Chapter 1042 The chopper was hovering just above the lake when Arabella, without a second thought, ordered the cabin door to be opened and jumped out.

Joyce and Mavis were sinking fast, weighed down by rocks.

Arabella swam with all her might towards the deep, soon spotting the familiar figures of Joyce and Bella sinking further into the lake.

Both Joyce and Mavis were bound by ropes, their struggle to stay afloat becoming more and more futile as they held their breaths for what seemed like an eternity. Would they die here? Tears sprang to Joyce's eyes. She had no understanding of how she ended up in such a situation.

Her distress caused her to involuntarily gulp in a mouthful of water. The suffocating feeling overwhelmed her, she was desperate for help, anyone to save her.

Just when she had given up hope, she felt a tug on her rope. She widened her eyes to see Arabella! Arabella was cutting the rope that bound her to the rock, but the water slowed her movements.

Tears streamed down Joyce's face. She couldn't believe Arabella was risking her life to save her.

She wanted to cry out but held back, fearing it would make their rescue more difficult.

Suddenly, several people dived into the water, swimming towards them.

The fastest swimmer was Romeo, who helped cut the ropes off Joyce and then tried to pull Arabella to the surface. But Arabella was insistent on saving Mavis.

Meanwhile, Romeo's men swam towards Mavis, cutting her ropes and pulling her away from the lake bed.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, they all managed to reach the surface, gasping for fresh air.

Joyce was a whirlwind of feelings, her head spinning.

“Let's get to shore first,” Arabella said, guiding her towards the shore with Romeo close by, offering help when possible.

Back on solid ground, Joyce was shivering from the cold and Mavis, who had swallowed a lot of water, was still unconscious.

After chest compression from Arabella, Mavis coughed up water and clung to Arabella, crying uncontrollably.

"Bella." Mavis seemed oblivious to the others, sobbing, "Those men were so cruel, tying rocks to us, punching us. Joyce's face is all swollen." Looking at Joyce's swollen face and broken lips, Arabella felt a pang of sympathy, "Don't worry, we'll get back at them for this." “Who were they? They wouldn't tell us anything, just pushed us towards the lake. | even scraped my knees and they just grabbedand then they hit us.” Mavis was crying her heart out.

Arabella comforted her like a child, speaking softly, “It's over now, let's get out of here." “Thank goodness you came, thank you for saving us." Mavis clung to her, crying.

Romeo noticed the deep trust and affection the girls had for Arabella. And the way she comforted them was so gentle.

“Alright now, it's okay. Don't cry.” Arabella finally managed to soothe them.

Joyce threw herself at Arabella, "Bella, you cjust in time. Thank you for saving us" If Arabella were a minute late, they would have drowned.

After they had calmed down, Arabella led them to the helicopter.

Romeo draped a blanket over Arabella, helping her dry her hair, “Be careful not to catch a cold" “I'm fine"
