Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

At the mention of this, Madeline and Jeremy looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

"Actually, we nearly drowned." Madeline sighed with a smile and then recalled the scene.

At the time, the water level was slowly rising, and only when the water level reached below her waist did Madeline think of a way to save herself. "Jeremy, do you still have the strength? I should be able to reach the edge of the pool if I stand on your shoulders."

Jeremy seemed to realize this too, "I can do it, Linnie."

He said firmly and slowly squatted in front of Madeline. Since their clothes were getting wet, Madeline felt that her weight had increased a lot. Moreover, Jeremy had been in the water for two days, so she was worried that his legs would not be able to support her weight.

Sure enough, as soon as she crawled on his back, she felt Jeremy's legs buckled out of exhaustion.

She stopped moving immediately and looked at him worriedly. "Jeremy, are your legs very weak now?"

Jeremy did not hide it. He nodded; his face was rather solemn.

"Linnie, don't think about it so much. We don't have a choice now. Don't worry, I can bear it."

Madeline knew Jeremy could bear it, but she could not.

"Jeremy..."

"Linnie, come up quickly, don't think anymore. If you keep thinking about it, we will die here."

Upon hearing what Jeremy said, Madeline no longer dared to hesitate.

After getting up onto Jeremy's back, Madeline moved upward with all she had. With the strength of Jeremy's arms, Madeline finally stood on Jeremy's shoulder.

As soon as he stood up, Jeremy's legs bucked again from the numbness.

However, he did not let himself fall. He stood firmly and moved to the side of the pool slowly while holding Madeline's hands.

Madeline reached out immediately, and she was just tall enough to touch the edge of the pool.

Jeremy was actually a little weak in his legs, but when he thought about his children and the love of his life on his back, he forced himself to stand up straight and pushed Madeline up with all his strength. Madeline also knew that Jeremy was struggling, but she could no longer be indecisive at this time.

She struggled upward and then her hands finally grabbed the edge of the pool.

"Jeremy, I'm almost there."

"Linnie, put your feet on my shoulders and jump with all your might," said Jeremy.

Madeline put her foot on Jeremy's shoulder but hesitated again. She was worried that she would use too much force, causing Jeremy to fall from his already weakened legs.

However, amidst her worry and hesitation, Jeremy quickly and decisively grabbed Madeline's foot and pushed her up.

Due to this external force, Madeline was instantly pushed up.

Immediately after, Madeline heard a splash. She immediately looked back and saw that Jeremy had fallen into the water. "Jeremy! " Madeline hurriedly stretched her hand to Jeremy, but no matter how far she reached out, she could not reach him. Madeline quickly got up, ran to the corner of the pool, and lowered the folding stairs.

However, she found that the stairs had been destroyed halfway through.

Carter must have done this.

Madeline was extremely anxious when she saw more and more water fill the pool.

She looked around and saw that there was only a single chair. As such, she pulled the chair over without even thinking about it. "Jeremy, I'll throw the chair down for you to step on. Then, I'll pull you up!
