Chapter 1706

Harry stopped for a moment before a thought intruded his brain, and he felt his heart sink. Tossing George aside, he ran as fast as he could—as much as his legs could take him, despite the sharp pain—and ran to the other side. He ran so quickly that he could barely be spotted. A moment later, Harry got to the river. A woman nearby noticed that he was here and urgently pleaded, “Help! The young lady was standing by the river for a very long time before jumping in. I got scared. I can’t swim, and I don’t dare get in there!” Harry looked over and saw— Sonia, floating in the middle of the river, looking as though she had lost all hope in her. D*mn it! What was she thinking?! Harry’s heart sank. Just as he was about to jump in, a small hand grabbed onto his wrist and pulled him back by force. “Harry Cogen! I won’t allow you to save her!” Dior stared at Harry sternly, resolutely, having disposed of her happy-go-lucky disposition. She instead looked dull and incredulous.
