Chapter 1087:
Worn out from the struggle, Gracie began to sob the moment she spotted Ethan, wanting to collapse into his
arms for comfort.
Ethan quickly avoided her, choosing to move behind Brenna instead.
Gracie felt her distress deepen as her head dipped halfway beneath the water. Waldo reacted fast, catching her
around the waist and pulling her upright. “What happened?” he asked, feeling sympathetic toward Gracie.
Gracie gasped, holding onto Waldo for support as she tried to calm herself. Once her breath was steady, she shot
Brenna a furious look. “She tried to drown me!”
Ethan took note of their distance from shore. “Let’s talk about this once we're on land,” he suggested.
Struggling to swim, Gracie managed only a few strokes before letting Waldo drag her the rest of the way.
As soon as they stepped onto solid ground, Gracie’s tears flowed freely. She jabbed her finger at Brenna, her
voice shaking with rage. “I got a leg cramp and started sinking. She sawbut didn’t help. Instead, she pushed
Before anyone else could react, Brenna, furious and feeling betrayed, lashed out and slapped Gracie hard, the

Brenna, not finished, landed a slap on the other side of Gracie’s face. “I truly meant to drown you. Do you really
think you'd still be alive right now?”
Gracie retorted, her voice trembling, “You only failed because | fought back, and Ethan and Waldo showed up in

trouble.”
Waldo felt a sudden chill race down his back. Memories of playing tennis with Brenna flashed in his mind,
especially those moments when her shots had struck him more than once. He had always chalked it up to
chance.
Seeing Brenna hit Gracie with such force now made him question everything. The accuracy and strength in her
actions showed she wasn’t someone to mess with. Gracie’s cheeks turned red and swollen almost instantly after
the slaps. There was no denying Brenna’s fierceness.
Without warning, Brenna grabbed a handful of Gracie’s hair and yanked her back toward the water, dragging her
head under once more.
Caught completely by surprise, Gracie ended up gulping down more water. She thrashed wildly, desperate for
Brenna to let her go, wanting Ethan and Waldo to help her.

Brenna said coldly, “You want proof | could drown you? I'll show everyone what I can really do.”
She held Gracie’s head underwater, refusing to let her cup for air.
Waldo sprang into action, walking over and trying to change Brenna’s mind. “Miss Harper, stop! There's no need
for this. We know you're telling the truth.”
Brenna barely spared him a glance.
