Chapter 1012 My Baby

With that, he took out another stack of bills from his bag.

Ann took one last glance at the money and climbed into the fish tank. The minute she entered the tank, the men shut the lid.

Dillan flopped on the couch and lit a cigarette to enjoy Ann's performance.

The fish tank was only one meter long, so it wasn't that big. Ann cowered and held her breath while someone else started the countdown. Someone started singing to liven things up. The other ladies came to Dillan and entertained him.

Among them, I was especially conspicuous. Someone spotted me and asked, “When did you come in again? Who are you? Why are you here?"

I grinned and replied, “I'm enjoying myself. This is too exciting not to watch!”

“Please leave!" Dillan uttered icily.

I scurried to him and said, “You must be Dillan, right? I'm so lucky to have run into you. Come, let's drink."

With that, I poured myself a glass and finished it in one gulp.

Initially, the man was confused, but he gradually relaxed. “Oh? You know who I am?"

I nodded profusely. “Of course. You're famous in A City, Dillan. Everyone knows who you are!"

As he was no longer suspicious, I glanced at Ann who was holding her breath in the fish tank. “Dillan, you're so adventurous, huh? I don't think that woman is good at holding her breath. It's too dangerous for her to hold her breath for five whole minutes." “Ha!" the man scoffed. “I'm not afraid. I've already paid for her life."

Ann was at her limit. Bubbles appeared in the tank as she struggled before opening her lips to breathe in. Alas, she only gulped the water down.

“Pfft, less than two minutes. That's no fun at all,” the man uttered disinterestedly. He glanced at Ann and forgot about me.

Seeing how Ann was struggling, I panicked instantly. However, I couldn't find a way to save her. I was pregnant, and any mistake would cause our lives.

If I insisted on saving her alone, I would be dragged into this mess as well.

At that thought, I held my phone tightly and prayed that Joseph would arrive soon.

“I don't think she knows how to swim," a woman sitting beside Dillan spoke worriedly.

Dillan gazed at a struggling Ann, his eyes shining with excitement. He ignored everyone else beside him.

Ann was about to drown, so I couldn't wait any longer. “Dillan, she's about to drown. Should we ask someone to release her?”

Dillan merely glowered at me. “Scram!”

At once, two men grabbed my arms and led me toward the door. I immediately yelled, “Get your hands off me? I called the cops before I came in. They will be here soon!”

Dillan glared at me menacingly. “You called the cops?”
