691 Chapter 690
Keira froze, her body suddenly tense as she stared straight ahead. Without hesitation, she was about to jump off
the boat to rescue the person in the water. But in the next moment, Lewis firmly grabbed her arm, stopping her.
Keira turned to him with urgent eyes. "Aren't we going to help them?"
Lewis shook his head. "They're official personnel. We can't act recklessly."
Keira frowned.
Behind them, Erin let out a mocking laugh. "You were so confident just a moment ago. And now look at this
mess! How utterly useless!"
Keira spun around and glared at Erin.
Caught off guard by Keira's intense stare, Erin stammered, "W-What? Are you accusing me?"
Keira's gaze remained fixed on Erin, her voice cold. "If it wasn't you, then who else could it be?"
Erin lifted her chin defiantly, her eyes full of stubbornness. "Yes, it was me! We're enemies, after all. What's
wrong withcausing trouble for you? We're both contenders for the South family's inheritance. Why did you
trustso easily?"
As she spoke, Erin reached into her pocket.
Keira's eyes widened, and she instinctively gripped a silver needle, ready to act if Erin tried anything with a gun.
But instead of pulling out a weapon to attack, Erin produced a silver handgun and handed it to Keira, pressing
the barrel against her own forehead. "Go ahead, then! Kill me!"
Keira was stunned.
Erin stared at her with a mix of anger and challenge. "You think you can accuseand get away with it? If you
want to clear your doubts, killingis your best option!"
Keira was speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtErin added, "Do you think this gun is empty?" She then fired a shot into the air, the silenced gun making only a
faint sound, but the bullet pierced through the boat's deck, proving it was loaded.
Erin, still fuming, glared at Keira. "Con, shoot me!"
Keira remained silent.
Taking a deep breath, Keira finally said, "You insisted on coming along. Now that things have gone wrong, I'm
supposed to ignore you?"
Erin, like a defiant wife unfairly accused, pouted. "So just shootif you think I'm the problem!"
"Enough!" Keira snapped.
Erin immediately fell silent, but she continued to sulk and glare off into the distance, clearly upset. "This is too
much. Absolutely too much!"
Keira ignored Erin and turned her attention back to the shore.
Lewis frowned deeply.
They were too far away to hear the conversation onshore, but they could see the car being forced to stop, with
officials from Crera surrounding it and pulling the passengers out.
Keira took a deep breath. "Are we just going to watch?"
Lewis explained, "You can see about fifty people, but they've been aware of this situation for a while. There are
likely at least five hundred more hidden nearby. If we make a move, we'll be captured immediately."
Keira's anxiety grew, but seeing Lewis's serious expression, she held back her frustration.
Professor Barry Brandt was a valuable scientist, and even if he was captured by Crera's officials, his life wouldn't
be at risk.
There wasn't much to worry about regarding his safety.
However...
"How will you clear Keira's nif Professor Brandt doesn't return to the country?" Erin spoke up again. "If |
were you and truly cared about her, I'd find a way to rescue him, even if it meant facing thousands of people
onshore!"
Lewis turned to Erin. "Then why don't you go?"
Erin was momentarily speechless before huffing, "I'm not her husband!"
Lewis didn't say a word.
He turned to the ship's captain and ordered, "Take us back."
"Yes, sir."
The boat quietly began to turn, heading back to Crera.
Keira watched the shoreline recede with a frown.
Erin continued to grumble. "You made such a big deal about Plan B, but now we're just sneaking away? What a
waste!"
She added, "You're so useless!"
"Keira, why are you still with this guy? Break up with him before it's too late!"
Neither Keira nor Lewis responded.
Erin, still fuming, pulled out spistachios and began eating them with a crunch.
But her frustration didn't subside. She
looked back at them and asked,

Erin was momentarily silenced.

After sulking for a moment, she couldn't help but ask again, "So what's the plan now?"
Keira glanced at Lewis.
The boat was now far from Crera, but Lewis seemed increasingly calm.
She asked, "Is Plan B going smoothly?"
Lewis smiled and said, "You really can't miss a thing, can you?"
