Chapter 284
Even so, she drank a lot of water and passed out.
Mark brought her to the surface, ced her on the ground, and started performing chestpressions
with his big hands to release the water trapped inside. He then leaned over, his long tongue poking
through her clenched teeth, giving her rescue breaths.
Then her breathing quickened slightly and she seemed about to wake up. Mark gritted his teeth,
grimaced and pulled her away from him to sleep on the rock.
Out of the corner of his eye, through the clear water, h e could see that his hair was wet and his clothes
were alsopletely drenched and slightly torn. He looked terrible.
What was he thinking just now? He even tried to save her!
He desperately tried to save her even after she let Raine fall off a cliff. Well, he was crazy. He was. But
the emptiness in his heart was gone.
He did not pause for a moment as his eyes swept over her in a grim and gloomy way. Then he got up
and began to search around, and found Raine in a pile of fallen leaves.

She was not as lucky as the other two, but she was lucky enough to not to fall straight into the rocks
and die. The leaves underneath her were thick enough to cushion her fall.
But her cheeks were shed by branches growing from the cliff. The left side of her face was fine, but
the right side of her face was scratched so badly that i t was almost unrecognizable, and there was
blood on i t.
Mark stared at Baine, his heart aching like the crisscross of wounds across her cheek.
He picked Baine up, lovingly and carefully, and he noticed that there was a cave beside him. He made
a fire and put Baine there.
It was raining so hard that they could not walk. The road from here to the exit has not been fixed yet, so
it was impossible to walk that path. Moreover, Baine was not in a good position to move around.
When Summer woke up, she found herself in a cave, with a fire burning and jumping in front of her.
She was still alive!
She slowly sat up on the floor, propped herself up on her hands in pain, and with one nce, she saw
them. Mark sat there and Bainey in his arms, their bodies close together.
Baine''s clothes were torn to pieces when she fell. And now, her clothes seemed to have been ripped
off by Mark.
He was topless. Raine, on the other hand, was naked, wearing nothing but underwear and a bra. Her
face was pale and the right side of her face was badly scratched.
Mark carefully cradled her in his arms and pressed her body against his. His big hand gently brushed
away the loose strands of hair on both sides of her cheek.
Mark heard the noise, but he did not even look over at Summer, as if she did not exist.
She had decided to give him up when she was at the top of the hill, and now this scene added to her
despair.
It was raining heavily in the mountains, and it was cold inside the cave. Summer was cold, too,
especially with her wet clothes clinging to her body. She was shivering and her teeth were chattering.
The fire was right in front of her, so close to her, but it seemed so far away. She propped herself up and
sat far away in the corner. No matter how cold she was, it could notpare with the icy coldness that
chilled her to the bone.
From the beginning to the end, he did not look at her, let alone ask her to warm herself by the fire. He
was just carefully taking care of Raine in his arms as if that was his treasure.
There were three of them sitting inside the cave, but it was so quiet that she felt suffocated and could
hardly
breathe.
After a long time, Raine coughed softly and opened her eyes slowly and weakly. She looked at Mark
and tears ran down her right cheek. She felt the pain.
"Raine, don''t worry, I''m here..." His deep voice was soft, and his big hands gently wiped away her
tears, preventing them from crossing those wounds.
