NovelEnglishChapter 144: Rihannan’s Fall
Everyone started scrambling towards the direction that the ball fell into. Rihannan also hurriedly ran between the trees trying to find the ball. The faster they find the ball, the more they can save time.
As she searched around for a while, she suddenly was met with a turquoise-colored lake. Rihannan admired the wonderfully clear water and walked up to it. Feeling the refreshing cool wind, she stood for a moment to cool her head that was dripping with sweat. She then found the white ball right next to the lake.
“So here it is.”
The ball was teetering on the edge, so Rihannan was glad it didn’t completely fall into it. As the depth of this water is very deep, it would be hard to pick it out of the bottom.
Rihannan picked up the small whistle that is hanging around her neck that’s used to calling the people to come around her area. Just as she was going to blow on it as hard as she can, someone came from behind and pushed her hard as they could.
Splash!

Water rushed into her mouth and nose quickly before she could act. Rihannan struggled with her body to save her life, but her body fell deeper into the water.
As her sight became blurred and dark, she saw someone quickly run away.
‘… Who?’
And with that thought, all her strength gave out. Feeling her body sink deeper into the bottom of the river, Rihannan closed her eyes.
‘I’ve been revived, yet now I end up dying like this.’
Just as this thought crept in her mind, someone pulled her body into their embrace and pulled her straight out of the water.
“Cough!”
As soon as she was pulled out of the water, Rihnnan coughed out water from her lungs first.
After seeing Rihannan cough out some water and begin to breathe properly, Igor finally let out the sigh of relief he was holding back on.
“Damn it!”
She then heard him curse out loudly, which was so unexpected that her eyes widened. She suddenly remembered the moment when he saw her taking medicine and he mistook it as her trying to suicide. Perhaps he thought that was what was happening now as well.
“Your Majesty!”

“My goodness! What happened to you two!? Your Majesty, are you all right!?”
Rihannan nodded her head but didn’t have any energy to properly make a reply. More than anything, she suddenly felt a huge surge of chill run up her body and shivered heavily.
Igor saw Rihannan chattering her teeth as she shook from the cold and swore once again but with a low voice.
Basil brought a blanket from somewhere and handed it to him.
Igor wrapped the blanket around Rihanna’s body, then wrapped her in his arms as he stood up. The most pressing concern is to bring up her body temperature.
“Where is the closest villa from here?”
“It’s a 5-minute walk from here.”
Without any hesitation or any more words, Igor hurriedly started walking towards the direction that Basil was pointing at when Rihannan pulled on Igor’s wet clothes. His purple eyes burned up with rage turned directly to her immediately. Rihannan shivered her body with both cold and fear as she spoke.
“…S-Someone pushed me from behind. That’s why I was in the water…”
