Chapter 409


    "Since it has nothing to do with us, we''d better find something else to do. I have a feeling this


    banquet will not end until midnight and it''s only eight o''clock now. Besides, there are some people I


    really don''t want to meet," Jenna said with a smile as she satzily.


    "Well, let''s go." Hannah also stood up, but her eyes were darting around.


    "Hey, since we''re together, you can''t go looking for a man." Jenna reminded her.


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about." Hannah was still looking elsewhere. "Let''s take a look at


    the boat over there."


    Several small boats were docked by theke, and some people had already taken them for a spin.


    The two of them walked towards that direction.


    "Would you like to get on?" Hannah asked as she took a look at the boats.


    "Forget it. With you being so distracted, I''m afraid we might drown." Jenna expressed her worries


    and thought of something else. "Is Rayan going to be here today?"


    Hannah''s face turned red instantly upon hearing Rayan''s name. "I really can''t hide anything from


    you, can I? He will be hereter. His flight has been dyed."


    Surely enough, the reason she was distracted was because of Rayan.


    "Well, since Rayan ising, I won''t be third-wheeling. Go to him as soon as he arrives," Jenna


    said.


    Hannah didn''t refuse. At the moment, they stood by theke and looked up at the sky.


    They looked over as soon as they heardughtering from behind them.


    In an instant, Hannah said, "I''ll go first. Wait for me here." Then, she ran away like a gust of wind.


    There must be another wave of guests, including Rayan.


    Jenna gave a smile and shook her head as she watched Hannah leave.


    The neon lights made the surface of theke in the distance glitter, but in front of her, theke was


    like a ck hole, giving off a mysterious aura.


    A cold evening breeze blew, lifting her heavy gown. In an instant, Jenna was blown a few steps


    closer to theke by the cold breeze.


    Panic and terror engulfed Jenna.


    "That was close!" She thought.


    She muffled a scream. She took a few steps back as her heart pounded fast. She couldn''t move a


    muscle and the hair on the back of her neck stood stiff.


    Faint footsteps came from behind.


    Jenna''s ears perked up, and her heart thumped.


    "Who''s there?"


    She looked back, but it was only the sound of the wind blowing on the grass. There was no one in


    sight.


    "Looks like it''ll be a while before Hannahes back. I better leave." She thought.


    This was horrifying.


    Jenna anxiously lifted the dress and was about to turn around.


    All of a sudden, she felt a pair of cold strong hands pushing her.


    "Ah!" She screamed as she fell forward. In desperation, she supported herself andnded on the


    grass.


    When she looked up again, the darkke was only an inch away from her face.


    "Who is it?" She bellowed as she tried to recover from the shock.


    The ghostly footsteps quickly disappeared, as if no one else had been there. She looked around


    with great strain.


    However, there was only grass as far as she could see.


    Jenna looked as if she had lost her soul, and her face was as pale as a ghost.


    "Was someone trying to kill her? That was horrifying!" She thought as goosebumps appeared on


    her skin.


    "Jenna." A deep and warm male voice called out to her.


    The man was dressed in a dark green, military uniform, and looked handsome and heroic in the


    darkness. His shoulder badge shone like the light of dawn lighting up the darkness.


    "Ser- Sergio," Jenna said softly as she came to her senses.


    It was indeed an unusual banquet. Even Sergio came all the way from Capital City. "Did he see


    anything?" She thought.


    Sergio helped her up and exined, "I saw a figure lying here in the distance. It looked like you, so I


    came over." He looked surprised but concerned.


    Even when Sergio tried to help her up, she was still firmly stuck to the grass. Jenna lowered her


    head and realized that her high heels saved her.


    Fortunately, she had changed into them. If she was wearing the original pair, she would be found


    dead at the bottom of theke.


    She was worried that she would fall, but little did she expect that it would save her life!


    "What''s wrong? Are you not feeling well? How did you end up here?" Sergio asked nervously, with a


    face full of concern.


    Jenna stood up, but the paleness on her face did not diminish.


    "You saw the whole thing, didn''t you, Sergio? Who was here just now?" She looked him in the eyes


    and asked. She had a hunch that the pair of cold hands were a woman''s as they were small. If it


    was a man, she might not have been able to survive the push.


    "What?" Sergio looked at her in confusion. "What''s wrong, Jenna? Saw what? You don''t look so


    good. Did something bad happen to you?"


    Sergio looked at her worriedly.

    "I''m fine." Jenna shook her head and sighed. She was upset yet was unwilling to give up. She


    asked, "Did you not see anyone leave just now?"


    "Just now?" Sergio thought for a moment and shook his head. "When I came over, I saw someone


    on the ground and it looked like you. So, I came and had a look. I didn''t see anyone else."


    "No one has been here? Impossible!" She screamed in her heart and shook her head.


    The person really pushed her hard. How could there be no one? However, it was dark here. It was


    also possible that Sergio could not see her in the distance.


    She finally calmed down after a long while.


    Forget it. If he didn''t see it, then she would not be able to get anything from him. She smiled bitterly,


    shook her head, and tidied her gown.
