President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 239

I stumbled back and fell off the ship.

My body was falling fast!

A second later, water splashed around me!

I was flustered in an instant. My mouth was full of water.

I couldn’t die here!

Thinking of the baby in my stomach, I tried to calm down and hold my breath quickly. I adjusted my gravity and floated myself. I swam slowly to the lifeboat.

This lifeboat really had very little gas, as Ward said.

I managed to climb up and looked up at the yacht.

At this point I saw that it was completely on fire.

And I didn’t see Molly at all!

“Molly!” I had a bad feeling.

I saw the fire burning and I couldn’t see Molly.

I couldn’t go up. I seemed to realize what happened.

I suddenly felt very painful, sad and desperate!

Although Molly was not good to me and even hurt me many times, we were twins.

Sometimes our feelings were interlinked.

For example, now all my feelings should be a smaller version of her feelings.

What was going on up there? She must be stuck in the cabin.

I stood on the lifeboat and looked up to see the yacht engulfed by the fire. The fire finally reached the point where the lifeboat was tethered.

The rope was burnt.

I could leave now.

But I didn’t know where to go. I was surrounded by an endless sea. If I went in the wrong direction, I would die as well.

I might as well row. Maybe a passing boat would see me.

I rowed the lifeboat a little further.

I waited quietly for the rescue.

At the moment, I even thought Molly would jump off it.

As time went by, I knew it was impossible.

After a long time, I felt my lifeboat sinking slowly. It would sink soon.

But I had nothing but sea water around me.

Ward knew long ago that we would fight on the ship and that both of us would probably die.

So he certainly didn’t let anyone save us.

He just wanted to give me a little hope and make us more energetic.

As I lay there and watched the clouds floating in the sky, I heard the alarm of a ship.

I quickly sat up and saw a yacht of the same model as the burning yacht not far away!

There was a man on the deck. He ran in quickly when he saw me.

Soon he came out again. He parked the yacht next to me and lowered the stairs. As I climbed up the stairs, I took a look at the burning yacht.

By this time it had sunk more than half.

I didn’t think I would see Molly again.

I got on this yacht. As soon as I got to the cabin, I saw Ming sitting in it.

He was obviously shocked when he saw me. Then he quickly stood up and looked out the window at the sinking yacht and asked, “is this your ship?”

“Yes.” I looked at him and was confused. I asked him, “Why are you here?”

Did Ward inform him?

Was he related to Ward?
