The freezing water wrapped around her like icy claws, an invisible hand seemingly choking her throat.
Suffocating. Still suffocating.
Why did Lucy want to hurt her when she'd tried so hard to be kind?
Why push her into the river right after they'd made plans to go shopping together?
Cold water surrounded her as she sank, unable to open her eyes in the murky river.
Another splash sounded, and this tstrong arms grabbed her. Instinctively, she clutched their wrist,
desperately holding onto this lifeline.
Before losing consciousness, she felt a sharp pain in her fingers.
She woke up in the hospital with Scarlett caring for her.
"How did you fall in?" Scarlett asked when she awoke. "Did you fight with James? Even then, you shouldn't jump
in."
No!
She remembered clearly - someone had pushed her!
Only she and Lucy had been by the river!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt wasn't an accident. Lucy had pushed her.
Suddenly, she remembered grabbing Lucy's bracelet as she fell. Where was it?
"Scarlett, who broughtto the hospital? Did you see a bracelet in my hand?" Sarah asked urgently.
Scarlett thought for a moment. "A Good Samaritan brought you in. We don't know who. You were clutching that
bracelet so tightly during treatment, the nurses barely got it away. They gave it to me."
She went to her bag and pulled out a bracelet. "It doesn't look valuable. Why were you holding it so tight?"
Sarah took the bracelet, her voice cold. "Because this is..."
Suddenly, voices interrupted as Lucy and Mrs. Chancer entered the room.
Mrs. Chancer pushed past Scarlett to grab Sarah's wrist.
Sarah took several deep breaths before pulling her hand away.
Mrs. Chancer acted as if she hadn't noticed Sarah's reaction. "Sarah, I'm glad you're awake, but | must scold you.
How could you jump into the river just because you're angry with James? As a wife, you need to be more
understanding. He's busy with work."
Lucy stood there in her red and white checkered dress, her hair freshly curled, wearing a pearl necklace and
carrying a silk handbag, looking at Sarah smugly.

"Scarlett is my best friend, my family. She has every right to speak," Sarah said coldly.
Scarlett straightened her back as Sarah turned to Lucy. "Where were you yesterday?"
"Me? | was home, of course."
"Not at the bar?"
Mrs. Chancer stepped in front of her daughter. "How dare you? What bar?"
She glanced at the door, relieved to see it closed.
