Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 261

There were a lot of people passing us by. They were heading towards the rafts, and all I could do was hold on to Christopher’s hand and follow the crowd. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

I made sure that Lyle and Crystal were on their way as well before following Christopher ahead. He seemed to know the ship fairly well and quickly found a raft. He immediately released it and threw it onto the sea before reaching out to me.

As soon as I reached out, someone shoved me aside and jumped into the water, heading straight for the raft. Nevertheless, Christopher demonstrated some Herculean strength as he pulled the man back and threw him on the floor before jumping in with me, pushing me towards the raft.

I was actually afraid of the water as I had a few traumatizing experiences, but our lives were at stake, so I actually forgot all about it and swam for it

Eventually, I got my hands on the raft and climbed onto it with Christopher. But it was not over. More and more people started climbing into the raft. The maximum capacity of a small raft like that was six, so it looked like we were about to tip over.

The man that pushed me also got on, took a knife out of nowhere, and lunged towards me. Christopher noticed it and quickly shielded me as the knife stabbed into his abdomen.

“Christopher!” I wrapped my hands around him. But before I could say anything, the raft capsized, and everyone fell into the water. Christopher’s blood dyed the sea red, and I could feel that he was slowly

sinking. Even the rope tying us together was getting loose, so the only thing I could do was hold on to him with all my strength.

Right then, the capsized raft floated towards us, like a sign from heaven telling us it was not our time to die. I quickly pushed Christopher onto the raft. And just when I was about to get on myself, someone grabbed my leg.

“Christopher Lane, if I can’t kill you, I’ll take your woman instead.” John appeared out of nowhere and dragged me back into the sea. He laughed menacingly and shoved my head under the water.

I was completely caught off guard, unable to move from the amount of force he was using, and took a few gulps of seawater as I struggled to break free. When I did, he would push me down right away. That said, I still noticed Christopher jumping in and kicking John away with my blurred vision.

“Get on the raft, quick!” Christopher grabbed me and swam towards the raft once again. I was gasping for air when I eventually got on the raft. “Give me your hand!” I reached out to him.

Nevertheless, John was persistent. He ignored the pain in his wound and swam over, punching Christopher where he got stabbed. It was a critical hit, and Christopher lost all his strength. His hand slipped out of mine.

“Christopher!”

“Just go, leave me!” Christopher dragged John into the sea as he shouted.

“No! I’m not leaving you!” I cried out, trying my best to grab hold of his hand, but he was dragged further and further away.

“Hahaha. If you want me dead, Christopher, you need to come with me as well!” John was completely insane at that point. He had forgotten all rationality as he wrapped his arm around Christopher’s neck.

No matter how much Christopher hit the wound on his chest, John would not loosen his grip. Christopher tried choking him but to no avail. The two were caught in a deadlock and were slowly sinking. Only their heads can be seen.

“Eve. Go.”

“No! I’m not leaving you! If we die, we shall die together!” I stood up on the raft and dive into the sea, allowing the cold to engulf me once again. My whole body started shivering as my feet froze up.

“Yvonne Tanner. Don’t do this!” Christopher roared. “Get back on right now. If not, we’re done!”

“So be it! We’re not surviving this anyway! You can’t get rid of me that easily!” I struggled in the water for a brief moment but found my bearing soon after and swam towards them. By then, both of them were fully submerged.
