Chapter 1547 A Trap
“Okay. Then wait here for me. I’ll go there right now.”
Vivian insisted on following along, probably because she had been terror-stricken earlier when two people suddenly disappeared from her side before her eyes.
Seeing her being so insistent, Duncan had no choice but to agree.
Although he agreed, it was still a dangerous move, since the water would get deeper as it approached the cliff. Things would have been easier if Duncan went alone. But now, he had to bring along another person.
Duncan said, “Vivi, if you want to come along, then you must keep close to me.”
Vivian promised, “Okay. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely follow closely behind you.”
She could not be bothered to think so much as she was anxious to look for her brother. As soon as she said that, she immediately wrapped her slender arms around Duncan’s.
Duncan was stunned, and his face flushed red.
“N-No. Not my arm. Take my waist. I need my arms to swim and bring you over,” he stammered.
Vivian was at a loss for words.
This time, she felt slightly uncomfortable.
She was, after all, a sixteen-year-old girl. Naturally, she knew that she should not have intimate physical interaction with a stranger or a person of the opposite sex. Hence, she released her grip on his arm, unwilling to accept his suggestion.
“I’ll just swim there on my own then.” With that, she got ready to swim over.
Duncan, who was still in the water, had a look of disappointment on his face.
Actually, he did not have any ill intentions. In fact, he had mustered up a lot of courage to utter those words.
Sadly, Vivian rejected him without giving it a thought. The fact that she rather swam there on her own instead of letting him bring her over upset him.
In the end, Duncan found a stick for her to hold on to before they started swimming over.
When they finally arrived at the bottom of the hole’s entrance, they got ready to climb upward. However, Vivian had always lived a comfortable life. Thus, it was impossible for her to climb up such a high place on her own.
Hence, she still let Duncan push her up.
Although the drenched girl was dressed in sports attire, having to sit on top of Duncan and let him push her upward was still a very intimate action.
Nonetheless, Vivian did not bother about it this time, as she was anxious to look for Ian.
This made Duncan feel a little better.
Soon, both of them climbed into the hole.
