Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368

Emma was also quite smart. Once she calmed down, she immediately understood what I meant. She wanted to say something. but I had already opened the car door and pushed her out.

Seeing several people swimming toward us, I shoved her again, urging her to leave quickly.

In the face of life and death, survival would become an instinct for veryone. So even though she didn’t wish me harm or want to leave me behind, she swam away with tears in her eyes.

Not long after she left, those so–called “rescuers” surrounded me

When they noticed someone had swum away, they exchanged hand signals underwater, planning to send some after her and others to capture me.

Realizing this, I quickly pointed at myself, trying to tell them that was the one they were looking for. Then I turned and swam in the opposite direction, hoping to lure them away and buy her more time to escape.

Back then, on the verge of death, Irvin appeared, rescuing me from drowning. At that moment, he truly felt like an angel to me.

I guess that was when I first started falling for him.

Maybe this was karma for not cherishing life then, that I had to die in the water in the end.

Just before I lost consciousness, I vaguely saw someone swimming frantically toward me.

I wasn’t sure if it was real or just a hallucination. When I looked at him, it was like seeing how Irvin had once swum toward me, saving me from suffocating agony.

As I blacked out, I couldn’t see who it really was.

I didn’t get to see the terrifying rage in his eyes, as if he wanted to burn the whole world down, when he saw me lying limp, like

lifeless doll.

I also didn’t witness how ruthless he was, taking down the people I couldn’t even fight back with just a few moves.

By the time Noah arrived, William had already carried me to shore performed CPR, and made sure I was out of danger.
