18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 180

Chapter 180

Jasper had saved many people in his time, but it never seemed to end well for him.

Stella handed Jasper some pills, "You get him hydrated and medicated, I'll go get Rosie and Cooper."

Jasper took the pills, and took a deep breath, "Stella, thank you."

Stella waved it off, "These are your hoarded meds. Don't thank me."

By the time she'd brought Rosie back, Jasper had already given him water and medicine, and was cleaning his wounds. They pulled out two cots and a lamp from the Arcadia, and together they managed to lift him onto the bed. Noticing his seriously scraped thigh, Stella administered anesthetic and began cleaning and stitching the wound with medical supplies. Judging from the wound, it seemed to have been caused by a sharp object.

Stella gave him a tetanus shot. That's one yacht gone for her.

After treating him, she also gave him a fever reducer.

Rosie woke up at some point, sitting on the bed, dazed and confused, and rubbing her eyes, "Japper, Stella."

Jasper stroked her head gently, "Rosie, everything is fine now."

Rosie clung to him and anxiously asked, "Why am I here?"

"There was a tsunami, and you got knocked out by the boom. But the waves have receded."

Rosie was still confused, her consciousness drifting.

Jasper handed her a plate of warm food, "Hungry? Eat something."

Rosie obediently started eating, sipping on some apple juice as well.

She noticed the stranger but asked no questions, continuing to eat and sneakily giving a piece of rib to the dog.

A tsunami would undoubtedly cause countless deaths and injuries, and the high temperature could easily trigger an epidemic. There was no more point in staying at the beach, as it was unknown when another tsunami might hit.

In her previous life, Stella had never heard of this tsunami, and Jasper probably didn't know about it either, otherwise, they wouldn't have come here. If they hadn't been prepared, they might've been done for.

Stella spoke up, "Shall we go back to Griffith?"
