Chapter 39: I Will Find You
Hazel took a deep breath and asked, “How do we get to the village on the mountain?”
Karla became a bit more vigilant. She didn’t answer directly. Instead, she said, “I’ll tell you after you pull me up.”
Hazel was speechless. It turned out Karla was worrying she would be left behind after she answered the question. Hazel stretched the stick down in front of her, and Karla hurriedly grabbed it. Hazel pulled her up.
Karla’s body become soft when she got up. She fell directly on the ground and cried.
“Don’t cry. Just tell me how to get to the village?” Hazel asked impatiently.
“Take, take the main road, and you will get there.” Karla was still crying.
“Stop crying already.” Hazel had to say, “Get up. Let’s go back and take the main road.”
Hazel did not cry a lot growing up. She had no idea how to comfort someone who was crying.
“I don’t want to go!” Karla cried even louder, “My foot sprained. It hurts! And my arms and body are scratched all over! I want to call Ivan to pick me up!”
Hazel frowned. She didn’t want to stay here with this spoiled girl.
“Well… you wait here.” Hazel threw the stick around her and said, “I will take the camera to them first. When you are okay, walk holding that stick in your arm.”
After saying that, Hazel is about to leave.
“Are you really going to leave me alone here?” Karla was anxious, “How can you treat a lady this way?”
“What the…” Hazel clenched her teeth, “Hey, you can stop that princess language already! I’m a lady myself! Do you think the world revolves around you? Come on, save it!”
Karla was stunned by what Hazel had said. Hazel turned and left.
Hazel was really annoyed by one thing. Did Karla regard her as not being a woman from the beginning?
Annoyed for a long time, Hazel suddenly stopped and looked around.
“What is this place?” “Hell no. I got lost?” Hazel wanted to cry.
Maybe she should have stayed with Karla and waited for others to find them.
Hazel took out the phone and pressed the power button.
Now she could only do what Karla said, call Ivan Lance and let him pick her up.
Hazel dialed Ivan’s number but couldn’t get through.
Hazel was in a panic. She dialed the number again but still couldn’t get through.
Suddenly, a thought jumped out of her mind. Could it be that her number had been added to the block of Ivan’s mobile phone?
Karla was indeed the one who would do this kind of thing.
Hazel was extremely desperate. She was lost, and she couldn’t get through to Ivan’s phone, and she had no phone numbers for the rest of the group. What should she do?
The clear weather also suddenly turned gloomy. After a while, a loud thunder roared in the sky, followed by a huge rain.
Hazel hurriedly hid under a big tree. She was getting more distraught.
She saw the weather over the mountains, and it was looking precarious like people said it could happen. She was in a terrible situation.
“What should I do now?”
Hazel was getting more desperate by the minute. She would consider whoever came to her aid to be her hero!
Suddenly, Hazel’s cell phone rang. The call was from a strange number, so Hazel hesitated for a moment and then answered it.
“Hazel, where are you?” Joshua whispered on the other end of the phone.
Hearing his voice, Hazel didn’t know what exactly was on her mind. This call… was actually from him?
She had just turned on her phone, and Joshua called. Had he been calling her all the time?
Hazel was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion and said, “I, I don’t know where I am now…”
“Hey, don’t be afraid. Just stay there. I will come to find you right away.” Joshua said.
“What?” Hazel was a bit astounded.
What did Joshua say just now?
She was on a mountain in another state. How could Joshua get to her “right away”?
“What is around you?” Joshua asked.
“There is grass and a lot of trees…” Hazel reached out her hands and covered her head from the falling raindrops.
She said, “Are you going to call the police to help me? I really don’t know where I am now.”
“Hazel, don’t worry. I will find you.” He said earnestly.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
His masculine voice passed through the handset and ran into her ears. Hazel’s heartbeat ramped up.
At this moment, she absolutely believed in what Joshua told her and suddenly felt at ease.
He told her not to be afraid or worry, that he would find her. An odd feeling crept up in Hazel, and she got distracted.
“Hazel.” Joshua suddenly spoke.
“Hmm?”
He was silent for a moment and then said, “Nothing. We can talk while we meet each other.”
“Okay,” Hazel answered.
How would they meet? Did he mean after she went back to the university?
After hanging up, Hazel suddenly felt a little awkward.
What should she say when she saw Joshua?
Suddenly, Hazel looked at the front in surprise.
A guy was moving quickly towards her holding an umbrella under the rain.
“Hey!” Hazel was happy. She couldn’t help but wave at the man.
It seemed that the man was watching her for a period of time before approaching her.
He walked faster the closer he got to her. As the man got nearer, Hazel’s surprise turned to shock!
Seeing this familiar guy appear in front of her and cover her head with an umbrella, Hazel looked at him disbelievingly. She still could not believe it!
The one who came looking for her was… Joshua? It turned out that he was honest.
But how did he get here?
Joshua reached out his hand naturally and grabbed her shoulder, “It is very dangerous to walk on the mountain in the rain. Follow me.”
Hazel instinctively wanted to dodge his touch, but she gave up after hearing what he said.
Soon, Joshua took her back to the main road. His car stopped at the side of the road.
“Get in.” Joshua opened the car door.
Hazel hesitated for a moment and didn’t get in the car.
“How did you get here?” Hazel raised her delicate face and asked.
“I checked the surveillance at your university gate and saw that you got in the car. Then I found out that the car came here and I followed it.” He explained.
