Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO By Woody Rain Chapter 98


    Chapter 98 A Big Fire


    After Betty got out of Jeffrey‘s car and returned to her vi, she ate dinner as she usually did. Soon she


    went for a bath before going to bed.


    She felt strange and extremely sleepy that day and even when she was taking a bath, she felt dizzy. Al


    most as soon as her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep. No dream had interrupted her sleep.


    She didn‘t know howte it had been when she was awakened by a pungent smell of smoke.


    She coughed while she was sleeping, feeling stifled by the smoke.


    Then she struggled a little and woke up. Her eyelids were heavy and her eyes ached because of the s


    moke.


    There seemed to be something wrong. She got up quickly. But when she sat up, Betty


    found her body so weak that she had no strength at all.


    The woman wondered what went wrong with


    her.


    But she could not care so much at that


    moment. She turned on the light on the bedside table immediately.


    Then she saw the whole room submerged in the billowing ck smoke.


    Was it on fire?


    Betty was so frightened. The pungent smoke made her cough worse. But she calmed down as soon as


    she could. Then she stumbled out of bed, dragging


    her tired body, grabbed her coat and rushed out of the room.


    But when she opened the door, she waspletely dumbfounded.


    There was a spreading fire.


    Thanks to the door, the mes didn‘t burn


    its way into her room. But now that she was at the entrance, she saw the whole corridor was gobbed by


    the fire, the tongues of the mes greedily licking the pirs and walls.


    “Lillian! Robert!” At that moment, Betty was still worried about the two


    elderly people in the vi. But no one responded after she called several times. Then she was choked a


    gain by the smoke.


    She couldn‘t care too much at the moment. She had to get herself out of danger first.


    But it was impossible for her to escape such a big fire by rushing out directly. It was toote.


    She tried to calm down and ran back to the room, closeing the door. Betty rushed into the bathroom wit


    h a nket in her hand. She then soaked the fabric in the water, and then put it around her shoulder an


    d rushed out again.


    With the protection of the dampened


    nket, she felt bolder. She lowered her body as


    much as possible in the burning corridor to avoid inhaling too much smoke.


    When she finally reached the stairs, she found the fire was bigger. Several steps had been burnt down,


    which made it impossible for her to get through.


    When Betty was in a panic, she suddenly saw a cloud of violent smoke billowing and approaching her.


    She looked at the fog and was stunned for several seconds before she realized it was smoke from


    a fire extinguisher.


    The next second, a familiar slender body rushed over through the smoke.


    “Betty, where are you?”

    Upon hearing the sound, Betty felt shocked yet delighted. She screamed as if she finally had the hope


    of being saved. “Jeffrey, I‘m here!”


    The fire seemed to subside a little. But soon after Betty saw Jeffrey running towards her, a railing in the


    corridor suddenly fell off due to the fire andy across the corridor, which separated the two of them. T


    he fire surged again.


    “Damn it.” Betty heard Jeffrey muffled a curse. And he yelled to her, “Stay there and I‘lle to your re


    scue right away.”


    Before Betty responded to Jeffrey, all of a sudden she remembered something.


    Kerwin‘s ne was still in the room.


    She was certain about it.


    Kerwin loved the ne deeply. He never brought it out of the vi. He usually kept it in the drawer w


    hen he went to work or went on business.


    She was afraid if the fire was so fierce, the ne might not be intact since the fire


    could certainly burn the table down.


    Chapter 98 A Bir Cire


    If so, Kerwin would be devastated.


    She thought of the scene when he held the ne with a sorrowful look, and she suddenly felt bitter.


    She hated it when she could be safe and sound while leaving Kerwin‘s treasure back in the room to be


    burnt to ashes without helping him retrieve it at all.


    Although she knew that the ne was not a living creature but a thing, it was still her husband‘s bel


    oved treasure. She really couldn‘t have it deprived of him. That was almost hisst hope in the world.


    Thinking of this, she looked at the nket on herself. It was


    still wet. She could use it to keep off the harm of the mes for a while. The fire was not as ferocious as


    it was before. And perhaps it would still take Jeffrey some time to get to her.


    So she bit her lips, held her breath and screamed, “Jeffrey, I have to go back to the


    Chapter 98 A Rio Gira


    room to get something.”


    Jeffrey was struggling to put out the fire. He heard Betty‘s yelling and shouted back


    to her with rage, “Betty, are you crazy? What can be more important than your own life?”


    She didn‘t say anything more and ran back to the room directly without hesitation.


    Her body felt kind of fatigued for some reason. But she could not pay attention to it. She just held her br


    eath and darted back to the room.


    She ran too fast, and inhaled too much smoke. The dark fog made her cough badly, but she kept walki


    ng and rushed to the table.


    She didn‘t close


    the door when she left the room before, so at that time the fire had already spread into the room. The ta


    ble was burning, Betty went over to open the drawer with the nket draping on her shoulders.


    But the fabric was almost dried up by the fire.


    And her hands were nearly scalded at that moment.


    “Ouch,” she screamed in pain. But she was determined to pull out the drawer anyway.


    Soon, she spotted the crystal ne, taking it out swiftly.


    Then she also wanted to take the photo out, but it was abustible object and once it was taken out,


    it was burned down immediately.


    She gave up the picture, and held the ne tightly, but did not dare to exert too much force so as to


    break it.


    When she rushed to the door


    to try to get out, the bookcase by the entrance suddenly copsed with a thump.


    All the books on the shelf had long been burned to ashes. The wallpaper of the shelf blocked the passag

    backwards, feeling frightened.


    “What am I going to do?”


    The door was blocked at once. She didn‘t know how to get out then.


    She thought of rolling onto the ground out of the room with the nket around her. But the fabric piece a


    She was in a dilemma. At that moment, she even regretted her whimsical and impulsive decision.


    “Oh! Could it be that I‘m going to die with this ne?”


    She didn‘t know if she was really going to die in this fire, would Kerwin moan for her or wept for the lost j


    Probably thetter.


    After all,pared with Julia, whom he had once loved so dearly, she was


    just a stranger whom he had met for a few months.

    Betty couldn‘t believe she would still think too much at such a critical moment.


    The fire around her is getting more and more


    treacherous. She


    could hardly see the corridor clearly. The smoke was getting thicker. She coughed and tears blurred her


    eyes.


    “Am I going to die here?”


    When she was nearly about to copse, she carefully put the ne around her neck to protect it.


    If someone had found her and the ne on her corpse, Kerwin could understand her good–


    willed intentions. She hoped her husband could appreciate it and would take


    good care of her mother after she died.


    While she was weeping and thinking, she


    suddenly heard a loud roar…


    “Betty!”
