Chapter 0770

Suzy stared at the monstrous wave closing in on them, and despite her composed exterior, fear gripped her heart.

After all, she was human, and humans feel fear, especially when someone else's life depended on them. With Diana on her back, her tension was overwhelming.

Her palms, clenched around the control lever, were already slick with sweat.

"Diana, don't be afraid," she whispered, her voice steady but more for herself than the unconscious girl.

"I'll get you out of here safely. You'll be back with Grandma and Dylan soon, I promise."

Repeating those words was her way of calming her own nerves, a mantra to keep her focus sharp.

"It's coming... it's coming!"

The middle-aged man beside her was wide-eyed with terror, his pupils blown wide and the red veins in his eyes stark against his pale face. His fear was palpable.

As the wave reached them, towering and unstoppable, Suzy gritted her teeth, summoning every ounce of her strength and willpower.

At the very last moment, she yanked the controls, pouring all her effort into steering the ship.

Against all odds, the vessel turned. The ship, which was on a collision course with the wave, miraculously adjusted its direction just in time.
