Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Novel

Chapter 767 But still, he couldn't recall ever seeing this boy before. He didn't look any different from the privileged kids the principal had seen. Just how powerful was his background to mobilize this many people? The thought made the principal increasingly curious. But no one gave him much time to wonder. Every second mattered right now-they couldn't afford to waste time on things like that. They were still in a race against death, fighting to save as many students as possible. No one responded to the principal's questions.

Someone even pushed his outstretched hand aside, clearly finding him in the way. The principal felt a bit hurt and wronged. Still, he wasn't foolish enough to voice it. He knew better-everyone was fired up, and if he spoke now, he'd only draw their ire. So, he kept quiet, blending into the background, occasionally helping move a few bricks from the rubble. In that moment, the principal had never been so clear on where he stood. For once, he truly understood his place. Lucas listened to what the others were saying and finally agreed. He didn't accept help right away.

Only with the chance to live could she have the energy and time to do more. Not like now-lying there lifelessly, waiting helplessly for someone else to save her. That feeling of powerlessness was unbearable. She never wanted to go through this again. Later, Lucas spotted his family's rescue team. He recognized the emblem on their gear instantly. That was the Carter family's symbol. Chapter 788 Seeing Lucas' pale face, the team hurried over, ready to call out to him as "Mr. Carter." But with a quick raise of his hand, Lucas stopped them.

+25 BONUS With so many eyes around, if these clueless men shouted that title, his identity would be completely exposed. He wasn't ready for that yet. At the very least, not until Aurora was safe and well. Now was not the time for unclear truths or attention. After learning Aurora's exact location, Grace grew even more anxious. What condition was her daughter in now? From the way that boy looked, she had to believe her daughter was still okay, right? She kept repeating that hope to herself, again and again.

If Arnold hadn't been holding her back, she might've rushed down herself to pull Aurora out. From her place on the rubble, Aurora saw everything. She could tell the concern on Grace's face didn't look fake. Today's Bonus Offer
