Emily and other colleagues, as the third batch of people who were transferred, left the slums at noon and arrived at a safe area nearby.
On a flat ground near the mountain, there were many tents of all sizes and many people walking around. They were all survivors of the earthquake. Some were in good condition and some were wounded. Emily was in one of the tents.
She leaned against the entrance with her eyes fixed on the setting sun in the sky, and looked a little distracted.
She thought that Simon still couldn't forget...
A deep voice sounded in her ears. That handsome face appeared in her mind.
His outline was clearer than before. Even in such an environment, he still looked very handsome. However, when he said this, he lowered his eyelids, looked at the shadow on the ground, and looked desolate...
"Emily, what are you thinking about?"
Misha walked in the tent, covering her forehead with her hand. Her wound had been bandaged.
Emily came back to her sense and shook her head. "Nothing!"
"Come on, it's important to fill the stomach!" Misha said as she gave her a sandwich.
The sandwich was wrapped in the tinfoil. It was cold. But under such conditions, it was better to have food to eat. Before the rescue team arrived yesterday, they were all hungry. Today, they had food to eat for three meals. They were already satisfied.
The supplies were limited. There were not many usable beds, so thin blankets were placed in the tents and they were all sitting on the blankets.
"Thank you!" Emily stretched out her hand to take it.
Misha ran to her side, opened the tinfoil outside, and said while biting, "There are a lot of supplies sent here. I'll get two big coats for us to wear in case it's cold at night. According to the situation, we'll have to stay here for at least two days!"
Hearing this, Emily shrugged and said, "Angelina has called to say that the superiors have asked us in the disaster area to bring some reports back as much as possible. Maybe well have to stay a few more days!"
The communication was restored not long after the rescue team arrived in the morning.
She told her family and friends who lived far away in Ice city that she was safe. At the same time, the work unit in the city assigned tasks. They were in the disaster area, so the work unit did not intend to send more people and asked them to collect some news for follow-up reports.
Misha was unhappy as she heard that. "Ah, it's so unlucky!"
Emily smiled and didn't say anything.
Misha soon ate up the sandwich and she was going to get the supplies.
In less than two minutes, Emily also finished eating and drank some water. She felt a little stuffy in the tent for the whole afternoon, so she also went out, intending to walk around. Then the black girl ran over to her.
However, there was no panic on her face this time. Instead, she showed a sweet smile.
After throwing herself in front of Emily, she mumbled a lot, seemingly saying that Emily had helped the lady before. Then, she clasped her hands together and said in a low voice, "Miss, thanks to you. Jesus bless!"
"You should thank the male doctor!" Emily said with a smile.
She didn't want to take credit. After all, it was Simon's credit that the woman was rescued. In fact, she didn't do anything. At most, she just helped him find some drugs and medical equipment.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
