Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 618

"Oh! Mr. Roman, please let go of Mr. Xavier!"

At that moment, Hera and Gemma heard Talia's voice coming from the back gardens, followed by what sounded like two people falling into the water.

Talia immediately screamed, "Help! Mr. Xavier and Mr. Roman have fallen into the water! Help!"

"Xavi!" Gemma heard the screams for help and hurried toward the back gardens. Even Hera sped up to follow her as well.

There was an artificial lake in the back gardens, and Talia was anxiously yelling for help by the lakeside. Seeing the two approaching, she quickly exclaimed, "Ms. Killian, Mr. Xavier has fallen into the lake!"

Roman and Xavier were entangled while struggling in the water. Whenever Xavier managed to get his head above the surface, Roman would pull him back underwater.

By right, the Killian residence should have security patrolling the grounds. In such a desperate situation, the security should have arrived within three minutes. No one knew why there was no sign of them today.

Meanwhile, Gemma watched anxiously from the shore. "Where's the security? Why aren't they here yet?" While speaking, she wished fervently that she could jump into the water to save Xavier.

Hera held Gemma back. They watched Xavier's struggles grow weaker, and he slowly began to sink as no one was there to rescue him. Thus, Hera put her bag down and dove into the lake.

"Ms. Youngworth!" Talia yelled fearfully. She finally sighed in relief when she noticed that Hera could swim.

Hera swam quickly toward Roman and Xavier. While Roman was still struggling, Xavier had already taken gulps of water and was sinking. Hera took a deep breath before diving downward to bring Xavier back up. She would not let him die.

The water's resistance was rather strong. It took Hera all of her strength to pull Xavier, who was taller than she was, to the surface.
