Chapter: 1062
Someone pulled her to the shore and away from the water. She wanted to say “thank you" to the woman who saved her, but it was too late.
The motorboat had driven away.
Once she had recovered, she contacted the people of the motorboat club to find her benefactor. At the beginning, many people came to her and pretended to be the one that saved her, but they were all fake.
She vividly recalled seeing a crescent-shaped birthmark on the back of the neck of the person who saved her. She saw it that day when she was holding on to the woman.
She searched and searched for years, but couldn't find this CC who saved her.
However, she still went to watch every motorboat race. Just in case they came across each other sometime.
After that incident, she became scared of water.
A few months ago, when she saw Claudia in the Dreskin family's house, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the mark on the back of her neck. As soon as she saw that crescent birthmark, she had a hunch.
She asked her friends to look into Claudia. It wasn't very difficult to find out if Claudia could ride a motorboat. Of course, Claudia concealed it well, but once Zaria had a hunch about something, she would always find the truth.
However, she had to be a hundred percent certain that it was indeed Claudia who saved her that day before she said anything. So, she fought down her fear of water that night and jumped into the swimming pool.
Sure enough, Claudia jumped into the water to save her. That was when Zaria knew for sure. Claudia was the one that saved her at sea all those years ago.
She had finally found her benefactor.
Zaria's words jogged Claudia's memory.
It had happened so long ago that she had forgotten all about it.
After the competition that day, she was supposed to leave after the award ceremony, but the organizers asked them to record a performance video.
Having won the first place, she was the first to be recorded.
She was ready to leave after they finished with her. Staying much longer increased the risks of her mask being taken off.
However, before she could get away, Amalia said she wanted to take a short video of her. She couldn't refuse. So, she drove the motorboat to the other side and performed for Amalia's video.
Finally, she could leave. However, the shouts of someone on the shore drew her attention.
The sun was already setting, so she couldn't see clearly from a distance. However, when she looked in the direction of the sound, she saw someone standing on the reef.
The tide had already risen at this time, and the reef was about to be submerged. Without a second's thought, Claudia turned the motorboat and drove towards the reef.
Her rescue plan was to take the person to the shore, but the person fell into the sea before she could get to her.
If she herself hadn't worn the protective outfit for the sea, or driven the motorboat, she honestly didn't think she would have had the courage to jump into the water to save her.
Actually, looking back now, it could all be fate. At the same time that Zaria was in trouble, she was driving her motorboat and got there in time before Zaria drowned for long. Luckily, Zaria's inflated dress prevented her from sinking immediately.
