Female Novel
Chapter 1107
After Stefan ended his conversation with Elijah, he was in a very irritable mood. He switched his laptopoff and prepared to go for a walk nearby to relax.
For the past few days, he had been getting increasingly frustrated with company matters. It was to thepoint he even thought of stepping down. However, it was impossible to abdicate the position at this verymoment.
At present, looking at the entire Hunt family, the only people who were capable of taking up theresponsibility of managing the entire company were he and Jovan.
Jovan was now traveling around the world, enjoying life with that ‘liar.’ Hence, if Stefan were to give upas well, both the company and the family would be ruined.
Reality was indeed rather cruel, as this was a dog-eat-dog world.
As the head of the eight families in Beach City, the Hunt family was able to enjoy power and glory, withjust as much risk and responsibility to bear. Thus, he wouldn’t dare to stop for a single moment, nomatter how tired he felt.
Moreover, before he could even stop, the Carmine Pawnshop started to attack once again. He justcouldn’t imagine what would happen if the day he decided to give up arrived…
“The Carmine Pawnshop…” The man stood at the edge of the wide lake, his thin lips spitting out coldand cruel words. “You’re the ones who started this first, so you deserve any punishment that comeswith it!”
From a distance, he looked elegant and handsome, especially since it was sunset. As the warmsunlight fell on the lake, the glistening water made his beauty seem all the more enchanting.
Little did one know that this gorgeous man was plotting bloody revenge in his head.
This lake in Banrea was crystal clear, with birds stopping on the surface for a small dip. The breezewas gentle, and the air was fresh. One cannot help but feel relaxed in this environment.
On the other side, a young mother was playing around the lake with her child, who was about three orfour years old. Just then, the mother’s phone rang, and she began to talk to the person on the otherend of the line.
The child was playing on the stone steps of the lake at the time. He probably saw some birds flying onthe lake and intended to catch one for fun, so he started waving his little hands while pouncing on thebirds.
Careless, the child ended up falling straight into the lake.
At first, the mother had no idea about this until someone warned her that her baby had fallen into thewater. He seemed to have drifted to the middle of the lake.
“Ah, my baby, my baby!” The young mother was so anxious that she shouted from the shore, “Help,can someone please save my child? I can’t swim!”
No one was around at that point in time. Moreover, with the place being a hospital, many whosurrounded the area were sick and frail. They clearly had little or no strength to save a drowning child.
“Someone, save my child, please!” The young mother squatted on the ground in despair, cryingprofusely. In desperation, she could only hold her breath and jump into the water herself.
As expected, someone who couldn’t swim could only inch forward a few feet before sinking into thelake herself.novelbin
Stefan was on the other side of the lake, far away from the noise, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Aftergetting a good look, he did not say a word and took off his jacket, ready to come to their rescue.
At the same time, there was a beautiful figure who was just one step ahead of him, jumping straightinto the lake and swimming toward the drowning child.
The man was slightly stunned, but did not think twice before jumping into the lake as well.
Not long after, the baby was picked up by the beautiful figure, while the young mother was picked up byStefan.
Despite having almost drowned, the mother frantically jumped onto her baby without a care in theworld. “Darling, oh darling, are you okay?!”
Unfortunately, the infant had already passed out because he had been in the water for too long.
“He’s unconscious. We must perform CPR immediately!”
