At that very moment—
“Emily!”
Tyler burst in, breathless, having hurried back with his assistant to fetch the contract.
Without a second’s hesitation, he plunged straight into the freezing pool.
He scooped her out of the icy water, pulling her limp form into his arms.
Blood kept streaming from her wounds, mingling with the frigid water, trailing down his arms and soaking into his shirt, spreading in a wide, crimson stain.
The sight was harrowing.
Hillside Manor, inside the bedroom.
“That’s what happened after you left that day,” Raymond told Tyler.
He’d already downed several glasses of whiskey, and his eyes were glazed, tinged with the haze of intoxication.
Raymond glanced up at Tyler, sitting across from him, his eyes rimmed red.
With a bitter, self-deprecating smile, Raymond continued.
“It’s really just a simple story,” he said, brow furrowed. Sunlight poured through the massive bedroom windows, casting a rare glint of red in his eyes.
“She believed in you. She loved you. She risked everything for you.”
“Do you remember?” Raymond’s voice was hoarse as he looked at Tyler, the breeze ruffling his hair. “That day, after you pulled her out of the water, she still made me promise to remember the contract.”
“She truly loved you.”
Crash—
A sudden clatter broke the silence. In a blink, Tyler, who had been slumped on the bed, seized Raymond by the collar and slammed him hard against the white wall.
