No matter how much she screamed and called, Stefan soldiered on, seeming as if he had no intention of turning back.
‘Fine! If you’re so tired of living then just die! If you die I won’t even cry a single tear for you!” Renee clenched her fists her chest tightening while she grew more and more furious at his recklessness.
‘God damn it Stefan Hunt! Do you have no one else you care about in this world?! Are you really willing to give up on everything for your first love?! Is she really that important to you?!’
It was also then that she finally realized that the cold man she once knew was actually quite loving. However his love wasn’t hers to dream of and she had no right to expect that from him.
Stefan was quite a skilled swimmer and was able to reach Cecilia within minutes. Using one arm he carried her back to shore.
Just as they were about to reach the safe zone a large wave came crashing down dragging the two backward.
Their figures were unable to be seen after that which meant that their situations were extremely critical.
’No!’ Renee was shocked to her core her mind turning blank as she switched into survival mode. All she could do was scream for help as much as she could.
Christopher and Xavier soon led a group of people over yet didn’t dare to take another step as they noticed the rough waves…
“Why are you just standing there? Save them! Hunt and Smith are both being carried away by those waves!” Renee sobbed profusely never feeling such despair in her life. i
If it weren’t to protect her children she would’ve just saved them herself.
The moment Xavier heard this he didn’t hesitate in the slightest intending to jump straight in only to be stopped by Christopher.
As the eldest in their group Christopher has always been the rational friend. With a solemn expression he said “We can’t send more people into these waves. Professionals on the rescue teams are already doing their jobs. So let’s just calm down and wait by the shore quietly. We have to prioritize our own safety first.”
“I can’t just calm down!” Xavier roared. “Stef is in there! Cecy is in there! I can’t just sit back and watch them die like a wuss!’
Renee felt as if she was going to lose it with the two arguing fiercely right next to her. Unknowingly she even started walking towards the direction where Stefan disappeared…
Although she had mentioned not sparing him a tear if he died she still wished for him to stay alive. She didn’t want her children to lose their father even before they were born.
“Miss Everheart! What are you doing? Come back!” Christopher instantly rushed over and grabbed Renee by the arm once he noticed her trying to dive into the water.
“The waves are too big and it’s just too dangerous! The rescue team is already doing its best okay? Let’s get back to shore now!”
“Renee’s face was pale as if she had lost her very soul. She stared back at Christopher with blank eyes.
Let go of me… I didn’t want to save them. I just wanted to take a look at his corpse… Never mind I just wanted to check it out. It’s not like l”m trying to save anymore.’
“I know you’re worried about Stef but we need to calm down at times like this! Stef wouldn’t want you to get hurt you know? He cares a lot about you!
’I’m not worrying about him. I just wanted to take a closer look! You don’t know this but I’ve always been a fan of gossip so let go of me… Let me see!!’
Renee seemed too panicky to make up a coherent excuse. Moreover the waves were crashing onto the lower half of her body and it made her seem like she wouldn’t be able to maintain proper balance if she stayed there any longer.
Having no other choice Christopher narrowed his eyes as he carried Renee bridal-style. As she tried to struggle out of his arms he awkwardly said” I’m sorry I have to protect you in Stef’s stead.”
’Let go of me! I know what I’m doing! I can take care of myself! I don’t need anyone’s protection!” Renee screamed loudly.
Even then she was worried she might affect her children’s well-being so she didn’t dare to struggle with all her might either.
’Stop moving. I can promise you that Stef will be just fine! He’s tough and a good swimmer too! He even won the championship of a diving contest before! He’ll be fine alright?”
Under the glow of the reddish-orange sun Christopher looked toward the woman in his arms with utmost certainty.
Noticing this Renee stopped struggling. Christopher’s sincere expression gave her a sudden sense of reassurance.
