Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 551

The three of them were forced to retreat to the corner of the house. Thick smoke billowed, and it choked the three of them, sending them into coughing fits.

"Cecil, there is a skylight on the upper left corner. You and Felicia get out of here first." Lenold's weak voice sounded. He couldn't hold on any longer.

"What about you?"

"Don't you trust my skills?" He smiled and looked at Felicia.

However, she wouldn't buy what he said. He was seriously injured, he wouldn't have the strength left to climb out of this place.

Despite this...

"Cecil, climb up there. I'll tear up the sheets and pass them to you. You can send Lenold out first," Felicia said coldly. This was the only way as neither of them would leave him behind.

Cecil nodded. She understood what she meant.

Looking at the upper left window, although it was high up, her years of sports practice would help her reach it.

Lenold turned his head to look at Felicia. "You're an idiot. There's not much time left."

"When I decided to look for you, I didn't expect to be back safe and sound. It would be best if you understood my personality by now. If I don't love that person, I can ignore him completely, but I love you, and I am willing to sacrifice everything. That's what you liked about me, isn't it?" Felicia looked in Cecil's direction, her voice underlined with seriousness.

Hearing those words, he was touched. However, it was a matter of life and death. He would rather die alone than see Felicia sacrificing with him.

She was the woman whom he had loved since he was a child, and never would he expect that she would die with him right then.

Cecil finally climbed up. "Sister-in-law."

Hearing the words "sister- in- law," Felicia and Lenold couldn't describe how they felt about it.

Felicia helped to sit Lenold down as she tore the bed sheets and the covers into wide strips.

She then threw them to Cecil.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and time was running out.

Felicia tied Lenold up while saying, "We'll all meet outside. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Lenold grabbed her hand, his eyes gleaming with worry.

As a man, he should be the one to protect her; but that day, the roles had changed.

"Let's meet outside."

"Hurry up. The fire is getting near." Standing in a high place, Cecil saw that the fire was gradually flickering closer to them. Furthermore, she didn't know what items were left in the warehouse.

Should there be any explosive and highly flammable item, things could take a turn for the worse.

Cecil pulled the cloth along the wall and went down little by little. The lower it went, the more difficult it was for her to grab hold of it. Lenold's weight was far heavier than hers. When he was about to reach the end, she could no longer pull the cloth. He was stuck mid-air.

Felicia noticed the standstill. "Lenold," she shouted.

"I'm fine." He knew that Cecil couldn't pull anymore. He tried his best to push against the wall to ease her actions. When he was just about to exert his strength, the wound hurt astonishingly. He thought that he had high stamina, but the injuries were too severe. He really couldn't use his strength.

Felicia kept her eyes on Lenold's direction and asked, "Lenold, how are you..." Before she could finish her sentence, a drop of blood dripped on her face. She touched the blood on her face and knew something was wrong. She shouted, "Lenold."

Cecil heard her shout, and panic struck her. Lenold was injured and he could not hold on much longer.

All of a sudden, footsteps were coming from her left. Cecil was terrified, assuming that Diana had returned.

Before she could see who the person was, she heard an anxious voice calling out, "Cecil."

When she saw the people who came, her heart was filled with joy. "Alexander, hurry up, Lenold is down there. I can't hold on to him any longer." Her eyes were gleaming with tears. Their savior had arrived.

"Okay." He waved to the three people behind him. They caught on to his instruction and helped him.

When Cecil climbed down, Lenold was near the window. The helpers looked at each other and pulled the cloth with all their strength to drag him down.

They caught him from below. Lenold groaned as his wound was touched.

Cecil quickly walked over and checked on him.
