Almost instinctively, Drake grabbed Debra's arm.
He was shocked by her actions.
Debra was already dangling off the edge of the ship, the ocean waves crashing against her ankles. All it would take was for Drake to let go, and she'd plunge straight into the sea.
"Mr. Lowe!" Peter was horrified.
Drake's voice was filled with fury as he shouted, "What are you waiting for? Get her up."
"I-I'll go get someone," Peter stammered.
"No need." Debra struggled against Drake's grip.
But he only tightened his hold. "Are you so eager to die?"
"My life is my own to decide. Either you give me the respect I deserve, or..." Debra insisted.
Drake gritted his teeth, anger flashing across his face. No one had ever dared threaten him like this before.
"Sir, I've got the rope."
"Pull her up."
"Yes, sir."
A rope was lowered down, hanging right beside Debra. But even with it within reach, she made no move to climb up.
Drake's jaw clenched, and he sighed, "Fine, you won. Get up now."
Seeing that her plan was working, Debra finally reached for the rope. But it wasn't enough for her. She grabbed onto it and flashed Drake a mocking smile.
"I don't like being ordered around. No one can tell me what to do."
