Chapter 059

Seeing Lucia freeze for a long time, August turned his head, “What’s wrong?” Lucia held the phone, not knowing whether to cry or to laugh, “My phone has no signal.” Hearing that, August took his phone out and looked at the screen. Then, his eyes darkened. Sure enough, the signal was only left half a bar. They couldn’t even connect to the internet on their phones, let alone make a phone call. Right now, they were trapped in the boat, and if they didn’t think of something, the situation could get worse. “You sit here and steady the bow. I’ll go to the stern and have a check.”

August said calmly, arranging for Lucia to sit on the bow of the boat. Then he moved to the stern and used the oars to paddle the water to see what was going on below. Either a foreign object had gotten into the engine, making it inoperable, or there was something wrong with the engine itself. He knocked on the engine with the oar. After making sure there was anything foreign, he went back to the bow and restarted

the electric boat, but it didn’t respond except for the “buzz” sound. Lucia watched nervously from the sidelines and took a deep breath. And when she saw that the boat still couldn’t move, she couldn’t help but ask, “What if we’re really stuck here?” August froze and looked back, just in time to meet Lucia’s eyes, bright, but with a bit of worry. He opened his mouth and said in a slow, reassuring voice, “Don’t worry and we won’t be stuck here.” As long as he was there, he wouldn’t let anything happen to her. After August attempted to start the boat several times, it still did not move. August frowned and was sure that there should really be a problem with the engine. He turned his head and looked around. They were right at the corner behind a clump of bushes, and even if a boat came by. they would be blocked from view by the tall bush. They couldn’t see the boat over there, and the people on the boat over there couldn’t see them either. Even if they wanted to ask for help from passing boats, it would be a problem unless boats were coming around the bush to see them. Taking a closer look at the nearby situation, August inadvertently drooped his eyes and saw Lucia sitting in the boat with her two hands clasping together and her cheeks flushing. August hesitated and said in a deep voice, “Cheer up. If a boat passes this way, we can go back.” Lucia nodded and tried to stand up to look around as well. But just as she stood up, she swayed from side to side along with the boat, almost losing her balance. Suddenly, August put his one warm, strong palm on her shoulder and gently pressed her to sit down, “You sit well to stabilize the boat and I’ll deal with it.”

Listening to August’s instructions, Lucia settled down a lot and nodded seriously. She was unlucky to be trapped in the boat when she came out to take the boat to the lake, but fortunately, he was with her. Lucia took a look at the time and saw that it was time to finish the race. At this time, everyone shall have returned to the

shore.

The surrounding temperature was getting lower. Sitting in the boat, Lucia could obviously feel the chill. Her hands and feet become cold first, followed by her whole body. August stood at the stern of the boat for a long time, without seeing a boat. He looked back and saw Lucia sitting there and shivering a little. “Are you cold?” He became serious, immediately turned around, and reached out to touch her hand which was cold as ice! In the past few days, she got wet and had a fever, and after that, she fell into the water. And now she had been sitting in the boat on the lake for more than an hour, without eating any food and having no energy. If this continued, she would definitely catch a cold.

And once she was sick and her immunity decreased, she couldn’t have surgery August frowned, did not hesitate to take off his sports jacket, and was about to put it on Lucia.
