Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 84

“Hello, this is the medical station of District 3. How can I help you?”

“Hello? Can you hear me?”

“Hello?”

Without any response from the other side, the woman hung up the phone.

Claudia sighed and looked at Ben. He was badly injured, with bleeding cuts in his arm and abdomen…

What could she do?

Claudia tried her best to press his wounds with a cloth and stop the bleeding and then searched for a medic kit in the room.

But she couldn’t find one!

She ran out of the house, trying to see something helpful outside. But there was nothing useful to her in the dark, desolate wasteland.

How could she do?

She turned around worriedly and looked at Ben who was lying on the ground. His face looked pale due to the bleeding.

If she couldn’t find the way, he would die in here!

Claudia really hated that she was dumb right now. If she could say something, she could save Ben’s life easily. But…

After blaming herself for a while, she checked his wounds and found the bleeding was stopped, but he was still in a coma due to the alcohol and hurts.

The cut in his arm was deep, and the wound in his head needed stitches.

Sitting and waiting couldn’t save Ben’s life. She needed to seek help outside.

Time to move now!

After she made sure Ben was all right temporarily, she walked out of the house hurriedly. It was hard to find the way in the night, especially in a strange place.

The sky was heavy and cloudy. She could even hear a clap of thunder occasionally.

But she had no time to care about the weather and only focused on finding the road that brought them here. Suddenly, a fierce wind was blowing the trees, and the rain was coming down from the sky.

Soon, her clothes were drenched.

It made her feel so cold.

The temperature in Paris was much lower than that at home.

Her thin clothes couldn’t keep her warm anymore, and the muddy road was much difficult for her to walk so that she had to take off her high heels and step on the ground in bare feet.

The road was shiny with puddles. Sometimes she stepped into it and got scratched by the rocks in it, causing a surge of pain to her.

Walking along the road for a while, her feet were full of wounds and caused pain every time she made a step.

Claudia was tolerating. She didn’t dare to stop because she didn’t how much time would it take to find a town.

In the pitch dark night where the gale and the heavy rain was raging, she was walking on the road alone.

She was worried, but not panicked. She only had one idea in her mind: to find someone and save Ben. She must save him.

Soon, the rain was pouring heavier, and she was still struggling to move on with all her clothes drenched.

Finally, she found it and walked into a town. But it was late at night now, so she couldn’t find any passenger or taxi on the road. It took her a while to find a pharmacy that opened around the clock.

Claudia saw the hope and ran into the store.

She opened the door and the assistant looked at her surprisingly.

He walked out of the counter and stepped close to her, “What’s the problem, miss? Are you hurt? Can I do something for you?”

Claudia put her arm on his shoulder and kept gasping.

She was exhausted.

But before she could get enough rest, she started to say in sign language.

“Someone was badly hurt. Please call the police and ambulance for me…”

But the assistant didn’t do anything but look at her in puzzlement.
