Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 358 Out of Your Mind

Dalton couldn't swim.

On this freezing winter day, a thin layer of ice had already formed on the pond's surface.

He shivered uncontrollably as the cold water enveloped him.

The once proud and arrogant man now appeared utterly helpless, flailing in the water, a shadow of his usual self. "Help... help me," he gasped.

At that moment, brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky. The Aniston family had planned a fireworks display tonight.

The best view was from the terrace, far from the pond.

So, no matter how loudly Dalton cried for help, it was unlikely anyone would hear him.

Meryl rushed to the lake's edge.

She hadn't expected Lydia to truly leave Dalton to drown.

Though she had seen them argue, she never thought Lydia would actually go so far as to try and kill him.

Dalton swallowed several gulps of water. While the lake wasn't very deep, it was dangerous enough for someone who couldn't swim.
