Devote Your Life to Him
Julie said, “There was indeed a mudslide, but we were lucky. The direction of the mudslide wasn’t in the
direction we ran, s o we managed to escape.”
‘No wonder! We’re really lucky!’ Nicole thought.
“But it was a close call. If Clayton hadn’t arrived in time to save us, we wouldn’t have been able to
escape if the mudslide spread too widely.”
Yvette nodded. “I always thought that Clayton was treacherous and sly underneath his aloof front. It
looks like I was wrong about him. I was scared to death when you fell unconscious. Fortunately, he
arrived. Clayton knew the weather was bad but still came to find you because he was afraid that you’d
encounter a mudslide. To be honest, I haven’t been moved by a man for a long time.”
Julie poked her head with a finger.
“Is this the time to make heart-eyes at
someone?”
someone?”
Yvette rubbed her head sheepishly and sat down beside Nicole.
“Anyway, the man appeared in that life-o r-death situation. I feel like he’s completely flawless!”
Nicole’s chest trembled slightly.
Nicole thought about the man’s silhouette when she opened her eyes as she listened to Yvette and
Julie’s words.
She did not know how he got there. She also could not imagine how he felt as he drove alone along the
highway in the cold wind and heavy rain to look for her.
Nicole thought, ‘What if he didn’t find u s? What if he missed us? What if he was caught in the mudslide
too?’
No matter which “what if” scenario it was, Clayton had put his life on the line to
find Nicole.
It was no wonder Clayton had such a big reaction when Nicole tricked him into thinking that she had lost
her memory.
How sad would he be if I really forgot who he was?’ Nicole thought.
who he was?’ Nicole thought.
Julie said, “Now isn’t the time to talk about this. We’re still trapped in a nearby village. The mudslide
blocked the road, so rescue vehicles can’t get in, and we can’t get out either.”
Nicole pursed her lips and looked around. “No wonder this hospital looks like this
The condition of this hospital could not b e compared to the private hospitals in West City.
However, compared to last night’s conditions, this was considered heaven!
Yvette added, “Yeah… Clayton didn’t even think of how to get back when he came here. Do you feel
touched enough to devote your life to him now?”
Nicole’s heart prickled, but her expression was still pale and weak.
She looked at Yvette and said helplessly, “ Do you?”
Yvette looked disappointed. She wanted t o shake Nicole to see if she had a brain inside that head of
hers.
inside that head of hers.
However, she did not dare to.
“I was just touched. I don’t intend on putting myself on the hook. Besides, he came here for you. You
really don’t get the point!”
Julie was still calm.
“Don’t get hot-headed. She just got out o fa failed marriage. How would she fall back in so quickly? It’s
better if she stays
calm!
