Chapter 20: Drowned by the pool water
Facing Anne who was in front of him, Lauren's face was expressionless.
"Please get out of the way."
"Lauren, I'm warning you, stay away from Matthew and don't ruin my sister's happiness, or else ......"
"Or else what?" A sarcastic smile appeared on Lauren's face.
"Or you will kill me? Leo, don't think I don't know, last time you lifted the aphrodisiac from my body, but
you also made me suffer in bed for three days, so I won't give you any chance to hurt me again,"
Lauren's attitude was very tough, she had a feeling that Leo would appear in front of her when she
knew that Anne had arrived at the villa.
"Where do you plan to go?"
Lauren's assertiveness was a bit of a surprise to Anne, so he changed his tactics.
"Where I go has nothing to do with you, Leo, I'm not your sister, you don't have to put your so-called
concern on me, where I'm going, I don't need to report to you."
After saying that, Lauren pushed aside Anne Zhou in front of her and walked outside.
"Miss Li, where are you going?"
Lauren had just walked out of the door of the hall when a bodyguard with sunglasses stopped in front
of her.
"I want to walk in the courtyard, can't I. Matthew only told me not to go out of the villa. But he didn't tell
you to stop me from walking around the courtyard, right?"
Lauren looked at the bodyguard in front of her mockingly.
The bouncer made a gesture of invitation and let Lauren walk past him.
Without any hesitation, Lauren walked straight towards the pool, not noticing, in her anxiety, Leo, who
had been following closely behind her.
When she arrived at the pool, Lauren took off her shoes and jumped into the pool, looking for the
earrings that Matthew had thrown down.
Although the bottom of the pool is very clear, but in such a large pool, looking for a small earring, really
is not an easy thing.
Especially since Lauren's time is limited, she must find the earring before Matthew returns, or she won't
have that opportunity again next time. Maybe Matthew will have someone lock her in the room.
As he watched Lauren jump off the pool, Leo, standing around the corner behind him, had guessed
what she was up to. He already knew about the earrings from his baby sister's mouth.
The corner of Leo's mouth raised a wry smile, took out the cell phone in his arms, and plucked
Matthew's phone directly.
He wanted to use the knife to kill the man Lauren loved and destroy herself with her own hands.
Matthew, who received the call, returned to the villa as quickly as he could.
"Where is she?"
Matthew, with anger radiating around him, came to Leo's face.
Leo pointed to the pool.
"In it, it seems to be fishing for something that her ex-boyfriend gave her. It seems that this thing, in her
mind, is really too important, otherwise she wouldn't have bothered to stay in the water for so long. It's
almost half an hour."
Leo faked a glance at the time on his wrist.
Matthew's eyes shot out two murderous looks. In the eyes that were so cold that there was not a trace
of temperature, you could see the hell that was full of bloodshed and killing.
He stopped paying attention to Leo and walked straight towards the pool.
"Lauren, you better come out now, or I will immediately let you drown here and never come out again,
and this pool is your burial place."
Lauren, at the bottom of the pool, was concentrating on finding her earrings below. Suddenly, she
heard a roar from Matthew. The momentary shock made her swallow several mouthfuls of water at
once, choking her, and she immediately looked up from inside the pool.
When she saw Matthew standing at the edge of the pool with an angry look on his face, Lauren froze
on the spot and her body fell backwards into the pool uncontrollably. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Without any preparation Lauren swallowed several mouthfuls of water, the water instantly soaked into
her body, choking her half a day did not reveal her body from the pool.
Matthew, who had been waiting at the poolside for half a day, felt that something was not quite right
when he didn't see Lauren, and his anxiety and fear instantly soaked into her brain.
He didn't even think about it, even without taking off his shoes, he jumped into the pool, standing on the
side of the Leo also did not expect that Matthew would make such a reaction, which gave him a shock,
it seems that this Lauren in Matthew's heart occupies a position higher than he thought.
Matthew searched under the pool for a long time before he saw Lauren who had fallen to the bottom of
the pool. He hurriedly swam to Lauren's side, fished her up from inside the pool and quickly swam to
the shore.
"Lauren, you can't die. No one can take you away without my permission."
Matthew put Lauren down flat and helped her do artificial respiration, trying to squeeze out the water
she drank into her stomach, but time passed, and Lauren still didn't have any response.
This is the first time, Matthew felt what is called fear.
"Leo, come on, hurry up! You quickly get Lauren back!"
Matthew, who had no way out, pulled Leo, who was watching, over to the side.
"Let me save her also can, but you have to promise me one thing, or you will wait for the doctor to save
her, but I have to remind you, wait for the doctor to come but it will take some time, by then this woman
may not have any hope of saving."
"You're threatening me?"
At this moment Matthew's clothes were soaked through, but it had no effect on his image. His eyes
shot out two angry glares.
"You can choose not to accept my threat."
Leo said calmly, for the sake of his sister, he did not hesitate to make an enemy of his good brother, his
good friend.
Looking at Lauren, who was lying on the ground with a pale face, Matthew felt his heart, as if he was
pricked by a needle.
"Say, let me promise you something? Leo, sooner or later, I will make you pay for the threats you made
today."
Leo's face lifted up with a smug smile.
"I want you, no matter what, not to do anything to make Anne sad, or anytime I will make this woman
disappear from the world, you should know what I am capable of."
Matthew snorted coldly. His sword eyebrows were slightly raised, chilling.
"If you are not my friend, I promise to destroy you now, and if your sister is not my savior, and if her
legs had not become mobility impaired from saving me, I promise to destroy you completely. Now go
save her right now, and if there are any consequences for her, I promise I will immediately throw you
out of here into the pool and let you experience for yourself what it's like to be underwater."
Matthew's eyes were like a poisonous snake lurking in the lush grass, his sharp gaze locked on his
target at all times, waiting to give it a bite.
Leo was also frightened by Matthew's fierce gaze and hurried to Lauren's front, taking out the
professional means of a doctor. To Lauren to start the rescue.
