The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 176

Suzanne found herself teetering on the brink of losing consciousness. It was as if she had been swallowed by an endless abyss of despair and fear. She trembled in the water, unable to catch a single breath.

In that fleeting moment, death loomed close, and Nathan's image flashed through her mind. Confronted with the specter of death, he was the sole anchor she clung to desperately.

In a startling twist of events, Sally abruptly released her grip, instead simulating a struggle as if she were drowning, her cries for help piercing the air. "Help!"

Suzanne faintly heard Sally's desperate pleas, followed by the sound of two splashes.

Her consciousness teetered on the edge as fear filled her, yet she persisted in her struggle, bobbing up and down in the water.

As she emerged from the water's surface, her hazy eyes caught a glimpse of Nathan's figure, carrying Sally toward the shore.

Was it an illusion? Why was Nathan here? Did he just save Sally?

The unsettling sensation of dread assured Suzanne that this was no dream. Nathan had returned, opting to rescue the drowning Sally over her, who could not swim. In that instant, Suzanne's heart turned cold.

Closing her eyes, she surrendered wholly to the struggle. Inch by inch, her body descended, suffocating in the chilling embrace of the water, the eerie weightlessness plaguing her in her final moments.

Suzanne found her head breaking the water's surface abruptly. She was lifted upward by a pair of large hands. In the haze of her consciousness, she heard Oliver's voice anxiously shouting, "Hold on there!"

But she had no desire to cling to life. Death appeared more appealing. Life was a burden too heavy to bear, too painful to endure, and she was uncertain how to confront the future.

In the inky blackness of the abyss, Suzanne felt weightless as she descended deeper and deeper.

Abruptly, a jolt shook her, and she felt her soul returning to her body. As her eyes snapped open, above her stretched the white ceiling tiles. Her gaze gradually shifted to take in the hospital surroundings.

There, she saw Nathan's solemn eyes, accompanied by Oliver by his side.
