Chapter 216: Grabbing her wrist and pulling her out of the water_1

While talking, Mason King felt a warm touch on the front of his shirt.

He didn't force her to look up and show her tears, but just held her head against his chest, letting her vent.

Suzanne Trent didn't cry for long, but because her face was in such disarray, she didn't look up. She simply leaned into his arms and said stifledly, "I'm sorry, I lost control."

It was as if the embrace of Mason King had the power to gradually calm her down and encompass her with an unfamiliar yet immense sense of security, forcibly pulling her back from the brink of collapse.

She sniffled, and suddenly pushed on his chest until she backed up against the wall. He didn't let her go, but he didn't press on her head anymore either, giving her room to breathe while his eyes landed on her disheveled face, half-covered in blood.
