Avery tried everything she could and struggled with all her might, but she was no match for the other
party in terms of strength.
Melody didn't want to hide her intention.
When she was in front of Avery, she freely revealed her face so that the latter could clearly see who
she was under the water.
Her eyes held chilliness even colder than the seawater they were surrounded in.
Avery's breathing apparatus has been removed.
With the lack of oxygen in her system, breathing was getting more and more difficult.
She subconsciously opened her mouth as if desperate to gasp the much-needed air, but all it seemed
was as if she wanted to gulp down all the water in the sea.
Her lungs were getting more and more uncomfortable, and she felt so bloated and on the verge of
bursting.
Her mind was racing with thoughts of what would happen if she died.
The fear she felt in her heart when looking into Melody's bloodthirsty eyes was so palpable that she
believed Melody would really murder her here.
The cold rage in Melody's eyes was unadulterated.She didn't look like she was joking at all.She was
now genuinely afraid, and she squirmed even more wildly.She felt herself crying and tried to beg
Melody with her eyes.
She could handle it no longer, and Avery soon passed out shortly due to the combined effects of
nervousness and fright.
Melody indifferently looked at Avery, who was lying limply in her arms, and she snorted in disdain.
Her glare could chill people to their bones.It was unfortunate that Avery had already fainted.
‘It had only been three minutes, and it was already over? What a useless thing!’ Melody held the
helpless person in contempt.
Melody plugged Avery's breathing apparatus back in and then dragged her near the beach, where
many people might see her before leaving.
Not long after, Avery was discovered.
The program was in a mess, and no one anticipated Avery to suddenly be in trouble.
As her boyfriend, Noah naturally went forward to rescue her.
He immediately dragged Avery out of the water.
Under the treatment of the accompanying team doctor, Avery was soon out of danger.
After a series of cardiopulmonary resuscitations, Avery woke up coughing out water.
Her condition was mainly due to the short-term coma caused by drowning, along with her inevitable
shock.
The situation was not life-threatening.
However, it was apparent that she was still traumatized.
When she gained consciousness, her eyes wildly danced around, and when she saw Noah as if finding
salvation, she grabbed his hand and gripped it tight as she looked at him in horror.
"Noah, save me.Someone wants to kill me!"
Noah was startled by her sudden actions, and facing Avery's crazy remarks, he was also frightened.
"Avie, what exactly are you talking about? Who wants to kill you? What happened just now?"
Avery's eyes were a little agitated.
She looked at Noah in a daze and trembled nervously, "Noah, Noah, it's Melody.That witch Melody
wants to kill me! She wants to kill me! It's her! I saw her!"
Everything was being recorded on the camera.
Noah felt that Avery must have gone crazy to create a ruckus and come up with such nonsense.
However, looking at Avery's frightened expression, it did not seem to be fake.
This made Noah a little confused.
Just as everyone was bewildered by what was happening, a sudden cheer erupted from the side.
When everyone turned around, they discovered that the other two teams had already returned.
A few of them came down from the boat.
They could see that the seafood buckets in their hands were heavy.
It was evident that they must have gained a lot.
No wonder the members all had bright smiles.
The moment Avery saw Melody get off the boat, her body instinctively remembered the pain she had
just felt, and she couldn't help the subconscious tremble that went through her body.
However, she also realized that there were a lot of people around them, and Melody surely didn't dare
to do anything to her in front of everyone.
Thus, she gained back her courage, and her attitude also turned haughty.
She stood up and rushed to Melody as she accused and shouted at the latter.
"You murderer, you almost killed me! I am calling the police to arrest you!"
Avery was seething mad and didn't care who was around.
Melody had not had the chance to answer yet when Sarah rushed up and blocked her behind.
She looks at Avery seriously.
"Avery, what are you trying to accomplish again? If you've got a problem, come at me.Don't keep on
attacking my sister!"
With disdain in her eyes, Avery looked at Sarah coldly as she spat, "You and your sister are both not
good people.Since your sister dared to attack me, then she must suffer the consequences of her
actions.If you dare to touch me, you just wait and you too will go to jail"
She said it too confidently.
Noah was worried that things would change and affect Avery negatively.
Thus, he took the initiative to explain the situation.
"Just now, Avery was in danger when she fell into the water.She said that Melody took off her breathing
apparatus and grabbed her neck to drown her!"
Melody took a deep breath and was about to stand up to admit to their accusations.She never needed
to deny what she did.
But Sarah was one step faster than she was, and her reaction speed was much faster than hers.
"Nonsense, don't simply open your mouth and come at us.My sister, Mellie, has been catching fish
under the water just now.These are all our spoils and proof of our hard work.How could she have the
time to set you up? As for you guys, you keep on playing tricks every time.Do you think everybody else
is a fool and can't see through you?"
While talking, Sarah angrily kicked the bucket of seafood by her feet, and the fish that were still alive
inside continued to struggle and flap around.
Looking at the bucket full of seafood, Noah also didn't believe that Melody had the time to swim a long
distance just to harm Avery.
And Sarah was not lying.
The one who had been targeting them at every turn was Avery.
Sarah and her sister had always been giving in and kept on ignoring her provocations.
The assault that Avery was accusing Melody was logically impossible to be carried out by the latter.
A member of the crew also spoke up, "Although we were a little late when we went into the water just
now, we were able to see Melody chasing after fishes when we were in the water.It's impossible for
normal people to swim back and forth in that short span of time that we were late, let alone even
harming anyone"
It was, in fact, impossible for ordinary people to do it.
Avery was furious.She looked at the crowd with her face flushed with rage.
"Why are all of you standing up for her? What did she do for you?"
Faced with Avery's accusation, the crew member thought of Yosef, who was standing silently at the
side.
"Yosef, didn't you go into the water with Melody? Did you see her swim over to harm Avery?"
Yosef slowly raised his head and looked at Melody, who was keeping quiet amidst the accusations and
everyone's claims.
After staring at her for a moment, Yosef spoke in a low voice, "I was entirely preoccupied with fishing.I
didn't see anything."
After he finished speaking, he added, "I was already so focused, but I haven't gained as much as
Melody did!"
What he added afterward might seem like just an afterthought, but his underlying meaning was clear.
What he meant was that he had already tried his best, but he still hadn't caught as much as Melody
had.
This indirectly implied that it was impossible for Melody to have the time to commit the crime and still
come back to fish and gain as much as she did.
Therefore, what Avery claimed might not be accurate.
Melody just stood there coldly.
Her indifferent expression didn't change at all.
She only shifted her gaze to Yosef.
This guy...Is he helping her? After hearing Yosef's words, Avery immediately turned her anger at Yosef
and lashed out at him, "Yosef, what drug did this woman give you for you to help her out in her crime?
Why would you slander and harm me like this?"
Noah was frightened after he heard her words.
After all, Rachel was still standing at the side.She had always treasured her son.
How could she allow Avery to criticize him for no reason? Noah hastily tugged at Avery.
With his reminder, as if doused with cold water, Avery woke up from her rage-filled haze.
She raised her head nervously and looked at Rachel.
At this moment, Rachel's face no longer had a trace of her usual warm expression.
Rachel's eyes narrowed slightly when she saw Avery cautiously looking over.Her expression revealed a
trace of viciousness, and Avery felt her knees weaken in an instant.
"Miss Jones, my son said that he didn't see anything.He only described what happened based on his
own experience and ability.Did he have to say that Melody harmed you for it to be taken as true? Is this
not a lie? He can't even tell the truth.Don't you think you're acting too tyrannical?"
"I...I.""
Avery was frightened by Rachel, and her face turned pale.
The director of her next film was close friends with Rachel.
If she offended Rachel, her acting career might just be ruined.She was about to apologize, but Rachel
did not give her a chance.
"I think Miss Jones is wearing too little and caught a cold in the water.Her mind is not clear.She should
return to her room and rest first"
Rachel cast a sideways look at the director after she finished speaking.
The director did not dare to go against Rachel and promptly arranged for his assistant to persuade
Avery to leave.
