Chapter 346
Sienna lay flat on the ground, barely conscious. She gasped for help. Help help. is there… anyone?”
Her voice was just a whisper, so she raised her hand, made a fist, and with all her strength, banged on the door. That was all she could do, one strike. after another “Help me..”
Suddenly, Cedric stopped, his ears perked up.
- Someone was there, He could hear a voice. But it was faint; he couldn’t tell if it was Sienna. “Sienna, is that you?”
to miss that s
soft sound. He held his breath and listened hard.
Cedric’s throat tightened as he carefully slowed down trying not to
“Save me.” It was coming from that direction. It couldn’t be far. Cedric moved carefully, following the sound step by step. But then, the sound disappeared. Cedric looked around, confused,
Just as he wondered if he had misheard a loud crash rang out, a heavy object fell shaking the ground beneath him.
When he looked up, he saw the wall collapsing, the iron door leaning dangerously, almost crashing to the floor. At the entrance lay a fragile figure- a female,
‘Could it be Sienna? This thought raced through Cedric’s mind. He rushed to the doorway, stepped over the tilted door, and moved to the figure’s side. It was her just one look at her lying there confirmed in
Overjoyed, Cedric knelt down and carefully lifted her in his arms. “Sienna!”
Sienna’s eyes were shut; she had clearly lost consciousness. Cedric frowned and checked for her breath–too faint. She must have breathed in too much smoke. “Sienna, I will get you out of here!”
First, he covered her with a blanket, then, with firm determination, hoisted her onto his back. “Sienna, hold on!”
An ambulance was waiting outside. Once he reached the outside, she would get medical help. Cedric carried Sienna, carefully stepping over the tilted from door. Suddenly, another loud crash echoed behind him. The ground shook once more.
Turning back, he saw the iron door crash completely to the floor–right where Sienna had been lying. Cedric gasped, his heart racing with cold sweat. They had been so close. Luckily, he had found her just in time
If he had been just a moment later, even the firefighters arrival would have been pointless. “Sienna Cedric forced a wry smile, tag to lighten the dire situation, murmuring to her, “See? We are so lucky! After every disaster, good fortune comes!”
As he retraced his steps, torrents of water flowed heavily down, the flames gradually subsiding, and the thick smoke began to clear. The cargo bay lay in chaos, debris scattered everywhere.
Cedric moved carefully with Sienna on his back. Suddenly, a burning object sped toward them from the side. It was a flaming cargo box. Cedric shouted in alarm, instinctively raising his arm to shield her. In an instant, the e box crashed against his arm, flames rolling over him
Cedric grimaced, biting back the pain. The commotion seemed to wake Sienna on his back. Sienna struggled to open her eyes, somewhat dazed. her voice barely a whisper. “Who… who…”
“Sienna“” Cedric exclaimed with happiness, momentarily forgetting his pain. “You’re awake! It’s me, Cedric
“Celtic
“Yes! Yes, it’s met
Sienna, lying on him, whimpered solily, “Cedric Sienna’s awareness was fading, she murmured incoherently. “Help
help me…
Hearing her whimper, Cedric felt a pang of sadness; she must be scared. It was his fault. He should have taken her home when he found her. But he had just stood by and watched as the was taken,
Regres filled him, causing his voice to soften. “Sienna, I’m sorry, I came too late, but I’m here now. I’m here to save you. But Sienna fell silent again. Sirona?“
Ahead, a voice suddenly called out. “Over here!” Cedric looked up and saw firefighters coming. Among them stood Zach
Zach stared at Cedric, surprised. “Mr. Brawne?” He wondered what Cedric was doing here. Zach’s gaze then fell on Cedric’s back, his worry growing-

only was Cedric here, but he had also found Sienna
reached out. “Mr. Brawne, up here”
Ousade, a fancy Bentley screeched to a stop. Without waiting for it to fully stop, Josiah jumped out. “Mr. Flynn!” Chester hurried to him.
Jonah nodded, his forehead creased. Where is Sienna“”
“She has been found Chester replied, having just heard from Zach. “Zach is bringing her out!”
Found Joy flashed in Jouah’s eyes. He had gone through so much to get here.
“Yes! They are over there!” Chester pointed toward the firefighters lift, where, in dim light, Josiah could see a group of figures.
Sienna is up there? Luck is on my side–Sienna is safe! Josiah felt a tightness in his chest as he stepped forward, ready to catch her as soon as she come down.
However, as the lifi slowly descended, his expression grew darker with each inch. Why is Cedric here! And is it Sienna he is carrying?
Josiah glanced at Zach, who frowned. Sienna had been saved–thanks to Cedric. As the lift came to a stop, Josiah rushed forward and clearly saw Sienna sprawled across Cedric’s back.
So slender, so fragile–her face flushed with a light red, smudged with soot from smoke. Her eyes were closed, long lashes resting on her lower lids, looking lifeless. Josiah’s heart twisted painfully; he had come too late..
Even though he had rushed the moment he heard, too much time had been wasted on the way. Josiah reached out for Sienna, eager to check on her. “Sienna.“Yet his outstretched hand grasped only air
Cedric, carrying Sienna, stepped aside. Josiah Cedric met Josiah’s gaze with cold, steady eyes, firmly resistant. “We don’t know where Sienna is hurt, so it’s best not to move her too much.”
