chapter 1926
Coco did not stop at just this. Seeing that Chris was going to leave, she reached out to push him back. "I'm talking right now; this is the truth! Why do you want me to shut up?"
Chris staggered backward due to Coco's push. After regaining his balance, he glared at Coco angrily. "Don’t make me hittouch you!"
Coco was not intimidated by Chris' sharp glare. In fact, she was not affected at all and continued to push him multiple times. "What now? I’m just saying facts. You're worried that your step-mommy is going to leave you? I'm just telling the truth. I want to tell you that she’ll leave you one day! She'll punish you and beat you! Hahaha!"
She even stuck out her tongue to trigger him further.
Slap!
Chris reached out and slapped Coco’s hands away from pushing him. He glared at her. "I said, shut up! My Mommy isn't this kind of person!"
Coco may insult him, but not his Mommy!
Coco, after having been slapped, felt a stinging pain that seared across her arm, rendering her speechless and stunned as she stared at Chris incredulously.
Did he just hit her!? Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
She was practically born like royalty, and her parents had never beaten her since young! How dare he beat her?!
Coco glared at him with a venomous stare. "Chris Bailey, how dare you hit me! You're just an illegitimate wild child that nobody likes!"
With that, Coco mustered every bit of her strength and shoved Chris forward, causing the boy to stumble backward aimlessly.
Failing to react in time, Chris staggered and fell right into the pond by the side!
The water splashed onto Coco.
Despite being a brat, Coco paled at the sight of Chris falling into the pond, and she had no idea what to do.
The maids had heard the commotion and spotted two hands reaching out from underwater. Gasping, they instantly ran toward the pond, and they became terrified upon knowing that it was Chris.
The water was a few meters deep, and nobody dared to dive in. Some of them phoned for help, while some cried for help, i "Help! The young master is inside the pond!" "Please come and help the young master!"
On the balcony of the second floor, Derek smoked as he watched over the backyard.
He acted as if he saw nothing. As the smoke shrouded his face, his gentle face sported a heartless smirk, i
As long as Anthony had no children, the entire Bailey family would belong to him, Derek Bailey!
Charmine was greeting the guests in the living room and was the first to hear the cry for help.
Among the noises, she sharply heard the word, 'young master.'
Her heart clenched and she instantly put down everything at hand before rushing toward the scene, leaving behind confused guests, bewildered at how she sped like an arrow shot.
After Charmine ran out of the backyard, she saw the maids crying for help. She then saw the two hands reaching out from the pond.
Her heart leaped to her throat.
She ran even quicker like a gust of wind.
Splash!
She instantly jumped into the pond that was a few meters deep, no hesitance detected in the way she dove to help Chris.
However...
After pulling Chris for a while, she felt something locking her foot that made her unable to move.
Disregarding her wellbeing, she willed herself to raise Chris out of the water. She tried her best to get closer to the side of the pond.
Luckily, the maids were there to reach over to get Chris out of the pond, and it was only then that Charmine felt relieved.
Charmine then backed away to inspect her foot that seemed to be held down by something. She was shocked when she noticed a metal chain holding her back.
Coincidentally, the chain locked her ankle, and the chain was pressed down by a giant stone!
Charmine frowned. She felt the chain on her ankle and realized...that the chain was locked.
There was nothing to loosen it!
Without much of an option, she tried to shove off the giant stone. However, it was the rockery on the pond, and it must have weighed a few hundred kilograms.
Charmine just could not move it however hard she tried to.
