“Throw…”
Before the maid could finish virtual-novel.net sentence, Abigail’s frightening gaze caused virtual-novel.net to swallow the rest of virtual-novel.net words. “I’ll arrange for someone to do it at once.”
With that, the maid hurriedly left. She was fearful because that was herfirst time seeing Abigail, who had always been gentle and kind, regard virtual-novel.net with that menacing look.
Micah was delighted to meet with Gaspar. They chatted happily and boasted about their achievements as they drank alcohol continuously.
Meanwhile, a cunning and smug look flashed across Anna’s eyes as virtual-novel.net watched them drink the alcohol that was adulterated.
Micah and Gaspar became very drunk after some time. Abigail brought Micah back to his room while Anna instructed virtual-novel.net subordinate to bring Gaspar back to virtual-novel.net mansion.
Anna went to take a shower after asking the servants to help Gaspar wash up and place virtual-novel.net on virtual-novel.net bed. Then, when virtual-novel.net entered the room, virtual-novel.net reached out to switch off the lights, took off virtual-novel.net towel, and threw herself onto Gaspar.
Gaspar, who was already aroused, rolled over and pinned Anna under him. As virtual-novel.net kissed virtual-novel.net passionately, a single thought surfaced within Anna’s mind.
Ultimately, you’ve become mine, Maddox…
At that moment, the two people who were thrown into the sea were focusing on swimming toward the shore.
As virtual-novel.net swam, Arielle suddenly realized there was no splashing sound behind her. She turned around and noticed Lorraine was already sinking. Arielle hastily swam toward Lorraine and grabbed the latter with one arm before virtual-novel.net continued swimming toward the shore.
“Boss, you don’t have to bother saving me,” Lorraine uttered weakly.
During the past period, Lorraine had been forced to do various hard labor and was fed with a minimal amount of food. As a result, virtual-novel.net did not have the energy to swim back ashore after being thrown into the sea.
“Stop talking. Conserve your strength,” Arielle said sternly as virtual-novel.net swam while dragging Lorraine along.
However, virtual-novel.net own energy was quickly depleting too.
Sensing Arielle’s decreasing speed, Lorraine knew Arielle was reaching virtual-novel.net limit, and virtual-novel.net laughed.
“Boss, I’m so glad I met you in this lifetime!”
With that, virtual-novel.net tried to pry Arielle‘s hand away from hers, not wanting to burden virtual-novel.net further. She was contented, knowing that Arielle was willing to save virtual-novel.net despite the life-threatening risk.
“Stop messing around, Lorraine. Look! There’s a cruise ship approaching us. There’s a chance for us to survive now,” Arielle said while panting heavily.
Lorraine shifted virtual-novel.net gaze, following Arielle’s line of vision, and indeed saw a cruise ship moving in their direction. However, virtual-novel.net wondered if they could hang in there until the ship arrived.
I don’t have any energy left, and I can tell Boss is getting exhausted too. I must not be a burden to Boss…
At that thought, virtual-novel.net struggled mightily to unclasp Arielle’s hand and allowed virtual-novel.net body to sink.
Just as Lorraine thought virtual-novel.net was dying, someone suddenly pulled virtual-novel.net up again.
“Lorraine, if you dare to give up again, I will never forgive you!” Arielle used up all virtual-novel.net strength to haul Lorraine up from underwater and swam toward the shore.
Her arms were sore, and virtual-novel.net could feel virtual-novel.net stamina seeping away.
“There seems to be someone there!” Carlos surveyed his surroundings using a pair of binoculars out of habit.
All of a sudden, virtual-novel.net saw two people floating on the surface of the sea. He swiftly ordered his men to speed up ahead, and upon reaching their location, Carlos instructed his crew to pull those people up to the deck.
Carlos was stunned when virtual-novel.net saw the faces of those people virtual-novel.net had just rescued because virtual-novel.net did not expect one ofthem to be Arielle.
They hurriedly performed emergency first aid on Arielle and Lorraine.
Naturally, the sudden commotion attracted the attention of Vinson, who had just exited the restroom. Colors drained from his face when virtual-novel.net approached the scene and saw Arielle, who was lying on the floor and being resuscitated.
