The moment she grabbed the amulet, Kelly quickly swam upward. Yet, the moment her head broke through the water, her ankle was ensnared by underwater weeds and she could not move.
"Help!" she yelled
"Help!"
Kelly's body was bobbing up and down like a piece of wood.
"George … save me!" she screamed as hard as she could.
Suddenly, someone swam toward her. The strong arms pulled the plants that were binding her ankle, the next moment, it wrapped around her waist and quickly took her to swim upstream. Before she lost consciousness, Kelly caught a fleeting glimpse of a sharp, chiseled jawline.
Meanwhile, George could not find Kelly anywhere. He was furious and irritation was clearly written on his face. "All I asked was for her to wash a dress and she storms off like this?" he muttered angrily.
Amanda quickly patted his back to calm him, "Don't be mad. I believe Kelly didn’t mean it. Maybe ... she’ll come back once she’s calmed down."
Hopefully, she never does, Amanda thought silently. Yet, just as she finished speaking, her smile froze.
Not far away, a strikingly handsome man was running toward them. He was holding Kelly in his arms. "George! Quick! Your sister fell into the river!"
