In the midst of sudden and intense pain, Becca Reyes instinctively opened her mouth, but within a second, the seawater poured in, forcing out all of her remaining air. The panic of drowning surged within her in an instant.
What's worse, her calf was spasming violently, as if the pain was about to rip through her muscles and bones. She desperately tried to swim upward to breathe fresh air, but could not. The water surface was just above her, seemingly an inch away, but even her furthest reaches could not touch it. Only a fatal asphyxiation and inescapable pain awaited her.
She didn't know how long it had been, but when Becca Reyes thought she would actually die here, a pair of hands suddenly lifted her body. In her blurry vision, she seemed to see Flossie Wright's slightly furrowed brows. Before she could process this, her body had already breached the surface. Fresh air entered her mouth and the life-giving aura hit her face.
