After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 320

Chapter 320 Danger (9) Her Savior

Hannah was not shot dead on the spot. She was bound by those men and was taken into a black car. At that time, her mouth was gagged with a cloth, so she could not make a sound.
In that quiet night, this poor town looked so solitary against the dark night where there was a crescent moon hanging ethereal. There was very little foot traffic.
Hannah did not have a clue where she would be taken to. Her heart was filled with extreme fear. It turned out that no matter how many times she had experienced death, she could not stay calm when facing death.
The bumpy car suddenly stopped. The halt of the car made Hannah's body tremble. Her fear was even more obvious.
She glared at the men in front of her with her eyes wide open. Since her mouth was stuffed with a cloth, she could not say a word, making it impossible for her to convey her thoughts. It was out of the question for her to escape by herself now.
Hannah got off the car while still being tied up. The somewhat familiar place made her stunned. If she remembered correctly, this was the place where she and Theodore saved Thoth last night.
She would be thrown into the Blue River too, she supposed. As Theodore had said, it was a common mean among those drug dealers.
It was indeed an undeniably great way to kill someone and cover the crime. Not a single bullet was needed, and not a single trace would be left behind. After the victims were tied up to stones and thrown into the river, it would never be discovered by others, unless the river dried up.
No one knew how many people had been drowned in Blue River and how many innocent souls had been buried in it.
The more Hannah thought about it, the more she hated these people.
Even fear was not as strong as the hatred. She had never thought that there would be such a dark side and such crimes at such a place. When she was thinking, she felt that a rock was being tied to her body.
Hannah looked at the people in front of her. Their faces were cold and indifferent. It seemed that they had gotten used to it.
Was a human life nothing to them?
If she still had a chance to survive, she must bring these people to justice and give fair back to this place, she thought.
Hannah quivered with fear. She was rudely pushed to the bank of the river. Below the high dam, there was the gloomy river. Tonight, the moonlight was dim and the river sank in the dark. Hannah could only vaguely feel the tumbling rapids below. Once she was thrown down into the river, she might be immediately washed away.
Trembling all over, Hannah was immersed in all kinds of terror and terrible guesses.
Finally, she was flung into the river with violence. Those people were very strong, and she even did not have a chance to resist.
Her body was instantly entrapped in the water. Hannah could swim. But with a rock weighing hundred pounds, she could not get any chance to struggle. Her body was being dragged deeper and deeper into the river by the rock, sinking nonstop.
She held her breath, trying to prevent herself from choking on the water, and trying to find chances of survival. However, as she was sinking deeper, she gradually began to feel suffocated.
Suddenly, she felt sad. It was a kind of desire for life everyone would have before death. It was the longing dying people would have for their living loved ones in this world.
Hannah looked back at her whole life.
She was reborn, and her life was short.
She had enemies, but she had not finished taking revenge.
She had beloved older family members, but she had not fulfilled her filial duty to them.
As for beloved man, she had a beloved man, but she had not even told him that she loved him.
She had regrets.
Hannah gradually began to drift into unconsciousness.
The scene of her being stabbed to death in her former life seemingly appeared vividly before her at the moment. It turned out that the feelings of death were exactly the same.
Hannah became completely desperate. Then, she saw a figure swimming and rushing towards her.
Hannah, who was about to lose her consciousness, suddenly quivered and felt like she suddenly came to life in an instant again. She widened her eyes and watched the figure growing big before her eyes and getting closer to her. Soon, that figure came to her side. As he grabbed onto her body, he used the sharp dagger in his hand to cut off the rope binding her body. At the same time, the stone left her body. Hannah felt much more relaxed at once. The next second, she frantically swam towards the surface of the water.
The man who saved her followed her and swam towards the surface of the water. He even lifted her body, so that she could swim faster.
Hannah breathed out with relief. Her head was finally out of the water. When she took the first breath, her eyes turned red. Hannah thought she was going to see God. Surprisingly, she survived. For the first time, she thought it very reasonable to say that the secret to longevity was to keep breathing. So she tried as hard as she could to breathe and tried as hard as she could to survive.
Suddenly, her body was dragged towards the river bank. Only then did Hannah realized that the man who saved her life was Oscar, who had been suddenly gone and then suddenly appeared and saved her life. Every time she was in danger, Oscar always appeared in front of her.
Her vision blurred. She just felt that happiness was so simple, but it was not easy to get. She reached out her hand and grabbed Oscar's clothes, tightly.
Oscar seemed to feel her fear and he carried Hannah to the bank. Theodore and Jimmy were waiting for them there. Seeing Hannah and Oscar appear from the water, they hurriedly helped them get ashore.
In the dead of night, a cold wind kicked up and brought a chill.
Hannah suddenly sneezed. When Theodore was hesitating whether he should put his dry clothes around Hannah's shoulder, he saw Oscar hold Hannah's hand and take her back into the car with a cold face. Looking at his unhappy face, Theodore did not dare to speak to him at all. Jimmy was also afraid and dared not to say a word.
Seeing that Oscar and Hannah had gotten into the car, Jimmy had no idea whether he should get into the car. So he just looked at Theodore, seemingly asking for his opinion.
Theodore and Jimmy just stayed put.
Then they heard Oscar suppress his anger and say coldly, "Get in the car!"
Theodore immediately ran towards the car. Seeing Theodore run to the car, Jimmy hurriedly followed him. The two of them separately sat in the front seats. Jimmy started the car but he didn't know the destination.
Just now, he had just been told to come here and wait. Now, he did not have a clue where he should drive the car to.
"Drive back to Kensbury City." Said Oscar.
Jimmy could finally let out a sigh of relief and do his job. At this moment in the back seats, Oscar put a clean coat, which he put in the car before, around Hannah's shoulders. The same as Hannah, Oscar was drenched all over, but he did not take any measures to keep himself warm.
Theodore suddenly asked him, "Do you need a towel?"
Oscar just took a look at him, which made Theodore feel his hate and displeasure.
Oscar was very scary sometimes. Theodore felt that it was wrong for him to speak, no, even just to breathe! Anyway, he was not the one who made Oscar mad and it was Hannah who led to this, he complained to himself.
