Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 128

Madeline stood there with her trembling legs. She was so frightened that her face turned as pale as a paper.

She looked like a dying patient that time. It seemed like there was no blood flushed on her face.

Maggie and Zabrina beside her were crying; they were very scared. Wendy was always the only one who remained calm among them. But at the moment, she was shocked and froze in one place as if she turned into a rock. She just stood there without any reactions.

Some of the crew remained on the shore while the others jumped into the sea to rescue. The crew members that were on the shore held their breath and looked at the direction where Zed swam.

One second, ten seconds, twenty seconds and a few seconds more had passed... But no one got out of the sea.

Finally, someone got out of the water a few moments later.

It was Zed! The director instructed all the crew members that was on the shore to help Zed immediately. He saw that Zed was struggling to swim while carrying Jean towards the shore.

The director felt more anxious when she saw Jean. Then, he helped and lifted Jean towards shore. But he found out that her eyes were closed. Aside from that, her face was also extremely pale.

At the sight of that, the crew took a deep breath. It seemed that someone's life would be lost that day.

Madeline was so scared to see that Jean was dying. She couldn't believe what happened to Jean. She leaned against her husband and started to cry.

"Jean, Jean!" Zed hurriedly and loudly called her name. His heart started to panic when he saw Jean didn't respond.

The director was standing beside Zed. He wiped the sweat on his face and said, "The ambulance is coming over. They would arrive soon."

She's not going to make it!

Zed immediately performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation and chest compression to her. He did it for about one minute, yet nothing still happened.

Jean was lying there helplessly. It looked like she would not breathe anymore.

Zed felt that his heart was torn apart that time. His heart was filled with regrets. Then, he said to himself, 'Why did I force her to be part of this program?

If Jean would be gone, then what do I need the company for? It will be all meaningless.'

"Wake up! Wake up!" He tried to shake her. He was acting like he was insane.

Other people stood aside with a hint of grief on their faces. Jean's assistant even cried when she saw Jean that was almost dead. Everyone kept silent when they saw the situation.

Ahem, ahem… Ughh…

The sound of cough shocked everyone. They were all shocked when they saw what happened.

Jean coughed for a few times and spit out a lot of sea water. She could hardly open her eyes. She felt like her body was pressed by a heavy stone; she could barely breathe.

She was dazzled when she saw that Zed was holding her in fear. Then she asked, "What's… What's wrong with you?"

Zed was confused for a few seconds. Then he delightfully grabbed Jean with his arms. He held her head with his hand and said, "Don't you ever leave without asking my permission!"

"What?" She asked in an extremely weak voice. The next second, she passed out.

In the hospital, The crowd was standing outside the emergency room and waited anxiously.

An hour later, the light of the emergency room went out outside the door. The doctor stepped out from the room and removed his mask.

"Doctor, how is she? Is she fine?" Zed anxiously asked.

The doctor smiled with a mellow face and answered, "The patient is alright now. But she has to be taken good care of. If not, there might be some corollary effects since she had been drowned in the water for too long. She was so lucky to be alive.

But her brain was heavily out of oxygen. So if she hadn't been sent here immediately, she would have been dead. Though her condition is fine now, she might be still in a coma for a few days... Or even a week."
