Chapter 516 Meet by Chance
At this time, on the set.
Laura had been hanging below for ten minutes.
Peter and Nicole were anxious and thought of every way, but there was nothing they could do to save
her.
Because there was only one scene on the mountain today, there were not many people here. Besides
the lighting crew, some propmen and photographers, only Peter, a few male actors, and a makeup
artist were here.
The sudden accident caught everyone off guard.
Peter yelled at the propmen, "Didn't you guys say you checked it before? What's going on? This is
what you called 'checked'?"
They were a little aggrieved, "the bridge is not a prop. It's been here for a long time and it's always
been strong. How could we have known it would break when Laura was walking on it?"
Peter was so angry he almost had a heart attack.
He turned to his assistant and asked, "Have you found anyone to help yet?"
The assistant shook his head awkwardly, "we're in the middle of nowhere and it's raining. The crane
can't get here anytime soon."
Peter was anxious, "What about the martial arts instructors? Tell them to bring wires over and save
her."
The assistant was in a dilemma.
"There is no martial arts instructor here today. Because we can't bring a lot of props, the prop team
didn't bring wires. We..."
"Enough!"
Nicole suddenly shouted, her eyes red with anger. She glared at those irresponsible people and
shouted, "What are you doing? Laura has been hanging for more than ten minutes. How long can she
hold on in the rain? Can somebody help her?"
The assistant looked at her and didn't say anything.novelbin
Nicole added, "There are no wires but you guys have ropes. Tie the ropes to your body and go down.
Oh, come on! Man up, people!"
No one spoke or even looked at her. They all avoided her questioning gaze.
Nicole was desperate.
Just then, someone in the crowd whispered, "It's raining heavily and the rocks are wet and slippery.
Nobody would go down there without any protection unless he wants to die!"
Before that person could finish his sentence, he was elbowed and shut up.
Peter looked mad, but he could not force people to go down there.
He instructed his assistant in a low voice, "Call the crew and tell them to send someone with tools here.
By the way, call the police and see if they have a quicker and easier way to save her."
The assistant immediately did what he said.
Nicole knew that Laura would not be rescued anytime soon.
They called the crew and the police, but it would take them at least half an hour to get up here. Who
knew if Laura could hold on that long?
She cried out in fear.
When Peter turned around and saw her crying, he was furious.
"Come on. Don't cry. You will be fine!"
Nicole said as she wiped her tears, "She's been down there for so long. How can she be fine?"
Her words made Peter a little worried.
He walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, only to see that it was so deep that Laura could not
be seen.
"Laura, are you okay? Can you hear me?"
After a long time, a faint voice came from below.
"Yes."
The voice was faint, but it cheered up the crowd.
Everyone was excited. Peter said at once, "Don't worry. I've sent someone to get the tools. We'll go get
you right away. How long can you hold on?"
In fact, Laura couldn't hold on any longer.
A sudden accident, danger, and heavy rain.
Physiologically and psychologically, she could barely hold on.
However, she clenched her teeth and shouted, "I can hold on a little longer."
Peter heard her voice and was relieved.
"Okay, hang in there. People are on their way to help."
The rocks were slippery in the rain, so no one dared to risk their lives and go down there and they
could only wait for professional rescuers.
Time was running out.
At that time, Peter let go of his prejudice against Laura. After all, she was an actress in his crew and he
had to make sure that she was safe.
He looked at his watch and made a phone call again.
"How fast can you get here?"
The rescue team was on its way.
"At least twenty minutes."
"Can you go faster?"
"We're coming as fast as we can. Tell her to hold on and wait for us."
Peter scolded, "Wait for you? Are you kidding me? This is somebody's life we're talking about!
The person on the other side of the phone was helpless. People were not birds and could not fly. In the
end, he hung up the phone in Peter's anxious cursing.
So Max and his fellows arrived only to see the mess.
"What's going on? Are you guys filming anything now? What are you all doing at the edge of the cliff?"
It hadn't been long since Laura had fallen and word hadn't spread, so the others didn't know about it.
Max took a look at Peter and recognized him.
The image of a woman flashed instantly across his mind and his face darkened with anger.
"Let's get out of here."
After saying that, he turned to leave.
People who came with him were confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Oh come on, Max. Let's see what's happening here."
"It's raining so hard and this is the only place where there is a shelter. Let's stay."
It was clear that none of them wanted to leave.
Max's face darkened even more.
At that moment, Peter spoke up.
He knew Max. They didn't know each other well, but he had no other choice right now.
He walked anxiously toward Max and said, "Max! Glad you're here. I need your help. You are
resourceful and powerful. Help us!"
Before Max could say anything, Nicole approached him and looked at him excitedly.
"Max, save Laura! If you don't save her, she's not gonna survive this."
Max trembled.
His countenance changed.
Nicole had seen Max approach Laura several times before. She didn't know if they were in a
relationship, but she was sure something had happened between them.
