Chapter 171

As soon as Dana Roosevelt heard they were still looking for someone, she quickly opened the window and shouted, "Yes! Hello! I'm still stuck in here!"

But the building was too high, and thick black smoke came out as soon as the window was opened. Dana Roosevelt almost choked to death, crackling downstairs, everything was burning.

Dana Roosevelt started to panicked.

At this moment, a black Maybach rushed into the crowd.

"This fire is so big that I don't know if it's going to die?"

"Why did it suddenly catch fire? Did someone set the fire deliberately or something?"

"Hey, comrade, you can't go in!"

When the fire fighter and policeman saw a man who was about to go in without saying a word, he was stopped.

Walker Herbert just got out of the car, his handsome face was gloomy to horror, and he just uttered two words. "Step aside."

The firefighters were obviously frightened, but they need to follow their protocol and that was safety first. That's why they still did not allow him to go inside.

"I'm sorry, but please cooperate with us!"

Walker Herbert's face sank completely. "I'll say it one last time, let me go inside!"

Dana Roosevelt was now in a critical situation. Although the fire had not yet reached her doorstep, she doesn't know how to escape from the top floor.

From what her escape class in elementary school said that one can tie the quilt and escape from the balcony. But now, with the height of the Silver Beach and her being pregnant, certainly it would not work.

Do you just wait and die? Dana Roosevelt thought to herself. She gritted her teeth, and finally decided to open the door to see the escape route.

But when she touched the doorknob, she had a bad feeling with it. She turned the door knob and tried to opening it, but it seemed to be malfunctioning. The door was broken!

Dana Roosevelt was in complete panic now. Time had passed. The temperature in the house keeps rising, and she could feel the overwhelming heat wave. The flame burned up along the window at some point, and the smell of smoke was getting stronger.

Dana Roosevelt gritted her teeth and told herself to calm down. The fire-fighting facilities at Silver Beach were complete, and the firefighters had already arrived, so she could be rescued easily. She's not going to die. Nothing's going to happen. With this in mind, she hid in the bathroom for the first time. There was water in the bathroom, and it seems to be the safest place.

The bathroom door swings open.

Almost at the same time, there was a loud sound of explosion. Dana Roosevelt was shocked. She was so scared that she almost fell to the ground, and hurriedly held on to the doorknob. She was now in a critical condition!

Outside the building.

The crowd was anxious like ants in a hot pot. At this moment, somebody suddenly shouted,

"There! The lights on the top floor are still on!"

"There are still people who haven't come out!"

"Report it to the chief, the people on the top floor are still trapped inside!"

After a word, the air seemed to stagnate for a second.

In the next few seconds, a man in a suit and leather shoes rushed over.

"Mr. Herbert! It's too dangerous here!" Someone shouted.

The appearance of a tall and handsome man suddenly made the whole night sky glow.

Walker Herbert was about to go in. Hearing what they said, his whole body became so gloomy.

The person in charge of the Silver Beach project saw him and immediately bowed his head respectfully.

"Mr. Herbert."

"The fire is too strong and dangerous. We are equipped with the most professional and high-end fire-fighting equipment. You should wait here!"

After all, if something happens to Walker Herbert, none of them could bear the responsibility.

Walker Herbert eyebrows were gloomy, and his eyes were as cold as knife, looking at the figure blocking his path, "If your wife and children were trapped inside, would you stand outside and watch?"

There was only silence.

The next second, the man simply pushed him over the guardrail, "Mr. Herbert!"

Who was Walker Herbert? If anything goes wrong with him, the entire financial circle would be in turbulent. Not to mention the identity behind him, if something goes wrong, they absolutely can't afford it.

The project leader was so frightened that he didn't dare to pull him. Finally, the fire armed police went inside with him, rushed in front of him to cover him.

After crossing the line of fire and finally reaching the top floor, the man was totally desperate to find a way to save his wife. Ignoring other people's advice, his slender and white hands slapped the door regardless of the heat.

"Dana Roosevelt, are you in there?"

Over and over again, an almost manic and violent breath gushed from him. The whole body seems to be unable to react from the elegant contrast that men have always had. This contrast, combined with the raging fire, made them at a loss and dared not approach at all.

Inside the house. Dana Roosevelt's felt a little dizzy and had difficulty breathing. Carbon monoxide was deadly. With this thought, she reacted and hid inside the bathroom.

The moment the bathroom door closed. Dana Roosevelt accidentally stepped on the water left on the ground by the fire bell, she slipped and fell on the cold floor. She lost her support, lying on the ground, raised her head, and slowly little by little she went to the bathtub.

When she retreated, her hand accidentally touched a lot of sharp ceramics, and blood flowed out. The scene was bloody and terrifying. At that time, Dana Roosevelt had only one thing in her mind, and that was her child!

"Child, baby, we can't do anything."

Even now that she's out of breath and her life was in danger, all she could think about was her child.

She really don't know, what would happen to her child. What should she do?

Dana Roosevelt hugged herself like a baby, hugging her belly. She curled her head in the bathtub, her hair broken in a rage. She closed her eyes as teardrops fell on her face. Faintly weeping, accompanied by the sound of an object hitting, drowned out the call of a man outside the door. A person's emotions collapsed a little bit when they find themselves isolated and helpless in a confined space. The fear that was a hundred times larger than the nightmare grabbed her. She couldn't hear what Walker Herbert was saying, but Walker Herbert heard her words clearly.

Through the exhaust fan, her fragile fear was as clear as his ears. Piercing into the softest part of his heart like a thorn, and then spreading extremely deep in distress.

"Dana Roosevelt, don't be afraid, just wait for another minute. No, five seconds!"

"Mr. Herbert!" When everyone realized what he wanted to do, they all shouted!

A loud sound came off. Five seconds later, the door was finally opened. The monstrous fire jumped out of the last line of defense in an instant. The raging flames were unstoppable. The heat wave forced everyone to step back, only one man did the opposite firmly and quickly!

"Mr. Herbert! No!"

But when they opened their eyes, that noble figure had already rushed into the fire. He was unwilling to hesitate, firm and steady, and deep in love.

After Walker Herbert entered the door, he went straight to the bathroom. The moment the door was opened, he saw a blushing pool of blood all over the floor. His heart shook fiercely.

"Dana Roosevelt..." His eyes fell to the bathtub, and the thin woman inside had passed out. Her hair was messy, cold and pale. The palm of her hand was wounded and bleeding, and her lips were bleeding as well.

Walker Herbert felt so distressed. He walked straight over, hugged her tightly in his arms.

He reached out to wipe the tears and blood from her face, his lips softly kissed her hair and said in a coarse voice, "It is okay, Dana Roosevelt, don't be afraid, I am here."

Uptown, in another villa,

It was known earlier that Walker Herbert had countless real estate properties in this city. Silver Beach was one of the middle-level residences but with relatively convenient transportation.

Now that Silver Beach was caught on fire they would definitely change their residence. For now, Walker Herbert chose a single-family villa, arranged for servants to work, and hired a doctor for Dana Roosevelt.

Dana Roosevelt was still unconscious.

Walker Herbert was also injured, even more severe than Dana Roosevelt, but he woke up earlier than she did.

Almost as soon as he woke up, he went to her room. The attending doctor said she was fine, but she had some psychological problems and refused to wake up.

He waited for a while before finally returning to his bedroom at the doctor's request.

Gerard Havard also came over to visit this time.

Young Master Havard was dressed in white and looks handsome like a walking power plant. In Walker Herbert's original post-modernist house, it was even more dazzling.

"I've heard moths fight fires but I've never seen moths fight fires, Walker Herbert, do you want to catch fire?"

He said three "fires" in one sentence, but the last "fire" obviously had a different meaning from the previous two.

Indeed, the business news was overwhelming. The most powerful President Walker Herbert, late at night, had an inexplicable wife and child, broke into the flames in order to save lives. He don't know if this kind of report is too romantic or too frightening.

The man sat on the bed, his eyes indifferent, "How will you explain it to your parents?" Even if Gerard Havard tried his best, the news was pressed quickly, but it was inevitable that it would still leak.

Walker Herbert's injuries were mostly hidden in the body, so his face was still flawless.

Gerard Havard looked at his very calm face and said flatly, "I can only say that it is news bullshit. You are not in Progress City at all, and you are on a business trip. So you have these few days. Don't show up."

"However, she mentioned that she wanted to see Dana Roosevelt."

"What will you say?"

"What can I say," Gerard Havard raised his eyebrows, "I'll say she fainted and her whereabouts are unknown. Isn't it just what she wants?"

"What about the firefighting?" Walker Herbert asked again.

Gerard Havard said, "Didn't you find someone from the military originally for military training? Just yesterday your assistant was also having dinner with their top leader. The internal news was quickly suppressed..."

As Gerard Havard said, he knew that Walker Herbert's character was not revealing. So he arranged it for him meticulously.

It's just that Gerard Havard suddenly noticed something after speaking, and shouted, "I am telling you Walker Herbert, you asked so much, why don't you take care about yourself? Are you still the business mole I know!"
