Chapter 864_When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 864 A Venomous Snake

 Looking in the direction of the noise, Cecilia saw that it wasing from Vivian’s tent. Unaware that Jessica was the one inside, she hurried over, thinking something had happened to Vivian.

 “Vivian, what’s wrong?”

 No sooner had she finished speaking than Jessica rushed out from the tent. With fear in her eyes, she pointed at the tent. “There’s a snake inside!”

 Her piercing scream had stirred the others awake.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.

 One by one they emerged from the tent.

 “What happened?”

 The first one to emerge was Sven.

 He was neatly dressed, having risen early; he just didn’t emerge from the tent because everyone else was still asleep.

 Pretending not to notice Cecilia, Jessica immediately dashed toward Sven. “Mr. Sven, there’s a snake inside the tent.

 Cecilia didn’t pay Jessica any heed. She assumed thatst night, Vivian kindly allowed Jessica to share a tent with her.

 Thinking Vivian was still in the tent and worried the snake would attack her, Cecilia carefully unzipped the tent. “Vivian?”

 Vivian was not inside. Cecilia spotted the highly venomous many–banded krait in the tent at first nce.

 Her pupils constricted as she took a step back, zipping up the tent.

 She then turned to Jessica. “Where’s Vivian?”

 Before Jessica could respond, Cecilia saw Vivian, her face flushed, emerging from Zachary’s tent with him.

 “Ceci, listen to me. Nothing happened between us,” Vivian said.

 Zachary furrowed his brows. “What’s there to exin? We’re engaged; it’s perfectly normal for us to share a tent.”

 Vivian stomped on his foot to silence him.

 Lucille and Mason were also roused by themotion outside, emerging from their tent.

 “What happened?” Lucille asked, rubbing her eyes.

 Upon seeing that Vivian was unharmed, Cecilia was relieved. She pointed toward the tent, “There’s a highly venomous many–banded krait in there.”

 Many–banded kraits were typically docile, they wouldn’t attack humans without provocation. However, if one was bitten by a many–banded krait and didn’t receive immediate medical attention, it could result in

 “A many–banded krait? That’s a venomous snake. What should we do?” Lucille was startled.

 Cecilia had no idea either. She was oblivious to the fact that there was arge hole in one part of the tent.

 The many–banded krait slowly slithered out of the hole.

 “Ah! It’s out!” Jessica let out another shriek.

 Only then did everyone realize the snake had slithered out while they were talking, getting close to Cecilia.

 “Come over here, Ceci,” Vivian said.

 “Hold on. Don’t move yet!” Nathaniel’s steady voice resonated.

 Cecilia knew that she couldn’t run at the moment, nor could she provoke the snake. It was best to wait for it to slither away on its own.

 After all, she surely couldn’t outrun the snake.

 “Everyone be quiet,” Nathaniel ordered again.

 Everyone fell silent.

 Sure enough, once things quieted down, the snake stopped venturing toward them and slithered away instead.

 Suddenly, Jessica clung tightly to Sven, screaming incessantly, “This is terrifying! Ah, kill it!”

 The snake, disturbed by the noise, stopped and began hissing at Cecilia.

 Sven wanted to rush to Cecilia’s aid, but Jessica clung to him like an octopus, refusing to let go.

 “Mr. Sven, I’m so scared! Cecilia, run! Don’t just stand there!” Jessica cried out.

 She clearly wanted the snake to bite Cecilia.

 The two children, standing beside Nathaniel, grew anxious. “Mommy!”

 If Cecilia was bitten, it would take three to four hours to get her to the hospital from the mountain peak. Given that Cecilia was pregnant, she would be at huge risk.

 The snake was about to lunge at Cecilia.
