    Chapter 316 Isabe''s Life Hangs In The Bnce


    Isabe was consumed by anxiety, worried that Seth may have severely injured his arm. However, she couldn''t express her concerns directly, knowing that Seth wouldn''t want to stop when he was in a bad mood.


    They continued their journey until sunset. Alice suggested they stop for the day and asked Seth to transport the wheat back on his bike.


    Seth didn''t respond, but Isabe felt as though she had been given permission.


    "You stay here and keep an eye on the wheat," Alice instructed.


    Isabe nodded in agreement without much thought.


    Seth nced at her. "Stay alert and be aware of your surroundings."


    Isabe understood his meaning. "I understand."


    Having been attacked just the day before, there could be lurking danger. As Isabe watched the trishaw disappear into the distance, she sat down in the wheat field. With the surrounding crops, she was practically invisible from the outside. After a long day, her body felt ufortable.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Leaning on her knees, sleepiness overcame her. Something hissed.


    A faint sound brushed past her ear, but Isabe didn''t pay much attention.


    I''m so sleepy...


    Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her ankle! Isabe opened her eyes and was immediately terrified. She saw a snake with yellow and green stripes! She had been bitten, but fear instantly took over. She screamed and ran out of the wheat field. There was no one on the field ridge, and Seth hadn''t returned yet. The image of the snake filled her mind, and the faint sound of the snake hissing seemed to reach her ears again as the wind blew.


    "Seth!" she shouted, but there was no response.


    Isabe didn''t dare to stay in one ce. She wanted to run further away, but she didn''t know if the snake was venomous. The pain in her ankle was intense, and she couldn''t move one of her feet.


    There it was. The hiss again. Whether it was an illusion or reality, the faint sound seemed to be constantly circling in her ears. Even though Isabe was usually brave, she was now terrified. She cried and shouted at the same time. Fear and pain alternated, and her other leg seemed to be numb. She didn''t dare to look at the wound, and she felt like her breathing was bing rapid. Her whole body felt ufortable. The snake was likely venomous, and the venom was acting fast.


    What should she do? Was she going to die here? "Seth..."


    She cried and shouted, thinking of her mother in the sanatorium. She was terrified. If she died here, what would happen to her mother? Her mind was filled with chaotic thoughts when suddenly she heard footsteps approaching. Isabe still had her wits about her. She remembered that Seth had ridden his bike back, so the personing couldn''t be him. She quickly stopped crying, but she couldn''t stop the tears. "Isabe!"


    It was Seth! Isabe was overjoyed. She raised her hand despite the pain. "Seth, I''m here!"


    Seth stood on the field ridge, only seeing a hand waving in the field. He guessed that something must have happened. He ran to Isabe and saw her crying with a face that looked as if she was on the verge of death. "I was bitten by a snake! I think it''s venomous. I can''t breathe!"


    Seth''s eyes darkened, and without hesitation, he squatted down and lifted Isabe onto his back. "Don''t just cry. Focus on your breathing."


    If the venom could affect her breathing, then it was a potent one. Seth was also in a state of disarray. He carried Isabe and started running back.


    Isabe was still terrified. "What about the trishaw?"


    "The chain broke." It couldn''t have broken at a worse time.


    Isabe took a deep breath, feeling scared, thinking this was a bad omen. Shey on Seth''s back, finding it difficult to even speak. "Seth, I might... die..."
