The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1005 Falling Into The Water

Despite searching for over half an hour, Neera could not locate the old woman. She also had not received any word from the Park family.

Throughout the entire time, she had also not stopped calling Mariah, but she still could not get through.

As each second ticked by, Neera’s anxiety grew. She feared something might have happened to the old woman.

Just then, a cry of surprise came from up ahead.

“Oh, my goodness! Someone, help! An old woman has fallen into the water! Come quickly!”

Old woman?

With a start, Neera whipped around and ran over.

A crowd had already gathered by the lake, huddled along the shore and discussing animatedly.

“Is this old woman mad? I saw her walking into the water as if she was trying to pick up something when I passed by earlier.”

“I saw her, too. What could possibly be more important than her life to the extent of diving into the lake to retrieve it? She would have died if it weren’t for the kind passerby who rescued her, yet she’s still trying to go back in. I wonder what she’s thinking.”

“This old woman seems mentally unstable. I wonder whose family she belongs to. No one seems to be looking after her.”

“Could she have gotten lost? Maybe we should call the police.”

The longer Neera listened the crowd’s remarks, the more anxious she felt.

Shoving her way through, she arrived at the shore and immediately saw the old woman desperately trying to head into the water.
