To make matters worse, it seemed like his safety rope wouldnât hold for much longer. Fortunately, it was daytime, and there was still some light coming from above.
Emmanuel surveyed the surrounding environment and noticed a small cave not far away, which should barely
accommodate both of them.
In the next moment, he single-handedly held Ashton, enduring the pain, and crawled toward the cave.
After some climbing, they finally landed safely with a bit of excitement. However, his safety rope, worn down by the excess weight and friction, was practically useless now.
Emmanuel gently laid Ashton flat on the ground, quickly discarded the ropes from his body, and hastened to check
her condition.
The woman was still breathing; it seemed she had fainted due to excessive pain and a recurrence of internal injuries, but her life was not in immediate danger.
Emmanuel noticed blood oozing from her chest and had to undo her uniform to prepare to rebandage the wound.
As usual, she wore only pasties, and her clothing was as bold as ever. Her figure was impressive, but unfortunately, the injuries made Emmanuel uninterested.
In this remote location, Emmanuel couldnât find any bandages or medicinal herbs. He could only stimulate a few
acupoints for her and then tore off his shirt, tying it into strips to dress her wounds.
After finishing the dressing, Emmanuel checked his own injuries. His right arm was severely swollen, making it difficult to exert force. It would probably take three or four days to fully recover.
At that moment, Ashton slightly opened her eyes. Seeing a shirtless man in front of her and feeling a cool sensation on her body, she suddenly sat up.
âYou pervert! How dare you take advantage of me in my vulnerable state?!â Ashton instinctively slapped him.
Given her beauty and good figure, there had been no shortage of men who had tried to take advantage of her in the past. Some of them were probably turning in their graves now. Little did she expect that this man would repeatedly undress her. Did he want to follow in their footsteps?
âAlright, since you feel that way, I wonât meddle any further,â Emmanuel said, appearing ready to leave by hanging on the rope.
âHey!â Ashton was infuriated. Is he serious?! If I could climb down on my own, wouldnât I have done it long ago? Would I need you to come? Need I no dignity?! Canât you go along with me just this once?
âWhatâs wrong?â Emmanuel climbed back up, holding onto the rope.
Of course, he had long known Ashtonâs condition. If she could climb down on her own, he wouldnât have gone through the trouble of climbing up the mountain and jumping down. But whoâd have thought she would prefer the

âWhatâs wrong?â Emmanuel climbed back up, holding onto the rope.
Of course, he had long known Ashtonâs condition. If she could climb down on her own, he wouldnât have gone through the trouble of climbing up the mountain and jumping down. But whoâd have thought she would prefer the agony of pride to the pain of humiliation, even at this timeâ¦
âHmph, since youâre already here, I donât want to make you run for nothing. Iâll reluctantly accept your help!â Ashton proudly said. âYou should be grateful; Iâve never accepted help from any man before.â
Emmanuel chuckled. This aspect of the woman was somewhat similar to his wife. However, he still found his wife
more adorable.
Emmanuel directly tied the rope around her, not using any protection for himself.
âWhat⦠What are you doing?â Ashton was quite surprised. Just a moment ago, she was scolding this man for lacking manners, and now he was risking his life to protect hers.
âWhat do you think? I just donât want you to fall and die from trying to show off, and Captain Payne wonât come
asking me for a corpse later,â Emmanuel casually remarked, instantly dispelling any gratitude Ashton might have
felt.
What a sharp-tongued man! What does Mackenzie see in him?
âWell, canât we both be tied together?â Ashton said, still acting spoiled. âAfter all, Iâm not delicate, and I donât subscribe to the idea of gender-based propriety.â
âYou donât?â Emmanuel paused, then laughed, âWho does, then?â
I saved you twice and almost got slapped both times! You donât subscribe to the idea of gender-based propriety, huh? Hmph, what a hypocrite!
âYou!â Ashton angrily pointed at him.
âEnough, letâs just leave it like this. Itâll be uncomfortable for me if weâre tied together. Yours is too big!â Emmanuel bluntly spoke.
Even Sarahâs wasnât as big as hers, and he wondered what she ate to grow like that. He certainly didnât want to die from suffocation.
âYou!â
