Chapter 337
Wendy felt pain all over her body, as if her bones were about to shatter.
And it was so cold.
The icy ocean water relentlessly splashed against her face, sending a chill deep into her bones. She shivered uncontrollably and fully regained consciousness, slowly opening her
eyes.
She was alive.

The yacht had explosives on board, and just before it was about to detonate, she and Benny had jumped into the sea. The cold, biting water surged around her in every direction, but she fought against it, swimming with all her might.
Her small body unleashed an incredible drive to survive.
Eventually, the waves carried her to the shore.
It was already nighttime, and the area was desolate. Wendy struggled to stand.
“Benny? Benny!”
She had kicked Benny into the sea. Where was he now?
Wendy looked around. “Benny, are you alive? If you are, answer me!”
Soon, she stopped, her eyes falling on Benny, who had also been washed ashore.
Wendy rushed over. “Benny? Benny, wake up!”
Benny was unconscious, his right leg severely injured, blood pouring from the wound.
The blood had already stained the ground around him.
Wendy checked his injury, her expression tense. Benny’s leg was badly hurt–if it wasn’t treated soon, he’d lose it for sure.

Wendy wasn’t some kind of saint. If Benny hadn’t brought her out to the sea, none of this would have happened. He and Jessica were working together.
Right now, she really wanted to leave him here and let him fend for himself.
Even so, Wendy knew Benny wasn’t a bad person at heart. She had to find a way to help
him.
However, they were in the middle of nowhere, and there wasn’t a soul in sight.
“Is anyone there? Help! Help!” Wendy shouted.
At that moment, a beam of flashlight light shone toward her, and two men appeared.
The man in the lead shouted, “Who’s there?”
Wendy’s heart leaped with hope. “We’re tourists who fell into the water. My friend is hurt. Can you help us?”
The two men approached. This was Jetmore, a small coastal village. The man in front was
Alec Kemp, the village chief’s son, and the one behind him was his younger brother, Peter
Kemp.
Alec’s gaze landed on Wendy’s face. When he saw her delicate, stunning beauty, his eyes lit
- up.
Wendy felt uneasy under his gaze, but being in such a situation, she had no choice but to lower her head. “So, can you help us?”
Alec quickly nodded. “Of course. We’re happy to help. Come with us to our village, and I’ll have our village doctor come take a look.”
Wendy thanked them sincerely. “Thank you so much. We really appreciate it.”
Alec and Peter carried the unconscious Benny into a small house and laid him on the bed. Soon, the village doctor arrived and began to examine Benny’s leg injury.

Benny slowly regained consciousness, his face pale as he looked around. “Where are we?”
Wendy stepped forward. “Hey, you’re awake. We were washed ashore by the waves. Alec helped us.”
Alec’s eyes remained fixed on Wendy. “What’s your relationship with him?”
Wendy immediately replied, “I’m his sister–in–law.”
Benny knew she was pretending Stanley was his brother, but he still glared at her. “You’ve got a thick skin! Who says you are?”
Alec seemed surprised. “You’re married?”
Wendy nodded. “Yes, I’ve been married for over three years. My husband must have
noticed that we’re missing and is probably looking for us right now. He’ll be here soon.
Since you saved us, my husband will surely reward you handsomely.”
