Chapter 36 Choosing To Leave Her
He looked at her crying, filled with disbelief. Feeling annoyed, he took a few steps back.
“Fine, if you won’t leave, I will,” Benjamin said with a cold voice.
In the face of life and death, affection was worth nothing.
Finished
Be it to compete for favor or seek revenge, one had to first stay alive. After all, how could one accomplish anything if one were dead? He couldn’t fathom what Chloe was truly thinking.
“Ben, are you going to abandon me too?” Chloe looked at him with a sense of despair.
Benjamin was seen resolutely turning around, leaving without so much as a backward glance.
The sea water had already reached his waist, making it difficult for him to move forward. His foot stepped on something. causing him to stumble forward. The incoming wave swept him off his feet, throwing him onto a pile of grass at the side.
J–Gabrielle,
Gabrielle, save me.” At that moment, Benjamin felt fear for the first time.
He kept shouting, but amidst the raging storm, there was no one to respond to him.
At that moment, the image of Gabrielle kept surfacing in his mind. He thought back to the time when she was running errands on the set. That night, a typhoon was raging. He was rushing back to the set when his car was hit by debris, causing his leg to get injured.
After he made a phone call, Gabrielle braved the typhoon to rush over. She forcibly pulled him out of the car and even carried him on her back for a few kilometers, eventually taking him to the clinic.
At that time, the doctor had warned that if he had arrived any later, his leg would have been beyond saving. Consequently, he had a high fever for three days, nearly losing his life.
With those thoughts in mind, Benjamin had an epiphany, his gaze turning toward the direction of Team B. He yearned to see that silhouette appear once more, but unfortunately, Gabrielle didn’t show up..
“Gabrielle, I’m on the verge of death,” Benjamin whispered urgently. “If you don’t come to save me soon, I’m really going to dic
At that moment, he was consumed with an indescribable regret. If only he had been in the same group as Gabrielle, he would have been saved, as she wouldn’t have ignored him in his time of need.
She also wouldn’t just stand there, being overly dramatic and refusing to leave when things went south.

What is Chloe up to? If she wants to get herself killed, she shouldn’t drag Benjamin down with her. Benjamin, you need to run. Get away from that drama queen.
Luckily, Benjamin is smart and decided to abandon her and leave!
That despicable Chloe actually had the audacity to throw a snake at Benjamin’s face. That pissed me off. If Benjamin had been bitten, wouldn’t his face have been ruined?
Is Chloe out of her mind? The sea is flooding in, and the refused to run? Instead, she expects Gabrielle to come to her rescue? Who does she think she is? Then’s something really wrong with her head.
In an instant, the slightly drowsy netizens were jolted awake. They were fervently typing away, launching a barrage of criticisms against Chloe.
News about Chloe once again surged to the top of trending searches.
Chloe stood there in the darkness, filled with self–pity. Her flashlight had run out of battery, and in her panic, she tried to leave, only to find that there was no one outside.
“Why did you abandon me? What good does my death bring you? Are you all out to get me? Everyone keeps singing praises of Gabrielle, but what’s so great about her? Why does everyone flock to her? What gives her the right?” Chloe sobbed quietly,

her eyes rolling back as she promptly fainted.
Darn, she’s not dead, is she?
Under normal circumstances, she’s probably gone.
Finished
People often say that you won’t get into trouble if you don’t invite it. She kept pushing her luck, and everyone started to distance themselves from her. They all managed to dodge a bullet, but she ended up in trouble. It’s obvious she’s nothing but a jine.
Tell Benjamin to stay away from her going forward! Homen with such unstable emotions are terrifying. Luckily. Benjamin was quick to escape
What are they going to do now? Surely Chloe isn’t actually swept out to sea, right? My goodness, did she just lose her life for a variety show?
Everyone was given a scare, their attention completely fixated on the screen. They had even forgotten to type out their
insults.
Even the fans of Chloe fell silent
Some even failed to understand why, when everything went awry, she was still blaming Gabrielle. After all, the storm and the waves were simply forces of nature that had nothing to do with the latter.
Meanwhile, at the Seavers residence in Drocver, a phone call shattered the tranquility of the place.
“Mom, something’s happened.” Zachary jumped out of bed and rushed toward his mother’s bedroom.
Marilyn looked at her son in confusion, her gaze fixed on the phone screen he had handed her. She asked. “What’s happened? Has Gabrielle caused trouble again?”
“The wind had picked up, resulting in a high tide. Chloe has been swept away.” Zachary said in a hoarse voice.
Had it not been for his assistant’s phone call, he wouldn’t have realized that the wind had actually started blowing strongly.
“Chloe has been swept away? What about Ben? How is he doing? Is he supposed to tell Gabrielle to take good care of Chloe? How did things go wrong?” Marilyn’s face was ashen with rage.
That despicable Gabrielle really failed to properly care of my children.
“Ben was also swept away by the sea, his status unknown. But it’s confirmed that Chloe was indeed washed away, a knows what her fate is Zachary said gravely.
It came as a shock that something like that had happened on the very first day of the variety show.
and no one
“That d’mned Gabrielle, even the fortune tellers claimed she is a jinx. We had discarded her, so how did she manage to come back and harm us? If she hadn’t returned, Chloe and Ben would have been fine. It’s all Gabrielle’s fault. If the Zechman family hadn’t been so insistent on wanting the marriage, we wouldn’t have had to bring her back. She’s a curse to our family. Her return this time will only bring about our downfall. If only I had known this back then, I would have ended her life when I found her. If she were dead, she couldn’t have harmed us,” lamented Marilyn, breaking down into uncontrollable sobs,
Watching Chloe’s disheveled figure on the screen, she fainted straight away, her eyes rolling back.
Upon seeing the situation, Zachary swiftly moved forward to support his mother, all the while calling for a doctor.
“Zach, something’s happened to Chloe. Felix rushed in from next door.
Upon overhearing the words just spoken by Marilyn, he said in a low voice, “But, wasn’t it we who brought her back?”
However, this thought only flickered in his mind for a second before it was immediately quashed.
On the deserted island, a violent storm rolled in in the dead of the night, bringing with it torrential rain. The waves were raging, ceaselessly battering the entire island. All the staff sought shelter within the cave of Team B. Fortunately, the cave wast spacious enough, so it wasn’t too cramped.
“The sea water is coming in!” At that moment, someone let out a piercing scream,

exchanged looks of disbelief.
They stared at the entrance of the cave, thinking they must be seeing things.
“Can it really hold back water?” Nadia whispered in disbelief.
Finished
When Gabrielle had mentioned it earlier, she hadn’t taken it seriously. But now, realizing that the seawater truly couldn’t rush in, she and Jennifer exchanged glances, while Brendan also looked over.
His fingertips rested on the side of the suitcase as he looked up at Gabrielle’s profile. She was calmly observing the scene outside, looking neither flustered nor in a panic.
