Landon froze. He instinctively refused to accept the fact his ex-wife was only
trying to help him. “That’s impossible!”
Tears welled up in the woman’s eyes. “Why didn’t you just ask me when you
saw us together? Why would you rather believe those so-called friends of yours
than your own wife?!
I didn’t divorce you because I was in love with someone else. I divorced you
because you changed!”
A hint of confusion flashed across Landon’s face. It took a while before he
mumbled, “Could it really be my fault?”
Marshall gave the woman a subtle nod. She took a deep breath and softened
her tone. “Let’s leave the past behind. Stop hurting innocent people. Let them
go, and I’ll go home with you.”
Landon was taken aback. “Are you really willing to come home with me?” he
asked in a low voice.
The woman concealed her fear and nodded. “Of course.”
Landon stared at his ex-wife for a few seconds, as though he was evaluating the
truth behind her words. Suspense was hanging in the air. After a moment, he
spoke again. “Then, come here and support me.”
The woman’s body stiffened. “Go on, the police will be here soon,” Marshall
murmured.
The woman hesitated. She clenched her fingers and took slow steps toward the
abusive man.
Stella watched Keegan intently, as she was waiting for the right moment to act.
The woman slowly approached the railing at the edge of the bridge and reached
out her hand. Her voice was trembling. “…Let’s go home.”
Landon’s expression softened slightly. Just as his hands touched her fingertips,
sirens started blaring. The police had arrived.
The woman quickly withdrew her hand, and Landon’s face contorted in a
sudden realization. “You witch! You betrayed me!”
Feeling fearful, the woman retreated, and any trace of the tenderness she had
earlier vanished from her face. At that moment, her expression held only fear
and hatred.
As police cars arrived one after another, Marshall spoke up.” You can’t escape
now. The cops are everywhere. They’ll consider being lenient if you release the
hostages now.”
“Hah. Is there a difference between being executed immediately and being on
death row? I will never have a chance at life. I’d rather die than surrender!”
Landon sneered.
He turned to his ex-wife and continued, “You better watch out, bitch. I’m going
haunt you for the rest of your life when I die!” With that, he suddenly tightened
his grip around Keegan’s neck and murmured something in his ear. The next
moment, he held Keegan in his arms and jumped into the icy water.
Stella’s heart stopped. Fear spread through her limbs, and she jumped in after
them without a second thought.
Marshall could not react in time to stop her. He stood at the railing with a pale
face, staring at the river below. His lips trembled slightly. “Help!” He abruptly
turned around to the approaching police and shouted, “Help! Somebody save
them!!!”
The water was not deep, but the current was strong. The biting cold of midwinter
made the situation even more unbearable. Even basic tasks seemed to drag on
in such frigid conditions.
Fortunately, the moon was exceptionally bright that night. Stella quickly spotted
the two struggling figures in the water. She took a deep breath and swam with
all her strength.
It seemed that Landon also did not know how to swim. Although he claimed that
he would rather die, he instinctively grasped onto life when death came
knocking at his door.
Stella reached out and grabbed his leg, pulling him underwater. Perhaps it was
the sudden shock, as he subconsciously released his hold on Keegan. Stella
immediately let go as well. Without anything to hold onto, Landon was swept
away by the current.
