He looked at the floating and sinking Violet in the man made lake , with only a sense of relief in his heart , without a trace of pity . Save me … I couldnt swim ! Please , I beg you ! Spare me , I truly know I was wrong ! She struggled continuously , desperately seeking help . Deven sneered contemptuously and coldly said , Enough , stop pretending , you can swim ! You wouldnt think that just because you learned Lilyana , we would feel sorry for you , would you ? Branden and Braxton also clearly seemed indifferent , showing no intention of saving her .
