The falling tower looked like a meteor on fire. Janet screamed and subconsciously pushed Brandon
away without hesitation.
Then she spread out her arms and stood in front of him to protect him from any falling debris.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. A blistering heat wave swept over as the tip of the tower
smashed into pieces on the ground, sending burning debris flying in all directions. It was like a
magnificent firework in bloom.
But it was the most deadly firework in the world.
While the tower didn’t land on top of the two people, it did smash into the ground violently, sending
burning shrapnel in all directions, many of which struck Janet’s back.
But she was too focused on protecting Brandon to notice.
It wasn’t until she was sure that Brandon was fine that she felt a burning sensation on her back.
She turned her head and to her horror, saw that the clothes on her back was on fire!
Terrified, Janet let out a blood-curdling scream.
“Don’t move!” Brandon reacted quickly, wrapping his arms around Janet and forcing her to roll around
on the grass with him. Soon, the flames were extinguished.
“Are you hurt?” Staring intently at the woman in his arms, Brandon didn’t realize how anxious his voice
sounded.
He raised a trembling hand and gingerly tried to lift the hem of Janet’s burnt top, but Janet stopped him
quickly. The falling tower looked like a meteor on fire. Janet screamed and subconsciously pushed
Brandon away without hesitation.
“I’m fine.” Janet didn’t want Brandon to worry about her, but her voice was shaky and she clearly wasn’t
fine. The cold sweat on her forehead and paleness of her face betrayed her true situation. She wasn’t
okay at all.
The sudden “fireworks” caused the crowd to panic. The onlookers around screamed and dispersed
hurriedly like mice.
The firefighters rushed over, put out the remaining fires on the ground, and began to evacuate
everyone in the amusement park.
Brandon helped Janet up. He also took this as an opportunity to lift her shirt gently to check her
injuries.
Fortunately, Brandon had reacted fast enough just now. The burns on Janet’s back weren’t too severe.
But it was still red and swollen, covered in nasty blisters.
“Don’t look… It’s ugly.” Janet almost cried out in pain when Brandon lifted her shirt, but she managed to
grit her teeth and didn’t make a sound. She didn’t want to show the man any weakness.
But Brandon saw right through her. He couldn’t understand why she was still pretending to be strong.
Indescribable, complex emotions surged in his heart. They had nearly died just now, but Janet risked
her life to protect him, completely disregarding her own safety.
As a result, she got hurt, but she didn’t want him to see her cry.
What a silly woman!
“Janet, you have to learn to protect yourself first.”
Upon hearing what he said, Janet looked up at him and met his cold and distant eyes.
She suddenly felt as though her heart was wrenched. When she saw the reproachful look on his face,
the tears that she had been holding back almost burst out on the spot.
How could he say that to her? She just saved his life!
Turning her face away silently, she didn’t want to look at Brandon anymore.
Only then did Brandon realize that he could’ve come across as too cold just now, but he didn’t know
how to salvage the situation. He could only fall into silence as well.
After what felt like an eternity, the suffocating atmosphere between the two was broken by the sound of
an ambulance’s siren.
The paramedics carefully carried Janet to the ambulance, and Brandon followed them. Janet quietly
looked at Brandon, who was sitting next to the doctor, shoulder to shoulder. His face was still cold.
At that moment, she missed the old Brandon more than ever.
The old Brandon would’ve held her in his arms, doing everything in his power to comfort her. However,
everything she missed about the old Brandon was gone. Now, only indifference remained in this new
Brandon’s eyes.
How did things turn out like this?
