Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277 The Corpse

The sea was turbulent, and Jamie could not find her.

Without any hesitation, he crossed the railing and was about to jump down. But he was grabbed by Jack who had just come.

“Mr. McBride, you can’t jump like this! If Ms. Robbins fell in the wrong place, she would hit the stone…”

Jack didn’t finish his words. He wanted to say that it was meaningless to save her.

Because Ellen would definitely die.

“Let go of me!”

Jamie’s look was as ferocious as a devil, and his voice was heart–wrenching.

The depth of the deep sea was bottomless. Jamie felt that if he took action a bit late, Ellen would have less chance of surviving.

“Mr. McBride! It is Ms. Robbins’s plan!”

Jack had to tell Jamie the truth. “This morning, there was a huge sum of money in Mrs. Wolseley’s hospital account, enough to

maintain the cost of the next fifty years. It was Ms. Robbins who transferred the money.”

Was it not obvious enough? Perhaps when Ellen saw her mother yesterday, she had already had the desire to die.

In an instant, Jamie’s blood stopped flowing.

Ellen had already made up her mind….

She would rather die than stay by his side.

In a split second, Jamie’s heart seemed to have been torn open by someone.

Inch by inch, the wound became bigger.

The pain spread from his heart to every part of his body, and he almost couldn’t bear it anymore!

In the darkness, there seemed to be a call coming from the deep blue ocean.

“Jamie… Jamie…”

Jamie felt that his heart had been cut by someone.

His mind went blank, and he could not stand steadily.

Jack held Jamie in time.

Jamie looked up. “If I can’t come up, bury us together when you find us.”

The next second, Jamie jumped down.

With a leap, his body was instantly swallowed up by the vast and boundless sea.

“Mr. McBride!” Jack cried out anxiously.

Then, Jack immediately found Marine Department and dispatched many yachts to search for them.

By the time Jamie woke up, it was already the next day.

Jamie was found by Jack and the people from Marine Department.

They searched the sea for nearly an hour. When they found Jamie, Jamie was already exhausted and sinking to the bottom of

the sea.

After Jamie opened his eyes, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Jack stopped him and said, “Mr. McBride, the doctor asked you to rest more.”

“I’m going to look for Ellen! Have you sent anyone to continue looking for her?”

Jack lowered his head, saying, “We have found Ms. Robbins.”

“Where is she?”

Jamie’s eyes, which had been soaked in the sea, were bloodshot. But they suddenly became bright when Jamie heard Jack’s words. Jamie stared at Jack and asked, “Is she in the hospital?”

Jack closed his eyes and said ruthlessly, “Ms. Robbins passed away. I’m so sorry for your loss!”

Clank!

Jamie staggered back and fell to the bed.

Jamie thought, is Ellen dead?

How is that possible?

Last night, she was still in the car with the thought of killing me. How could a living person be gone overnight?

Jamie’s eyes were bloodshot, and he lost consciousness. His voice trembled as he asked, “Where is she?”

Jack stammered, “Mr. McBride, I don’t think you should take a look. Ms. Robbins didn’t fall into the sea. She fell to some rocks.

We could no longer identify her face.”

When the body was sent to the funeral parlor, the staff refused to restore it.

The damage was too severe. And one leg was lost. It might be dragged away by an animal.

Jamie felt heartbroken. He said firmly, “Take me there now.”

On the way, Jamie’s expression was the same as usual.

He was very calm.

Ellen’s smiling face flashed through his mind, and he could not accept the fact that she had died.

Even though Jack had already confirmed that the damaged clothes and belongings were indeed what Ellen wore that day, Jamie

still could not believe it.

Jamie always felt that perhaps Ellen hid somewhere because she didn’t want to see him.

He wanted to see her corpse if she died. And if she was still alive, he would find her.
