Laney tried her best to prevent them from getting isolated.

Fortunately, the water washed them to a sand bar in the river a couple of meters away, so they narrowly escaped death.

Laney dragged Natalie to the sand bar and scrambled to her feet.She took a deep breath and blew into Natalie’s mouth.

Moments later, Natalie spat out a mouthful of water and began coughing violently.

Her pale lips gradually regained color.

“It’s all right.Any discomfort or difficulty in breathing is absolutely normal because the water got into your lungs,” Laney said calmly as she gently patted Natalie’s back and looked around for help.It was a quiet night.

They were stuck in the middle of the river, and no one could find them until the sunlight illuminated the surroundings.

After Natalie’s coughing fits ceased, she took a deep breath and braced her trembling body.

Then, she looked at the woman beside her and examined the surroundings.

“Miss, who are you? What am I doing here? What happened!” Natalie didn’t remember anything after the truck hit her.She could only recall the blinding flashlight after which she had passed out.

Sebastian forbade Laney to reveal her true identity to Natalie, so she responded quickly, “Oh, my name is Laney Garcia. was on my way home from work.When I passed the bridge, I saw a truck crash against your car and plunge into the river.I come from a family of fishermen, so I’m a good swimmer.I jumped into the river to save you.”

The young lady had a slender physique.

Her benign face and gentle aura gave Natalie the assurance that she wouldn’t harm her…

Natalie’s heart swelled with gratitude.

The fact that she had survived a disaster brought tears to her eyes.

Natalie held Laney’s hand and sobbed uncontrollably.

“Miss Garcia, thank you for saving my life.I’m forever indebted to you.”

Natalie remembered traversing the high bridge. It was cold, and the river was flowing fast.It was brave of Laney to dive into the river to save her, ignoring the danger.

After all, she looked frail and delicate.

“You’re welcome.” Laney tried withdrawing her hand, but Natalie held her in a vice-like grip.Her skin prickled with goosebumps when she saw Natalie’s eyes gleaming with gratitude.

Laney cleared her throat and forced an awkward smile at her.

“You dove from a high bridge into this treacherous river to save me — a stranger you’ve never met before. If not for you, I would have died today.Even friends and family may think twice before offering help, but you risked your own life to save me.By the way, my name is Natalie Quinn. will properly express my gratitude once we get out of here.”

Natalie couldn’t stop thanking Laney.

The fact that the woman had saved her despite being a total stranger moved her.

No one had bothered to offer Natalie kindness, let alone save her life.She had always felt lonely and desolate in this world.

Laney’s face flushed with embarrassment.She bit her lip and looked away guiltily.

After all, she was merely doing her job and didn’t deserve Natalie’s praise and gratitude.
