President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 517

"What's going on?"

Max couldn't help but ask.

Peter told him the whole story right away.

When he learned that the bridge was broken and Laura was hanging below, he froze furiously.

"So why are you standing here? Why don't you guys save her?"

Peter didn’t know what to say.

"We tried to save her, but there’s nothing we can do to help. I just called for help, but it's raining and it'll take them at least twenty minutes to come from town. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on that long."

Nicole cried in anxiety.

"Max, you must save Laura. You are almost omnipotent. You can figure out a way to save her, can't you?"

Max's face turned livid.

"I'm not God. There are no tools here. What can I do?"

Their last hope was gone when they heard his words.

Just at that moment, there was a boom.

Thunder boomed in the sky.

Everyone was startled. Suddenly, they heard the sound of something snapping from below the cliff. Someone shouted, "The rope is about to break!"

Everyone panicked and ran to the edge of the cliff.

The rope attached to the bridge was cracked because it was worn by sharp stones. It was probably about to break.

"What do we do?"

Nicole shed tears of panic.

Max's face was gloomy. Suddenly, he turned his head and noticed a rope not far away.

"How long is that rope?"

Peter immediately knew what he wanted to do.

He frowned and said in a low voice, "It's raining so hard. It's not safe to go down with ropes. You could easily fall. This is several hundred meters deep."

Max didn't listen to him. He only asked angrily, "I'm asking you how long the rope is!"

Peter was shocked by him. He took a step back and replied, "It's about 50 or 60 meters. The bridge is 40 meters long. It should be enough."

Max didn't say anything else. He turned his head coldly and walked to the rope. He took off his wet jacket and began to wrap the rope around his waist.

"Max!"

"Max, what are you doing?!"

The rich men who came with him were stunned.

They all knew what he wanted to do.

They had known Max for so long. They knew that Max had always loved beautiful women, but they didn't expect him to do this for love.

He was going down with a rope in such heavy rain. He was risking his neck.

A close friend of Max’s immediately tried to talk him out of this, "Max, you really don't have to do this. Miss Davies is indeed a beautiful woman, but the rescue team will be here soon, won't they? You really don't have to go down yourself."

Max looked at the man coldly, "Can't you see the rope is about to break? Do you think she can possibly hold on for another 20 minutes?"

The man was speechless.

Another man also said,

"Max, this is so not you. You don't even know her well. Don't risk your life for her."
