‘That’s too much. I’m blocking her.’
‘No one ever said she knew physiognomy. I think it’s fake.’
‘Let’s wait and see.’
Everyone stared at the screen without blinking. Even viewers from other livestreams came over to watch after hearing about the situation.
Aaron and Leon’s fans mocked Simone, not believing her at all. They flooded the chatroom with negative comments, annoying everyone.
Simone tapped into Deuce’s aura and made a prediction based on his physiognomy, determining the general location of his son. Ten minutes later, she arrived at the dam built to water the fields. Standing on the edge, she saw two boys swimming and playing happily in the middle of the dam.
Unbeknownst to them, danger was approaching. Their philtrums were getting darker, a sign that they would soon die. Simone quickly took off her hat and gloves, tossing them onto the ground. Then, she removed her shoes, leaped into the water, and swam towards the boys.
The people who followed her found this strange. The viewers thought the same.
“What is she trying to do? Play around?”
“Yeah, it’s not safe to swim in a dam, but Deuce’s son is fine, right?”
“I’m impressed. Simone is making it look real.”
“The kids are fine, but why is she jumping in to save them?”
“Is she trying to get more attention? This seems desperate.”
“I’m speechless. Jumping in just to save them seems unnecessary.”
When Deuce saw his son in the water, he sighed with relief but shouted, “Get back up here, you brat!”
Deuce’s son looked at him and instead of swimming back up, he went further away. “No. I want to stay here longer.”
His cousin followed suit. Zac noticed Simone still swimming towards the kids. He had only known her for a few days, but he thought she was a woman who knew what she was doing. Seeing the boys swimming further away, he also took off his hat and gloves, tossing them onto the ground. Then, he kicked off his shoes, leaped into the water, and swam towards the kids.
The people on the shore were stunned by his actions. What is he trying to do? The viewers had the same question.
“What’s Zac doing?”
“He didn’t have to get into the water. Just let the kids come back on their own.”
“They think they’re helping, but they’re actually hindering.”
“The kids swam further away after they arrived.”
“Simone is desperate for fame. Of course, she came up with this to get more attention, but why did Zac do this?”
“Maybe he’s mad too?”
However, a tragic incident occurred. Suddenly, the water from the dam surged forward with the force of rampaging horses. Enormous waves crashed over the surface, pulling the startled boys beneath the water.
Keira gasped. “The water has dragged them under!”
Deuce’s expression turned horrified. “Oh no! Who opened the gates?” He was familiar with this scenario, as it would happen every time they needed to irrigate the fields. Deuce could only watch helplessly as the water carried his son towards the gates, causing his legs to give way.
Situated on the hill, the dam stood nearly 100 feet above the fields. However, what was more concerning was the powerful rush of water that would occur whenever the gates were opened. Once the children were pulled into the undercurrent, their chances of survival were uncertain.
Deuce was on the verge of diving into the water to save his son, but his companions held him back. “Stay calm, the two of them are already reaching the kids.”
“Yes, it’s too late for you to jump in. You might even impede their rescue efforts.”
Deuce observed as the two celebrities swam towards the two children. He watched nervously, but refrained from impulsively jumping into the water. It was already too late for him to do so. All he could do now was pray for the safe return of the two kids, thanks to the efforts of the celebrities.
Only then did he understand why Simone had immediately jumped into the reservoir upon arrival. She had predicted that the two children would soon be in danger.
Now, the others also realized why she had taken the plunge and swam towards the children when they were not yet in danger.
Jonah, who had been watching the live stream, immediately sensed that the situation was more complicated than it seemed when Simone dived into the water. He knew of her skills in physiognomy and other mystical arts. Thanks to her talisman, his wife had been saved from an accident before. Therefore, he quickly called the head of the medical team they had brought along, instructing them to hurry to the scene and prepare for a rescue.
However, when he saw Zac jump into the water as well, his expression turned to horror. Why did this guy jump in too? If anything goes wrong, the show and I will be finished!
Thankfully, Simone and Zac swiftly reached the children before any accidents occurred. Simone arrived just in time to grab one of the kids when the current pulled them away.
Zac followed a few seconds later, managing to seize the other child.
After securing both kids, they swam towards the shore while the onlookers anxiously held their breath, watching their progress.
Following Jonah’s instructions, the production team quickly snapped a tree branch from the surroundings.
Simone swam towards the shore with the child in her arms. Waves crashed against her, and one wrong move could lead to their demise. However, she possessed physical strength and knew how to use it wisely. Despite the water pushing against them, she successfully reached the shore. She first pushed the child onto the coast, but just as she grabbed the tree branch offered by the crew members and was about to climb onto the shore, someone suddenly cried out, “Oh, no! Zac!”
She turned and saw Zac, who had also pushed the other child ashore. However, the current grew stronger, and a huge wave engulfed him before he could grab the tree branch.
Without hesitation, Simone let go of the tree branch and swam towards him.
Witnessing her sacrifice the chance to climb ashore and instead swim to save Zac, most people on the shore had only one thought. Is she insane?
Aaron and the others, who had just arrived, also witnessed the scene. They had spent the entire morning searching and finally found a family that needed help picking fruit. Following the family to the orchard, they saw Simone running in a certain direction. Moments later, they saw Zac and others chasing after her.
Sensing that something might have happened, they followed suit. When they arrived, they witnessed Simone and Zac pulling two children out of the reservoir. However, before they could fully comprehend the situation, Simone gave up the chance to climb ashore and turned to save Zac instead.
“Simone!” Both Aaron and Leon’s expressions changed as they instinctively ran towards the shore.
Jodie’s eyes darkened as she observed their strong and anxious reactions. Deep down, she felt extremely displeased. She watched as Zac was swept away and disappeared into the water, while Simone dove in after him and could no longer be seen. What an idiot she is! Risking her life to save someone else.
As water was released from the reservoir, the current became rapid and turbulent, threatening to wash the two away at any moment. It would be nice if Simone drowned right away. I would no longer have to worry about her stealing my possessions and the love and care I receive. A person who should have been dead in the first place deserves such an end. However, she concealed her true feelings and feigned deep concern.
Meanwhile, after seeing Zac being dragged below the water’s surface, Simone also dove underwater. Visibility was poor, but she managed to discern the direction in which he was being carried. Following the current, she quickly swam to his side and grabbed him by the arm. However, the strong current swept them both towards the reservoir gate.
Despite the challenging circumstances, Simone remained calm. She held her breath, gripping Zac’s arm with one hand while clutching the jade pendant around her neck with the other. This jade pendant was a mystical tool given to her by her mentor, possessing the power to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
Soon, the jade pendant began to emit a glowing, flickering light, and an inexplicable phenomenon occurred. Suddenly, the water around them seemed to halt and no longer crashed against them. Seizing the opportunity, she swam to his side, wrapped her arm around his waist, and headed towards the shore.
Although Zac’s eyes were tightly closed, he remained conscious. Initially, he had thought his impulsive actions would cost him his life.
Being pulled further away by the current, he experienced a leg cramp at a critical moment. Unable to swim upward to save himself, he also choked on a considerable amount of water. Unable to breathe, he felt like he was going into shock.
Just as he thought he might drown, a hand suddenly grabbed his arm. Soon after, he was held around the waist and pulled forward. Am I being rescued? If he could survive, he certainly did not want to die.
At that moment, the people on the shore and the viewers of the live stream watched with bated breath. The live chat remained empty, as everyone was too nervous to type.
Fans of Simone and Zac silently prayed in their hearts, desperately hoping that nothing unfortunate would happen to them. Even casual viewers and fans of the other guests wished for the duo’s safe return.
Despite their prayers, the swift current and the reservoir’s depth posed a significant challenge. If the two were to disappear amidst the waves, their chances of survival would be slim. At that very moment, a small number of Aaron, Jodie, and Leon’s fans harbored ill wishes towards the two.
Just when everyone thought the two might be lost, Simone suddenly emerged from the water with Zac in her arms and swam towards the shore.
Witnessing this, the people on the shore and the livestream viewers couldn’t help but shout in excitement, while their fans were moved to the brink of tears.
Then, a series of heart-pounding moments unfolded. Simone managed to swim closer to the shore with Zac in tow, only to be repeatedly swept back by the strong current. However, instead of giving up, she persevered and continued to swim against the waves. Finally, she succeeded in reaching the shore. Just as another powerful current came crashing towards them, she reached out and grabbed the outstretched tree branch held by the people.
At that moment, the person on the other end of the tree branch hastily pulled them towards the shore with all their strength, quickly hauling them up.
