Chapter 299
Though Natalie was slow to realize Jacyntha’s scheme, she quickly came to her senses.
She’s not aiming for a cat fight, she’s trying to murder me!
Swiftly, Natalie’s swinging hands caught Jacyntha’s elbow, and she tightened her grip in order to stop the latter from pursuing her evil intention.
Astounded, Jacyntha did not expect Natalie to be so strong.
At that moment, her mind went blank. Her only desire was to stop Natalie from seducing Christopher.
With that determination, she struggled to jerk her hand free from Natalie’s grip.
The constant push and pull resulted in both the women becoming entangled. Soon, an untoward accident occurred.
Jacyntha tripped over her feet, and her entire body went tumbling down from the rooftop
“Ahhh…” Along with a shrilly yelp, she felt her body becoming lighter and lighter…
Sh*t, I’m going to die here!
Suddenly, Jacyntha felt a powerful force seizing her arm and hindering her from entering into a state of free fall.
She looked up and gasped in disbelief.
It was Natalie grasping her wrist.
She could not believe that Natalie would save her after all that she had done to her.
“Why… why do you want to save me?” she asked under her breath as she stared at the hand clasping tightly on her wrist.
“What do you mean why?”
Yes, I dislike her. Though she abhors me to a point that she wants to kill me, I can never bring myself to do the same to her. There are many ways to vent my hatred against her, but leaving
her to fall to her death isn’t one of them.
At such a critical time, Natalie had no time to waste on Jacyntha. She spat, “What are you doing? Hurry up and hold on to me! Did you want to die this way?”
At that instant, Jacyntha finally snapped back into her senses.
Her will to stay alive had never been stronger.
