At this moment, Jean was walking along the beach. Her shoes sank into the sand the moment she stepped on the beach so she took off her shoes and held them in her hand.
A wave of spindrift dashed over her calves and soon retreated back to the sea.
She turned back and looked at the top of that hotel. Light blue neon was still twinkling, she frowned a bit.
She thought to herself, maybe those two had met each other by now or they had already made up?
The images of those two getting physically intimate kept flashing in her mind. and she felt that her heart ached.
There were many people by the sea tonight, the weather was great and the view by the sea was broad. She could see the starry sky by just lifting her head. How romantic!.
Several couples passed by her, she looked around. It seemed that only she was all by herself on the beach, so lonely.
She sighed. As she got ready to make her way to the shore, her foot hit something hard. She moved away to find the sole of her foot scratched by the object.
"Tsk......" She frowned and squatted to inspect. It was a sea shell. Since the sole of her foot was scratched, the pain got more intense when the sea water brushed.
She lifted her injured foot and was ready to take a closer look when the wave rushed towards her again. She lost balance and fell onto the puddle of sea water. When the wave retreated, it swept her towards the sea.
The retreating wave took her into the sea, wave after wave, she was gradually pulled into the deeper parts.
She thought she didn't get swept too far off and it should be shallow, but when she stretched her legs to touch the ground, the sea water had submerged her shoulders. She panicked upon realizing that.
"Help! I can't swim, Help!" She shouted frantically. A stinging sensation could be felt from her injured foot, it seemed that some sand might have gotten into the wound.
Another wave hit over her head. It made her swallow a lot of sea water!
"Help, help me......"
Many people on shore heard her plead for help but no one moved.
"Is she acting? I just saw her playing by the water there."
"I know how to swim but I have never swum in the sea."
"Lifeguard, quick! Someone is drowning." Someone finally called the lifeguard.
Not far away, Ethan was smoking on the yacht. He raised his head and looked around when he heard someone calling for the lifeguard.
"Ethan, pay no attention to that, let's set out!" Said Sakura who sat beside him. She rested her fair hand on Ethan's arm. Their time alone wasn't easy to come by so she had to cherish it.
Ethan was going to leave but when he looked around he found that the lifeguard was running from the distant and the crowd had no intention to save the one in distress. When he looked out to the sea he saw only a pair of hands on the surface.
He flipped the butt of his cigarette and put his hands on the ship helm.
Bang——
He drove the yacht fast towards her and jumped off when it was close to her. He jumped into the water and held Jean.
Jean had already choked on too much sea water and was now slowly fainting. She leaned her head to Ethan's shoulder and let him take her to the shore.
On the beach, Ethan laid her on the ground.
"Jean? how did you......"
She was very weak now, her head was heavy and her sight blurred. She knew someone was calling her name.
