After a flurry of orderly activity, Sumr Monroe was given an oxygen mask, and the parts of her body that had been burned were given temporary treatnt.
"The patient is severely dehydrated and has varying degrees of burns; she needs to be taken to the hospital imdiately," the nurse said, instructing two hospital staff to move Sumr onto the stretcher.
Sumr felt intense noise in her ears; she frowned slightly and slowly opened her eyes.
What she saw was a sky full of white clouds and blue. She blinked twice to confirm she wasn’t dreaming.
She was out!
Sumr hurriedly looked around; she was not far from the building outside. She quickly searched for any sign of Damian Knight but did not see him. Everyone, including herself, was evacuating.
Sumr instantly sat up, grabbed soone at random and asked, "Why is everyone retreating?"
The person froze for a mont, then cheerfully spoke, "Miss, you’re awake? When I carried you out, I almost thought you had stopped breathing... Was it you who saved the children?"
Sumr didn’t answer, instead jumping off the stretcher and anxiously asked, "Did you save ? After I ca out, did my friend get out? He’s very tall, wearing a suit and shirt..."
The man asked in shock, "There are still people inside?! The building will collapse in a minute! It’s already leaning over..."
Sumr’s heart raced, "You an he hasn’t co out?!"
She grabbed the man’s collar and said, "Quick, get him out! He went to look for a child who got separated from us, he’s inside!"
As Sumr spoke, tears involuntarily stread down her face.
The filming crew, hearing this, asked in shock, "Is Young Master Knight still inside?"
"Hurry and save him! Inside is Damian Knight, the CEO of Knight Group!"
"If sothing happens to him, we’re all dood!"
At this mont, an employee from the Stanton Group ca running over, crying and grabbed Sumr’s sleeve, questioning, "They say you brought the children out? Where’s my son? Why are everyone’s kids out except my son?"
Sumr’s arm was injured; the woman’s tug caused a tearing pain.
Sumr endured the pain and said, "Your son... might still be inside. He got scared by the explosion and got separated from us, but my friend has already gone to find him..."
The woman didn’t listen to the latter part, hysterically shaking Sumr’s clothes.
"You owe my son! Bring my son!"
The assistant imdiately protected Sumr, loudly saying, "Auntie! Please be careful, Miss Sadie is injured!"
"I don’t care! The company is owned by them. If anything happens to my son, I won’t let you go!"
The woman glared venomously at Sumr.
Finally, the fire captain couldn’t watch any longer and called over two team mbers to take the woman away.
The assistant, distressed, looked at Sumr, holding her hand, saying, "Miss Sadie, you shouldn’t have kindly saved those children. Now that you didn’t bring out everyone, she’s blaming you—it’s completely unreasonable!"
The assistant felt it wasn’t worth it for Sumr.
"You worked so hard to bring the children out; none of them even ca to thank you, and now they’re scolding you! Is your arm injury okay?"
Sumr shook her head lightly; in her distinctively beautiful eyes, there wasn’t a hint of regret.
She didn’t look at the woman who struggled and shouted, and said expressionlessly, "I saved those children not to receive gratitude from their parents. Even if I had to choose again, I would still save them."
