s heart had been filled with anger and pain since she came in, and he saw her sorry state.
“Miss Thompson, are you still a worhan? Doesn’t your hand hurt? Doesn’t your body feel cold? Why can’t you leave these things to your employees? Why do you have to land yourself in this state?” His handsome face was grim, his voice was cold, and the color of his green eyes deepened.
Alita did not understand why he was angry when she was injured. She joked nonchalantly, “I’m not a woman now, but a woman possessed by an evil spirit, so I’m especially powerful.”
She thought he would laugh, but his jaw was still clenched, and he looked cold.
“Gauze
“What?” Alita did not understand what he meant.
“Hurry up and get the clean gauze. Jaydon continued to be expressionless.
Alita took out the clean gauze from her bag.

After Jaydon pulled Evelyn aside and said, “Sit down obediently, he moved to Alita’s side and lifted her injured hand to remove the
bandage.
Only
then did Alita understand that he was going to bandage her wound. Her heart skipped a beat.
Her hand recoiled, and he tightened his grip.
His expression was cold and serious as he bandaged her wound. His movements were very gentle as he stared at her slender fingers. They were very long and beautiful. He remembered that she had once worn a ring on her ring finger that made her exclusively his. Now, there was nothing on her finger, not even a trace.
Evelyn was too preoccupied with going home to pay attention to anything else..
“It’s done” Jaydon let go of Alita’s hand and was very satisfied with his bandage.
“Thank you,” Alita thanked him politely. She moved her butt back and away from him.
If she got too close, the longer she stayed, the more reluctant she would be to leave.
Jaydon also returned to his previous spot. “Miss Thompson, we’ve stayed behind because you’re afraid we won’t be able to find the markings and will lose our way in the dark, right?
“Yes, Mr. Lewis, you’re smart,” Alita replied with a smile. She thought it would be strange if someone shrewd like him could not guess
“Miss Thompson, you’re implying that you’re smart. You’re really not humble at all.”
“This should be considered a form of confidence.”
Jaydon laughed. “Overconfidence can become arrogance.”
They fought back and forth with their gazes. Evelyn listened at the side, leaning against Jaydon and falling asleep.
It was still raining outside. It was almost 5.30 pm, and the sky was already completely dark.
Jaydon gently placed Evelyn aside and covered her with a blanket. He got up and sat beside Alita. He approached her suggestively and blew hot air on her face. “It looks like we’re going to spend the night here.”
“Go away.” Alita glared at him and moved to another corner,
