Chapter 109 Cindy Was Offended
Kate struggled with all her might, but she was no match for her opponent. Catherine had no intention of hiding herself from Kate. She generously exposed her face to her so that Kate could clearly see her face underwater.
Kate’s respirator was removed, and it became increasingly difficult for her to breathe. She opened her mouth subconsciously and desperately as if trying to drink up the water in the ocean.
Her lungs were becoming more and more uncomfortable. The water made her lungs hurt almost to the point of exploding. She was scared. Looking at Catherine’s bloodthirsty eyes, she was so afraid that Catherine would kill her.
Because the look in Catherine’s eyes showed she was serious. Kate finally got scared and frantically begged for mercy. Under the dual effects of tension and fear, Kate soon fainted.
Looking at Kate, who was powerless and lying in her arms, Catherine sneered disdainfully, her eyes gazing at her coldly.
Catherine thought secretly, “Such a useless person! She fainted like this in less than three minutes after she lost the respirator?”
She plugged Kate’s respirator back in and dragged her to a crowded area before leaving.
It wasn’t long before Kate was found.
The program team was in a mess. No one expected Kate to have an accident.
As Kate’s boyfriend, Ryan was naturally the first to go to the rescue.
He immediately dragged Kate ashore, and with the help of the accompanying team doctor, Kate was out of danger.
After undergoing CPR, Kate came to life.
She was not in serious condition, mainly in a transient coma caused by fright and drowning.
The first thing Kate did when she woke up was to tug on Ryan’s hand and look at him in horror, saying, “Ryan, help me. Someone is trying to kill me.”
Facing Kate’s crazy talk, Ryan was also scared.
1/4
“Kate, what are you talking about? Who’s trying to kill you? What the hell just happened?”
Kate looked at Ryan with flustered eyes in panic, trembling nervously. “Ryan, it’s Catherine. Catherine, that bitch. She wanted to kill me.”
They were still in the shot, and everything had been recorded. Ryan thought Kate must be crazy to be bullshitting like that.
But seeing Kate’s nervous expression, she didn’t seem to be pretending, which made Ryan a
little confused.
Just as the crowd was confused, a sudden cheer came from the side.
The crowd turned back and found the boat of the other two groups had returned.
A few people came down from the boat, and it was obvious that the buckets carried in their hands were heavy. They should have harvested a lot. No wonder they were so happy.
When Kate saw Catherine step off the boat, she instinctively trembled.
But soon, she reacted to the fact that she was in full view of everyone, and Catherine would not dare do anything to her, so her attitude became arrogant.
She braced herself to stand up and rushed to Catherine.
“You murderer. You almost killed me. I’m going to call the police to arrest you.”
Before Catherine could respond, Audrey rushed up as soon as she could. She protected Catherine behind her and looked at Kate with a serious gaze.
“Kate, what do you want again? If there’s something you want to do, come straight at me. Don’t bully my sister!”
Kate glanced coldly at Audrey with a hint of disdain in her eyes. “You and your sister are not good people. Since your sister dares to put her hands on me, she must bear the price. She dares to go against me. Just wait to go to prison.”
She spoke too confidently. Ryan was worried that changes in things would have an adverse impact on Kate, so he took the initiative to explain the situation.
“Kate had an accident in the water just now. She said that Catherine was the one who removed her respirator and choked her, causing her almost to drown!”
Catherine was originally planning to come forward and admit it. She never needed to deny what she had done.
But Audrey was one step ahead of her again. Audrey reacted much quicker than her.
“Nonsense. Kathy has just been catching fish underwater, and these are the spoils she got. She has no time to go against you. On the contrary, it’s you who keeps playing tricks. Don’t think we’re all fools.”
Audrey angrily kicked the bucket by her feet, and the fish, still alive inside, kept fluttering.
Looking at the bucket full of seafood, Ryan didn’t believe that Catherine had the time to swim so far to persecute Kate either.
And Audrey wasn’t lying about one thing, which was that it was Kate who had been targeting them. Both Audrey and Catherine were compromising.
According to common sense, Catherine was unlikely to be able to take action against Kate.
The diver from the program team said, “Although we were a bit late in the water, we have seen. Catherine catching fish since we got into the water. It’s impossible for a normal person to
swim back and forth just by the little time we were late, let alone doing something to someone.
”
That was right. There was no way an average person could have made that.
Kate was furious. She looked at the crowd with a red face of anger, saying, “Why do you all speak for her? What benefits did she give you?”
Facing Kate’s accusation, the staff of the program team thought of Elliot, who stood by in silence.
“Elliot, didn’t you go into the water at the same time with Catherine? Did you see her do something to Kate?”
Elliot raised his head slowly, and his gaze fell on Catherine, who was silent and didn’t say anything.
After looking at her for a few moments, Elliot said in a low voice, “I was concentrating on fishing. I didn’t see anything.”
After saying that, he added, “I was fishing so seriously, but I haven’t harvested as much as Catherine did!”
The implication was that he had tried his best to capture fish but hadn’t caught as many fish as Catherine did.
So, Catherine couldn’t have had the time to commit a crime. And he meant what Kate said.
wasn’t true.
Catherine stood coldly in place, and the expression on her cold face did not change a bit. She only shifted her gaze from Kate to Elliot.
Was he helping her?
After hearing Elliot’s words, Kate immediately became angry and shouted at him, “Elliot, what benefits did this woman give you to make you help her like this? Why are you so against me?”
Ryan was scared when he heard what Kate said. Cindy was still standing at the side and had always treasured her son. How could she allow Kate to accuse her son like that for no reason?
Under Ryan’s reminder, Kate also realized that.
She raised her head nervously and looked toward Cindy. At that moment, Cindy no longer had her usual warm smile but a hint of harshness.
After seeing Kate look over, Cindy narrowed her eyes slightly. There was a hint of ferocity in her eyes.
“Ms. Cooper, my son said that he didn’t see anything. He just made a statement based on the facts he knew. To make his words not be considered a liar, does he have to say that Catherine caused
you to have the accident? You are too overbearing if you don’t even let others tell the truth.”
“L… I…” Kate’s face turned pale when Cindy said those words. The director of her next play was Cindy’s bosom friend. If she offended Cindy, her acting career might come to an end.
She was about to apologize, but Cindy did not give her a chance. “Ms. Cooper, I think you’ve caught a cold because you’ve worn too little underwater, and your mind is unclear now. You’re beginning to talk nonsense. I think you should go back to rest.
After speaking, Cindy glanced at the director. The director dared not disobey Cindy and immediately arranged for an assistant to persuade Kate away.
