Chapter 697
Ian was straddling between two balconies. His right foot was on this side, but his left was still on his balcony.
Olivia's appearance put him in a hard place. He did not know what to do and could only look at her blankly.
"It's a misunderstanding."
"A misunderstanding?"
Olivia looked at his shaking leg behind him. "Explain why you climbed the balcony when you knew I needed to change my clothes."
Ian bit his lip and said nothing.
"Cat got your tongue? Is that what your sister taught you?"
As soon as she finished, Ian loosened his left leg and tried to step over, only to lose strength in his right leg and fall straight through.
Olivia quickly reached out and grabbed him. "Ian, hold on tight."
Olivia struggled with Ian's sole weight on her hand. "You need to get to the edge of the balcony."
"No, I've run out of energy."
She wanted to scold him, but seeing him hanging outside the balcony, her heart melted again.
Although it was the second floor, and it was not very high, there was a gravel road underneath. If he fell, he might break a leg or something.
Suddenly, Olivia slipped and almost fell. "Ah!"
"John! Hurry and help! Ian is going to fall!"
She had no choice but to shout for John.
However, nothing happened after shouting once, so she could only shout again, "John! Get the f*ck over here and help! I can't hold on any longer!"
Fortunately, John had already come running in when she shouted a second time.
"Johnny, hurry and pull him up. I have no strength..."
As soon as she saw John, she felt as if she had seen a savior.
"I'll take his right hand, and you can take his left."
"Okay."
Olivia's hands were already shaking, but she dared not relax for Ian's sake. She gritted her teeth and pulled him up with John.
