Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run novel Chapter 294

Finally, with a determined shove, she flung herself and the door into the cabin, leaving the raging storm outside. Shivering from the cold, she quickly switched on the heater and sniffled.

Her phone still had no signal, leaving her stranded and unable to reach anyone. She had no clue when the storm would blow over, but it couldn't last more than a week, right?

With nothing else to do, she decided to change out of her wet clothes. Luckily, the closet had some extra linens, and the bed was neatly made with fresh blankets. She sneezed, hunching her shoulders against the chill.

Peeling off her soaked clothes, she took a hot shower, which warmed her up a bit. Then, she lay down, listening to the storm's fury outside, planning to sleep and figure things out later.

Suddenly, her phone rang. Did she finally have a signal? She grabbed it quickly. It was Aiden calling, but the signal was patchy.

She only caught, "The CEO came to the island to find you."

Clara thought she must have misheard and quickly asked, "Aiden, are you kidding? In this weather, you let Mr. Dylan come out here alone? His leg's still healing!"

But the connection was choppy again, and she couldn't make out anything else. Clara took a deep breath, touched by Dylan's gesture but worried sick about him.

The island felt like a scene from a disaster movie, with debris swirling in the wind. Getting hit could be disastrous. There was no way she could sleep now. She hurriedly put her wet clothes back on and braved the storm again.

The rain pounded her face harder, like tiny needles. She struggled forward, clinging to trees to keep from being swept away.
