Chapter 1431

The man took her to the corner of the pool and held her there

There was an iron pipe at the bottom of the pool that was secured in the concrete wall used for

water flow

He tightly secured Ashlynn’s hand to the iron pipe using a rope

"What are you planning on doing? Corentin won't let you go!” Ashlynn struggled and sensed that

her life was in danger

However, the rope was tied so tightly to the iron pipe that she could not move an inch and only

caused pain to her delicate wrists.

She stopped moving completely.

In fact, she did not struggle with all of her strength.

Otherwise, when she untied the rope on her feet, the man would have kicked her away.

She was also waiting for Corentin to arrive.

She wanted to know what would happen next in the story.

Would Corentin die for her?

If so, would he be willing to reveal the videos and photos?

Ashlynn was calculating her options.

If it were someone else, she might feel guilty.

However, when it came to Corentin, not only did she feel no guilt, but she also felt that it was not

enough to relieve her hatred!

Being kind to monsters meant being cruel to oneself!

The man tied her up so that only her neck was above the water, and then opened the water valve

next to her.

The water level in the pool rose slowly.

The man was very satisfied with his masterpiece. “I want to see if Corentin will arrive in time to save

you before the water covers your head. But I think he won't make it in time. After all, it's hard to find

this place. There is no surveillance in the slums. By the time he finds his way here, you will be dead.”

After speaking, he climbed out of the pool and prepared to leave.

“You're just going to leave? I thought you said you wanted to die with us?” Ashlynn asked.

“Even if I do, I want to see you two die first!” The man snorted heavily, turned, and ran away.

The water level in the pool was rising, and as time passed, Ashlynn could feel the water level slowly

rising up, covering her face.

It reached her mouth.

The distance from the mouth to the nose was very short, and when it reached her nose, Ashlynn

tilted her head back, exposing her nostrils to the surface of the water to inhale oxygen.

However, she could not do this for long.

It was very quiet in the bathhouse, and she could not hear anything with water in her ears.

After a while, the water covered her eyes, the top of her head, and her whole body sank to the

bottom of the water

Water surrounded her

Ashlynn could swim, but that did not mean she could breathe underwater

She could not hold on any longer after just two minutes and struggled violently in the water,

twisting the rope around her wrist.

Could it be that Corentin really would not make it in time?

Would she really die in this pool?

The oxygen in her lungs was depleting, and she began to suffocate painfully.

Her consciousness was gradually fading, the strength of her struggles became weaker, and the

sound of water in her ears disappeared.

Ashlynn’s eyes were closed, her head drooping.

Then there was a splash, and someone rushed into the water, causing a stir in the entire pool.

Corentin sank to the bottom of the water, lifted Ashlynn’s face up, pried her lips open and breathed

oxygen into her continuously.

Ashlynn became conscious and opened her eyes in a trance, only seeing a blurry figure.

Corentin used one hand to try and untie the rope while he breathed oxygen into her.

The hand holding the rope was like iron, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged, as he used

all his strength to try and untie it.

The rope snapped with a loud bang after three attempts.

Corentin pulled Ashlynn out of the water and held her in his arms.

“Ashlynn?” Corentin's voice was filled with tension.

Ashlynn opened her confused and powerless eyes. Her face was pale, her soft lips had a delicate red

tint as she parted them slightly and said, “...Am I not dead?”
