Chapter 427:

“Yes, Rachel also—”

Before Tracy could finish speaking, Brian launched himself into the pool.

He plunged into the cold water, paddling frantically, turning this way and that in search of Rachel. But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t find a single trace of her.

He decided to swim around the pool—one lap, then two, then three… until he eventually lost track of how many times he had scoured the entire pool.

Eventually, his stamina waned. When he finally broke the surface, he took a deep breath and yelled out desperately, “Rachel, where are you? Come out, now! Stop hiding. Please, just come out.”

He called out repeatedly, but received no response. “I’m begging you, please come out! You can yell at me, or hit me, you can do whatever you want! Just please, show yourself…” By the end, his voice dropped to a whisper.

Droplets dripped from his chin, though it was impossible to tell whether they were water or tears. Brian was desolate, and it was clear to anyone who looked.
