When Leilani got out of the living room, she felt that all the strength of her body had been drawn away, and her legs were soft and almost immovable.
Waylen was at the door. Logan had ordered all the people not to stop them. Leilani leaned forward to hug him, “Hold me.”
Waylen held her up by the waist and went all the way out.
Of course, on their way out of the presidential palace, they also heard that Rebecca was temporarily out of danger.
When they got out of the presidential palace, it’s almost evening. The sunset glow dyed the sky red, and there were gold clouds.
Looking back at the presidential palace of the towering white building, they felt it was like a cage. What happened these days was like a suffocating nightmare.
Fortunately, they came out.
Robert had already opened the car, which was followed by dozens of bodyguards’ cars. He temporarily called the bodyguards in case there would be a fight.
“Am I heavy?” Leilani was not fat herself, but there was a baby in her belly. She found that Waylen liked to hold her so much. He had never complained and had never panted for breath.
What good physical strength!
“Yes.” Waylen looked down at her and said, “I’m not afraid of weight, but I’m more afraid of you being tired.”
“I’m exhausted today.”
“I see. When we get home, take a warm bath.” Waylen put her in the car, let her lean on his body, and looked up outside the window. This was a road around the sea, and the sea slowly engulfed the setting sun. There was sparkling seawater shining like diamonds.
Originally he wanted the woman to get up to look at the scenery outside the window. But Leilani looked up from his arms and looked at him with a tired face.
“Waylen.”
“Um?”
“Why haven’t I ever heard you mention your siblings?”
Waylen reached out to help her smoothed her hair and said, “I don’t often contact them, and I’m not familiar with them.”
In his present identity and character, there was little possibility for Waylen to take the initiative to contact them, and they dare not easily contact him. Even if they contacted him, the phone was always answered by Robert.
“Well, actually, I didn’t expect Rebecca to be my cousin.”
“Does it have an impact on you? You have nothing to do with her.”
Suddenly the car hit something, and Leilani was a little carsick.
“Slow down.”
Waylen didn’t take the driver with him today, so it was Robert who was driving the car. After hearing his order, Robert stepped on the brake several times, and he rattled the parts of the brake.
“Mr. Bamford, the brakes are not working.”
Waylen immediately pulled the door, and the door was locked, “What’s the speed now?”
“120.”
“What’s wrong?” Leilani sat straight from the arms of Waylen, and she began to feel that it was not as simple as a car failure.
“The car has been remodeled. The speed was locked at 120, and the brakes failed. We cannot stop the car. But fortunately, it’s still in control.”
Leilani took a deep breath. Who has done this to the car?
“How about the fuel tank?” Waylen continued to ask.
“It’s full.”
That was to say, the car can’t wait for the automatic stop for fuel failure, which would take at least five or six hours.
The speed of the car was always at 120, and this was a road that was close to a vast sea area and open beach in the eastern part of the country. The front had no roads to the suburbs, but the only way to the downtown.
At this time, there was a large truck suddenly galloping directly in front of them.
“Mr. Bamford…” Robert was a little panicked, but he was still staring at the front and controlling the steering wheel. Even if the car didn’t collide with the truck, they would be dead because the car would hit the fence.
“Don’t panic. The person didn’t want us to die! Control the direction and drive to the sea!” If the person really wanted them to die, it would not be this kind of speed.
In the instant of the impending collision of the car, Robert quickly turned the car in the direction of the coastline.
Waylen faced Leilani with the whole body to protect her. When the car rushed into the sea, Waylen whispered in her ears, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here,”
It was at that moment that Leilani suddenly smiled at him.
The doors and windows of the car were locked, and driving into the sea could be a dead end. But as long as Waylen stayed with her, Leilani was not afraid.
At first, the car did not sink fast, but the soles of their feet were submerged gradually by the cold water.
The car was no longer under control in the water and was sinking endlessly at a terrible speed.
Salty seawater poured into their mouths and noses. Leilani opened her eyes in the water, only to see Waylen pulling out the pillow cushion of the co-driver seat.
What was he going to do?
The deeper the car sunk, the greater the pressure was. Even if the door was not locked, it’s impossible to open it. The windows could not be easily broken because of water pressure.
Waylen quickly pulled out the pillow cushion in the seat, and two long metal rods were exposed.
Leilani soon understood that he was trying to smash the window.
Robert also pulled out the small pillow cushion on his seat, so as to be able to pry open the window as quickly as possible.
It didn’t know how deep the car had sunk. The sense of asphyxiation was getting stronger and stronger.
Fortunately, the window was pried by Waylen. Robert also used the metal rod to help his boss hit the window, and the window finally started to crack.
Leilani was about to use her hands to remove the excess glass, but Waylen pulled her away.
Was he worried about her hands being cut at a time like this?
Leilani understood his intention and didn’t want to mess things up, watching Waylen and Robert open all the windows on both sides of the car.
Finally, when they got out of the car, Leilani was already unconscious because of asphyxiation.
The sun has set, leaving only dark shadows, rising tides, and waves rattling the rocks.
Around the sea where the car sunk, a man was standing on the reef with a cane. The sea breeze blew up his black windbreaker.
Behind the man stood a bodyguard in black uniform, “Mr. Clifford, the car has sunk into the sea for ten minutes.”
He looked at the watch, “Should I send someone to save them?”
The man stopped him and stared at the sea.
Because he saw three black figures on the surface of the sea, “They are safe now.” The bodyguard also saw three people swimming in the sea.
“Let’s go.’ The man’s clothes were flying in the wind.
“Mr. Clifford…”
The man ignored him and walked forward, step by step with a cane. He just wanted to announce to them in this way that he was still alive.
They had let him have a lucky escape from death under the church, and he made them experience the feeling this time. From now on, all the grudges between them were written off.
Andrew suddenly stopped his step, and he stepped on a smooth stone, half kneeling on the ground.
The bodyguard, Jamie, rushed over to help him up, and the wind blew the two men’s hair.
“Mr. Clifford…”
Andrew pushed him away, and the tablet computer on his hand fell to the ground. He bowed his head to look down at the video on the computer. He had installed a camera in the car. At the moment the vehicle fell into the sea, Waylen leaned his whole body to protect Leilani. In this dangerous situation, they could still look at each other and smile at each other.
They trusted each other and gave their lives to each other.
Andrew now knew that he has been stupid enough.
At this moment, he finally understood why he could not get into their relationship.
In the face of death, they only saw each other.
“Mr. Clifford, please listen to the doctor’s advice. You should return as soon as possible to receive medical treatment.”
“Return? I don’t know whether my grandfather is alive. Jessica is also missing. You want me to go back?” Andrew’s voice was weak in the strong wind.
These days, he was exhausted because of the matter of his grandfather and Jessica.
Jamie helped Andrew onto the RV parked on the beach, not far away. The doctor opened the door from the RV, where the syringe and medicine were ready. After Andrew got in the car, the doctor injected the dose through his arm into the body.
“How long will I live?”
“If you go on like this, you will die a year later.”
Jamie sat on the other side, clenching his fists violently. These days, Mr. Clifford’s disease was worse than before, but he refused to return to the country for treatment.
“Give me my phone.”
