Ariana paused. Then she turned to the driver's seat to look for Horace's phone, but she had no luck there either.

It seemed Ariana had no choice but to go back to Theodore and find a way to pull him out.

He wanted her to leave and find help.

But she refused to leave him alone. Besides, if Lynch woke up, Theodore would be done for.

“I'LL try again. Maybe it'll work this time." As she spoke, she put Theodore's arm over her shoulder.

Theodore's expression changed and gestured for her to be quiet.

“Listen. What's that sound?"

Ariana held her breath and heard a faint dripping sound.

He pushed Ariana hard, and shouted, "The fuel is leaking! Go! It's going to explode!"

Ariana panicked too. She pulled Theodore toward her anxiously.

“Can you kick the seat?"

As soon as she said that, she realized what she had said and apologized in a hurry.

"I'm sorry. I forgot you can't move your legs... What should I do?"

She burst into tears as she spoke.

She was getting really scared now. The car was about to explode.

Theodore would die if she didn't pull him out right now.

"Go! You'll survive if you get out now." Theodore said that in a cold voice and tried to push her out of the car.

Ariana trembled.

"No, I'm not leaving. I'm going to pull you out."

She held his hand tightly and looked at him persistently.
