The property manager was wholly overwhelmed by anxiety. He was very clear about the fact that the resident of the top floor was a big shot.

However, there was such an unexpected situation at the critical moment of rescue.

The manager wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and nervously watched the thick smoke billowing from the top floor.

Sebastian and Natalie were blocked into a corner of the rooftop. The surrounding area was as hot as the surface of the sun, and the heat was almost unbearable.

The floor under their feet was so hot that they could hardly stand.

Natalie was sweating profusely.

Her face was red and her hair had curled from the heat, Sebastian observed the rooftop calmly.

He couldn’t just sit still and wait to be burnt to death. He had already called for the firemen, and there should have been many people calling the police outside.

Why hadn’t the firefighters arrived yet? The wet blanket and wet towel they prepared in a hurry just now had already become bone dry from the sheer heat.

Natalie covered her mouth with the towel but she couldn’t help coughing and choking from the noxious gases of the fire.

“Sebastian, we’d better find a way to get out of here.This fire is going to eat us up if we don’t act fast.”

Natalie stared at the fire in the staircase leading to the rooftop.

It seemed to be impossible for them to go downstairs via that route.

Now they were truly in a predicament, Their wet clothes had also been dried out by the heat from the flames.

Even though the rooftop was an open space, the temperature and size of the flames was just too great.

The water in their bodies would evaporate quickly Sebastian walked to the edge of the rooftop and looked down”! By this time, the fire had already burned the rooftop from the staircase to where they stood.

Natalie felt the heat increasing exponentially.Her mouth was dry, and her hands and feet were weak. She felt dizzy because of the dehydration from such close proximity with the flames.

The rooftop wasn’t that big.It was only a few dozen square meters wide.

The potted plants on the roof had become withered because of the heat.
