Like five iron tongs, Jeff's five fingers pressed tightly on her scalp.
The man's ethereal voice sounded in her ears as if it was coming from a far away place, "Close your eyes, empty your brain first. Don't reject me. Yes, that's it..."
......
Nell felt that she was in a very strange place.
There was a vast expanse of white all around as if she had entered a mysterious world surrounded by mist.
She was the only person in this world. She walked forward blankly, and suddenly stopped when she felt like she had kicked something.
She looked down only to find that it was a person.
The man was seriously injured, and his white shirt was soaked in water. Bright red blood seeped out on his back, staining the surrounding water with blood.
"Save...save me..." the man said hoarsely.
Nell looked around but saw no one else. She squatted down to help him up. However, when she got closer, she could see his face clearly and was shocked.
Jeff? Why was it him?
No, that was not right!
What was this place? She…No, where was her belly?
Nell suddenly realized that everything in front of her was not real. It was just an illusion. In other words, it was the memory that she had lost.
For no other reason, you could tell by just looking at the flute playing outside. There was seawater splashing against the ship and making a rustling sound, which meant that they were on a cruise ship now.
‘Could I have been here when I met Jeff?’
Nell came back to her senses.
At this time, she did not care about other people as she quickly helped him up and walked out.
The sun was shining brightly outside. It glistened brightly above people’s heads, and with its dazzling light reflected against the sea, she could not help but close her eyes.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden swish.
When the gunfire exploded, she felt her body tilted. She was crushed to the ground by the person next to her, therefore escaping the blow.
Turning pale with fright, Nell heard Jeff’s hoarse voice, "Help me to the bottom cabin where there’s a yacht. You can leave by yacht."
Nell nodded. She did not know why she wanted to listen to Jeff, but at this time, it was obvious that the cruise ship was already in chaos.
There were gunshots everywhere. Just by listening to the sound, one could discern that those guns were equipped with silencers. Obviously, these people were trying to kill everyone without leaving a single person behind.
If she did not leave quickly, both she and Jeff would inevitably die here.
Nell gritted her teeth and helped Jeff to the bottom of the cabin. He instructed her to put the yacht down. After Nell did so, Jeff used the ladder to get on the yacht.
However, at this moment, a man's cold voice came from behind, "Don't move!"
She stiffened as she turned her head and saw a familiar face.
No, more specifically, that was not a face she was familiar with.
That was because although they had the same facial features and the same figure, their behavior was completely different.
She would never forget Gideon's gentle and handsome appearance when he was with her.
However, the man in front of her was cold and yawning, like an eagle lurking in the dark, staring at her sharply. In just one glance, she just felt as if the tip of her heart had been pierced, which made her not dare to look at him directly.
