Chapter 59 - She was Not their Savior
“It is reported that Rock Town, which is the closest town to Hearth National Park was also affected by the shock waves and flying rocks. Many people died…”
“At this moment, volcanic ash and volcanic gas are falling from the clouds. Please protect yourselves for your own safety…”
“This is the most tragic volcanic disaster in the history of humankind…”
“Please… nearby… residents… Leave…”
The news was cut off.
All the bodyguards could not say a word at this moment.
Only in the face of a disaster did they realize how small and weak humans truly were.
After a long time, the man with braided hair said with lingering fear in his voice, “If we didn’t leave in a hurry… would we also have died under the volcano?”
Everyone looked at Mary.
They knew that it was Miss Mary who had asked to leave as well.
When they left, many people were still complaining in their hearts, thinking that Miss Mary was making a mountain out of a molehill.
However, if the Boss hadn’t spoiled Miss Mary and trusted her, allowing her to make this decision, would everyone…
No one dared to think further.
So many people, so many tourists, such beautiful scenery, and so many cultural buildings. Who would have thought that they would all turn to dust in an instant?
It was too tragic!
Even though they had seen so much in their lives, and they were strong men whose hands were stained with blood and human lives, their mood still became heavy.
Mary also couldn’t come back to her senses.
She did not expect that the thing she was afraid of would actually come true!
She had always felt uneasy. She felt that something was going to happen, and that the hot spring had been boiling hot as a prelude.
She did not expect it to be true!
So many people… Women, old people, men, children…
So many families!
Mary felt very sad in her heart.
If she only she could have alerted others…
“Hey, little Mary, we were all lucky to escape. You can’t save everyone, you know? You’ve done the best you could! You saved us!”
Monroe seemed to see through Mary’s confusion. He grabbed her shoulder and faced her.
Mary’s light green eyes gradually came back to life.
She saw Monroe’s cold eyes staring at her and told her word by word, “You are not supposed to be everyone’s savior. You have done your best. You are great, little Mary. You are my pride!”
Monroe then pulled Mary into his arms.
He hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.
Mary was a little breathless in his arms, “I… Ahem…”
Monroe was shocked and let go of her.
“Are you okay?”
Monroe’s fingers caressed the hair on Mary’s face behind her ears.
He looked at her with a worried and gentle gaze, and for some reason, Mary felt a little flustered.
Was she feeling guilty and afraid to face him?
Mary smiled. “Thank you, I’m fine now.”
The five men who had been watching the show behind them all chuckled.
Mary felt that their laughter was a little vulgar.
Just as she was about to get out of the car to get some fresh air, Monroe grabbed her hand. “The front is clear.”
Mary looked up and the car finally started moving.
When they passed by a series of car accidents, the scene was tragic.
Mary turned her head away, but the men in the car were leaning against the window and watching more and more seriously.
“Their intestines are falling out, tsk!”
“That one’s head is gone!”
“That one doesn’t have a lower body, tsk!”
“Is the child alright?”
“I’m afraid the medical team and the rescue team won’t be able to get through, sigh…”
Mary rubbed her temples and looked at Monroe. “I think we need another car…”
Monroe nodded in agreement.
After another half an hour, the car finally cleared.
They drove out of the mountain road and came to a relatively flat area.
Just as they were about to find a place to stop and get something to eat, suddenly, there was an earthquake!
