Chapter 110
He was heartbroken.
Anderson Clark was so upset as if his heart had been smashed with a hammer, the pressure in his chest was so suffocating, his face was pale, she couldn’t die!
There was only a thought in his mind.
Anderson lowered his head and kissed her icy cold lips. He blew air into her mouth bit by bit.
Johanna Scott stood there and was expressionless. All her fingernails were plunged into her flesh.
She underestimated Anderson’s affections for Catherine Johnson, she couldn’t believe that he would even risk his life for her. Catherine spit up a lot of salty seawater and slowly opened her eyes and saw a familiar face after a long time.
“Anderson,” she said. The voice was low and still sounded weak from drowning.
Anderson was stunned as he hadn’t heard her voice in such a gentle tone in a long time.
Anderson stopped for a few seconds before realizing the lady underneath him had living features, and in an instant, enormous happiness struck him, and his eyes nearly burst into tears.
“The doctor is coming. The doctor is coming.” Catherine had survived the disaster. Her life was saved.
“The CCTV at the location you fell happened to be broken, I’ve investigated the other camera and there was no sign of anyone was behind you,” Aurora Adams said as she went in haste into Catherine’s ward, she frowned.
“Catherine, are you sure that you were pushed? Are you sure about that?”
Catherine closed her eyes to recall what happened on that day and opened them with a strong affirmation, “I’m sure I was shoved the moment I was ready to turn around.”
“That’s weird,” Aurora said, scratching her head, “The person removed all traces implies that they might be premeditated but she couldn’t have calculated in advance that you would be standing there, which means that the damage of the surveillance camera was planned a long time ago, and if you had fallen in a different place, I bet it wouldn’t have been this surveillance camera that was broken.”
“Hmm,” She agreed. Aurora’s investigation result was as expected: “Stop the investigation, you would not get any answer.” It just liked the death of Owen Torres. Nothing was obtained after the investigation.
“Then you rest first, I’m leaving, Joseph Carter is still waiting for me,” Aurora moaned.
Catherine nodded.
Catherine laid in the cruise ship’s ward after Aurora had left, she stared out the window at the blue sky and the dolphins that sprang out of the sea every now and then with her mind running wild.
She suspected Johanna, but Johanna shouldn’t be able to destroy all evidence just yet.
The golden sunshine passed through the glass and shone in her face; certainly, it should have been a nice scene, but her gorgeous face remained aloof.
She was good-looking and her indifference added to her allure which could be appreciated distantly but could not be toyed with. Johanna stood in the ward’s doorway and stared at her aloofness with her eyes being filled with hatred
When Catherine spotted someone at the door as she glanced out the window at the dolphins leaping out of the sea, she asked without turning around, “You did this, didn’t you?”
Johanna burst out laughing “What are you on about, Catherine? I’m not sure what you’re talking about.” “Aren’t you sick of acting, Johanna?” Catherine didn’t even bother to glance at her.
Johanna was filled with wrath, but when she saw Catherine’s pale face, she rejoiced. She stooped slightly and murmured in Catherine’s ear, “What would it matter if I did it? Do you have any evidence?”
“When you came, I switched on the phone recording,” Catherine said, disgustedly turning her head and looking away from her with an indifferent face.
Johanna’s face became pale.
Catherine mockingly chuckled.
“Your phone has been drowned out, I know that,” Johanna said in response to Catherine’s conspiracy. “So, what are you still scared of?” “Sense of guilty?” Catherine said, looking out the window.
“You are the culprit to the car accident last time and the one who caused me to fall into the sea this time.” “One day, you will need to repay all this one by one,” Catherine said as she abruptly turned her head and stared ferociously at her.
“Don’t worry about it, Anderson is at my side, you are a person who can’t even defend your own kids and it’s impossible for you to revenge,” Johanna said with her heart palpitating while trying to stay calm.
Catherine was upset.
“You calculated and planned well,” she fought back, “but what a pity, I was saved by Anderson. Doesn’t this imply that he still has affections for me?”
Flashbacks of the scenario in which Anderson saved Catherine came across her mind, and she loathed it so much that she couldn’t speak.
“I’m going to seduce him. Wouldn’t he fall for me?” “Unfortunately, he is not up to my standard,” Catherine sneered.
The guy who had just entered the ward hesitated, his pupils were narrowing as he saw her disdainful and mocking smile. He was not up to her standard?
Did she like Ethan James?
Anderson had a frigid expression on his face; he was insane to save this woman!
Such an ungrateful woman.
Johanna was about to react when a cough sounded from the doorway, her words were swiftly swallowed back and turned to the door with a smile.
“Why are you out, you’re still sick with a cold.” Johanna excitedly approached Anderson. “I’m fine,” Anderson said with his chilly eyes fell on Catherine.
“Then don’t you infect Catherine.” Johanna gently handed Anderson a cup of warm water, saying, “I’ll Keep an eye on Catherine for you.”
“Go tell the nurse to relocate me to a bed in this room, I’m going to infect her with the flu,” Anderson said with his eyes firmly fixed on Catherine.
Such an ungrateful woman.
He wouldn’t have had a cold if it hadn’t saved her.
Johanna didn’t expect Anderson to say such a thing, and the smile she’d managed to force became stiff.
“Anderson, don’t joke about it, Catherine just got out of the seawater, it will be difficult for her to recover if she catches a cold again,” she said after a time.
“What I want is for her to be uneasy,” Anderson said pitilessly.
As she listened to their conversation, Catherine chuckled in her head.
The two were clearly discussing Catherine, but she stayed sideways, staring at the sea, like an outsider.
When Anderson stated he would stay in Catherine’s ward, he meant it.
He’d just been admitted to Catherine’s ward, and rumours had spread across the cruise ship.
Johanna was simply a joke after that, and she felt as if everyone was gossiping at her everywhere she went.
Catherine was irritated to be in the same room as Anderson.
Anderson’s belongings had just been moved there, she then granted the doctor permission to leave the hospital in the afternoon.
Anderson approached Catherine step by step after the doctor had departed, his long fingers lifted her chin, “What? Are you trying to avoid me?”
Catherine was compelled to tilt her head back and remained silent. “Aren’t you trying to seduce me?” Said Anderson coldly. The persistently forced tilting of her head was an extremely painful posture for her.
Catherine struggled and said coldly, “Anderson, did you not hear the second half of the sentence? If not, I’m happy to repeat it for you.”
“I’m sorry, but I’m not interested in you right now.” She spoke clearly, word by word as if Anderson could not understand.
“What a coincidence that the way you look, instead, sparked my interest in you,” Anderson said with his face coated with a covering of rage.
He bent over and moved closer and closer to her.
He kissed her on the lips so aggressively that she could not be refused. Her lips were forced open and her mouth was tantalized
Catherine fought back, but the more she fought, the harder he cinched her. Anderson’s heart was filled with rage, and he wanted to let it all out on her.
He wanted to have her desperately.
