A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 251

Nelson was reading in his room when he heard a voice calling for him outside, and it sounded like Lily's. He beamed as his heart began to race.

Nelson placed the book on his bed and answered the door.

Lily was at the door with a panicked expression on her face.

"What's wrong, Lily?" Nelson asked.

Lily was out of breath from running. When she was about to speak, she accidentally choked and started coughing persistently, so much so that she couldn't say anything.

Nelson went back into his room and poured a glass of water for Lily. He gestured Lily to drink the water whilst patting her on her back.

"Slow down. Don't rush. Is it that exciting to see me?" Nelson joked, raising his eyebrows.

"Go to hell. You think I'm excited because of you? You need to rescue Linda. She just fell into the water, and I couldn't swim, so I can't save her."

"What? Lady Linda fell into the water?" Nelson's demeanour changed dramatically.

"Yes, in the plum garden. You should hurry! I was going to come visit you, but suddenly I forgot where you lived. So I went back and found Linda in the water. And from the way she looked, it didn't seem like she couldn't hang on much longer."

"I'll go rescue Lady Linda. You let Anna know and bring her there, we need her."

"Okay."

Nelson immediately raced towards the plum garden.

He was running as fast as he could, worried for Linda's life.

He could tell that Lord Nalan really cherished Lady Linda, and he couldn't let anything happen to her. And there was also the unborn baby. He couldn't lose two lives like this!

In two minutes, Nelson made it to the plum garden's gate.

Other than the bright lights and the slight trembles of the plum blossoms because of the breeze, the garden was dead silent.

It was already dark, and a bad feeling came over Nelson at once. He quickly ran inside, "Lady Linda, Lady Linda, can you hear me? If you can hear me, please make a sound so I can hear you."

"Nel..."

A weak voice came from the pond. Nelson immediately rushed towards the pond and saw Linda holding on to the edge with one hand. Her eyes were closed, her face pale and her lips almost blue.

"My Lady, just hold on a little longer. I'll get you out of the water."

Linda opened her eyes slightly, but she couldn't see anything clearly at that moment. The water was too cold.

She could only grab the edge of the pond with one hand, and protect her belly with another. She feared that something would happen to her baby.

Having held on for so long, she couldn't feel anything in her arm. She was fighting to hold on, and when she heard Nelson's voice and saw his distorted figure, her strength escaped her.

She let go and floated further away from the edge.

Suddenly she felt a sharp discomfort in her nose. She was drowning. But she had nothing left in her to fight for her life.

Nelson took off his coat right away and jumped into the water.

She felt a warm embrace, followed by being lifted and small splashes of water as Nelson swam to the edge.

Even though her lungs welcomed the fresh air, Linda couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
