Chapter 345 The loud wail of an ambulance filled the air .
Mr.
Flynn ! The ambulance is here ! The paramedics hurried out of the car to check on Yvette .
providing her with life saving aid before they gently placed her on a stretcher .
Yvette was hurt , her condition unknown .
Josiah knew he shouldnt leave her like this , but he got no choice .
He fought with grabbing his phone and dialing Howard .
Howard .
I need your help h his thoughts before Aner hanging up .
Josiah turned to James .
To the dock ! Got it .
Mr.
Flynn ! As soon as he got into the car , Josiah called Zach .
Zach .
Sienna- Mr.
Flynn ! Zachs anxious voice interrupted .
The cargo dock is on fire ! The flames are huge ! We cant get near ! On fire ! How could that be ? Andy ! Anger flared in Josiahs eyes , and his jaw tightened as if it might break .
His heart raced as frustration bubbled Inside him .
What about the firemen ! Havent they shown up Theyre here ! Zach replied quickly .
The firefighters are trying to put out The flames at the cargo hold ! Once the fire dies down , well rush in ! Wait ? Could Sienna afford to wait ! Josiahs determination grew , and he frowned , trying to piece his thoughts together Andy had said that Yvette was at cargo dock , while Sienna was at Emerald Ridge one to the eastern district of the city , the other to the western district .
He was certain he hadnt misheard , but now he wondered if Andy had made a mistake .
The east dock blazed fiercely .
Hello ! Is anyone there ? Sienna shouted , desperation in her voice as she lifted a chair shed sat on moments before and struck it against the steel door with all her strength .
But the door didnt budge … What can I do ? Am I really going to die here today ? Fear gripped her , as it does with everyone; Sienna was no exception .
Though she couldnt see the flames yet , thick smoke was already seeping through the doors cracks .
She frowned , her throat burning .
With each cry and the suffocating smoke , her energy faded until she slumped against the door , falling to the floor .
She gasped for air , feeling her body betray her as heat and lack of oxygen clouded her vision , turning everything red and flushing her face .
In her despair , Sienna closed her eyes .
She feared she might not survive this In her life , the only moments of happiness were when she was a little girl , surrounded by her loving parents .
But those joys didnt last ; her fathers betrayal and her mothers early death shattered her world .
Her grandfather had died of grief , and though her grandmother was old , she raised her .
Then the day o came when she lost her grandmother too .
The Flynn family took her in , but she always felt like an outsider in their home .
Even when they treated her poorly , she never complained .
Her grandmother had taught her the importance of gratitude , * So tired … Sienna whispered , her eyes still closed .
Thinking about the last twenty years exhausted her .
She thought , Maybe leaving this world could be freeing .
Perhaps Heaven would be kind to me .
Suddenly , a loud crash jolted Sienna awake .
Her eyes flew open opening where bright firelight poured in to see the iron door consumed by flames , the door frame warped , creating a narrow That same light had once felt like the end , but now it sparked a flicker of hope .
Joyce , Joyce Sienna called out her daughters name through tears .
She felt unloved ; her life had been filled with struggles , but she couldnt allow herself to die .
She thought , What will happen to Joyce ! If I were gone , my daughter would face the same tragic fate .
Joyer is still so young … She couldnt let Joyce suffer through the same pain she had.
She had to survive .
She must .
As a mother , she didnt have the right to be selfish die alone .
and Joyce , Joyce … Sienna repeated her daughters name , finding comfort in it .
In her weakened state , she crawled toward the gap , raising her hand to pry it open .
Joyce , Joyce … Fresh tears streained down berface , but it was no use .
Even if the door had weakened , it was still too much for her to force open alone .
Sienna cried aloud .
Joyce , Joyce … Despite trying her hardest , she couldnt budge the door .
Her delicate fingers dug into th the gap , her nails cracking 212 Tang Chin 7:13 AM Chapter 345 as blood seeped through .
But that wasnt all ; soon , her fingertips were cut , and blood ran down her hands .
Joyce , Joyce … Outside , when Cedric arrived , firefighters had already sealed off the area and were battling the raging fire .
Do not enter ! The rescued people are over by the ambulances ; some have already been taken to the hospital ; you can ask there ! Cedric rushed over to check .noveldrama
As he searched , he found no mention of Siennas name and didnt see her among the ambulances .
This meant she was still inside .
But the firefighters wouldnt let him through .
Frowning , Cedric thought about the cargo dock , which he knew well , as his family had rented it out .
With the front blocked , he planned another route .
Cedric headed around to the southeast corner of the cargo dock .
Facing the flames , Cedric grabbed a blanket from his car trunk and soaked it with water .
Once it was wet enough , he secured it over his head and dashed in through the southeast corner .
Steeling himself .
Cedric braced for the worst : worried he wouldnt find Sienna .
After all , the cargo dock was huge .
he He had seen Sienna get taken away , and now he was here .
He couldnt just stand around and do nothing .
If there were any chance , he had to try .
For that small hope might turn into a real chance for Siennas survival .
Cedric plunged into the dark , carefully weaving through the flames .
Above , water poured down as firefighters fought the blaze .
The flames had weakened a bit .
In the thickening smoke .
Cedric quickly found himself drenched .
Sienna ! Sienna ! He lifted the blanket now and then , calling her name as he searched around .
