Chapter 349
Chloe suddenly remembered how Connor looked in the water just now.
It had only been two minutes since he had dived in, and he was already struggling, flailing around in discomfort and pain. She had to give him mouth- to-mouth resuscitation.
What was even more ridiculous was that after he got out of the water, he acted as if he was half-dead, so oxygen-deprived that he couldn't even move. In the end, it was Chloe who had to dress him.
But in reality, he was an expert in free diving, even more skilled than she was. His half-dead appearance was all an act! Just to take advantage of her!
A surge of anger rose from her heart to the top of her head.
"What's going, Chloe?"
Holding a seashell, Chloe huffed and puffed as she walked back.
Unexpectedly, after leaving the beach, she bumped into Connor, who had just come back from the woods. Chloe didn't even think. She strode towards him.
Connor looked at Chloe walking towards him, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. At this moment, Chloe's face was expressionless, making it impossible to discern her emotions. But her steps quickened.
Chloe walked straight up to Connor, grabbed his arm swiftly, turned around, and with force, executed a perfect judo throw!
Connor landed on his back, his brow furrowed, the shock in his eyes hadn't faded yet.
After throwing him, Chloe was still not relieved. She kicked him fiercely. Then, she dusted off her hands, took a deep breath, turned around, and left. All in one go.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Connor was utterly baffled. Chloe's throw was not light. He finally understood how Lucas felt when he was thrown over the shoulder last time. It felt like his bones were falling apart.
For the first time, he had a direct experience of Chloe's strength.
Connor lay on the ground, eyes closed, until Pax appeared beside him. "Unc...uncle... you're not dead, are you?" Pax's voice sounded uncertain.
He had just witnessed Chloe giving his uncle a fierce judo throw. Luckily, it was on the beach; otherwise, some bones would definitely have been broken.
Connor, frowning, got up, "I'm fine."
"How did you offend her? She was so harsh on you?"
Seeing Chloe's recent demeanor, Connor had already guessed a bit.
Connor dusted the sand off his arm, "Were you with her just now?"
"Yeah, I was chatting with her and watching the sunrise. I even dived to get her some scallops."
Connor's expression darkened further.
Pax scratched his head, "But when I mentioned that you taught me snorkeling, she changed her face." Connor's eyebrows twitched.
Pax still looked utterly perplexed, "I even complimented you, saying you could free dive for eight minutes in the sea, and she just stormed off after hearing that."

Dawn broke quickly. The third day of the deserted island journey began.
Today, the production team didn't provide breakfast. Instead, a bunch of ingredients was air-dropped They also had four cooking stations set up on the beach.
Everyone had already guessed today's couple task.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before Lovebot came over to announce,
"Given that everyone's love affairs are not very active, the production team has arranged a new couple task for today, which is a cooking competition. Couples will be formed by drawing lots, and we hope that you can find the spark in each other's hearts through cooperation in daily life."
[The production team's antics are really something else. This isn't about shipping couples. It's about breaking them up.]
[Well, let them have their fun. Who can outdo you, Zev?]
