Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1899

While he was out jogging with his teammates, Marin unexpectedly witnessed a man jump into the river in an apparent suicide attempt.

Being a strong swimmer, Marin had his teammates call for backup while he immediately dove into the water to rescue the man.

However, as soon as he reached the man, he realized the situation was much worse than he had imagined—the man wasn't just trying to end his own life; he was trying to drag Marin down with him.

Marin was locked in the man's grasp, with the stranger desperately pressing his head underwater. Despite his excellent swimming skills, Marin couldn't fight the man off and found himself repeatedly shoved under the water.

As he struggled, he caught a glimpse of the man's pained and twisted expression, and a wave of despair washed over him.

He had been careless. Forrest had warned him not to go into the water alone…

Just as Marin thought he was about to be dragged to his death by the suicidal man, he suddenly felt the talisman on his chest grow unbearably hot. The pressure from the man's grip loosened, and a loud splash rang near his ear.

It was his teammate, who had somehow managed to get into the water to help, even though he was supposed to stay on the shore.

The teammate swam up to them without hesitation, yanked the man's hand off Marin, and twisted it violently. With his other hand, he targeted key pressure points on the man's body.

The man, determined to drag Marin down with him, immediately loosened his grip. Together with another teammate who had arrived just in time, they managed to drag the man to the shore.

They couldn't just stand by and watch someone die, as it was their duty to save lives.

Once the man was alive, though, he would have to face the consequences of his actions, likely locked up for attempted murder.

On the shore, Marin coughed uncontrollably, still shaken by the encounter. His gaze lingered on the suicidal man who was being dragged away by the captain.

Although he had been on many rescue missions, this was the first time he had personally encountered a suicidal person trying to take someone else down with them.

He had heard of such twisted cases before, but experiencing it firsthand was an entirely different feeling.

Feeling the weight of his near-death experience, he couldn't help but express his gratitude to his teammate.
