Chapter 1137
"What if it rains?” Nina was still a little worried. "Didn't Holly say that there may b e landslides if it rains?"
| was caught between laughter and tears by now. "It won't happen. Didn't they check the weather forecast? It’s
not going to rain tonight."
It was only then did Nina feel slightly relieved. Afraid that | would be scared, she kept talking to me. As we
talked, she suddenly brought up Theo's name.
She curiously asked me, "Wanda, don't you think it's such a pity for you to give up on such an outstanding man
like Theo?"
| thought about it and replied to her with a
serious answer, "Of course, | do, but that's life, isn't it? There are always a lot of regrets in life."

I smiled and said no more.
Nina sighed. "Say, Elena has the looks and capability. How nice would it be if she has a more amiable character?
There really is n o perfect person in this world.”
As soon as she said that, a strike of thunder boomed in our ears.
Nina looked up at the sky and asked with a teary expression, "It won't really rain, will i t?”
When there was thunder, rain would most likely follow. | started to panic a little.
If it actually rained and water started
flowing this way, then | would most certainly drown.
I held onto a little ray of hope and said to Nina, "Check if there are dark clouds in the sky. If there aren't any,
then it won't rain anytsoon."
"There are.” Nina's voice trembled, sounding like she was about to cry. "There weren't any earlier but | can feel
raindrops already. Dazaray has been gone for too long."
I would be lying if | said that | was not afraid, but in situations like this, being afraid was no use. | had to think of
a way to save myself.
If it did rain, then drowning was still okay. What fearedmore was landslides. | would be buried alive in this
pit.
I mulled it over and looked up, saying to Nina, “Don't panic first. Go and take a look around you. See if there are
any relatively strong and thick branches."
"Okay, I'll go search right away.”
The pit was very dark. Nina was there to talk toearlier, so it was fine. However, when it suddenly quieted
down, | started to feel afraid.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn a dark and moist environment, my mind began to involuntarily cast itself back to the night I lost my son. My
body unconsciously trembled.
However, reason toldthat | must not panic at this moment, or | might actually die here. I still had many
things that | had yet to accomplish. | had yet to raise Munchkin, so | must not die yet.
"I found a slightly thicker branch, Wanda. Why don't you stand toward the side? | don’t want to hit you when |
throw it down." Nina's voice sounded from the top.
| quickly replied, "Okay, throw it down, then."
Soon, a branch ccrashing down, followed by Nina's voice, "Why do you want a branch, Wanda?"
"The soil under my feet is too soft. I'm afraid that I'll accidentally sink in. It's better to walk with a branch."
Having said that, | stuck the branch into the soil beside my feet, but as soon as | did so, my heart sank with it.
The soil was too soft. The branch did not reach the bottom a tall.

| broke out in a cold sweat. Could this be like the sand in a swamp that could cause a person to sink in?
