A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155 

Isaac’s voice came from her side but the scaffolding fell quickly. Hesper closed her eyes, but a hand pulled her aside. 

There was a loud noise and the floor shook. A corner of the building roof that was standing dangerously finally collapsed. 

“It’s the aftershock! Move away quickly!” 

“Ma’am!” 

Isaac wanted to rush over but the people next to him pulled him back as he watched her become engulfed by the falling building. 

“Ma’am-” 

The scaffolding fell on her back, but thanks to that hand that pulled her away, she wasn’t hit in the important parts. She couldn’t speak because of the pain in her back. Isaac’s voice got dimmer and dimmer outside of the fallen building. 

“Are… are you alright? Are you alright?” 

The corner of the roof that fell blocked the area in front of Hesper. She raised her head up despite the pain and realized she was trapped in a tight space that looked like a house. However, only a small triangular space was left after it caved in. 

There was a source of heat close to her that was shaking more than she was and there was a hand that was touching her. 

Hesper turned around and saw that it was a woman whose face was covered in dust who saved her. The woman seemed to be around her age, but her eyes were filled with panic, her eyes darting around. 

She was… mentally disabled? 

“I’m fine.” 

Hesper’s back was hurting terribly, but seeing how anxious the woman was, she forced herself to calm down. “Don’t be afraid. It looks like it won’t collapse.” 

Maybe it was Hesper’s words or maybe because she noticed that the place was stable, but the woman calmed down, then leaned on Hesper’s side and started sobbing. 

After inhaling a lot of dust, Hesper held back the urge to cough because she was afraid that it would hurt her back more. 

If it this woman hadn’t pulled her away, she might have died. The woman looked like a small animal, so Hesper held out her hand to hold hers. 

“Thanks for helping me. If we do get out, I’ll repay you. 

The woman kept her eyes on Hesper, then shook her head. Tears started streaming down her face as she said, “You… you’re so pretty. I saved you. It’s fine.” 

Hesper nodded and closed her eyes and found somewhere to lean against so the muscles on her back weren’t strained. However, she could feel blood coming out from the wound on her back as if the life force in her body slowly drained away. 

“Someone will come. Don’t be afraid.”
