For a brief moment, Brandon thought he would die there. He had seen his life flash before his eyes.

Fortunately, he was nowhere near the origin of the fire, so he had time to orient himself.

After looking around, he found a back door and was able to escape. He threw his arms around Natalie

and hugged her tight, burying his face in her hair, inhaling her scent.

When Brandon looked at her again, his eyes shone like stars.

“I don’t know either. Anyway, the important thing is you’re fine.” In fact, even he himself was unable to

answer this question. Why did he rush back into the fire?

As soon as Brandon found out that the fire had started in the same area where Natalie was, he feared

for her life. At that moment, he wasn’t thinking. It was as if his body had a mind of its own. Before he

knew what was happening, he was already running to the place where he and Natalie parted ways. He

had no idea why his body was reacting that way. It was as if sheer instinct dictated that he had to

protect Natalie from harm.

“Help me up.” Taking a deep breath, Brandon put his arm around Natalie’s shoulder and prepared to

stand.

Natalie helped him up gently, wiping her tears. She asked, “Why didn’t you answer the phone? I was so

anxious that I almost rushed back to the fire to look for you.”

Brandon pulled a charred phone out of his pocket. There was a big hole in its screen. “My phone

burned in the fire, so I didn’t even get your call. I couldn’t find you anywhere, and the fire was still

spreading, so I had no choice but to try first.”

Brandon reached up and pinched Natalie’s cheek with love. The latter could not help but pout like an

upset child.

Only then did he regret the up and down look.

“Are you hurt somewhere?”

“No, I am ok. I ran away as soon as I saw the fire.” Still pouting, Natalie couldn’t avoid looking away.

This unexpected flirtatious behavior of

Brandon made her blush.

“Intelligent.” With a smile pulling the corners of his mouth, Brandon let her go. Seeing that Natalie was

safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. “I thought you were close to the point of origin. How

did you manage to escape?”

Natalie looked away guiltily. She couldn’t tell Brandon that she had been prepared in case of any

emergency.

“The fire was not too serious at that time. I covered myself with my coat and ran away.” She answered

perfunctorily.

Brandon nodded and he fixed his shirt.

Only then did he realize he was covered with cold sweat. Brandon felt strange. He had not been with

Natalie for so long, but he had risked his own life and ran to a burning establishment for her. Why was

he so worried about this woman?

Natalie looked at Brandon silently. He lowered his head and he didn’t say anything. She didn’t know

what was on his mind. But he had rushed into the fire to save her. Obviously, he cared about her.

Natalie was secretly delighted. It was like a rainbow after a storm. Finally, her efforts paid off! But she

still didn’t know why Brandon carried her like a stranger in the first place.

Biting her lower lip, Natalie began to say cautiously, “Brandon, there’s something I want to ask you…”

Brandon looked at her expectantly, hoping that she would talk to him. Just as Natalie opened her

mouth, a loud cracking sound came from above his head. Natalie looked up and saw that the flames

had climbed on the roof of the haunted house. The tip of a tower on the roof leaned precariously to one

side, about to fall.
