Chapter 66
Just then, at the foot of Beaconhead Mountain, Oneida was sitting alone in the middle of a flat ground,
Indeed, she was not injured and seemed to be fine.
The only problem was that she did not have a phone or any other communication tools with her.
Therefore, she could not contact anyone.
Just then, when the car had fallen off the cliff, she had no choice but to break the window…
She then escaped from the car and jumped there.
However, to her surprise, she was surrounded by a circular swamp.
The only location that was safe was the flat ground in the middle, and it was surrounded by seemingly endless swamps.
If she ever stepped on it, she would endlessly sink and die without a proper burial.
The surrounding was rather empty, and there were no trees or rocks around her to grasp on.
Hence, there was no way for her to leave.
And right then, the sky had become completely dark.
In the pitch–black night sky, the bright stars were visible.
However, Oneida was not in the mood to enjoy such beautiful scenery.
All she could do then was wait.
She knew that someone would come to save her.
The people on Beaconhead Mountain might have called the police, and Simon might come over as soon as he got the news. And perhaps
Jackson…
Upon thinking of Jackson, Oneida felt a trace of uncertainty.
“Would he be worried about me? Would he look for me?” she wondered.
Oneida had never
er expected that she would be so insecure one day.
In the forest not far away, there was a faint howl of beasts echoing.
It was heard particularly clearly in the empty surroundings.
All of a sudden, there was a rotating sound of a helicopter propeller.
The sound was getting closer, and it eventually got close enough that it sounded as if it was just above her head.
“Mrs. Banel” The door of the helicopter was opened. Victor shouted at Oneida as he saw her in the middle of the flat ground.
Oneida raised her head and looked up. She could not help but smile when she saw Victor’s face.

She was pleased–not because she was abou
At least, Jackson cared about her.
about to be rescued, but because Jackson had actually sent someone to save her.
Oneida was picked up by helicopter. Victor looked at her in surprise. “Mrs. Bane, are you all right?”
She was already fortunate to have been able to survive after falling off the cliff while racing. However, there was no trace of injuries at all on
Oncida.
Oneida smiled and just answered faintly, “Maybe it’s just a fluke.”
The helicopter roared away from Beaconhead Mountain.
After they had left, Matthias stumbled to find the place where Oneida had landed.
Looking at the swamp in front of him, he stopped in his tracks.
His white shirt was completely drenched with sweat, and his feet were stained with dirty mud.
Tired, he panted. Looking at the empty forest, his face flashed with slight loneliness.
In Garrison Mansion, Oneida followed Victor into the mansion.
Unexpectedly, Jackson was waiting for her in the hall.
Before they knew it, Victor had left, leaving only the two of them in the hall.
sat in the wheelchair, glancing at Oneida with a dull expression.
Upon seeing that she was unhurt, his eyes finally relaxed slightly.
Even so, he questioned with concern, “Are you hurt?”
Oneida wanted to say no, but she decided to keep her mouth shut.
How could she say no?
“Yes…” Oneida briefly answered him.
Upon hearing what she had said, Jackson frowned. “Where did you get hurt?”
Oneida stepped forward and showed him a blood mark on the back of her hand. “Here.”
It was indeed a small wound for Oneida.
She was not a hypocritical person.
However, that was a good opportunity for Jackson to feel sorry for her.
