“Don’t even say that! It’s not that bad! Isabelle reassured her, carefully trying to freewer leg, but the ankle was wedged deep in the thick mud and wouldn’t give.
Every slight movement sent fresh waves of pain through Diana’s body.
“I don’t want to die yet–I haven’t had my great love story, thaven’t gotten married…” Diana tried to distract herself with chatter, but they in her leg made it impossible to sound lighthearted,

eryone nodded in understanding.
Lynn rose slowly, feeling a dull throb in her knee.
She must have knocked it against something when she knelt down earlier, and in the urgency of treating Diana, she’d ignored it. Now it would surely bruise.
She rubbed the spot briefly and moved to stand beside Lucas.
Lucas frowned as he looked at her. With such a slender frame, how much strength could she possibly have? A privileged girl who’d probably never done manual labor was she just here for appearance’s sake?
His scowl deepened.
What a complication.

Her heart hammered with leftover fear, and her eye lifted to Lucas, who was still holding her with the beam dropping so suddenly. his shoulder must have taken the brunt of the impact.
And he hadn’t made a sound.
She was too shaken to even murmur thanks
She noticed Lucas‘ frown had tightened.
“Seen enough? Move!” Lucas ground out once she’d regained her balance.
A flash of irritation crossed Lynn’s features, but it vanished as quickly as it came. She carefully stepped Clear.
Only after confirming Diana was completely free did Lucas slowly lower the bears back down.
“There’s a triage and supply station set up on the village green ahead. Tell them you’re with Lucas‘ team–they’ll assist you.”
Lucas said this to Lynn.
His team?
Lynn wasn’t sure why he’d phrased it that way.
Whose team?
Did he mean Isabelle’s group, or…
In those two seconds of hesitation, Lucas‘ expression darkened further. “What are you waiting for? Go!”
So rude!
No wonder his engagement fell through!
With a temper like that, he deserved to be single forever!
Just then, a stretcher team arrived. Everyone worked together to carefully lit Diana onto it and followed the medics toward the
green.
Nearby, Lucas had already moved on to assist elsewhere.
Lynn watched his retreating figure and, for a fleeting moment, felt her thoughts scatter,
“We should do as he suggested,” Lynn turned and said quietly to Isabelle.
“Alright. Please be careful,” Isabelle reminded her.
“Mm,” Lynn replied, her mind still feeling knotted.
Lucas was so abrasive… and yet, somehow, he also seemed… decent.
No, what did that matter to her?
The engagement was off. Whatever he did was none of her concern.

“Are you really okay?“Isabelle asked hor.
Kylie managed a grin. “I’m fine just a minor sprain. It’s nothing serious”
Really they shouldn’t have run into trouble earlier. They’d only turned back to help an elderly woman and a child who had fallen behind, and that was how Diana had ended up trapped.
The elderly woman had been carried to safety first, and the child had gone with her, bot Diana’s extraction hadn’t been as straightforward.
Seeing that Kylie was truly alright, Isabelle allowed herself to relax a little.
She borrowed a satellite phone from a paramedic and tried calling Damian.
The call had just begun to ring when she heard a familiar ringtone nearby.
She stepped out of the shelter and saw Damian–phone in hand–hurriedly checking each tent, his expression strained.
His face was tense, the phone in his hand trembling faintly. His trousers were caked with drying mud, and his usually polished shoes were buried under a thick layer of grime.
He was still wearing the suit he hadn’t had time to change out of, and the rain had soaked his shoulders, turning the dark fabric an even deeper shade of black,
