My Billionaire Husband (Vivian and Morris) novel Chapter 107

The two men looked at each other and put their hopes on that tree.

The tree, however, was growing on the right side, also on the side of the masked man.

Vivian moved to the right, trying to give herself a chance to grab the big tree, since that might be the only chance to survive.

But the masked man is likely the biggest obstacle to her survival, and she must take her chances.

Both men leaned to the right, seeing that they were about to reach the tree, but because they were both on the right, increasing the resistance, the water rushed ferociously, causing the thick wooden pole to slope steeply into a vertical downward flow.

All of a sudden they were further away from that tree.

"I'm pulling you, you let go."

Vivian took the masked man's hand directly and told him to let go of the thick wooden pole and swim towards the river, even a little bit of struggle would be enough to win her chance of survival.

At this moment, Vivian had no choice, even if it was a ray of hope, even if the masked man might survive and then cut the rope, she had to fight for it.

Because ......

She didn't want to die!

The pair of eyes under the mask of the masked man gave Vivian a meaningful glance before directly releasing her.

The rope was tied between the two men and he fought to his right after he let go.

Ten meters ......

Six meters ......

Three meters ......

One meter!!!

The distance of ten meters was just a blink of an eye, but at the moment the masked man was still some distance away from the tree.

Vivian was so scared that her heart tense, and she was so nervous that she was afraid of missing another opportunity.

But in the nick of time, the masked man suddenly pulled out a dagger and held it tightly in his hand, and as he narrowly brushed against the tree, the dagger in his hand jabbed into the trunk of the tree.

Vivian immediately let go of the thick wooden pole she was holding, lest the overwhelming impact wash the masked man away with it, cutting off any chance of a final struggle.

The man, even though Vivian was putting pressure on him, reached out and clutched the thick wooden pole and climbed up little by little and managed to get out!

Vivian was still in the water, and with the strength of the rope, she tugged it little by little and crawled towards the masked man.

But the masked man raised the dagger in his hand, and with a flick of his hand, Vivian would be swept away with the river!

Her heart was pounding, never at any moment would she be so full of desire to live as she was at this moment.

Vivian didn't say anything and continued to swim towards him, seeing that he was close, but the dagger the masked man was holding up stabbed straight down.

In that moment, her heart went cold, as if she had already seen death.

But Vivian was not resigned, and at the last moment fought against the odds, reaching out and tugging, trying to hug the trunk, but still underestimating the impact of the water.

She was washed away another few dozen centimeters!

Was she, really, going to die here?

But at that moment, the masked man tugged her hand and pulled her over, and the two of them climbed up the tree that grew diagonally along the shore.

Exhausted, the two men lay on the shore, too tired to struggle any more.

Vivian, however, asked, "Why would you save me?"

The moment he finally stabbed his dagger down, she thought the masked man was going to cut the rope and send her plunging into the rushing river, but the man put away his dagger and reach out to tug her out of harm's way.

The masked man didn’t answer.

The two men just lay on the shore and waited until they had regained their strength before standing up and heading off into the distance.

"Who the hell are you?"
