President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 516

At this time, on the set.

Laura had been hanging below for ten minutes.

Peter and Nicole were anxious and thought of every way, but there was nothing they could do to save her.

Because there was only one scene on the mountain today, there were not many people here. Besides the lighting crew, some propmen and photographers, only Peter, a few male actors, and a makeup artist were here.

The sudden accident caught everyone off guard.

Peter yelled at the propmen, "Didn't you guys say you checked it before? What’s going on? This is what you called ‘checked’?"

They were a little aggrieved, "the bridge is not a prop. It's been here for a long time and it's always been strong. How could we have known it would break when Laura was walking on it?"

Peter was so angry he almost had a heart attack.

He turned to his assistant and asked, "Have you found anyone to help yet?"

The assistant shook his head awkwardly, "we’re in the middle of nowhere and it's raining. The crane can't get here anytime soon."

Peter was anxious, "What about the martial arts instructors? Tell them to bring wires over and save her."

The assistant was in a dilemma.

"There is no martial arts instructor here today. Because we can't bring a lot of props, the prop team didn't bring wires. We..."

"Enough!"

Nicole suddenly shouted, her eyes red with anger. She glared at those irresponsible people and shouted, "What are you doing? Laura has been hanging for more than ten minutes. How long can she hold on in the rain? Can somebody help her?"

The assistant looked at her and didn't say anything.

Nicole added, "There are no wires but you guys have ropes. Tie the ropes to your body and go down. Oh, come on! Man up, people!"

No one spoke or even looked at her. They all avoided her questioning gaze.

Nicole was desperate.

Just then, someone in the crowd whispered, "It's raining heavily and the rocks are wet and slippery. Nobody would go down there without any protection unless he wants to die!"

Before that person could finish his sentence, he was elbowed and shut up.

Peter looked mad, but he could not force people to go down there.

He instructed his assistant in a low voice, "Call the crew and tell them to send someone with tools here. By the way, call the police and see if they have a quicker and easier way to save her."

The assistant immediately did what he said.

Nicole knew that Laura would not be rescued anytime soon.

They called the crew and the police, but it would take them at least half an hour to get up here. Who knew if Laura could hold on that long?

She cried out in fear.

When Peter turned around and saw her crying, he was furious.

"Come on. Don't cry. You will be fine!"

Nicole said as she wiped her tears, "She's been down there for so long. How can she be fine?"

Her words made Peter a little worried.

He walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, only to see that it was so deep that Laura could not be seen.

"Laura, are you okay? Can you hear me?"

After a long time, a faint voice came from below.

"Yes."

The voice was faint, but it cheered up the crowd.

Everyone was excited. Peter said at once, "Don't worry. I've sent someone to get the tools. We'll go get you right away. How long can you hold on?"
