Chapter 229 What Should Be Done

The guy kept switching up his swimming strokes, making little waves on the otherwise calm sea.

I could hardly believe my eyes and just stared, momentarily forgetting my sadness.

While I was in a daze, the man in the sea had already started swimming towards the shore.

I slowly stood up, feeling my legs go weak. Jason quickly reached out to support me, and I barely managed to stand firm.

Seeing the man walking straight toward us, I rubbed my face, tight from dried tears, and started to sweat.

"What's wrong?"

Jason must have sensed my tension.

From about 30 feet away, I became more certain that I hadn't seen wrong.

I thought to myself, 'Will he recognize me?'

In a panic, I turned and buried my face in Jason's chest.

Jason's body stiffened, and he probably thought I was still upset, so he gently patted my back to comfort me.

"Let's go back!"

I looked up and grabbed his arm.

He nodded at me, and we immediately got into the car.

Before the car could start, there was a knock on the window, and my heart jumped into my throat.

On Jason's side of the window, a large man's hand was pressed against the glass. Through the window, I could see the muscular arm and the solid, bare chest of the hand's owner. Jason must have noticed my tension, so he didn't open the window right away.

The man outside knocked more urgently, determined not to give up. If we didn't open the window, it would seem suspicious.

I took a deep breath and signaled Jason to open the window.

Slowly, the window rolled down, and the man outside bent down to look inside the car.

Water droplets slid down his tattooed chest, and his hair was still dripping. He glanced at Jason first, then fixed his gaze on my face.

My eyes fell on the scar on his shoulder and then calmly moved away.

I wasn't sure if he recognized me, given that on the cruise that night, I was heavily made up and wearing a mask.

"I was hoping to catch a ride. Is that okay?" he asked, looking at me.

Jason looked at me, indicating that it was up to me.

I secretly clenched the hem of my clothes and forced a smile, saying, "Where are you headed?"
