MasukThird Person Point-Of-View"Why is the vice captain in such a hurry? Do you think they're really...""Definitely! Last time when the captain risked his life to save the vice captain, the way she looked at him completely changed!""The captain too. He's cold to everyone else, but he's willing to talk more with the vice captain."Noah froze in place, his voice shaking badly. "What... What are you saying?"Were they saying Erin had fallen for someone else?No. Absolutely impossible. They'd barely been apart!He practically ran to Sean's hospital room in a panic. Through the glass window, he saw Erin covering her face. She seemed to be crying.Noah could barely stay on his feet. He and Erin had been together for so long, yet he'd never seen her shed a single tear. But now she was crying over another man?Noah couldn't take it anymore. He kicked the door open and stormed in, grabbing Erin and dragging her into his arms. "Come back with me!"Erin struggled violently, biting down ha
I immediately pushed Noah aside and rushed to the monitoring equipment, then started putting on my protective gear."You all stay up here. I'm going down.""What?""No way!"Noah and my teammates' voices rang out in unison.I patted my teammate's shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry, I can do this. It's the vice captain's responsibility."With that, I began preparing to descend. Just then, Noah spread his arms wide and blocked my path. This move completely ignited my fury."Noah, move.""No. I absolutely won't let you go down there to die!"I lunged forward and grabbed his collar, my voice ice cold. "Noah, what right do you have to say that to me?""They don't want me to go because we're teammates who've been through hell together. And you? You're just a mistake I made!"Get lost. I don't have time to waste on you."With that, I kicked his ankle. Noah immediately dropped to his knees on the ice in pain. He had an old injury there, one I'd bandaged myself.I immediately jump
Erin's Point-Of-ViewI'd been in Alryne for two weeks now. It was freezing here. Even my breath could freeze instantly in the air.Only five of us had been sent on this research assignment. The team leader couldn't help but ask, "If I remember right, you're from headquarters, aren't you? Great environment, high salary. Why would you throw that away to come here?"I looked down and smiled softly. At first, maybe I'd just been acting out of spite, wanting to escape Noah. But after two weeks here, I discovered his influence over me wasn't as strong as I'd thought.Working together through extreme weather, celebrating our successful geological surveys, it all gradually pushed him out of my mind.A few days ago, I finally worked up the courage to call my parents. Surprisingly, they were very calm.They told me that on the day I left, they'd flown to Bapo and personally canceled the wedding. In front of everyone, they'd exposed Noah and Heidi's affair and announced they no longer ackno
Third Person Point-Of-ViewEliana's eyes were red as she shouted at him. "Noah! Erin treated you so well and you dared to cheat on her!"And with her own sister! You're both scum. I'm going to make you pay for this today!"While Noah stood frozen, he watched Wesley storm into the room in front of everyone and kick Heidi in the corner."You ungrateful wretch! Your sister always gave you the best of everything growing up. And you? You dared to steal her man!"Heidi ended up black and blue. She sobbed and screamed, "Dad, Mom, it's not like that! You've got it all wrong!""Wrong?" Eliana laughed bitterly. She pulled a letter from her pocket and read it aloud in front of everyone."Mom, Noah and Heidi are together. He's only marrying me to repay the debt he owes me from years ago. But they're delusional if they think I'd ever accept a secondhand, filthy man."Mom, forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye, but don't worry. I'll live well. Far better than I ever would be married
Third Person Point-Of-View"Where is she? Where did the patient go?"Noah seized a passing nurse and demanded sharply."Mr. Levine, the patient completed her discharge paperwork early this morning. She left hours ago."Noah checked his phone. The messages he'd sent still showed no response. Just as his brow furrowed in worry, Erin's parents called."Noah, where are you and Erin? The plane takes off in an hour."Noah suppressed his rising anxiety, but his voice still trembled slightly. "Erin is missing.""What? But today is her wedding! How could she just disappear?"Noah wanted to ask the same question. This was the day Erin had been waiting for so long. Not only was she nowhere to be found, but she wasn't even responding to his messages.After hanging up, he immediately had the hospital pull the security footage. Before long, Erin's family rushed over. Her mother, Eliana Cromwell, grabbed Noah frantically."Noah, did you two have a fight? Did you do something to upset her?"
When I woke up again, Noah was gripping my hand tightly. His eyes were bloodshot, like he was about to cry."Erin, you scared me to death. I thought I was going to lose you."He pulled me into a tight embrace, his voice choking. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you alone on the side of the road. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."Thank God you're okay. I really wouldn't know how to go on living if something happened to you..."He kissed my hair, his voice still trembling with lingering fear. But I only felt the irony of it all.I pushed him away coldly. "You're hurting me."Noah immediately let go and apologized.After a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke. "Why were you in a car accident on Second Street? That's nowhere near the hospital.""A friend called me at the last minute. He lives nearby."I hated lies, yet here I was, lying with such ease.Noah's brow furrowed immediately, his tone tinged with jealousy. "What friend? Who would ask you to go out while you were running a feve
