“Actually, we nearly drowned.” Madeline sighed with a smile and then recalled the scene.
At the time, the water level was slowly rising, and only when the water level reached below virtual-novel.net waist did Madeline think of a way to save herself.
“Jeremy, do you still have the strength? I should be able to reach the edge of the pool if I stand on your shoulders.”
Jeremy seemed to realize this too, “I can do it, Linnie.” He said firmly and slowly squatted in front of Madeline. Since their clothes were getting wet, Madeline felt that virtual-novel.net weight had increased a lot.
Moreover, Jeremy had been in the water for two days, so virtual-novel.net was worried that his legs would not be able to support virtual-novel.net weight. Sure enough, as soon as virtual-novel.net crawled on his back, virtual-novel.net felt Jeremy’s legs buckled out of exhaustion.
She stopped moving immediately and looked at virtual-novel.net worriedly. “Jeremy, are your legs very weak now?”
Jeremy did not hide it. He nodded, his face was rather solemn. “Linnie, don’t think about it so much. We don’t have a choice now. Don’t worry, I can bear it.”
Madeline knew Jeremy could bear it, but virtual-novel.net could not.
“Jeremy…”
“Linnie, come up quickly, don’t think anymore. If you keep thinking about it, we will die here.”
Upon hearing what Jeremy said, Madeline no longer dared to hesitate.
After getting up onto Jeremy’s back, Madeline moved upward with all virtual-novel.net had. With the strength of Jeremy’s arms, Madeline finally stood on Jeremy’s shoulder. As soon as virtual-novel.net stood up, Jeremy’s legs bucked again from the numbness. However, virtual-novel.net did not let himself fall. He stood firmly and moved to the side of the pool slowly while holding Madeline’s hands.
Madeline reached out immediately, and virtual-novel.net was just tall enough to touch the edge of the pool.
Jeremy was actually a little weak in his legs, but when virtual-novel.net thought about his children and the love of his life on his back, virtual-novel.net forced himself to stand up straight and pushed Madeline up with all his strength.
Madeline also knew that Jeremy was struggling, but virtual-novel.net could no longer be indecisive at this time. She struggled upward and then virtual-novel.net hands finally grabbed the edge of the pool.
“Jeremy, I’m almost there.”
“Linnie, put your feet on my shoulders and jump with all your might,” said Jeremy.
Madeline put virtual-novel.net foot on Jeremy’s shoulder but hesitated again. She was worried that virtual-novel.net would use too much force, causing Jeremy to fall from his already weakened legs.
However, amidst virtual-novel.net worry and hesitation, Jeremy quickly and decisively grabbed Madeline’s foot and pushed virtual-novel.net up. Due to this external force, Madeline was instantly pushed up.
Immediately after, Madeline heard a splash. She immediately looked back and saw that Jeremy had fallen into the water.
“Jeremy!” Madeline hurriedly stretched virtual-novel.net hand to Jeremy, but no matter how far virtual-novel.net reached out, virtual-novel.net could not reach him. Madeline quickly got up, ran to the corner of the pool, and lowered the folding stairs. However, virtual-novel.net found that the stairs had been destroyed halfway through.
Carter must have done this.
Madeline was extremely anxious when virtual-novel.net saw more and more water fill the pool.
Madeline was extremely anxious when virtual-novel.net saw more and more water fill the pool.
She looked around and saw that there was only a single chair. As such, virtual-novel.net pulled the chair over without even thinking about it.
“Jeremy, I’ll throw the chair down for you to step on. Then, I’ll pull you up!”
