Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 700

Angela froze in place. When had she ever seen him so fiercely protective of a woman?

It was infuriating! Natalie was clearly her biggest threat.

But why? She was inferior to her in every way.

***

Mount Crestfall.

Natalie and Darren were searching for Hanley on the mountain together.

"Hanley, where are you?"

"Hanley, where are you?"

Natalie and Darren shouted Hanley's name, but there was no response. Finding a small child on the vast mountain was far from easy.

"Hanley, where on earth are you?"

Just then, Darren suddenly spotted Hanley's hat.

"There... that's Hanley's hat."

Following the direction Darren was pointing, Natalie saw the hat and rushed over to check.

But as she reached the spot where the hat lay, she suddenly found nothing but empty air beneath her feet.

There was no time to react. Her body plunged downwards.

Just as she was about to fall, Darren grabbed her hand.

She was left dangling in the air, with nothing but darkness below her. It felt like falling into that abyss would be a death sentence.

Darren held onto Natalie's hand tightly, trying to pull her up.

"Natalie, hold on! I'll definitely pull you up!"

At that moment, she noticed the ground under Darren was starting to crack, as if it couldn't bear their combined weight and was about to collapse.

"Darren, let go! If you don't, you'll fall with me!"

"I'm not letting go," Darren said firmly through gritted teeth. "I let go of your hand once. I'll never let go again."

"Are... are you okay?"

Natalie asked weakly. Darren took it as a sign that she still cared for him, and he was overjoyed.

"I'm fine, I'm fine. You... you still care about me."

While Darren was lost in his own blissful thoughts, Natalie couldn't afford to pay him any mind.

All she wanted now was to get out.

Natalie looked around. The opening of the pit was too high to climb out of. What were they going to do now?

Natalie took out her phone, but there was no signal at all.

"Why is there no signal? Does your phone have a signal?"

Darren said, "My phone doesn't have a signal either."

At that, Natalie's panic intensified.

"What do we do now? We're trapped here! What about Hanley?"
