Falling for My Contractual Wife

Grace frowned in pain. She turned around abruptly, wanting to see who had attacked her.

That person did not expect that she wouldn't be knocked unconscious. So, he took out the black bag he had prepared in advance and covered her head.

"Who are you? Let go of me!" screamed Grace.

Without responding to her, the man pushed her into the sea.

The wave crashed over Grace, and she was instantly swept into the sea.

The seawater flooded her nostrils and engulfed her. It was as if her chest was about to explode from the immense pressure.

In her mind, Grace saw a vision of Austin being thrown into the sea. She couldn't imagine how helpless her daughter was at that moment since she was just a small kid.

Grace's tears mixed with the salty, briny seawater, which choked her chest. Her breath grew weaker and weaker.

Austin, Mommy is coming to be with you...'

Grace had already given up struggling and allowed her body to sink deeper and deeper.

Let it all end. Life is too bitter. I'm leaving. Goodbye, Brian.'

Brian's face appeared in her mind. It became increasingly blurred yet somehow clearer.

In her daze, she seemed to see Brian swimming desperately toward her.

She tried to open her eyes to see clearly, and the man's face became clearer and clearer.

Brian grabbed her arm and slowly moved closer. He placed his lips on hers to provide her air. Grace's consciousness became clearer.

What is he doing here?'

Seeing her condition improve slightly, Brian pulled her up and swam to the surface. After emerging from the water, Grace gasped for air. "Brian... Why are you here?" "Let's go up first."

Brian had already expended a lot of energy to save Grace. Now that they were still far from the shore, it would take a lot of effort for him to drag her to safety.

Grace's body continued to sink. Brian nearly exhausted all his strength to bring her to a reef nearby. Brian said, "Grace, wake up."

This reef was small and could not accommodate the two of them. He could only lean her against the rock while he supported himself against the rock to maintain his balance in the water.

They were far from the coastline. Even if Grace woke up, he was unable to bring her to the shore safely. Looking around, the only viable option was to climb up from where they were.

However, without a rope, it was impossible to do that.

They could only wait for rescue.

Suddenly, he saw a dark shadow on the water. He looked up and saw a man standing by the cliff with his gun pointed at him.

Brian's forehead creased, and he

swiftly dragged Grace's body to the innermost side, using the protrading rocks at the cliff's edge to shield her.

The man on the shore squinted his eyes and randomly fired two shots down below, but missed his targets.

After standing there for some time, he realized that he could not hit them, so he changed his position. Brian could only swim forward with Grace.

A wave hit them. Brian hurriedly grabbed Grace's hand to prevent her from being swept away, but he was slammed into the rock.

A sharp pain shot through the back of his head.

Soon after, he lost consciousness.

When Grace woke up, she found herself in a hospital room.

The air carried a faint smell of salt mixed with the hospital's disinfectant.

There were three beds in the ward. One was empty, and the other was occupied by a middle-aged woman who was on an IV drip.
