    Amelie was examining the marks on the ground when she sensed a shadow charging at her from


    behind. She instinctively darted to the side, falling to the ground. Before she knew what had happened,


    a shriek rang out from beside her.“Aah!”When she turned around, all she could see was someone


    falling off the cliff. So, she stared at the ridge for a while, dazed, before a realization hit her. Then, she


    jerked her head up, looking around for Jodie. Where’s Jodie? Could she have fallen off the cliff?Boom!


    Suddenly, her face contorted in terror as a loud boom resounded in her thoughts. She instinctively


    peered over the cliff’s edge in search of Jodie.She looked down the cliff and saw a collection of


    trampled, withering nts. They all exhibited signs of impact marks, but she couldn’t see through to


    assess Jodie’s condition. Nheless, Amelie didn’t give any thought to pausing before leaping to her


    feet and sliding down the slope until she reached the bottom of the ravine. After making a few wrong


    turns, she eventually located the pond Jodie had fallen into.As Jodie fell, the forest’s vines caught her


    and cushioned her fall, so she didn’t go straight into the pond. Still, with the vines around her waist, her


    head was submerged. She could not raise her head, so she had no choice but to continually struggle,


    which made both her and the vines sway and jiggle. Moreover, she would drown if left in that


    position.Meanwhile, Amelie was horrified when she saw that.Jodie, on the other hand, was suffering


    horribly. It’s unfair that I have to go through this when I only want to push that woman off the edge. The


    vines had entangled her from head to toe, and she had no way of freeing herself. Her entire body was


    sending out waves of fear and pain while her head was submerged, and all she could do was scream


    for help. Before she could say anything, her mouth was filled with ice-cold mountain water.She


    coughed and choked to get the water out of her mouth, but she couldn’t, so it came out her nose


    instead. Soon, she felt her lungs expanding to their breaking point as the pressure on them increased,


    and she struggled to catch her breath. As a sheltered kid raised in luxury, she had never encountered


    such a situation. At that point, she was afraid and could only il helplessly in the water.Standing in the


    narrow space nearby, Amelie could tell the danger Jodie was in within a few seconds. Jodie was


    hanging over a deep pond with blue waters that glistened in the cold light below, but Amelie could not


    see to the bottom of the pond. With a single nce, she felt chills run down her spine.Still, she took a


    deep breath and plunged into the water. As soon as she entered the water, the chilling temperature


    engulfed every cell in her body. The temperature of the water was considerably lower than she had


    anticipated.Within seconds of entering the water, Amelie felt the chill permeating every part of her body.


    Her entire body felt as if it were being pricked by a thousand tiny needles, and every square inch of her


    skin ached. Since every stroke required extra effort, she struggled to get through it. Nevertheless, she


    managed to swim over to Jodie and got her head above water.Then, Jodie began coughing violently


    when her head was lifted, causing her to spit out mouthfuls of water.Amelie was about to instruct her on


    what to do next when Jodie suddenly burst into tears. As she struggled, she sobbed, “It hurts! I want


    out! I want to get out of here now! I don’t want to spend another second here.”She then wrapped her


    arms around Amelie’s shoulders, trying her best to use Amelie to raise herself higher and away from


    the water. Soon, Amelie’s weight had dramatically increased. Amelie was already struggling due to the


    severe cold of the water, but Jodie’s actions didn’t help. Eventually, Amelie’s entire body sank, and the


    water rose above her chin and mouth. If this continues, we will both drown. Then, Amelie screamed


    and shouted to snap Jodie back to her senses.Nheless, Jodie had lost all rationality and could not


    comprehend anything she heard.As Amelie sank lower and lower, Jodie’s anxiety grew, and her grip on


    Amelie’s throat tightened until she was effectively strangling and choking her.Amelie’s lungs felt


    increasingly suffocated with each passing minute, her head became heavier, and her strength


    dwindled. Even though she was weak from suffocation, her survival instincts kicked in, and she


    mmed a fist into the back of Jodie’s neck. With Jodie out cold, her hand dropped from Amelie’s, and


    shey there motionless.After a few deep breaths, Amelie realized she could not swim out of the pond


    while dragging an unconscious Jodie behind her. Then, she reached over and grabbed a nearby rope,


    made a loop with it, and ced Jodie’s head in the sling. Later, Amelie tied the rope around Jodie’s


    waist, securing it to the tangled mass of vines so that Jodie’s head would not sink back into the water.


    Following that, she swam back to the shore and stumbled along the path for help.Before she could get


    very far down the path, she came upon Fabian supporting a hobbling Fiona.As soon as he learned that


    Jodie had been hurt, he promptly set Fiona down and grabbed a few twigs to cushion a spot on the


    floor before assisting her over to it. “Wait for me here. I’ll be back soon.”Standing beside them, Amelie


    saw that his hand was bleeding. While Fabian did note from a wealthy background, he did have


    silky skin as an actor. There were scratches over his hands from working so quickly to bend those


    twigs.Meanwhile, Fiona noticed it as well, and pain shed through her eyes, but she turned away.


    “Hurry. Don’t let anything happen to Miss Alston.”“Okay.” Before he followed Amelie off the cliff, he shot


    Fiona onest look.They heard a loud wail from below shortly after reaching the cliff’s edge. Amelie’s


    heart raced when she realized Jodie was awake, and she sped up her pace out of concern that Jodie


    would struggle too hard and drown herself again.When she reached the pond’s edge, she realized


    Jodie was no longer suspended above it. With a sinking feeling, she hurriedly entered the water.Jodie


    was a delicate woman born and raised in luxury. After being hung there for so long, she might be hurt


    after falling into the water due to exhaustion.There was nothing to be seen but the eerie green water,


    and Amelie’s heart skipped a beat at the sight of the ripples dancing across the surface. There was no


    time to think as she immediately dived into the water.A hand shot out and stopped her. “Miss Alston


    isn’t here. She’s over there!”From behind her, Fabian pointed to the shore across the pond.She looked


    up to find Jodie sobbing hard while sitting on a boulder on the shore. Sitting next to her, although at a


    distance, was Leo.Jodie had her arms wrapped tightly around her brother while he gently patted her


    back. The two of them werepletely soaked. Evidently, he had jumped into the water to save


    her.Meanwhile, ke was standing behind the two of them with pursed lips. Worry tinged his


    handsome face. His hair stuck to his skin as the water rolled down his cheeks. His clothes were


    simrly soaked.Then, Amelie and Fabian walked over to the trio.“Are you okay, Miss Alston?” Fabian


    politely asked.When Jodie heard his voice, she looked up.The moment sheid eyes on Amelie, she


    pointed an using finger in her direction. “Leo, it’s him. What you see before you are the wicked


    woman who shoved me off the cliff and nearly drowned me.”
