Candy and Quinn, who had come with the police, were sweating profusely.

What Maya was saying now probably wasn't a lie. If they couldn't find Chloe soon, they might really only find a corpse.

Quinn looked up and saw thick smoke rising not far away.

"Over there!" He shouted.

The police also noticed it and split into two groups.

One group took Maya away, while the other continued searching for Chloe and Michael.

The cabin wasn't large, and as the fire grew, it began to shake.

Michael finally managed to pull Chloe's handcuffs off the radiator.

He looked at Chloe with joy. "Chloe, I did it!"

Chloe's throat tightened as she saw his face covered in sweat and soot from exhaustion, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart. Michael didn't delay any longer, pulling Chloe to leave the cabin.

But Chloe's leg had been hit by a falling beam earlier, and she hadn't dared to make a sound for fear of affecting Michael.

Now, any slight movement caused her intense pain, making it hard to breathe.

The smoke grew thicker, and they were both starting to struggle for air.
