Elizabeth had no time to get the spare keys. She and Jane smashed the door open together with a tool.
The moment she opened the door and entered the kitchen, she was taken aback.
Was this... still the luxuriously decorated kitchen?
Moreover... The man who was lying on the ground with a black face, messy hair, and greasy clothes was really her handsome and proud husband?
But it was not the time to talk about these. Within a second, she came to sense and rushed to James who was lying prostrate.
"How are you?"
Jane was also panicked, "Young master, are you alright?"
James gritted his teeth and could not care about how awkward he was at this time. Enduring the pain, he reached out his hands with difficulty and pointed at the big flame, saying weakly, "Hurry up... Put out the fire..."
"Okay!" Jane nodded immediately. She tried to avoid the broken pieces of bowls and plates under her feet and rushed to the range. Then she picked up the lid, risked her life to cover the pot, and then turned off the fire.
Elizabeth felt both distressed and panicked. Holding James's head, she said, "Hurry up and get up. The ground is covered with water and pieces. You can't lie here like this. Let's go out first."
"Young master, young madam! The fire is so big that we can't put it out!" Jane shouted in horror, "Oh! It's coming out! The fire comes out of the lid! Will our kitchen explode?"
James closed his eyes and didn't say anything. He just lay there with a stiff body and didn't get up. He wanted to lie down and die in the kitchen.
The flame was so big, and how could it be put out by a pot cover? The smoke became even thicker and the whole kitchen was instantly filled with smoke.
"Ahem... Get up, James!" Elizabeth was so anxious, "Let's go out quickly!"
James gritted his teeth silently. He only felt that he had lost all his face. Suppressing the shame in his heart, he said pitifully, "I... can't move... Ahem..." In fact, he was not pretentious but really couldn't move.
He had smashed the bowls and plates, but he didn't pick up the pieces. He ran away in a hurry just now and didn't pay attention to the water under his feet, so he fell to the ground so awkwardly!
It was all his fault! Why did he grow so tall? He fell really badly!
Her head hurt a lot, and it seemed that he had a swelling on his head. His back seemed to be hurt by the pieces and he felt very painful. Besides, he had a burning pain in his arm because it was burnt by the hot oil. The most important thing was that there seemed to be a few pieces in his butt crack... Jane rushed back hastily and said, "Young master, get up quickly. The kitchen is going to be burnt. We can't stay here any longer!"
James couldn't feel more ashamed.
"That's right!" Elizabeth looked at Jane, "He seems to be seriously injured. Come and help me. Let's carry him out first."
James broke out in a sweat on his forehead. He raised his trembling hand and covered his guilty face.
"Okay!" Jane nodded, "Young madam, you raise his head, and I'll carry his feet!"
"No problem!"
When they walked to the door, James, who had not completely lost his mind, couldn't care about his self- respect anymore and said weakly, "Call the fire brigade! Otherwise..." Otherwise, the whole house would be burnt.
Although it took them a lot of effort, they finally carried James, who was badly injured, to the sofa.
However, as soon as James touched the sofa, he immediately screamed, "Ah!"
Elizabeth comforted him at a loss, "Don't worry. I'll turn you over now." After that, she said to Jane anxiously, "Call the fire brigade and let them come here as soon as possible!"
They didn't dare to go into the kitchen anymore. They were all anxious and uneasy, hoping that the fire could get smaller.
While waiting for the firemen, Jane clenched her fists and paced back and forth in the living room, looking in the direction of the kitchen from time to time. She hoped that the firemen could arrive soon. Otherwise... the house would be burnt and she couldn't work here anymore.
