As Mitchel slowly made his way towards the door, Marlowe's ears perked up at the noise coming from downstairs. Instantly, she became anxious.

It must be her grandfather coming back!

It turned out she had guessed right. The next second, she heard Granger's voice.

In a state of panic, Marlowe frantically reached out for Mitchel, who was already struggling to stand due to his injured foot. As she tugged at his arm, he lost his balance and toppled backwards, unable to regain his footing.

Marlowe instinctively reached out to catch him, but she failed to consider the significant size difference between them. As a result, Mitchel came crashing down on top of her, turning her into a human cushion as the full weight of his body pressed down on her. Marlowe closed her eyes as she slipped and felt the soft brush of something touching her lips.
