Chapter 252 I Said Nothing
"Who told you to do this? Tell me!"
Christian clenched Zachary's collar tightly. His eyes were crimson, filled with a fierce and unrelenting intensity.
He was engulfed in uncontrollable emotions as if he could destroy everything at any moment.
Zachary had already been tortured to the brink of death. Christian's violent actions forced him to involuntarily tilt his head backward, causing him to collapse on the ground. Then, Zachary fainted.
Christian continued to beat him almost manically, attempting to wake him up. But it seemed more like he was finding an outlet for his own pent-up frustration.
However, Zachary had already been lying on the ground unconsciously. It seemed like he was dying.
Emma had never seen her brother acting like this, and her cry was filled with fear.
She rushed over and grabbed Christian's arm, her hands trembling slightly.
"Chris, stop it. You might kill him!"
Christian attempted to shake her off, but at that moment, the cruise ship hit a massive wave, causing it to tilt suddenly.
He was thrown off balance and collided with the railing. As long as he let go, he could fall into the sea and disappear.
"Let go. She's waiting for you down there with your kid," Christian thought to himself.
He thought so and did exactly the same.
However, just as he was about to let go, Jane, who was standing nearby, suddenly grabbed his arm tightly.
Rescue ships searched for an entire day and night without any results.
Anastasia and Jaxon seemed to have disappeared like a drop of water in the vast ocean.
Emma and Jane stayed by Christian's side, and neither of them had slept.
Emma felt a mixture of guilt and fear as if a sword was hanging over her head, ready to drop at any moment.
She feared that Zachary would wake up and confess everything about Jane, and her own secrets would be exposed. When Emma went to the washroom, she told Jane what she was worried about.
Jane gave her a meaningful look and gently reassured her not to overthink.
Then, she asked Emma to accompany the doctor in checking Christian's condition.
As time passed, Jane's sense of security grew, and what she had done would not be exposed.
As long as Anastasia and Jaxon were dead, no one would suspect her.
Jane took a deep breath, wiped her hands, and then turned to leave, heading in the opposite direction of Emma. Jane arrived at one of the lower cabins, and the bodyguard at the door treated her with a bit more politeness. After all, she had saved Christian when danger struck.
The other bodyguards at the scene were too far away to catch their boss.
Jane smiled faintly, appearing fragile and gentle.
"I'd like to ask Zachary about Ms.

The bodyguards exchanged glances, still somewhat hesitant.
Jane smiled politely, "Don't worry. It won't take long."
Reluctantly, a bodyguard opened the door for her.
Jane thanked him and walked in with a smile.
However, as she closed the door behind her, her smile vanished completely.

After being Zachary had finally become sober again. At this moment, he turned look at the door with cloudy eves.
The moment Jane came in, Zachary shuddered violently.
His cloudy eyes became clear again, and he breathed rapidly. "I... I said nothing!"
