chapter 1758
Anthony stared at Charmine and instantly forgot why he returned home. He even forgot the headache that tormented him.
His gaze softened as he cooed, 'You're a sight to behold, my dear."
Charmine met his eyes, ones filled with adoration for her, and her red lips curved into a smile. "I've finished packing up. Do you have anything you want to bring?"
Anthony looked at her. "Having you is all I need."
Charmine was touched.
She was very much looking forward to this trip.
"Let’s go, then," she spoke, pulling at the suitcases.
Anthony nodded before he reached out to get her suitcases. He said, "Let me have these, my dear."
Instead of handing the suitcases to him, Charmine placed her small hand in his hand instead. She grasped at his hand and intertwined their fingers, saying, "Leave them to me. Didn't you say I'm all you need?"
Anthony looked at their intertwined fingers and felt all warm and fuzzy inside. 'Yes, my darling."
He held onto her hand tightly as they walked toward the village’s entrance, toward their car.
The car had a smooth drive from Mount Village to the nearby beach.
This was a hot spring vacation village, and Anthony had booked a room here last night.
Spotting a parking slot at the empty harbor by the sea, Anthony steered the car toward it, intending to park the car, but-
However hard he pressed on the pedal, the car shot forward like an arrow before he could even park. He could not stop the car at all.
Furthermore, the car began to pick up speed, getting faster and faster!
Charmine sensed that the brake was not working, but before she could do anything...
Fwoosh!
The car rushed off the harbor and plunged head-first into the sea. Half of the car was submerged in seawater.
People at the beach grew frantic at the mishap, running toward the sea as they shrieked and gasped. Photos were taken while some began looking for help.
"Something happened! Something happened!" "The car fell in!" "Hurry and call for help!" "Does anyone swim here? Help!"
Everyone cried for help, but in their frenzy, no one had any idea on what to do next.
Far away from the chaos...
Waverly was in her long sundress, sporting sunglasses as she leaned on the singing chair. A wine glass filled with red wine was in her grasp, one that she held nonchalantly and would sip.
She peered through her sunglasses as the car dove into the sea...and the sight pleased her so.
This was the price Anthony paid for manipulating and harming her.
He made her life so miserable, yet he tried to carry on with his life happily? 2
Not happening. They might as well die!
Meanwhile, inside the car that shot into the sea...
Fortunately, the car had only dived into the lesser deep part of the sea, one that was nonetheless a few meters deep. The car was, however, embedded into the soft seabed of silts and mud.
Charmine and Anthony, having sat at the front seats, were pushed down by water pressure and lurched forward.
Luckily, their safety belts pulled them back before their heads rammed against the glass.
The back of Anthony’s head slammed against the car seat, and blurred-out memories rippled within him.
He tried to turn the steering wheel, but it did nothing. He tried to recall whatever he could, but all he could feel was pain all over him.
Not having the energy to think, Anthony turned to look at Charmine and reassured her, "Don't worry, my darling. I’m here."
Charmine nodded, not wanting to worry him. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Anthony ignored his own wellbeing and unfastened Charmine's safety belt for her. Charmine, meanwhile, kept calm as she studied their surroundings.
They were submerged in seawater. They had to get out, fast!
She picked up the safety hammer by the side. With a loud crash, she smashed open the window, but it caused water to rush into their vehicle. Charmine looked at Anthony. 'You go first!"
