Enna Clark stumbled as she was dragged, almost falling into the sea. Growing angrier and anxious, she struggled and yelled, âBaron Lawrence, let go of me!â
âWhat are you trying to do? Let go of me!â âBaron Lawrence, let goâ¦â
Soon, the seawater reached her waist.
Enna was truly panicked, using both of her hands to push away forcefully, âAre you crazy? Let go of me!â
The overbearing man finally stopped, released her, and stuffed something into her hand, âTake it.â
Enna lowered her head, looking at the remote control in her palm, and stupidly asked him, âWhat is this?â
The man, who had kept a grim expression, softened his demeanor, put his hands in his pockets, and said elegantly, âYouâll know if you try it.â Enna really didnât know what it was for.
But since he told her to try it, she could only go along and press a button.
As soon as she pressed it, she heard a pleasant cry coming from not too far away. It was like a birdâs, yet also like a humanâs.
âWhatâs that sound?â
âYouâll find out soon.â
And by âsoon,â he really meant just a moment.
Enna saw several dolphins, under the illumination of the setting sun, leaping and swimming toward her from the seaâs surface!
Ennaâs eyes widened in disbelief, âHow could there beâ¦â dolphins!
And they were white dolphins!
She had only seen a dolphin once through the glass at the Aquarium. This was her first time seeing them up close and personal.
Ennaâs excitement couldnât be described with words.
Baron Lawrence looked down at the little womanâs hand clutching his arm, and unconsciously, most of the gloom in his chest dissipated. He hooked his thin lips and asked, âDo you want to get closer?â
âSure.â This time, she was only focused on the dolphins and was no longer scared. She let go of his hand and was about to step forward.
As soon as she let go, a manâs domineering hand grabbed her, âNever mind, youâre so clumsy. Iâll take you there.â
How was she clumsy?!
Enna was speechless and let him lead her a few more steps forward.
As the seawater reached her chest, the dolphins swam closer and were within reach.
âEnna Clark, press the second button on the indicator.â
She did as she was told.
Close by, the dolphins seemed to receive instructions and formed a circle. They began to jump and dance in the azure sea, under the fiery red setting sun. Enna watched, captivated.
As she was dumbfounded, a commanding voice from the man above her said,
âPress the third button.â
Enna finally came to her senses and looked up at him. âBaron Lawrence, did you prepare all this? Did you just drag me over here to watch the dolphins?â
The man, who seemed very impatient, responded, âWhat else did you think? To drag you into the sea and drown you?â
â She shouldnât have asked.
Enna closed her mouth, listened to him, and pressed the third button.
Suddenly, she felt something tickling her leg, as if something in the water was rubbing against it. She instinctively looked down and, in surprise, covered her mouth to keep from screaming.
It was a dolphin!
And not just any dolphin, but a tiny white baby dolphin. The little dolphin raised its head above the water and nudged Ennaâs waist, seemingly signaling something to her.
Thatâs when Enna noticed a necklace hanging around its neck.
âWhat is this?â
âTake it and have a look.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As he had instructed, she removed the necklace from the dolphinâs neck, only to find a small box wrapped around it. She opened the palm-sized brocade box and was instantly amazed..
