Pampered by My Secret Husband-Chapter 509 - 512: Let me take one last look at him...

Sophie Sullivan clenched her fists and hammered at the tiger on top of her. "You bastard, get off of me!"

The tiger firmly pinned her down, motionless. It wouldn’t let it go, nor allow her to enter the quicksand.

Sophie Sullivan clenched her fist, annoyed. "If you can understand me, why not get out of the way? Thomas Shannon is about to die, let me have one last look at him..."

RUMBLE—

At that moment, the roar of helicopter propellers resonated through the sky.

Sophie Sullivan was stunned. She looked up to see several helicopters hovering in the air.

After her initial shock, she was overcome with ecstatic joy and waved her hands frantically. "Over here! Thomas Shannon is here!"

The helicopter cabin doors opened, and ropes were thrown down.

Men in black expertly slid down the ropes. One of them rushed over. "Young Master, how are you?!"

Anxious voices rang out as they began the rescue.

Sophie Sullivan finally let her tense nerves relax, hoping Thomas Shannon was okay... 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Maniac, how are you?" a man in black asked. Seeing a fierce tiger pressing down on her, he feared she had been killed by it and pulled out his gun, ready to shoot the tiger.

Sophie Sullivan shouted, "Don’t shoot! Don’t kill it; it won’t hurt me. Let it go."

As if sensing the danger, the tiger turned its head, looked around, and finally leaped off Sophie Sullivan, bolting through the crowd.

The man in black watched the fleeing tiger, unable to believe his eyes. He helped Sophie Sullivan up. Finding her completely unharmed, he was relieved and finally believed her claim that the tiger had not harmed her.

Sophie Sullivan watched the men in black fully engaged in rescuing Thomas Shannon. His eyes were closed, and he seemed to have stopped breathing.

She bit her fist, holding back the glistening tears, not letting them well up and spill from her eyes.

"Thomas Shannon..."

Hearing her cry, a man in black turned to reassure her. "Young Master is alright; he just fainted."

Hearing this, Sophie Sullivan finally felt her worries ease.

As long as he was fine.

If anything happened to him, she would never find peace in this life.

After considerable effort, the men in black finally managed to pull Thomas Shannon from the quicksand.

The helicopter slowly landed. The strong downdraft from its propellers whipped her long hair wildly.

The men in black carried Thomas Shannon into the helicopter cabin. Sophie Sullivan was also helped aboard by a man in black.

As the helicopter rose, leaving the desert behind, Sophie Sullivan saw the tiger on the sand dunes, running after them.

She didn’t know why, but she felt an inexplicable pang of sorrow.

She waved her hand. She knew it couldn’t see her, but she still wanted to say goodbye to it.

"Goodbye."

「...」

Thomas Shannon was taken to a hospital in Egypt for treatment.

At Charlie River’s request, Sophie Sullivan also underwent a full medical examination. Fortunately, she was found to have no injuries.

The bruises on her back had mostly healed.

But Thomas Shannon’s situation was more complicated.

Coming out of the Emergency Room, the doctor couldn’t be sure when he would wake up.

Sophie Sullivan stood by his bedside, her emotions a complex mix.

She had never expected that, in a life-or-death situation, Thomas Shannon would give her the chance to live, doing so resolutely and without any hesitation.

It was impossible not to be moved.

Sophie Sullivan was moved and guilt-ridden. She was touched by his self-sacrifice to save her and felt guilty, not knowing how to repay him for saving her life.

Charlie River came to her side, his face grave. "Maniac, what happened between you and Young Master on the night of the sandstorm?"
