My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1560

The water was already at Nicole's neck by then. She attempted to kick the door open, but she just could not do it. Seeing that, she had no other choice but to stick her face close to the roof of the car and draw a few deep breaths as she waited for her last chance.

And when she noticed that her earpiece would soon be submerged in water, Nicole murmured, "Jared, I'll see you later."

"Definitely!" Jared nodded as he heard the sound of water rushing in.

Jared could only imagine what Nicole was going through. However, the only thing he could do now was to floor the pedal. Yet, that would not be able to get him next to her in time.

With the entire car being filled with water by now, Nicole took a deep breath and dived into the water, and at the very last second, she managed to throw the door open.

Then, she immediately began to swim to the surface of the water with all her might.

The car sunk to the bottom shortly after, but Nicole tried her best to escape the water with just the one breath that she had drawn in the car anyway.

However, the speed at which she was swimming upward was way slower than the speed in which the car had fallen.

One stroke became two, two became thirty, and thirty became forty. Her lungs were running out of oxygen, but all she could do was keep swimming.

However, no matter how much she swam, she just could not get out of the water, even though she could see the light shining through the surface.

Then, as she felt herself being asphyxiated, she let out a cough. As soon as she did so, she choked, though she continued to hold her breath. At this rate, she might really die of drowning. Her range of motion began to decrease, and so did the speed at which she was rising.

After a few second, she realized that she could hold it in anymore. She opened her mouth, and that was when she choked again.

This time, however, she gave in, and just like that, water rushed into her lungs, causing her to feel as if they were burning as she began to sink.

With that, her vision began to become blurry.

All she could see was a ray of light beaming down onto her.

'This is it...'

And sadly, this could really be it for her, but what about Jared? She swore that she would keep herself safe. They had also promised each other that they would never live alone if either of them died.

Nicole struggled for one last time as her consciousness began to fade, but the surface was simply too far away.
