Chapter 156
I was running out of strength at that point.
Just as I was about to fall into the bottomless sea, I suddenly heard Yosef’s shout. I didn’t know where I got the strength to support myself, but I had to see clearly who pushed me.
With such force, it was obvious that they wanted me dead.
I gritted my teeth and tried desperately to climb up.
I thought. I can’t die yet!
I still have so much left to do.
The cruise ship hasn’t returned to Elysiumville yet. I promised Marlon we’d travel abroad, and I’m still not divorced from Hayden!
And my baby. How can I die like this?
No. I can’t!
But just as I was desperately trying to climb up, a face suddenly appeared in my sight.
It was Joanna.
“Yvonne! You’ve finally met your match!” She grinned, like a demon crawling out of hell
My mind was racing. I remembered Yosef talking to me just now. Sophia was far away from me. It couldn’t have been either of them who pushed me
“Did you push me?” I quickly came to a conclusion.
“So what if I did? I’m doing you a favor.” Joanna crossed her arms with a triumphant look.
She had long forgotten her fear and terror, and now she just wanted to enjoy the fruits of victory.
“You’re insane! You’re trying to kill me?” I gritted my teeth, reasoning with her while desperately clinging to the railing.
If it weren’t for today, I would never know that I could be so strong that I could support my entire weight for so long.
Not only was Joanna unafraid, but she even leaned over to look at me. “All you have left is your mouth, isn’t it, Yvonne? If I were you, I would just let go and die to save myself from living in such a sorry state!”
“You wish!” I gritted my teeth. Even though I was talking tough, I knew that I was running out of strength.
Joanna seized the opportunity to try and break me.
She said, “Just think about your life. You’ve wasted your good looks on a man who doesn’t love you at all. He doesn’t love yet you still try to force yourself on him… Hayden hates you! So what if you went abroad to take care of him? You even dragged your own mother into this. In the end, he can’t even be bothered to look at you! He finds you disgusting!”
Every word she uttered was chipping away at what little dignity I had left.
you.
“You think these words can crush me? Joanna, in the end, you’re the one who got dumped.” I retorted, tears welling up in my
eyes.
At the same time, I couldn’t help but lower my gaze.
I stared at the whitecaps below me, my heart turning colder by the second.

I felt that I might not be able to hold on anymore.
I never thought my final destination would be here.
Joanna’s voice still hung above me, pressing me step by step. “Who says I was dumped? I’m carrying Hayden’s child. How could be possibly dump me?
i just putting on an act with me to lower your guard and get back the shares in your hands! Do you really think he loves you that much”
At this point. I no longer had the clarity to analyze the truth of her words. My instincts took over as I thought, “No wonder Hayden’s behavior has been strange lately. Is it all just to get back the shares of the Parker Group in my hands?
“You’re really cunning?
Joanna continued. How dare you accuse my mother? You killed your own mother! She loved you the most, but you abandoned her for a man, causing her to jump off a building Falling from such a height her body was smashed to pieces.”
I clenched my teeth tightly, unable to utter a single word, my eyes filled with tears.
“If I were you, I would just let go and die!” Joanna continued to provoke me.
I could endure anything, except for my mother.
I didn’t fulfill my duty as a daughter, and I felt that I shouldn’t have gone abroad for Hayden.
At that point, I no longer had the strength to
hback
Everything that had happened in the past twenty years flashed before my eyes like a movie.
I gave everything to Hayden, but in return, all I got was his disgust and ridicule.
For the love of Hayden, I even neglected my own mother. I felt that I didn’t deserve to be her daughter. Thinking about my life, I found it to be a failure.
not until this moment that I understood what it meant to be utterly hopeless.
It felt like a pair of ruthless hands had ripped a hole in my heart, and an icy wind was pouring into it. Slowly, I closed my eyes, my hand losing its grip
I rapidly fell as the howling wind bore witness to my downfall
A tremendous splash exploded in my ears.
At that moment, I felt a surge of excruciating pain.
The moment my body touched the water, the pain almost knocked me unconscious
I never knew that soft water could bring me such immense pain.
Perhaps, it was because it was too high.
Immediately afterward, water rushed in from all directions, covering my mouth, nose, eyes, and finally the top of my head.
My breath was also taken away.
I sank to the bottom without even a chance to struggle.
In the last second before I lost consciousness, I sighed in my heart, ‘So this is what death feels like.

Chapter 156
No more life, no more hope, and everything sank into darkness, with no escape..
A few people playing on the deck were the first to hear the splash.
They all looked towards the water.
One of them asked, “What was that?”
Another person asked, “I don’t know… Was it a fish?”
Someone said. “With a splash that big, it must have been a shark, right?”
Everyone burst into laughter, and no one paid any attention.
After all, no one could have imagined that someone had just fallen into the sea.
Dylan happened to be there.
While everyone else only noticed the surface of the sea, he subconsciously looked up.
It was at this glance that he saw Joanna and Sophia, who were leaning over the edge of the roof. Yosef was the last to poke his head out.
He couldn’t make out the expressions on the three people’s faces. After all, it was seven stories high, and it was night.
But Dylan remembered their clothes, dresses, and hairstyles. Since these three were Yvonne’s family, he observed them. carefully
The three people upstairs quickly retracted their heads after finding him.
Dylan instinctively realized that something was definitely up.
The loud noise just now didn’t sound like a small object falling into the water at all.
He thought, ‘What could they throw off the roof?‘
Without saying a word, Dylan ran quickly upstairs.
At this time upstairs, Sophia pulled Joanna and Yosef back.
The three of them collapsed under the railing, their eyes wide with fear.
“Yvonne..” Yosef mumbled as if still in shock, “Don’t blame me. I had no choice…”
“Shut up!” Sophia immediately scolded him.
Joanna also panicked, “Mom, what should we do? That person is Yvonne’s friend, and he saw us just now. Will he know that I pushed Yvonne down?”
