A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

"It's moving!"

"It's moving!"

"Mr. Hale, look! That giant stone is being pushed!"

"As long as both boulders obstruct the dam, the engineering team can begin

fortifying it! All the gear onshore is already in place and prepared!"

Ethan's assistant and the others excitedly shouted in his ear.

Ethan felt just as exhilarated-and even more anxious!

"We did it!"

"We actually did it!"

"With the dam repaired, we've contained the disaster!"

Cheers erupted from the crowd on the shore as they celebrated the success.
