Chapter 336
Jessica had actually tampered with the yacht in advance, planting explosives on board.
This was the countdown for the bomb. Once the three minutes were up,
would detonate.

Jessica gazed out over the sea.
“Benny, don’t blame me! You can only blame yourself. Your heart has already turned toward Wendy, so you’ll disappear with her.”

On the yacht, Benny had intended to head back.
Just then, a massive wave crashed over them, the cold water splashing onto Wendy’s face.
Her long lashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes. She was awake.
Sitting up, she looked at Benny in confusion. “Benny? Where are we?” Her head was aching
faintly.
Benny turned to her. “You’re awake?”
Wendy quickly realized what was happening. She stared at the vast, endless ocean, and her eyes instantly grew cold.
“Benny, why did you take me out here?”
“What? Do you think I’m trying to hurt you? Jessica actually told me to bring you out here. I may not like you, but I would never harm you! I’m taking you back right now.”
Jessica, again?
Wendy didn’t understand why Jessica was doing this. She and Stanley were already divorced. Stanley loved Jessica–what more could she possibly want?

Then, Wendy suddenly noticed the red blinking light of a countdown timer. “What’s this?”
Benny froze. “That’s a bomb! Why would there be a bomb on the yacht?”
Wendy’s heart sank. The countdown had already entered the final 30 seconds, counting down by the second…
She grabbed Benny urgently. “It’s too late! The bomb is about to explode!”
Benny cursed under his breath. “What do we do?”
Wendy looked at the endless sea. “We have no choice but to jump.”
“Are you insane? This is the ocean!”
“Being blown up or jumping–pick one.
“I’m not jumping!” Benny shouted.
Wendy stood there for a moment, and then–without hesitation–kicked Benny from behind. His body toppled off the yacht and plunged into the cold, unforgiving sea.
“Dammit!” Benny’s voice was drowned out by the roaring, icy water.
The countdown was now in its final ten seconds.
10, 9, 8…
Without any hesitation, Wendy leaped into the air. Her slender body fell gracefully into the
boundless sea below.
Boom!
The yacht exploded with a deafening blast.
Stanley stood with his phone in hand, repeatedly calling Wendy, but the voice on the other
end was cold and mechanical.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed cannot be reached at the moment. Please try again
later.”
Where had she gone?
For some reason, Stanley felt a sense of unease, as if something bad had happened.
He immediately returned to the resort hotel and went to Wendy’s room, Room 608. He raised his hand to knock on the door, but the door was slightly ajar, and it swung open
automatically.
Stanley stepped inside. “Wendy? Where…”
His voice trailed off when he saw Wendy’s phone lying on the carpet.
At that moment, Lucas appeared at the door. “Wendy? Stanley, what are you doing here? Where’s Wendy?”
Stanley picked up Wendy’s phone, his face darkening. “Something’s happened to Wendy.”
Lucas froze. “What?”
Stanley strode out of the room, shouting, “Someone!
Help!”
