The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2218

"Athena, can't you leave him? I genuinely feel that you two aren't suitable for each other. I don't want to stand by and watch you get deceived. You're only going to end up getting hurt by him," said Hailey with a bitter smile.

The argument between Hailey and Athena became more intense. They deliberately chose the beach where they had grown up together to have a serious conversation about Dieter.

The beach used to be their secret base, but a few days ago, Hailey found out that Athena had already brought Dieter there. Thus, the significance was lost.

"Have you forgotten what this place means to us? When we first discovered this secret base, we promised to be best friends forever. All that, and you want to leave for that man?" asked Hailey.

Athena kept shaking her head, constantly seeking a balance between friendship and love. She could not understand why Hailey was always so angry. After all, she had found a man she liked, so why was Hailey not happy for her?

More importantly, she never thought of leaving Hailey behind and running away with Dieter.

"Hailey, what are you afraid of? Why do you always think I'm so eager to leave you? That thought never ever crossed my mind. You used to believe everything I said, so why don't you believe me now? Hailey, is it that I've changed or you have?"

Athena maintained her composure, but in Hailey's eyes, it seemed like she was being unreasonable.

Hailey hated how Athena did not take her anger seriously at all, and that she did not even try to understand where she was coming from. Basically, Athena wanted to have both friendship and love at the same time.

The two continued to argue, completely forgetting that the tide was rising. They happened to be standing in a place that would usually be washed over by waves.

When Athena finally looked down and saw her wet ankles, she realized it was already too late.

"Quick! We need to hurry back to the shore-"

Athena grabbed Hailey's hand and ran toward the shore. However, Hailey was too blinded by anger to follow her friend's advice. She forcefully shook off Athena's hand. "Why bother whether I live or die if all you care about is that stupid man?" screamed Hailey.

Alarm bells rang in Athena's mind. She never imagined that her friend had become so stubborn. How could she just watch Hailey walk into the deep sea like that? They had grown up by the seaside, and the rising tide was no joking matter. The sea could easily sweep them away. They could lose their lives if they did not leave! "Go back quickly!"

Athena did not let go of her tight grip on Hailey's wrist. However, Hailey's anger surged, and she used even greater force to shake off Athena's hand.

In the end, Athena was forcefully thrown into the sea.

"Ah-"

Melody could not swim. Thus, Shaun had planned to use a stunt double for this scene. However, no matter how the editing was done, the stunt double falling into the sea did not look natural enough, since her acting could not match Melody's.

Not only could Melody not swim, but she also had a slight fear of water. She had an urge to escape as soon as her whole body was immersed in the water. She started to panic when someone pressed her down, trying to keep her underwater for a longer period.

"Huh, I can't believe you're using a stunt double. Weren't you the one who always professes you'd do anything for the sake of making sure the movie comes out well? Well, I guess you were just lying," taunted Tracy as she brushed past Melody.

Tracy did not bother to lower her volume, so both Melody and her assistant heard her.
