Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 844

Things were looking grim!

Galen had already been sedated when he took that nasty fall...

Gilbert cursed under his breath. He was injured himself; there was no telling if Galen had escaped unscathed.

He could wait here for Nolan and the others to find them, but could Galen afford to wait?

No, they couldn't just sit around and wait to die!

"Come on! Get up!"

Acting decisively, Gilbert took a deep breath, grabbed Galen by the arm, and somehow got him on his feet.

What now?

Gilbert flicked his lighter to life, scanning their surroundings.

It seemed endless ahead, with a breeze blowing towards them... He had a hunch they were in some kind of tunnel with an exit at the other end.

There was no going back the way they came with Galen in tow, so forward was the only option.

Before leaving, Gilbert took off his jacket and left it where he'd fallen.

If Nolan and the others came looking, the jacket would be a clue that he'd been there...

Then, he hoisted Galen onto his back.
