The moment the two of them rolled down, Alistair stretched out his hand and hugged her tightly. Then the two of them rolled down the cliff…
As they were rolling down, Annabelle could feel a strong arm hugging her tightly… The man protected her head, her body…
After a long time, they finally came to a stop.
She didn’t know where and what they hit and she heard Alistair let out a muffled cry.
After a few seconds, Annabelle came back to her senses and she climbed out from his hug. It was a dark night and she couldn’t see clearly. However, they were face to face that she could vaguely see Alistair’s face. When she saw that the man shut his eyes tightly and his face was wounded all over, she called out softly, “Alistair, are you all right?”
The man wasn’t responsive.
“Alistair…” Annabelle called out again but he was still unresponsive.
Fear started to creep in Annabelle’s heart. She looked at the man and repeated, “Alistair, wake up, wake up…” Annabelle stared at him and her voice was trembling. She didn’t even dare to touch him, worrying that she might worsen his injuries.
Alistair didn’t move a muscle.
At that moment, Annabelle panicked.
She knew that the moment they rolled down from the cliff, he was hugging and shielding her from damage…
The moment she thought about that, she was trembling in fear. She tried her best to push herself up and sat beside the man. After that, she started to examine the wounds on Alistair.
His arms, shoulders, back were all wounded. There was blood all over him. At that moment, Annabelle was so anxious that she didn’t know what to do.
“Alistair…” Annabelle continued to call his name and tears flowed out from her eyes.
However, Alistair’s eyes remained shut and he didn’t move at all. It was as if her voice couldn’t reach him.
“Wake up, please…” Annabelle yelled. She was horrified and her face was pale white.
The woman was used to him being ruthless, cunning and a big bully. She hadn’t thought that he would sacrifice himself to save her.
No matter how composed and headstrong she was, now she was just in a mess.
If anything were to happen to Alistair because of her…
She was afraid to even think about that!
She didn’t even dare to imagine what will happen if the man was to disappear…
She hugged Alistair’s head and let him rest on her thigh. She looked at him and kept calling his name, “Alistair, wake up. Aren’t you the greatest? Wake up…” As she said that, her tears flowed down like a broken dam and dripped on Alistair’s face.
Fear, terror and an unnamed emotion overwhelmed her. Annabelle was crying unceasingly yet the woman seemed to be trying her best to control her sobbing.
At that time, Alistair’s eyes moved a little and he opened his eyes slowly.
When he saw that Annabelle was crying, he struggled to speak, “Stop crying, ugly…” He said that with a weak voice.
When Annabelle heard Alistair’s voice, she was shocked and she hurriedly looked at him. The woman was in elation, “Alistair, you are awake!” At that time, she didn’t have the slightest mood to argue with him. She would meekly accept anything he says.
“Yeah, I’m up. But I don’t know when I will black out again.” Alistair said slowly. His voice was very weak and the men didn’t seem to be joking.
He had suffered a heavy blow to the back of his head and rolled down the cliff taking most of the damage. He was not confident to stay awake.
Annabelle, “how do you feel… What should I do?” Annabelle stared at him and asked. The woman’s mind was completely blank.
She didn’t know what to do and simply looked around. It was just pitch black and she didn’t even know where they were. All she could hear was the sound of crickets and rustlings of leaves.
