As the luxury car rolled, Heather was thrashed around in the car because of inertia.She seemed to be able to hear Tyrone calling out her name.There was a splash, and the car fell right into the river below.Heather almost fell unconscious, her body stuck in between the two rows of seats. She opened her eyes in a blur and saw the water level outside of the car window quickly rising.The car was sinking.Before she could think too much, her survival instinct kicked in as she struggled and tried to press the button for the car window.Luckily, it was still operable.The car window quickly rolled down and the cold water of the river rushed into the car. At this time, the car had already completely sunk into the river.Heather gritted her teeth as she swam out of the car window. She suddenly remembered something and turned around.She saw Greg's fingers holding tightly at the car window as the car sank deeper, wanting to climb out. However, he didn't have any strength in his legs
Tyrone's face lost all colors the moment he heard the news, and the pain in his chest seemed to be spreading at the same time. He could feel pain all over his body.He sat there without making a movement, as if he was frozen in ice.Caleb looked at his pale face and didn't dare to say anything else."She would be fine," Tyrone suddenly said with a smile seconds later. He then continued with a hoarse voice and relaxed tone, saying, "I've taught her how to swim. She won't die from drowning."She must have ended up somewhere else. That has to be it, she must have gotten on shore from somewhere else and they didn't see it. Dispatch our men to find her."He seemed to not be in a rush at all as he maintained a faint smile on his lips. He was smiling, true, but his smile was so terrifying that they were all shivering inside.They all knew that the current of the Grand River was very strong and its water was very cold in this season.Not to mention there was no sighting of Heather after
"Why did you change your mind when you didn't want to save me in the first place?" Greg's voice rang in Heather's ears.Heather was pulled back into reality and looked at him, not sure what to say. "Don't think everyone's as malicious as you. I never intended to give you up. I was simply taking a breath."She was almost out of air herself at the time. If she hadn't gone up for air, they would all drown and die.Heather planned to save him from the very beginning.Greg narrowed his eyes. "Why?""Why did I save you?" Heather scoffed. "I can't let you die, can I?"It was nothing special.She disliked Greg, but she couldn't simply let him die.There was no sign of lying in Heather's eyes.Greg looked away, a strange emotion stirring inside of him.Someone like him used to link one's action to what benefit one could gain.Greg thought Heather saved him because she still needed him to deal with Winnie. He didn't expect the reason was such a simple one. She couldn't let him die.A
Saying those two words seemed to be very humiliating for Greg.Heather wasn't really trying to waste time with Greg anyway, otherwise she would have humiliated him with a few more words.…Greg was physically quite tall. For Heather to carry him, every step she took was quite tiring for her. She had to rest after only a while.They finally reached a place with higher ground and she immediately put Greg down on a piece of clearing and she sat down, panting."Alright. We'll rest here."Greg simply gave her a look and said nothing.There was nothing much for Heather to say to Greg, anyway. She leaned against a tree trunk, looking at the surface of the river.She didn't expect Tyrone's insistence of teaching her how to swim would one day save her life.She was very tired and hungry. Her entire body was very uncomfortable. And she missed… Tyrone, a lot.Tyrone's handsome face appeared in her mind as she bit her lip. Tyrone must find her soon.…On the other side, the fourth wave
In the evening, Heather ventured away to find some fruits to fill up their belly."Is this really edible? I don't want any. Find me something else."Even when Greg had fallen into hard times, he was still expecting the same privilege as before.Greg looked at the red fruit with its gnarly skin in disdain. He didn't even want to touch it, as if it would make his hand dirty by just touching it."I'll prepare a feast then?"In other words, Heather was trying to tell him that they were already lucky that she could find some fruits despite where they were.Heather was also getting annoyed. She didn't care if Greg was going to eat it and she simply tossed two of the fruits to him, while she took the other four and walked over to a tree nearby. She sat down and started to eat it.Greg put the fruits away in disdain before turning to look at Heather. After a while, he asked, "How did you know there are flash floods here?"Heather turned to glance at him before looking at the river ag
Diego never gave up pursuing them.It was at this time that Heather saw a small boat was floating on the surface of the river. Diego must have searched for them along the shore and found them."You're his woman?" Diego said in broken Astorian as he glared at Heather.Heather forced herself to calm down and forced a smile. "He has nothing to do with me, actually. I'm just an innocent woman. He broke Winnie's leg, so can you let me go?"Greg wasn't sure what to say as he looked at her in disbelief.Diego bared his teeth like a wolf and said, "My order from the madam is to kill Greg and everyone with him. Both of you can forget about escaping. I will start with you!"He aimed the muzzle of his gun at Heather.Heather blinked.She didn't cripple Winnie, why did he choose to start with her?Wasn't he supposed to start with Greg?Diego didn't want to waste his time with them at all. When Heather saw he was going to pull the trigger, she closed her eyes and screamed, "I know where y
Heather raised her head and Tyrone's handsome face entered her sight.Tyrone's lips were pursed tightly and there were stubbles under his chin. His eyes were red because of the reddish veins. He looked like he hadn't rested properly for a long time.Heather narrowed her eyes and instinctively held him tightly, her face right on Tyrone's chest. She could hear his racing heartbeat.It really was him.She wasn't dreaming."It's me. I'm sorry for being late." Tyrone's hoarse voice sounded on top of her.Other than Tyrone, Caleb and his other subordinates had also arrived. Several of them quickly bolted out and pinned Diego on the ground, who was struggling after his shoulder had been shot.Tyrone's warm chest felt like her safest abode. Heather finally relaxed her tense body, and her emotions also quickly came out.Her tears rolled down her cheeks. "I thought I'll never be able to go back. I thought I was going to die. What took you so long…"She didn't cry when she escaped from t
Next to him, Diego was kneeling on the ground in a strange pose as he was held by Tyrone's subordinate. The blood from his knees was staining the ground.Diego had already suffered a gunshot wound on his shoulder just now. After this shot, the pain made his already pale face drenched in sweat. He was in so much pain that he was shaking, and he could only gasp for air as he glared at Greg.There was the sound of another gunshot.Both Diego's knees had been shot.He gritted his teeth as he was in so much pain that he was on the verge of falling unconscious.Greg gave the gun back to the bodyguard and smiled cruelly. "Now, you're the one that can't leave this forest."The air was thick with the scent of blood.Tyrone looked away indifferently and lowered his head, saying to Heather, "We'll talk after we're back."There was blood from Diego and mud on her. She was extremely filthy.Tyrone picked her up as if he didn't see any of it and was about to leave."My daughter…"Diego'
