Chapter 552

? ? ? ? ?

Once Raegan was out of the room, she couldn't help but look back at the massive black dust storm hovering over her.

This huge cloud of dust swallowed everything, making it difficult to see even a short distance ahead.

The air was thick with dust from the ground, suffocating her. Without his dust mask, breathing it in for too long could have been fatal.

She clutched her phone tightly and ran after the two men in front of her.

Luckily, Raegan had put on a long shirt and pants over her pajamas, so she didn't look too out of place as she ran.

He had not gone far when he heard the soft cry of a child. It was very weak, almost drowned out by the surrounding chaos.

But since becoming a mother, Raegan had become incredibly sensitive to the sound of children crying. He stopped and realized that the crying was coming from a distant building.

That building… Raegan's face fell in shame. There lived a little boy, who had stayed with his grandmother while his parents were away on work. The boy's grandmother had trouble moving, so escape seemed unlikely.

The threat of a mudslide was approaching from behind.

Raegan thought of her own daughter, Janey, and only hesitated for a moment.

But the child's soft cry touched his heart.

Determined, she tapped one of the guards on the shoulder and shouted, "Go ahead without me!" She knew she couldn't ask anyone to risk their life saving others with her.

After speaking, he ran towards the ruined house.

The two guards didn't think twice and followed her. They acted quickly, opening the door before Raegan could even take a step.

Inside the boy's house, darkness enveloped everything, but the sound of his crying was unmistakable and clearer.

One of the guards turned on the lights, revealing the boy's grandmother lying on the ground unconscious. Next to her, a small boy, about four or five years old, was crying, hugging her.

Recognizing Raegan as a kind-hearted figure, almost like an angel to him at that moment, the boy pleaded between sobs: "Please... Help my grandmother..."

Raegan didn't waste a moment. He gestured for the guards to take the boy's grandmother out first.

Then, he reached out to pick up the child.

As the guards rushed the grandmother away, Raegan picked up the boy and realized his feet were caught in something.

Looking closer, he saw that a rope was tangled around his feet. He took out a self-defense knife and began to saw the rope with determination.

Meanwhile, an ominous noise grew louder and louder.

The boy trembled, expressing his fear: "I'm so afraid..." He was worried that Raegan might leave him behind. He hadn't seen his parents for years. The idea of ​​dying scared him...

Raegan sped up and comforted him: “Don't worry. I am here with you.

Finally they cut the rope.

Raegan let out a sigh of relief and stood up, hugging the boy.

Suddenly, a powerful force hit her.

The explosion threw her against the wall, but she managed to stay upright. He realized that the landslide was right in front of them. Heading towards him would be a bad idea. They would be buried in the blink of an eye.

Raegan made up her mind quickly and put all her effort into running to the side, taking the child with her.

Once they had covered some ground, he saw how big the slide was. The recent rains had loosened the soil, making it even more dangerous. No matter where they decided to go, the mounds of dirt threatened to engulf them.

The boy was scared to death. Clinging to Raegan, he cried non-stop: "I'm so scared..."

Raegan rubbed her back, trying to sound reassuring. «Stop crying. Your crying makes it difficult for me to think.

The boy froze and quickly stopped crying, without making a sound.
