Chapter 571 A Dire Situation

• I was on pins and needles since I was afraid they would see eye to eye and bring me away against my will. Thus, I yelled, “Lyle, you better not try anything silly! I'm merely grateful you're around to do me a favor! There's no way I'm falling for you! I won't stop you if you're going to leave, but there's no way I'm leaving Christopher alone!”
• Lyle turned around and looked at me in the eyes. A few minutes later, he marched in my direction. I got myself a rock to defend myself just in case he tried to bring me away against my will. To my surprise, he leaned over and reached for my phone in the bag instead.
• Once he returned to Christopher's side, he handed the frail man the phone and asked, “Why don't you do everyone a favor and try getting in touch with your comrades? I'm sure it's not much of a challenge for you to send someone to rush to our rescue, isn't it?”
