Chapter 378 The Shortest-Serving Leader
Even for Isabella and Draxton, the cliff with the height of more than 4,000 meters was a bottomless pit. If they fell, they would definitely die.
Moreover, they had been bombed and suffered serious injuries.
Nonetheless, they were falling at great speed down the cliff. Suddenly, Isabella took out a bag from under her wide skirt. She didn't open the bag right away. Instead, she reached out her hand and rushed towards Draxton.
Draxton saw her moving in his direction, so he tried his best to get closer to her.
When their hands finally touched, they held each other's hands tightly.
Finally, Draxton turned around and wrapped his strong arms around her waist.
Isabella leaned in his arms and allowed the two of them to fall rapidly while opening the bag in a nimble way. With a light shake, a colorful two-person parachute suddenly emerged.
The speed of their descent dropped suddenly. The two of them leaned against each other. Although they were in a distressed situation, they could not help but laugh.
"How are you doing?" Isabella asked.
"Don't worry, I won't die." Draxton's back was seriously injured by the bomb and was bleeding.
Isabella's shoulder was also hurt. Both of them were covered in blood.
"This is your so-called self-injury ruse and beating them at their own game? We pay a heavy price for that." Isabella said angrily.
Draxton said, "We didn't get hurt for nothing."
Isabella sighed. "Forget it. This won't kill me. I might as well enjoy the beautiful view."
Draxton nodded. "Yes, enjoy the beautiful view."
They flew through the sea of clouds and kept falling. When they were approaching the ground, they were shocked because they saw a surging river below.
Isabella blinked and said angrily, "Draxton, didn't you say we only need a parachute? Why didn't you prepare a boat as well?"
Draxton replied stiffly, "Bella, even if there is a boat, it won't know where we'll land."
Isabella was speechless.
Then, the two of them fell into the river with two plops.
At first, they were still holding each other's hands tightly. But the river was fast-flowing. A violent wave swept over and broke them apart.
After the helicopter left, the people of Clan Mobius rushed into the forest to put out the fire.
Fortunately, the fire did not spread for long before it was gradually extinguished.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Some men ran to the edge of the cliff and looked down. The expressions on their faces were a little complicated.
They said in shock, "Patriarch Grey, this is the shortest-serving leader in the history of Clan Mobius. Her name is Isabella Thompson, right? We'll set up a memorial brass for her now. Our Evolution Poison is gone. What a pity."
Patriarch Grey remained silent.
Right then, Jocelyn walked over with Betty in her arms and said angrily, "Bullshit! My disciple won't die so easily!"
She had seen Isabella preparing the parachute.
They might have packed other tools too. She was confident that the two of them wouldn't die so easily.
However, she would not tell the clan about that.
She cursed and left through the secret passage with Betty.
The Clan Mobius people thought that she was consoling herself. Therefore, they turned around and went to set up the memorial brass for Isabella.
Betty was unusually quiet and obedient. She just wrapped her arms around Jocelyn's neck tightly.
It broke Jocelyn's heart when she saw that. She kept kissing Betty's little face and comforted her.
"Betty Baby, don't be afraid. Daddy and Mommy will be fine. You can feel it, right?"
If Isabella really died, the golden butterfly would also die, and Betty's pink butterfly would sense it.
Betty blinked her big eyes and said softly, "Yes, Mommy and the golden butterfly are fine."
Jocelyn heaved a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Julian, the Sullivan family, and the Beck family were overjoyed.
They had prepared a feast for celebration, toasting each other and filling the room with happy chatter. Halfway through the party, Julian left. He took out his phone and sent a message.
Far away from the Mystical Island, in Dawton City in Lucsia, the President was staring at the text on the phone screen. His eyes twinkled slightly.
Isabella slowly regained consciousness. She didn't open her eyes immediately. Instead, she was carefully feeling her surroundings. First, she seemed to be lying on a soft bed. It can thus be inferred that someone. had saved her.
The wound on her right shoulder was in pain, but she could feel that her clothes were dry, which meant that her wound had also been treated.
And lastly, she felt someone breathing in front of her.
The breath smelled unfamiliar.
Isabella slowly opened her eyes. What came into sight was a fat face that was so large that she couldn't see all the facial features clearly.
Although that face was chubby, the person had fair and delicate skin, with some baby fat too.
Seeing Isabella open her eyes, the chubby face grinned. "Wow, Miss Fairy is awake. That's great. Miss Fairy is awake! Mom, Dad, Aurora, Nathaniel..."
The chubby face moved away, and Isabella saw a fatty with a pumpkin-shaped body run out of the room quickly.
She was bewildered.
Looking around, she saw that the room she was in had a certain quaint charm about it. But it was not unusual. Most of the houses on Mystical Island were like that.
She slowly sat up from the bed and looked at the furnishings in the room. It should be a house of a prominent family. Ordinary families would not have such exquisite decorations. Suddenly, she heard loud footsteps and the big pumpkin- no, the fatty shouting in a childish voice.
In the blink of an eye, the fatty walked in with a middle-aged couple and a beautiful young woman who was less than 30 years old.
"Dad, Mom, Aurora, look, I didn't lie to you, did I? Miss Fairy has really woken up."
Isabella did not think too much earlier on. But the way the fatty spoke suddenly made her realize that he might be mentally impaired.
She looked at the other three people in silence.
The middle-aged woman and the beautiful young woman smiled and walked forward. The middle-aged woman said, "Miss, you should lie on the bed. What if your wounds burst?" She was a little plump and looked concerned.
Isabella said, "It doesn't matter. Thank you all for saving me. May I know where is..."
The beautiful young woman answered before Isabella finished her question, "This is the Hendrix family. We
are at the border where the Paradise Settlement and the slums settlement meet.
"My younger brother happened to play by the river with the servants yesterday. Fortunately, he found you. Otherwise, your wounds would be inflamed.
"May I know what is your name?"
Isabella thought to herself, "I don't think all the people know what Draxton and I look like. I can't let others. know I'm not dead. If not, this self-injury ruse will be in vain." Fortunately, the Hendrix family was at the border between the Paradise Settlement and the slums. settlement. Julian and the others should not be able to find her very soon.
She definitely could not tell the Hendrix family her real name because she did not know whose side they were on, so she replied, "My name is Ganyra Josephina, which means white butterfly."
