Chapter 879 Samuel Was Finally Saved
As long as they could rescue the child, their suffering this time wouldn’t be in vain. With the help of the hydraulic jack, the massive boulder pressing on Joe and Charlotte was quickly lifted, creating enough space for them to crawl out of the crevice. They narrowly escaped the danger. After Joe and Charlotte emerged, the team leader purposefully leaned in to take a look and couldn’t help but marvel. “The gaps between these two boulders were just right. If they were even ten centimeters shorter, Mr. Smith might have been seriously injured.” The team leader pointed out the two crevices and explained them to Charlotte and Joe. Enter title… Seeing this scene, Charlotte took a sharp breath. She couldn’t help but imagine the extent of Joe’s injuries if the dimensions hadn’t been just right.
Thinking about it, she instinctively held Joe’s hand tightly. Sensing her unease, Joe squeezed her hand and gave her a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, I’m perfectly fine, aren’t I?” Charlotte looked deeply into his eyes and nodded firmly. After tending to their minor cuts and scrapes, Charlotte and Joe approached the crevice. Two experts from the research station had already descended, carefully securing the rope around Samuel. They signaled to the people above to pull him up. However, due to Samuel being wedged tightly in the crevice, they attempted
several times without success. On the sidelines, Harper and Noah’s eyes were fixed on the rope. They knew it was their son’s only hope and didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, fearing that their breath might also affect the rescue team. Seeing this, Charlotte couldn’t help but grip Joe’s hand nervously. Joe gently put his arm around her shoulder. “Don’t worry, he’ll be fine.” After some consideration, the two people below carefully chiseled out two hollow spaces in front and behind Samuel, and then they signaled the people above to try again. With a strong pull from above, the already fragile hollow spaces shattered completely, and Samuel’s body was finally slowly pulled up. Everyone present let out a sigh of relief. Harper and Noah couldn’t wait any longer, rushing forward to look at Samuel’s pale face, yet still hesitating to get too close. The doctor accompanying the expedition took the lead, carefully examining Samuel’s body. He furrowed his brows slightly and said, “He must have hit a glacier protrusion during the fall, with multiple fractures on his body, and he probably suffered a mild concussion to the forehead.” Although he had endured some hardships, at least he had his life, which was much better than not making it out alive. Harper and Noah’s hearts finally relaxed. They exchanged glances and then approached Charlotte and Joe, kneeling down with a thud. “What are you doing?” Charlotte didn’t expect them to make such a move suddenly. She frowned and looked at them, quickly avoiding them. Harper wiped away her tears and said, “Thanks to all of you. If it weren’t for you…” Without Charlotte and Joe, they wouldn’t have known how to find Samuel.
Spending hours in this freezing wilderness… She couldn’t even bear to think about it. As she thought about this, Harper’s expression grew even more solemn. She looked at Charlotte and Joe sincerely and said, “Although I know there’s a big gap between us and you, if one day you need our help, we won’t hesitate to offer it.”
