Timothy had always cared for Melody as a sister, but this concern was nothing compared to what he felt

for Suzanna.

An aching pain gnawed at his heart.

As Timothy emerged from the icy lake, he quickly wiped the splashes of water off his face. And he tried to spot Melody's figure along the shore of the Tea Pavilion

He hoped that even if she wasn't as anxiously concerned for him as before, she would at least be standing there, showing that she cared about his well-being- But as he scanned the lake's bank, all he saw were unfamiliar, worried bodyguards, with no sign of Melody. She was gone. She had left without a trace. The lighy that had just flickered in Timothy's eyes dimmed inch by inch, and his heart grew cold.

For a moment, he couldn't tell if the lake water was colder or if his heart was.

"Mr. Mr. Shield? How did you fall into the lake?"

"The water in this lake is deep and cold. Since you can swim, hurry up and come back to the shore."

In this kind of weather, even brief contact with cold water would make anyone shiver.

The bodyguards had initially prepared to jump into the lake to save him, but seeing that he could keep his head above water, they stopped in their tracks. Instead, they began urging Timothy to come back to the shore.

"No... I don't need to."

"I'm looking for something very important to me.

"You don't need to worry about me; I'll come up once I replace it."

As Timothy spoke, the icy water he exhaled carried a chill, causing his lips to tremble and his teeth to chatter from the extreme cold.

The bodyguards on the shore were puzzled by his actions.

They knew that even staying in the cold lake for a short time in this weather could easily lead to a cold or illness.

If he didn't come up soon, his body definitely couldn't withstand it.

So they continued to urge him

"Mr. Shield, nothing is more important than your health.

"Get back on shore. Since you are Mrs. Melody's brother, we definitely can't let you fall sick.

"If you're looking for something, just tell us. We have enough manpower to help you replace it."

Although Frostmere Lake was cold, when it came to work and making money, one cannot be picky about the work tasks assigned. Besides, Timothy was their boss's esteemed guest. They wouldn't dare treat him with anything less than

respect.

With that in mind, the head of the bodyguards was ready to send someone into the lake to help Timothy retrieve his belongings. But Timothy didn't hesitate for a moment and refused their help.

Melody didn't forgive him.

She threw away the piece of red jade that symbolized the reunion of the Shield Family with her own hands.

Therefore, this red jade had to be found by him personally to prove his sincerity in apologizing to Melody.

"I don't need help!"

"Don't send anyone down. I can replace it myself."

If you really want to help, then tell Mel that I sincerely apologize to her, and I will prove my sincerity!

After saying this, Timothy ignored everything else and dove fiercely into Frostmere Lake.

The bone-chilling icy water seemed to pierce through his lungs in an instant, but he endured and continued to dive toward the bottom.

It was almost winter, so the bottom of Frostmere Lake was filled with withered black water plants, and Timothy kept probing downward, oblivious to the rough plants cutting his hands.

He only then started to swim up for air. Each time he was on the verge of suffocation and unable to breathe.

He gripped a handful of water plants in his hand as he swam up for air. He couldn't help but glance toward the shore while taking a breath, but he couldn't replace Melody anywhere. All he saw was the increasing number of bodyguards patrolling around.

Ronald sat on the shore with a timer in hand.

When he saw Timothy come up for air, he quickly pressed the stop button and turned to the head of the bodyguards, saying, "59 seconds.

Remember this number. If Mr. Shield hasn't come up by the next count, go straight down to rescue him.

Next to Ronald, about ten bodyguard's wearing life jackets stood in a line on the shore, poised and ready to rescue Timothy if needed.

It was as if, the moment he got into trouble, a bodyguard would immediately jump into the lake to pull

But he scanned the entire shore and couldn't replace the figure he was looking for.

His heart sank even lower, and he plunged back into Frostmere Lake.

Again and again, he searched the bottom, pushing aside large clumps of rough water plants.

His hands were cut by the plants, leaving terrifying gashes; the blood mixed with the water of Frostmere Lake disappearing as if it had never existed.

The icy water numbed his skin, making him feel as though he had lost all sense of pain.

Timothy frantically searched for the piece of red jade with the shattered patterns

As he came up for air time and again, Melody's kindness toward him replayed in his mind-a kindness. that sought no reply.

He was torturing himself almost in a self-destructive manner.

His eyes grew redder with each shattered hope, until they were completely filled with despair. With every moment of hope lost, the weight of his sorrow only intensified.

In that icy water, he felt the slow encroachment of hopelessness enveloping him. Despair closed in on him little by little, suffocating him.

He felt that his hopeless persistence in enduring the bane-chilling cold while diving down was akin to the way Melody had cared for him in the past.

He was aware that the chances of replaceing the red jade were slim.

Similarly, she understood that it was almost impossible for her to touch his heart and make him care for her like he did for Suzanna

Yet she continued to try desperately, despite the odds.

It hurt so much, yet her determination never wavered.

Time passed second by second, and Timothy felt his nerves tense, his eyes almost bulging with strain.

Still, there was no sign of Melody on the shore.

He grew increasingly fangued, and his strength to dive birther diminished with time...

"Mel Mel, I know I was wrong. I really do

He asked himself in agony, as if questioning his past self about why he had hurt Melody like that.

But in the end, no one could replace the e answer

Alfred stood on the shore, glancing at Ronald and thenat Timothy, who was thrashing around in the water. He questioned, "Ronald, tell me the truth-does my dad have a hidden treasure trove at the botto 14-29 Wed, No

of the lake?"

"Also, is my dad aware that Timothy is brazenly trying to loot his treasure?"

Both Ronald and the bodyguards were speechless at his words.
