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!

One boulder alone wouldn't suffice; they needed both to seal the breach so

"Let's go!"

Overcome with emotion, he pushed forward with every ounce of strength, even though it felt like his body might tear apart. Around his neck, the Heart of the Sun began to glow faintly beneath the

Beneath the water, Emmanuel and Santiago exchanged a glance. Both of them were utterly exhausted, pushed to their limits, yet they smiled at each

other.

"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.
