Olivia had been running in the forest. She grew more uneasy the closer she got to the snake pit.
A healthy man would have trouble getting out of a place like that, let alone a blind man like Ethan.
If he fell into the pit, he would die of a thousand snake bites.
That was an image too horrifying for her to imagine.
A chilling breeze blew toward her, carrying the rotting smell from the snake pit. Olivia shivered uncontrollably.
She was like a hunter whose sole purpose was to push ahead. She couldn't hear anything else. The howling winds made her panic.
She fell to the ground due to her anxiety. Cyril quickly helped her up.
"Are you okay?"
He noticed that she was shivering terribly.
"Quick! The snake pit is just ahead!"
Olivia got up while ignoring the pain in her knee and started to run recklessly toward the snake pit.
At that moment, she couldn't feel any pain. There was only one thought in her head: to save Ethan. She had to save him. He had to live.
As she exhausted her strength getting to the snake pit, all she saw was Ethan jumping into the snake pit resolutely.
Olivia could hear her own voice crying out for help in the snake pit. So, that was the reason Ethan was running.
That was why he jumped into the pit.
She finally understood, but it was too late.
"No!" Olivia yelled, but she was too late to do anything. She could only watch as Ethan disappeared into the pit.
He was blind, not dumb. He had to have sensed what was before him, but he still jumped. He didn't even think about the consequences.
Olivia completely lost her cool. She wanted to jump in after him.
Colin grabbed her just in time and held on to her with all his might.
He whispered coldly in her ear, "It's too late. It's all over now."
