It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1536

"Major General Gu!" The soldiers weren't expecting the aftershock to hit so quickly. As soon as the aftershock stopped, they called out for their Major General.

"Help him! Hurry up!" Lee yelled, his face pale as death, as he picked up a shovel and began to excavate the ruins. He hoped that Kevin was able to find a safe place to protect himself from the rubble.

"Hurry up, guys! And be careful not to hurt him!" the Platoon Leader demanded and joined in with the other soldiers to find Kevin.

At that moment, Leena was drinking lemonade in a cafe. As she was about to take the glass, it slipped from her hand and smashed on the floor. As she looked at the shattered pieces on the floor, her heart fluttered with an ominous anxiety.

'Why is this happening? Why do I have this horrible feeling?' she asked herself. She bent over to pick up the broken glass, but she cut her finger on a sharp fragment and blood oozed out. "Ow!" she gasped and looked at her bleeding finger.

She panicked and wondered, 'Is everything okay in S City? Why am I seeing so many bad omens today?'

The secret guard sent by Jonathan quickly appeared before Leena when he heard the sound of glass breaking. "Oh my god, are you okay? You're bleeding! Let me wrap your finger up," he said, furrowing his brows when he saw that she was hurt.

"Adonis, could you call your master and ask him if everything is all right in S City?" It was the first time that Leena had made a request to him after she had left S City. She grew more and more restless. She just had to make sure that there was nothing wrong.

"Sure, I'll call him. But only after I finish bandaging your finger. And please remember, do not pick up the fragments again. Just ask the waitress or use a broom if you wish to clean it yourself," he said in a soft voice. Adonis was his code name in the organization, and he had already forgotten his real name.

"Okay." Anxious as she was, she had to listen to Adonis. She knew that he was Jonathan's right hand man and was capable of taking care of everything. No matter which country she went, he was able to learn about their local culture and give her advice.

While Adonis talked to Jonathan on the phone, Leena waited anxiously.

"Master said that nothing out of ordinary has happened in S City. An earthquake occurred in a domestic coastal city, but S City was not affected," Adonis said in a reassuring voice. Adonis knew that Jonathan wouldn't lie to him. And even if there was a big accident in S City, Jonathan would call him immediately.

"Really? That's a relief," Leena said, heaving a sigh. She should have been happy at the news, but somehow, she was still fidgety. Her mind was still not at ease.

When the soldiers dug the ruins out and found Kevin, he was unconscious. No matter how hard they tried to wake him up, he didn't respond at all. If it weren't for his heaving chest, they would have believed that he was dead.

"Major General Gu, wake up!" Lee provided first aid and carried out the emergency assistance, but it did not work. Kevin lay still on the stretcher.

"Get out of the way! The doctor is here," a soldier shouted as he ran towards them, followed by a doctor. Most buildings in the city had been ruined in the earthquake, including the hospitals. Therefore, the situation was dire.

"The patient is seriously hurt, and needs to be treated as soon as possible. But as you can see, our hospital has also been damaged," said the doctor as he carefully assessed Kevin's injuries. After providing some immediate medical care, the doctor said, "He must be transferred to a hospital immediately."

"We need a helicopter to transfer Major General Gu to S City right away. That is the closest city from here," Lee said to the Battalion Commander, who was standing next to him.

"Sure, I'll arrange the helicopter. You stay with him and make sure he's okay." The Battalion Commander quickly left the scene to arrange for the helicopter, without wasting a single second. He couldn't afford to lose Kevin here.
