Chapter 410

“Ah!” Monica staggered backward, nearly falling into the sea. The man caught her just in time. A sharp pain shot through her chest, and she glared at Jared, her eyes red with rage.
“Jared, you dare hit me? You’re asking to die.”
They exchanged a look and charged at him together.
Jared rarely worked out and was no match for them in a fight. He was quickly overwhelmed by Monica’s ferocity, her nails scratching at his face and eyes. Jared cried out in pain.
As he forcefully shoved Monica away, the man grabbed a piece of rebar from nearby and plunged it straight through Jared’s thigh.
“Ah… ugh The pain was so intense Jared almost fainted. He felt like he was dying on the spot.
The man yanked the rebar out, and Jared passed out from the agony.
Monica was shocked by his brutality.
With a loud splash, the man pushed the unconscious Jared overboard.
He watched Jared’s body sink, a cold smile on his face. “There are sharks around here. The smell of his blood will attract them quickly. Soon, there won’t be a trace of him left.”
Monica saw the ruthlessness in his eyes and suddenly felt a sense of danger. Would he kill her for the money, too?
Monica swallowed hard, watching Jared’s body disappear into the depths. “Let’s get the boat moving, quickly. We can’t let anyone see us, or we’ll both be dead.”
The man squinted at her, his eyes filled with murderous intent. A few million was enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.
Monica saw the look in his eyes and was terrified. She became guarded, her gaze fixed on the spot where Jared had fallen into the sea. She had miscalculated. Jared was the one who had treated her the best.
He was willing to spend money on her, willing to spend time with her.
If she wanted ice cream at two in the morning, he would go to a 24-hour convenience store to buy it for her.
When she had cramps, he would make her hot milk and gently soothe her to sleep. Every day, he would find new ways to spoil her with delicious food.
Jared had been truly good to her.
But she had destroyed it all with her own hands.
Tears streamed down Monica’s face. Her heart ached. She regretted it. Seeing Jared sink into the ocean, she was filled with regret Truly deeply regretted it.
“Jared, I’m sorry… I’m so sorry. I never wanted to do this to you
She sobbed, her cries echoing over the empty water, but there was no sign of Jared.
She stared blankly at the calm sea, her eyes filled with regret and pain.
If only… Monica gave a small, bitter laugh. If it hadn’t been a transaction, she never would have been able to part with Jared.
He would have been a good husband, someone who would have cherished her for a lifetime.
But there were no second chances in this world, and no ‘if onlys’.
“Jared, I’m sorry. I’ve wronged you. If I meet you in the next life, I swear I will love you properly… Waaaah
She had come from a poor
background, despised by her family for being a girl. But she had forgotten that pain, allowing herself to be twisted into a malicious person by those around her. She had completely forgotten that she, too, was once a kind woman
At that moment, Natalie had just speared a magnificent coral trout Its flesh was incredibly tender, a fish Natalie considered a rare treasure for one simple reason she loved. eat it.

She happily placed the fish in her net bag. On her way here, she had also seen a large spider conch.
She dove down a second time to retrieve it.
The moment she saw the spider conch, she smiled. It was huge and heavy in her hand. She was already planning how to cook it for dinner.
Beaming with joy, she started to swim back up to the surface, but then she saw a man sinking slowly into the depths of the sea.
