"You're lying to me. You'll divorce me even if I let her go! You're determined to get rid of me and won't see me at all after you get the divorce decree!" Sean did not believe a word she said. Instead of being persuaded, he became angry again.
"You lied to me! You lied to me!" He roared fiercely. Alcohol seemed to have scrambled his brain and made him even more emotional. At this time, he was totally a demented person.
Emily was the closest to him, and her eardrums were buzzing as Sean yelled.
This was not very important. The key was that she thought Sean was suffering from some psychological problems. This idea simply made her even more afraid, and her heart was filled with anxiety. Emily feared that if he lost control of himself, he might really push her down...
"I don't believe it. You'll divorce me. You're dreaming of divorcing me, aren't you?" Sean's chest was heaving violently. He became so agitated that his face was distorted with fury and pain. With anger brewing in his eyes, he continued while excitedly waving his fingers. "You've never loved me! You love him! Even if you agreed to marry me and spent the honeymoon with me, you couldn't forget him! You can never forget him!"
As Sean finished speaking, he let out an irritable roar.
His left hand was pointing at them across the air, and he also raised up his right hand excitedly.
"AHHHHHH!"
A sharp female voice was heard.
It was not from Emily, but from Addy, who saw Sean's elbow accidentally hit Emily and push her into the river.
Emily did not have time to make a sound because she had fallen straight into the river with a plop.
When they walked on the broken bridge, Emily was very nervous. The river was really narrow and could only accommodate the two of them. Just now, when Sean was getting more and more excited, she became very scared. However, what she was most afraid of happened.
Just as Sean raised his right hand and hit her, she staggered, missed her footing, and fell.
In no time, the chilly river water poured into her mouth and nose, and Emily felt suffocated.
She was not afraid of water, and she knew how to swim...
She had a similar drowning experience in an interview four years ago. This feeling was really terrible.
Just as the river water engulfed her, icy streams twined her like serpents. Emily freaked out, thrashing around in the water. However, her hands were tied behind her so that she could not swim to reach the river surface.
She could not save herself only by moving two legs.
She began to sink.
She was descending down, deeper and deeper...
She was so weakened that she could not exert any strength to stop herself from going down. Finally, Emily was exhausted and had a sudden blackout. When surrounded by pitch darkness, she felt as if she had fallen into an abyss.
When she fell into the river, a loud sound was heard.
"Plop!"
With another very loud sound, Simon's tall and straight figure rushed over and jumped after her without hesitation.
He moved so fast that for a moment, the others did not know what had happened at all.
Sean, frightened out of his wits, froze on the broken bridge. With a stiff, ferocious look, he looked at the rippling river in disbelief.
Sean looked at his right hand and muttered in panic, "I didn't mean it! I didn't want to push her..."
