Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198 Rescued on Time

Claire looked into his eyes. Rowan withdrew his gaze, staring forward while driving solemnly.
Claire also returned to her senses, feeling worried for Saskia. 'Silly girl! Too childish!' she inwardly blamed her bestie.
"Why did she want to end her life?" Rowan asked calmly as a professional doctor, "Does she suffer from depression? What's her usual status?"
If the girl was rescued, he thought she would need psychological counseling.
"Her boyfriend cheated on her. She couldn't let go of it," Claire heaved a sigh and answered honestly, "They've dated since high school. He was the only boy in her youth."
Sometimes, Claire understood how Saskia felt. However, Saskia shouldn't have tortured herself. Instead, she should have taught the scumbag a lesson.
Rowan understood, realizing the girl commit suicide for the disappointment in love. He sped up the car, wishing to rescue the girl.
A few minutes later, they pulled up to the place where a line of ghats was. After they turned right, there was a river bank that stood tall.
Claire immediately unbuckled her seat belt and hopped off the car. Rowan followed her. They ran up to the ghats.
The ghats were lined in zigzag, vertical, and steep.
When they finally arrived on the top of the river bank, Claire's legs weakened. On the last step, she gasped for her breath. The next second, she saw a figure hop over the fence for jumping into the river.
"Saskia!" She desperately ran towards her. "Stop it! Don't jump!"
Rowan also rushed to the bank, seeing the urgent scene and hearing Claire's panicked scream. He reacted quickly, running towards the girl as fast as he could.
When Saskia heard Claire's screen, she stopped and looked over. Taking the chance, Rowan bypassed Claire, rushed to Saskia, grabbed her arm, and dragged her off the fence.
"Argh!" Saskia exclaimed before realizing what was happening. However, she was safe.
Claire arrived. While panting, she dragged Saskia's arm to keep her balance. "Pak!" She slapped Saskia's face.
Claire used all her strength. Saskia saw stars, feeling dizzy.
Rowan gaped at the scene.
Claire shouted abuse, "Saskia Holt! Can you stop being so spineless?"
"Death cannot solve any problem. Even if it could, it should be Parker Stone to die. Why did you want to end your own life? Have you considered your parents?"
"Do you know how worried your parents are? I received your mother's call in the early morning. She cried desperately. After you die, what will they do? You ungrateful girl. I'll teach you a lesson."
While she cursed, Claire raised her hand again, seething with rage.
Rowan quickly grabbed her wrist. "Calm down, Claire."
Saskia looked miserable, her face full of tears. Covering her slapped, swollen cheek, she was in a daze while the river wind disheveled her hair, looking spiritless and frustrated. She couldn't answer her bestie's question but sobered.
Claire darted Rowan, putting down her hand. After taking a deep breath, she dialed Saskia's mother's number. "Hello, Mrs. Holt. I found Saskia. Don't worry. She's fine."
"Really? That's great! Thank you, Claire. Where are you now?" the woman burst into tears joyfully on the other end of the line.
"I gotta go," Claire replied, "I'll drive her back to your house later."
After ending the call, Claire dragged Saskia's arm. "Let's get out of here!"
Saskia didn't struggle as she was too upset. She felt her heart being torn into pieces. Each second seemed to be torture for her, and she was like a walking dead.
In Rowan's eyes, Claire was extremely rude at this moment. She forcibly dragged her bestie down the steps.
