“Sannie…”
Vinson knelt beside Arielle and gazed at her worryingly. His voice trembled when he called out her name. Little did he expect they would reunite under such circumstances after not seeing one another for a few days.
At that moment, Arielle coughed a few times, spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and opened her eyes.
She smiled when she saw Vinson’s concerned facial expression. “Don‘t worry. I’m fine…”
Right after Arielle said that, Lorraine, who was being resuscitated, regained consciousness as well.
Hearing Arielle’s reassurance, Vinson gently helped her up and held her tightly in his arms.
If we had not arrived here in time, would they have…
He did not dare to think further.
“Mr. Nightshire, their clothes are completely soaked. We should let them change into a pair of fresh clothes to prevent them from getting sick,” Carlos reminded Vinson after he chased everyone else off the deck.
Only then did Vinson recall Arielle’s clothes were wet. He brought her to the room to get changed. As for Lorraine, she did not have the strength to go to the room and change her clothes, so Carlos instructed the soldier who had performed first aid on her earlier to carry her into the room.
That soldier did not overthink the situation. He heeded the command and carried Lorraine to the room.
However, after placing her on the bed inside the room, he accidentally saw her exposed chest because two buttons on her shirt were unfastened. The soldier was dumbfounded at that instant, and his face immediately turned red.
He turned around and took out a set of clothes from the wardrobe before tossing the garments to her. Then, he uttered while blushing, “Y-You should get changed…”
With that, the soldier hastily left.
